Best Appealing Poems

For whom the bell tolls
this vibrato of iron
an ancient message
steeped in holy tradition
hostilities at an end.

A lemony drink that is mellow
Alcohol sugar zest yellow
Unlike its fruit tree
It's said with a long e
In Sorrento they make limoncello

I witness both
The emergence of silence
And, its dilution in action
I go to sea side
After tide, I feel 
The shore is gripped by silence
Often I noticed for a few minutes
Silence grips the street
After a dead body is carried for cremation
You know
Each time I try to draw...

There was a time when I was hopeful
When the world seems to be a place joyful
Living this life was very delightful
Inspite of the illness that was so painful

I fooled myself to believing that I'm wanted
When the truth is I am not really needed
I told her...

Amidst this world composed of zeroes and ones, one may find nothing but fake feelings.
When in doubt, look for reason, when lost and don't know where reason is, seek for the looking glass. For it does not lie.

When convinced that out there are that special...

I cannot find my contest poem
(It would have been a first place winner)
Alas, my first thoughts I cannot show em!

I scrawled down notes when preparing dinner -
perchance they fell in Tiddles litter tray
as my loose leaf pad is so much thinner.

If I locate my lines...

So intriguing
You're  appealing
To much beauty  in 
One so seductive  aah yes
A loveliness tie me
With lovely laces like you do.
I am over flowing with 
Excitement 
My senses  are  keen this
Sugar is mean  to sweet,
To  sweet  I've never ...

Ring in the spring,
The bluebells bob
As gentle breezes blow. 
We breathe a sigh
As we know now
There’s no more winter snow. 

The vibrant hue
Against the green
Bathes hillsides regal blue. 
Announcing to
The countryside
That summer will ensue....

Romance and the richness of pain pose on the horizon before myself as a young 
girl
Become embedded in my own discourse;  I seek them and reject them, I cannot 
Know them.  
They are intangible
Rarely felt in the everyday

Inevitable aching and fear occupy my...

No Feeling and Not Appealing

I had to hurry up and write
this down before I forgot this.


When I never show any of my feeling;
What I write and say is not appealing;
While rambling,
Was gambling,
On you disturbed hitting head on ceiling.

Nells has no idea how appealing she is.
Not caring about her appearance like other girls.
She throws on a tribal cat suit and lies in a plastic lounger
Reading a stack of scientific journals.
When she gets up and walks around men notice her curves.
And her bouncy attitude,...

I can feel the sun warming my body and the universe telling me that it is sorry, the clouds are rolling by and the burden is lifted from the sky. The traffic is rolling and the birds are signing the people are dancing to the...

Life full of pardons
The day my soul new pleasure
Forgiveness a treasure
A clemency smiles
Appealing sentencing sympathy appealing

Triangle if centered;
twenty syllables a
thought complete; appealing
to the emotions deep.
Takes shape as syllables
to increase or decrease;
they state an abstract thought.

A silent movie 
Maybe silent realistically
Or not silent metaphorically
Silent
Because not verbal
Not silent 
Because with movements
Not silent
Because appealing
Silent 
Because there are no immediate actions
And without man's sympathy
Response and cooperation
A silent story 
May eventually die silently...
