Premium Member Life's a Beauteous Dream
I dreamt a dream that renewed kindred memories
Rekindling past passions of moonlit love-themes,
Enamoring love-embers blooming heartfelt longings,
Crooning hints-romantic~ life’s a beauteous dream;

When merrily you enthralled me in springs of yore
Fetching yesteryears’ treasured keepsakes to fore
Lauding pages of albums seasons bygone adored
Reviving ardent allure, questing for...

Premium Member Gentle Summer Rain
She writes about Fall's beauty in the rain 
The falling raindrops' dance ascribing thence 
Bespoken verse that lightens her refrain 
before the time they met - her steps commence. 

She listens to the soft and rhythmic thrum, 
her love turned to escape and cloudy string...

Premium Member Paint Us As We Are
Thinking of you I’m painting of love
Ascribing endearing brushstrokes
Ambivalent of my reach to inform
As I adumbrate upon soul’s canvas

Come build this portrait with me
Emblazon those empty spaces
Color them boldly as you please
Embolden contours of your wishes

And when your heartbeats speak
Indulge them in enamored feelings
Savoring love’s...

Crest of Melodious Words
Such melodious words of impress
  Alluding to a lady magistrate
    Like an emblem of blind justice
       Such melodious words of impress

Ascribing to social illness 
  Weakening on someone’s taste
    Such melodious...

Unprepared
Even when our fathers were not there
They penned the edicts on their behalf
And decreed how the people should live
So, like sheep we followed their lead
Hoping for fields of lush pasture
Full of dreams where honey drips
Noble lies told on the eve of liberation
From the strangers’ imperialism...

Tomorrow's Flavor Today
The years went by approaching an end
Time had lost its savor still in search of a meaning
Distance faded away closely producing vivid streaks
Marking the end of the beginning and the beginning of the end
Hope tried to communicate in signals through the movement of whisking feathers...

With God ,Not With Them Ii
Morning knocks on us
As I commingle with him,
My mentor ,with dread of poetic locks
With God, not of them became parts
For my thoughts still shrouded of secrecy.

Of no count are them
Drinking from the calabash of ignorance
Ascribing artificial misery of man to God
Dreaming of it a time...

Premium Member Going With the Flow
Yes, “going with the flow” has found new meaning on Hawaii’s coast
The lava there from many fissures covers earth like jam on toast
Though driven just by gravity as soon as it has found release
It’s path remains a tortured trail while searching for another peace.

In rush...

How Did It Get This Bad
How did it get this bad!
Siblings quarreling and squabbling over inheritance 
Bickering over who is better and more successful;
Killing each other

How did it get this bad!
Senior citizens treated with disdain, loathe and contempt
By younger folks
Empathy and sense of affection gone with the advent of civility

How...

Premium Member Mad - Question Mark
Mad?

Be glad! You have your life to live; there’s poetry to share,
as evolution gives us words, and some have minds that hear.
Accoutrements can touch the hearts of strangers (though we fear
a countenance that’s new to us). Is strangeness fault or charm?
A risk exists (in sought...

Come to me my darling
Let my kiss your face
And shower you with lilacs
Too many for a vase

I love the person who you are
I long to hold you tight 
To carry you when you are tired
To sing to you goodnight

To take your burdens as my own...

Hindsight Always Equals 20 20
Hindsight always equals 20/20

Acuity absent amidst domestic turmoil,
passage of time nsync with diminished
pitched family emotional battles relieves
blinded insight allowing, enabling, and
providing painful awareness incumbent

to mourn the absent paternal maturity, I
reach out with genuine non petty heart
ache aware impact loosed mismanaging
attentive can never be expunged, nor...

Perspective
Is the glass half full or half empty

I watched you walk away  but I never saw your tears I only saw mine .
All I see is me..my pain.. you telling me bye
