Best Atlantis Poems

~ATLANTIS~   Featuring:) Kelly Deschler

-------
Can't be re-written by the Gods
The land and sands of time'
Destroyed by the fire of Poseidon's curse 
Atlantis swallowed by: Earth

In one day and one night
Peaceful existence met its end
Built on a volcano, now surrounded by ancient rippled tears
Lava stripped apart the rich and glorious empire
Enriched by Engineers and Architects...

Atlantis Lives

Transformed by time/ yet held in our hearts/
The truth we seek to be revealed by those who
Travelled before our time/ with hope preserved
In tomes unread/the ancient ones did tell of precious
Dreams and values deemed a right for all that passed 
this way/shall once more see what poets knew to be 
held fast in living...

ATLANTIS BOUND  (for Carolyn)

Why this urge to dream?
Why this boundless    circular    empty place in mind?
A need to shut one’s eyes?

Atlantis bound?
Donnellys    and    Cayces?
That great oceanic round?

As surely as life exists
As surely as mind’s invention
The hollow shall be filled

Where was nothing before
Those gadzillions...

Ubar, you are elusive and evasive.
Pushing the sands of time toward other places
Hiding in the bowels of your comfortable spot
Deep within the stomach of the southern Arabian sands

Wabar, you are secretive and secluded
Choosing to linger below the surface, 
Almost impossible to discover,
Gloating in your ethereal resting place.

Iram, you are intriguing and enticing
Keeping yourself alive in...

Destroyed by the fire of Poseidon's curse

Lava stripped apart the rich and glorious empire
Enriched by engineers and architects whom...

ATLANTIS - The Lost Continent

There once was a fifth continent, known as Atlantis. Is it fact 
or fiction ? Well that is for everyone to decide. In the
early beginning of modern times there was Atlantis, an
advanced civilisation, that had moonstone crystals and used
them for suppling heat for everyone, larger crystals had the 
power to destroy...

In Neptune’s lair
she rests eternal.
The legacy of failure
chipped into her stone facade.
Plato knew her, as a child and 
depicted her visage in words.

Like the south, 
she will rise again 
or so said Cayce.
From a silvery abyss
she will resurface…
the queen of an ancient Republic.

The story of her children,
will not be forever lost.
From black oil and radiation,
she...

Unlike a sunken ship at sea.
Legend speaks the lost tales of 
Atlantis
Supernatural, voices from the deep,
Devil's triangle

I wrote this purely on my gut feeling
based on the expression of an 
example below


like a drunk asleep at a party.
Ancient
Greek — the language seemed to be
made for Sapphics,
not a worry; anyone used to English
finds it a bastard....

Far beneath fathom's kept, where the dead men,
Dare not speak of forgotten kingdom's hidden deep,
Under waves chilling currents, in the aquatic blues,
 Burial zone.
Behind seaweeds thickened greenery, and corals
 Reefs decorative stealth.
An ancient mystery's truth lies undiscovered,
Pull back times curtain reveal a world turned up,
Side down.
Once a utopian society lived, bathed in the
 Warmth of...

THIS LIFE OF MANY ILLUSIONS,

DILUTION OF TRUTH,

AND HOLOGRAM DECEPTION.

THE TRIUMPH AND TRAGEDY

OF EXPERIENCE AND

THE DUALITY OF THIS DIMENSION,

LEAD US WONDERING IF WE WILL

FIND OUR WAY TO TRUTH.

WHAT IS BEYOND SPACE AND TIME?

OUR TRUE IDENTITY LIES BEYOND THE 

CONSTRAINTS OF THIS HOLOGRAPHIC UNIVERSE.

WE WILL FIND OUR WAY OUT OF THE 

MANIPULATION MAZE,

CHANGE OUR BEHAVIORS,

AND EMBRACE LIFE...

At the Atlantis Resort in the Bahamas,
Souper poets are drinking Bahama Mamas.

Casino games are set aside every night
as Soupers take the stage to read poems they write.

Ladies dress up as mermaids and men as sailors,
not outfits that can be found at Lord and Taylor’s.
 
With many applause breaks and standing ovations,
attendees are inspired to share...

ATLANTIS RISES 

After 7000 years    old Atlantis    alluva sudden come up yesterday
Popped up – skinny end first – like a cork
No time ta think o’ displaced water    tidal waves    all that stuff
Shot up    not a periscope o’ warnin’  ...

Before the inchoative formation of bygone days, before time's transposing and 
infantile sands,
Before the engulfing deluge covered our quixotic shores,
Whence the awakened were dreamers bestriding upon night's fuliginous sands, 
Too late did our vaticinators previse deluded by  knowledge's eldritch doors,

Of Lemuria and Mu, once reigning over the eastern climes,
As the deceitful dancers sway to...

Quick snap of my heels and through a time warp I fell
To a place that Plato had written about so well
In a lost continent I emerged safe and sound
Gilded architecture and pyramids did surround

Now having traveled back more than ten thousand years
My request was granted as my eyes filled with tears.
For I knew the grandeur...

Searching for Atlantis


	Searching for the Lost City of Atlantis
The depths of the seas near the stinging mantis
	Down, down in the caverns of the oceans
There is a city uncharted that’s in shear e motion
	A place where people know not of hate
But of eminent, trustworthiness of a live fate
	Posidon”s people and fish live together
They’ve learned in peace...
