Best Arrived Poems

Clap your hands, sing with joy for warm spring is here.
Swallows are the first to arrive now the sky is clear,
Purple Martins perform aerial acrobatics
To snap up flying insects as is their tactics.
Chickadee small and pretty songbirds enthral
But the goldfinch is the most beautiful of...

they're here!
the saucers I've waited for...
It's hard to believe...
we've waited so long!

with a sense of wonder,
and a sense of joy...
at their arrival....
oh boy!...oh boy!...

yes, this seems to be
a red-letter day..
I'm left with only...
one more thing to say...

when, just when, 
will we wait,
till kittens turn to...

She kissed her dead son's face
cold,pale,white and lifeless,
then started talking to him
as if he was alive,
or her words would revive
him,from his deep sleep it seemed;
her blank vision looking
past this cruel scorching
moment,for a fading dream.

The sun still sleeps

as a dark horizon waits

for the 
light of its morning

to illumine its world in beauty,

when I see your eyes open
and realize

mine has arrived first...

Blue

Small

Our child

Our wee girl

Too small to draw breath

She wanted our love so dearly

Could not wait to know us and greet this glorious world

Yet she arrived early, and now sleeps eternal in the security of your arms

Autumn steps in as summer’s bright shine glimmers and flee,
After the heat begins to abate, autumn arrives as nature’s gift.
The soft melody of the leaves and breeze fills me with glee.

The season comes to sweeten with a beautifully painted face.
From green to golden sheen, the...

Your Day Has Arrived

With fire in my belly;
And ice in my veins.
I lift up my voice to say;
We Shall Remain!

Never to surrender;
To another's dismay.
Which is why my peoples shout;
We Live To Fight Another Day!

Rise up my peoples;
Set this world a blaze.
With the courage of your...

Slipping through cracks in the clouds
snowflakes confetti the sky
like tufts of down tumbling down.

Riding on a chilly breeze,
twirling and swirling snowflakes
begin carpeting the ground.

Crowned the Queen of ice and snow,
radiant in Her beauty;
Winter silently arrived.

Consumed by flames of color
fueled by Autumn's pageant;
not a single leaf...

Hallowed The Halls of Antiquity
Frail The Parchment of History
When a Host of Quills Touched Destiny
And Rose a Peoples of Democracy

Hail sayeth to MAN not King?
Immortal Freedom When it Rings!
Freshly minted or neatly Forged!
No Queen or Earl or English Lord!

Across an Empire -England Stamped
With Sword and...

Insidious, insipid, id-inebriated imbeciles
incite impetus into inevitable immolation.

Bombast, bluster and bluff: blunt batons of barbarian bullies;
backwards behaviour blackballs baronial breed's burdens and bonds.

Weasely, willy-waving warmongers wage wanton war of words
without wit, wisdom or worldliness, whilst we weakly watch and wait.

Regrettable, repugnant reprobates ravage refined realms...

Winter has left, spring has arrived;
day has the same duration of night,
this astronomical event is too unique:
earth orbiting sun is utterly mystique.
a change of season is announced;
swallows engage in acrobatic flight!

Winter was only a bale of unhappy memories, 
melting snow creates brooks that quickly flow;
look...

I will “seek and find,” and not wait any longer.
I am coming to The Father
I am calling a new beginning ,
for a new opportunity, 
No longer sinning, I’m starting a new beginning
Moving on, moving on now I’m stronger, I am strong
Moving from something and from...

The cypresses' leaves are vibrant and green, summer refuses
to leave as swallows wait for cold winds to depart; 
chilly rain keeps all warblers in their nests hidden from intruders!


Yesterday's sun rays were pleasant to the senses of the dreamy mind
as we sat on the bench...

LJH 28/9/12
Autumn has arrived

As the sun sets, lower in the sky
Summer, gently wave’s goodbye

Swirling leaves, changing colour to the scene
Gradually evolving, to golden from green

Wiser are the trees, their branches all a glow
Shedding, for later, seeds to ground will sow

The scent of autumn, earthy in...
