Best Beatrix Poems


Beatrix Potter
A good old duck, a mother hen, 
a friend of Peter Rabbit; chased 
Mr. McGregor out of the garden: 
the Flopsy Bunnies survive again.  

She knew her ewes from her rams, 
meticulous, house-proud in her way. 
A hedgehog, a Mrs. Tiggy Winkle 
every field...

Makabre Marionetta
Hey mommy I am here to play
Daddy and brother are on the way 
To the underworld where I sent them
By gutting tummies and dissecting 
Innards go to outwards on the floor
Faces you can’t recognize anymore
Low and behold they still breathe
So I drowned them in the...

Calls My Name
The orb calls to me, beckons breast beat,
blood in veins permeates, face red with heat,
as I asphyxiate, am dominated, reach climax.

Each time lustful, more powerful, sensual.
I crave this fix, my only reason to exist,
addicted to what only it can give, aahhhh.

Run my hands across thy...

Book: Radiant Verses: A Journey Through Inspiring Poetry



Bear Cub and Butterfly
Blinking away the last vestiges of slumber,
the cub takes a few tentative steps,
her paws sinking into the soft,
loamy soil.
With each cautious movement,
she pauses,
her small nose twitching,
as she samples the myriad of scents,
that permeate the forest.
The world beyond the den,
is a wondrous tapestry of sights,
sounds, and...

Our Droplet Ripples
Sailing the seas of life, we find ourselves adrift, carried away with no compass or map to guide our way.

Our bodies, two vessels destined for collision on the jagged cliffs of the fray, ensnared by death’s velvet chains bound our amatory embrace.

Shipwreck that leaves us...

Enigmatic Perspective
Amongst the treetops a falcon finds its prey
Swooping down talons open to grasps it
Only to let it drop so it’s bones will shatter
Questions have arisen in the coming days
Am I in the talons or am I the falcon hunting
A gunshot is heard with a burst...

Salvage A Whir
Stair carefully dear into the unknown abyssal void.

Pier was once past and now rotted and rictus, petrified.

Hue manatee threaded ten den and garnet.

Ruby teardrops and crimson Damascus drips droplets,

like a leak key faucet in the dead of night.

Scarlet necklace four by one who did sow...

Pathetic Husks
I detest cowards who cower at night's darkness, 
afraid of shadows and their own demons. 
Fear is a thief that steals courage 
and leaves only cowardice in its wake. 
Be a warrior, not a weakling. 
Face your fears, 
and let the darkness fuel your lights...

Nothing Artificial About It
Time, a cryptic essence, weaves its spectral threads,
Change, an eternal phantom, in ceaseless evolution treads.
Humanity, in languid pursuit of effortless resolution,
Seeks fusion in complex or integrated constitution.

Such is nature's coquettish dance, a macabre ballet,
The apex predators hold sway, in the grand play.
All dangle from gallows,...

No One Is Looking
Cadence lowers its tenebrous tempo
Dulcet to a morose Memento Mori-bund
Lachrymose ribbon garnet fountain
Ruby rivulets in wine glass Chardonnay
Bubble floats to pop
Silence yet I sway

Miasma tang vitae oh Nueva
So they swing on a rope seputchra
Momma Mia mommy
Bites her lips
Somersault flips
Debauchery

In my hidden boutique adornment boudoir
My basement...

I Am A POEtess Because
Tempest is brewing the bridge overhead,
sways the strands of titanium on pillars of stone,
dusted in my fists like onyx beneath gold.

Crows circle the lonely woman in the desert,
as she crumbles they make quick like piranhas,
cadaver for a school class dressed in a shirt.

The leaves crunch...

Lilith, Finale Moon
Zenith swirls of black rose petals,
burst into a flock of circling crows,
descending ash and rain on my frozen form.

Viscera and scarlet pools flash,
feet running of a child,
car screeching tires with broken glass.

Piano motif grave into a tilt,
fingers dancing like butterflies,
levees welting over the brim crimson,
down...

Checkmate You Lose
Do you tremble,
as the monstrous cadence,
of the rhinoceros' stride reverberates,
like the buffalo's onslaught?

Vipers at the water's edge,
darting hither and thither,
not above but beneath the surface,
their sinuous silhouettes fabric of nightmares, tearing sinew from skeleton,
swifter than their colossal marine brethren.

It carries weight,
this significance,
but how burdensome,
must it...

Smile Till You Fall
crimson mixes of love and rage,
a cauldron of heartache bubbling,
memories shared, now a tribute,
to the venom in my pen writing.

fueling our past, surviving tonight,
amongst the stars and the sky,
a love lost in time, a phantom limb,
echoes of what could have been.

colliding paths, a spark of...
