Best Bespeaking Poems

The mellifluous musical tones of the village bells

Echoing chimes over the cold snowcapped mountains

Both finding their way to people in the valley below

Christmas songs — let your spirit sing freely and loudly

Welcoming the Birth of Our Savior and Baby King

Who so charms the Angels on...

Twilight Whispers

Our whispers during twilight,
highlight a mystical moment
of owl-light during our special
walk together in this lush forest.

This moment captures for us a
period of true tranquility where
issues, problems, and other earthly
worries carry no weight, no penalty.

Holding hands now, we walk slowly,
whilst gently speaking to one another
in...

We might
we must
we mightily engage color's radical invitation
toward democracy,
in which black camouflages equal opportunity,
creolizes equivalent enculturations
of diversity's tones and hues
and historic chilling cries.

We could thereby release
this collective stranglehold on white
as might
and right
or fight
absence of color's ecological transparency,
vulnerability becoming
whichever rhythms and patterns
and designs embraced by history's...

FEBRUARY ON WILDMOOR HEATH

Across the Heath the chill'ed land is sleeping
The cyclic pattern of seasonal life bespeaking
Bushes hunched, bare trees holding themselves still
Not restrained by death but life's farseeing will

The grasses, sedge and reeds withered dried and flaxen
Restrained soft shades of colours' rarefaction
Only holly and...

Stop Killing My Country

Accused of political banter, 
to speak the words, God Bless, 
and America in the same sentence. 
Bespeaking the fear, 
of being proud, 
just to be born in a land free from tyranny. 
Where anyone can still be more...
than they were, 
before they...

Time Period~~1830-1850

	
As rain falls hard and soaks the ground
and thunder roars its mighty sound,
so tears of the displaced may fall,
our cries bespeaking dearth and pall.

The Deep South tribes of long ago
were forced to forge a trail of woe,
of death and want, with goods so small,
our...

Dreams of Moonbeams

Wondrously ethereal images always
magically abound in the dream world.

One particular image I had as a child
were dreams of moonbeams at night.

This certain majestic image and its impact 
have followed me throughout my entire life.

These bright beams of light have enchanted me
always—bespeaking a brilliant...

It’s 12 o clock in the night,
Thoughts twirling in my mind.
Found myself rambling on the deck and to my surprise;
Blissful breeze across my face cheering my faith to rise.

Persuading  to stop trying to cling on each rein of life.
To stop worrying about the cliche...

slight, silky rain stops,
across this grassy vale,
patches of burnt brown,
remnants of last bushfire
that has just died down;

here, there, hesitantly,
along blackened edges
of rocks, like emerald coil,
tender, green shoots sprout
just an inch above moist soil;

such pleasant green stain
bespeaking the miracle
of death and resurrection,
evoking the eternal wonder
of loss...

The naked truth sprinkles holy water
at curfew hours with touch of morbidity.
I'm on the brink of shortages -- of food and faith,
parading before my eyes the endless stream of bodies
dispatched to crematorium and the more summary procedure of
temporary burials in city parks!
Suddenly the bright idea...

Thru deliberate seductive
liaisons, ploys, and underhanded gambits,
I tendered illicit, explicit and complicit shenanigans
blatant actions to foment coital adulteration.

Ofttime these discrete liaisons found me removing 
linkedin metallic keepsake symbolizing union.

Years elapsed since this spouse pledged his troth,
he sported husbandly marital vows courtesy
monogrammed nondescript ring.

Impossible mission prevails...
