Best Bestrew Poems

...to Juvie

With airy tread your footfall makes no sound,
as crackl’d leaves bestrew the frozen ground.
The lightness of your voice floats on the breeze,
its delicacies set my soul at ease.
A white-flecked silence hovers o’er the croft
and echoes perish, silence settles soft. 
Weightless and peripheral you flitter
‘twixt...

When true love’s gone and doom hangs over head

When life runs like a river to the sea

Then shall I take new lovers to my bed?

And with their carnal touch consoled be?

When my love lies,so breaks my tender heart.

When life seems grey and rocks bestrew my...

When true love's gone and doom hangs over head
When life runs like a river to the sea
Then shall I take new lovers to my bed.
And with their carnal touch consoled be?



When true loves lie and break my woman's heart.
When life seems grey and rocks bestrew...

Let the rain splash incessantly,
And wash away with its flow;
These pangs of sorrow that linger,
Resting upon my brow;
Let it splatter upon the furrowed skin,
And bestrew these lines of grief;
Drenched by the ceaseless bout of tears;
Flared, deepened chasms tho’ brief;
Let it flood the rivulet bellies,
And in...

When winds of change draw winter nigh,
    The guilded leaves of Autumn sigh.
    With memories of summer days,
    And springtime blossoms sweet bouquets.

    This golden age each year bestows,
    An...

This may not seem so special
This I believe is true
But some things are left unspoken
Like crying, or loving you
My heart has yet to darken
As for now, I will make-do.
But before you know, we’ll have to mention
What it is that’s sad but true

Thinking of you brings...

Graze by space, breathe of obsolesce
To reach ends; loose gasps espy
Down hazy firmaments crash poise
Bestrew thoughts asunder, sunk in levity
Dust fervid of the stars; it burns thee
Respite it sowed, deprave by night
Down the deep, quiet all I see
Clean of root and soot, shunned by the...

Ah... already the summer 
approaches closing time,
but yours truly can squeeze 
one more rhyme 
before September first,
thus the following lines after...

Brainstorming, concentrating
panning... for poem
idea shattered brew
tilly by deafening seasonal
greensward cutting crew
contracted throughout summer to mow
leaves of grass
every Tuesday, which drew
attention toward fragrant aroma
seeping into nostrils

Brainstorming, concentrating

idea shattered brew
tilly by deafening seasonal
greensward cutting crew
contracted throughout summer to mow

leaves of grass
every Tuesday, which drew
attention toward fragrant aroma
seeping into nostrils
of me - match hew,
heavily negated true

quiescence courtesy ear splitting
soundcloud of driving
mowers even moo
ving bovines would
clap cloven hooves
over soft as lambs...

He dances on the shore,
white shirt in hand,
and waves and waves.

The gold," he cries,
"I.ve found the gold
and ruby stones of deepest dye."

Heedless, the cross-masts
sink from sight.
Salt-water laps the shore.

Tears trickle down his cheeks,
for now he knows the reason why
white bones bestrew the golden strand

And vultures...
