Best Attaches Poems
Poet To Poet
Intimate musings are part of a poet's repertoire;
flights of introspection and reflections,
savored more when shared with kindred spirits
A poet can speak to another poet
with an intrinsic mutual understanding
that our words comes from deep in our heart
Words are the currency of our soul
Thus, I must speak...

Dramatic Monologue
The Maturing OrchidHe meandered lonely
just a senior citizen
trawling the pathways of his computer,
when suddenly one day in a flash
an enchanting name jumped from the screen
into his unadjusted head,
whilst still in a daze
he had cut copied and pasted,
the delete key not an option
when sent to his favourites.
Then like...

Recollections From the Golden Cree IiPast unconcerned hens that distractedly
Scratch
Under frowning protestations from the
Sheltered Lee;
Into the cloaked shadows lain across the
Cobbled courtyard,
Behind which squats the twisted form of
The old brooding, arthritic apple tree.
Past the neat little cow-byre
Hosed and fastidiously scrubbed out twice
A day
With a fine...

Rhyme
Impossible To SeverFeelings surface, carried by an emotional tide.
And love washes over us as
refreshing as a spring rain;
with its promise of renewal.
Trust helps erase the scars of yesterday,
allowing us to put aside past pains;
and overcome inhibitions.
A collaboration of heart and soul
breathes life into our fantasy dreams;
as we...

V Canto Divine Comedy Translation First PartSo from first circle started the descent
Down to the second, which contains less
And more pain, stinging to a great extent.
There the horrible Minòs growls giving stress:
The faults examines right to entry close:
Judges and sends according to his guess.
I tell that when the bad soul in...

Ode To a Wretched Robot“You meddling mechanical moron,
you’ve ruined everything,
the thingamabob is running amok,
can’t you hear the alarm bells ring?
You clinking, clanking cretin,
you demented digital dunce,
you never do what I tell you,
and I’ve warned you more than once.
You’re a slew of silly circuits,
you’re an electronic idiot too,
you’re a tin-plated...

Light Verse
BloodstreamNothing compares to your hands
I bathe in your warmth
the hollow of your armpit
is my shelter...
It cannot be helped
we can't be anywhere
except together...
I'd like to paint you
I choose crimson
my fingers touch your blood
life springs from your flower-fountain
folded lips caress the seams of my eyelids...
You injected yourself...

The Absence of TouchThe absence of touch attaches itself
To the narrow whisper of his heart beat.
Footprints echo in loving embrace
Of his fathers mummified conscience
There are memories that rise like the sun
On days when the leaves aren't kept
There are days when the rain won't come
All...

Thorns barely a repellent for birds resourceful
Tweezer glowing twilight globe, a bitter morsel

Couplet
The White Helmets of AleppoOne man
Stands
Beneath his white helmet
And demands,
Silence.
Throughout Aleppo.
His stethoscope,
He attaches
To the dust
And listens
From his knees.
The man has
Ten fingers,
A dry brush
And a pair of pliers
To dig like an archeologist.
He does not have years,
But minutes
To search the ruins
For toes
That wiggle
Or mouths
That suckle
Or bleeding hearts
That still beat
Like tremors
In puddles...

SpiritSpirit whose work is done
The produce of my poetry
A scented gift
Designedly
Bearing the present moment.
I´m unable to make a living from my poetry
Even though i would not freeze in most
In any winter
In the market of ignorance
Since i´m a poor poet
I can´t do some...

Keep Me Good CompanyKeep Me Good Company…
TODAY MY MATE SAVES MY DAY...
From spiraling into unconstructive decay,
Plugging my volcano of negative gossip & hearsay,
Planting productive advice to direct my way,
Removes pokey cacti from under my feet,
Which would have my sole torn & frayed,
She weeds...

Silence, Translation of Pierre Emmanuel S Silence By T WignesanSILENCE, Translation of Pierre Emmanuel's poem: Silence by T. Wignesan
The silence PRIOR to silence
Silence anterior to the ineffable SYLLABLE where silence is born where it’s accomplished in advance
PERCEPTIBLE syllable distanced by far from pure silence by an immutable very flat zero movement
By distending explosive the...

FriendshipI read your words of your friend, to your friend,
my heart opened as if you danced in and formed in my mind to define love.
Awe...in the truth you stated.
The words so simple. Gentle
How we watch the ones we love struggle,
How that...

Can parents understand how their baby girl feels ?
