Best Ambience Poems
A crackling sound as something splits off and falls further in.
A popping
A glimmer of yellow
We sit mesmerized, staring not at the fire, but at our friends
who have turned into darkened shadows
The trees have gone gray, and the day is cooler now.
our host has brought plaid blankets down from the house.
The teenagers have eaten their fill of s’mores.
They retire to a TV set somewhere to share stories not for our ears.
We care not.
The ghosts of eagerness urge us to share our most hidden stories.
They begin arriving little by little.
Family stories which have never been told
until this campfire
They continue until the embers turn gray.
Stories we will all remember, due to their newness
and the magical ambience of the night.
A flavorous scent
Permeated today
A fruity smell
That brought in full play.
A feeling of mirth.
A sprinkle of joy.
A grandma who knows
The love of a boy.
Anticipating
A wonderful day.
I began to dance.
My troubles away.
A flavorous scent.
Permeated the day.
A fruity smell
That brought in full play.
--The Howling Wind and a Camel’s Hump--
Considering that all life’s matters are not special of but ordinary things,
surviving is just another perspective on life. I unloaded the weight of life nonchalantly, on the roadside.
The load I carried with wobbling legs, as if it’s my destiny,
without grumbling; though it’s back-breaking because life
is a desert, the load looks unattractive and burdensome like
a hump of a camel, it was the vital element to sustain my life.
In the desert,
when a camel crosses leaving trails in the sand hills
you hear the unpleasant, even fearful, sigh of a vindictive
spirit pulling their heads out of the sand; and a deep sigh echoes
in the very end, of a bottomless cave and returns with a dreadful howl
the air is incapable of handling the scorching sun it rises and turns into
a turbulent wind become insane
the passing wind, really is not moving,
a giant goes with wide stride leaving the sound of
his vigorous heart beat. Though he is, in fact, not a living body
when the full harsh sound of brutally tortured spirits
pile up from the underworld layer after layers of groans
the camel lays down its yolk and kneels to pray, with the setting sun,
the stars fall on the sands to soothe the wandering-moaning spirits
in the desert,
when the sand cools off, rather than a burden of life,
it becomes a wall of oblivion and puts every soul in it, to sleep;
in such desert,
when absolute tranquility casts her anchor,
even hearts stop to beat; the dream of the camel flees from
the world of suffering and goes drifting on the water, free from
all thoughts and ideas.
Chill shadow fall covering gray
Spark ember glow in the distance
Field reverberate muffled bray
Soft cool silk silent ambience
Earthward lonesome darken path lay
Veil on penchant earth's fluorescence
Two romantical waltz their way
Full laughter and lost innocence
Whereas a billion stars astray
Soft cool silk silent ambience

I was determined to catch your insight.
I never let you trip over a braking mistake.
My affection for you resembles candlelight.
However, it's too noisy to hear a voice sake.
I never let you trip over a braking mistake.
When held, it must look like a pinless bomb.
However, it's too noisy to hear a voice sake.
Spread arms as searing wildly with aplomb.
When held, it must look like a pinless bomb.
Who wouldn't be scared around it anyway?
Spread arms as searing wildly with aplomb.
To apply my inner voice sparingly and sway.
Who wouldn't be scared around it anyway?
I don't punctuate my emotions like poets.
To apply my inner voice sparingly and sway.
Which love stories conclude in snow huts?
I don't punctuate my emotions like poets.
Show me your worst side and scary past.
Which love stories conclude in snow huts?
I can cure your buried pain; it will heal fast.
Show me your worst side and scary past.
Don't chafe at it—love will lead you free.
I can cure your buried pain; it will heal fast.
I'll bear the choices your heart dictates to me.

All is fair in love and war
Buzz flavours cheer as wonder streams,
Reach for a poise from deeper shores;
Ignite most clear the vivid dream,
Gather firm choice to treasure more;
Hear how joy rhymes love's precious show,
Truth has a way to honour cheer.
Attest good times in fragrant flow,
Make happy play as wit draws near;
Blossom prime gifts that add fond spice,
Intuit a touch that inspires more;
Endow and lift lovely and nice,
Note nimble nudge that floods grand stores;
Calm ambience hurls that sparkle bright,
Embrace the world where love puts right.

Feel how you feel when times seem tough,
Etch your sure form that knows just how;
Ink a clear deal that bears the rough,
Sense a calm norm that helps you now;
Treat your heart well with glimpse of hope,
Yes you can be that fragrance sure.
Ask to dare dwell on faith for scope,
Make what you see in vision pure;
Brave each frontier where mind meets heart,
Indulge love's quest as truth sparks clear;
Ease odd barriers with lively art,
Nurture true zest that spurs fine cheer;
Choice gathers more of poise that grows,
Effort moves store as voice now shows.

Rare blend of grace
Bright shining face
Vibing the place.
without doubt the sea
hued embellished blue carpet
don't trample the view
Feel and feel sad thinking,
Dare to face life with fine swing.
Feel each broken feeling,
Dare to hurt to find healing.
Feel each hidden fear here,
Dare to be afraid yet steer.
Feel the mad deep dark thoughts,
Dare to let cleansing light blot.
Feel each savvy pain come,
Dare to see things as love sums.
Feel the tragic feelings,
Dare to bear with suffering.
Feel now bitter mix sad,
Dare to rise and fall with mad.
Feel each broken dream drip,
Dare to go on dreaming trips.
Feel that fuzzy logic,
Dare to embrace dynamic.
Feel the lost and found touch,
Dare to live and bear no grudge.
Feel and feel each feeling,
Dare to live love revealing.

Align ample air
Air that fits fare
Fare that sweeps care
Apt as a breeze
Breeze in a sneeze
Sneeze that brings ease
Ask to be calm
Calm that spreads balm
Balm that words psalm

Wonder wakes well
Time truly tells
Wander wise wealth
Heap happy health
Apt ambience ask
Bright blossoms bask
Seek spacious say
Draft dazzling day
Make mindset move
Grandeur gifts grooves
Lust lingers late
Face funny fate
Be beyond blame
Note naughty name
Stretch simple sounds
Glimpse gracious grounds
Ask aptly ask
Bright blessings bask

Under the intense fog, blurry regime of the city street
Over the condense hope, starry night on the sky fleet
