Best Calligraphy Poems

Up and down as it overlooks
the open book
freefalling so
but where to go?

Embellish each page, one by one
where words will run,
of written swerves,
artistic curves

By quill that writes an artful verse
I now rehearse
but cannot free
calligraphy

calligraphy
of cirrus clouds as the sky slips
into night
it's her dark eyes
I remember...

Counting crows crackle to be free
The cauterized blessing you sold to me
Hangs by the door nail in tombstone majesty

What did we say
When blackholes stripped breath away
Are the promises murdered in flight
Sharpening again in poise of night

Electronic souls dash and torn
The emblem of false exchange is...

Deliberating about something cool
Which can varnish a smirk on someone's face
Don't know a bit, if you deem that I'm a fool 
But this hand with a pen, grasping commotion for this race
It's hard to conceive this verses 
Kind a like I'm in crisis 
Stop meditating...

Ignorance comes with a specific gesture of innocence
After lifting a mountain, there is none, with your limitations.
And, I will start here, past the speaker and the audience, conversations...
I was looking at the calligraphy along the wall. Scriptures. Huge and magnificent.
Little did I know about. And,...

Through the breeze 
that blows in time,
the precious weave
in leaves of thyme


——–


Arriving in nowhere
getting up to her knees,
and saw for herself
a wonder of peace


A woman of beauty
that shimmered all time,
the radiance of stature
glowed from the divine 


Kneeling before 
this nature in gold,
their aura’s blended
in ambrosia...

In a wild, frantic fairytale
Could you name a character 
Whose heart had failed her
In ways that mine has?

With a bitter flame inside my chest,
I pledge I'll never try again.
I plea with grace and decency
With every attempt to flee the scene.
With every attempt to leap into...

Play with words well
In that sure light,
Sculpt scripts that tell
In fragrant sight.


In cursive strokes
Let play now start,
In mellow yoke
As finesse arts.


Up and down free
The urge of curls,
Across ink spree
Thought feel that hurls.


Script full measure
Wet ink that trace,
A fond pleasure
As time meets space.


Words fashion brief
The journey...

Calligraphy in the Air for a Fleeting Muse
Each morning I try to capture in the net of my metaphors the dance of your steps through the corridors of memory,
But the words melt like ice butterflies in the palm of a child who wanted to keep...

The brush paints
The brush sweeps
With beautiful strokes
With a traditional art
The brush waves
The brush dances
All with the delight of the fingers
And the sincerity of the heart
It asks for great patience, creativity and perseverance
As Rome is not built in a day...

Peace of mind links
Opt feel and think
Etch fond verse brink


Thrill bold brush strokes 
Ink stains now yoke
Charm wit that pokes


Choice paints with grace
Aim joy in place
Live lavish space


Love funds the need
Inch touch that seeds
Glimpse a live feed


Reach words that fit
Ask truth for wit
Prize poise sculpts...

my quill found its soul
it danced on the parchment floor ~
all six sensed its life

... I sense a sharing
one of sincere gratitude ~
gift lift ~ spills my soul

I live when faced down
craft flows a course on parched reeds ~
ink spots ... your presence

Stars for eyes
Clouds for hair
Skin silky devine
Smile so fare
Energy so kind
Drawing me near
Joy in my mind
You put it there
Are you my muse
Do stay with me
Color my blues
Creamy calligraphy 
Clean my heart
Strengthen my mind
Light my start
Path in time
Goddess Devine
