Dear Budding Poet,

Modern poetry is a mix of new and old with modern styles created by bending or even breaking the rules of old forms to create new ones.
Express yourself any way you want to because the rules are not set in stone.

Premium Member Our Budding Chef -- Thanks
Back when he was seven, our son won a contest
   In his class, his turkey recipe adjudged the best
He was so happy, floating so high on cloud nine
   but first prize was something less than 'quite fine'

He had to follow his...

Budding Trees
When trees bud their first green
All of nature rejoices when
Birds in early morn' sing,
New life all around, a butterfly omen-
It is time for love once again

Primitive energies overtake all beings
Expectant mothers' build their dens
I stop to watch two birds lovingly preen
Time to build on life,...

Premium Member Budding Beauty
For a date at eight she bathes at five.
In tons of bubble bath,
Barricades her boudoir door,
Eau de cologne marks her path!

Her lingerie must be 'just so',
A froth of frills and lace.
Down with the curlers, up with the hose,
The womanly task of 'fixing her face'!

Donning a...

Promotions to highest firmament
Wished to be great writer

For Another Budding Child Flower

Alone in the dark uterus of my bedroom
here I lie curled up in the thoughts 
and emotions of  the day.

Another budding flower
was plucked from the garden street
leaving its red sap as a jaded memento 
to stained innocence and hoodwinked justice.

Another...

Dear Budding Poet:
Modern poetry is a sandbox for all who would build, smash, trash, shake up, and take up the art. Poetry is not writ, nor wrote, or written, but is hummed through the nose, and planted on paper with plenty of mulch. Poetry hits...

Budding Beauty
Age of purity and innocence,
this time of change
meets a blooming maturity
Fulfilling form, stylising figure;
nature produces fine specimen
A time to play with hair and fashion
To perfect beauty, 
applying make-up and perfumes
Bringing forth fresh radiance
Changing mood and attitude
A young lady, pleasing to the eye
stands before mankind
A budding...

The Budding Soul
The shadows from his younger days shake his resolve, 
and make a mockery of time 'til time be lost 
to moments of bewilderment, ne'er to evolve, 
they bounce and bluster errantly, much to his cost. 

Shades and silences, outbursts of ungoverned rage, 
cruelty breeds rancor,...

Blue bonnie budding beauty burn
Ready to receive fluttering butterflies
Breathing heavy heart not seen
Glittering dew drops signify all.

Spring's Budding Romance
Lovely hued flowers adorn my sills, painting over winter's gloom
Budding blossoms, an abundant gift from earth's lavish garden 
Spring has arrived in splendor; she is fully clad in fragrant bloom   
An array of vivid petals wave to greet me through my open curtain...

Wait For Me In Budding Branches
Closed Eyes --
I imagine you, a bird
Soaring through a cloudless wide open
And to my ears, I hear the gentle chimes
In breathtaking delight, a sound so
Tinkle 
Tinkle
Tinkle…
Breathing in --
The air is warm painted in sunshine
Sweet as fresh rain in the woods
I hear you --
A quiet flutter...
