Premium Member Shakespeare Could Have Cast You
You had me oblivious to your antics, 
as you hushed me tenderly by the creek 
into your hide and seekable 
soul-surrendering secret relief. 
There, you cottled me into softness 
with a simple chin caress, 
which continued to smooth 
the entire twisting course 
of my delicate...

Premium Member Shadows Cast By Sun
Friends come and go, but some have passed me by
as swiftly as the sun that lights my days.
They wave goodbye; I give a little sigh.
It seems I barely had them in my gaze.

Sweet friends I knew from youth. Where have you gone?
My bonds with some...

Premium Member Cast Away
The fog rolls in at the loss of a mother…by Poet

climb
into
the last time
you feel cold sheets
against your body
others plump your pillow
you hope to see everyone
before you close your eyes to them
they’ve dressed you in a lovely nightie
cast away opened-back hospital gown
you lay on death’s chest-...

Desperate Wishes Cast
'

where, in the shadow of a winter moon
beyond eternal skylines collecting stars,
does affection unfold in the sheets
of a nighttime whispering on the breeze

desperate wishes cast as stones on a pond,
smooth surfaces now laced with ripples,
spherical patterns meandering towards
a slumbering shoreline, drifting inward

a silhouette of love,...

Premium Member An Old Cast Iron Pan
I imagine when you first see it…all you see an old cast-iron pan…you don’t see where it’s been…you only notice the outside…not the history within.

But every time we use it…we handle it affectionately…because when we pick up this old cast-iron pan…that…is exactly what we see.

Some...

Premium Member Cast Your Spell

Old crone, please tell me your secret.
Give a taste of your magical brew.
Whisper the herbs I must gather.
To mix up your potency stew.

A mere mortal born, I am helpless,
Unless you will lend me some power.
What ever it is I will drink it,
No matter how sweet...

Cast Away
Waiting for you makes me feel
Like a cast away in Malden
So much golden sand
To slide my bare feet in

My feet feel each hot grain
Fills between each toe
Sun bakes the air around me
As I feel the warm wind blow

My eyes see an endless sight
Of such...

Do I Cast An Aura of Dark Energy
Written with admiration for Tom Cunningham ~ a gentle poet
maligned by one who really casts an aura of darkness


My smile is genuine and reaches to my eyes.
I do not wear a mask, nor a cloak of disguise
and I post poetry in my given Christian name.
From...

Across Mind's Fertile Fields New Seeds Are Cast


Across mind's fertile fields new seeds are cast
Oft spread onward by an innocent flame
If, if only, youth could forever last
Death would have to abandon its dark game.

Old age would vanish with its dreaded pains.
We would not be looking...

Red dust stirring in her footsteps, grace in her shoes 
she was a fearful angel, between old world and new

singing roads rarely traveled, in rhythms soft and...

Cast Thy Stones
Cast thy stones, cast thy stones,
Come ye one and all.
For ne’er were truer words than these:
“Pride cometh before the fall.”

Come ye saints, come ye church,
Let this be our creed:
“Despite the beams within our eyes,
This worn world was born to bleed.”

Come ye thieves, come ye whores,

Premium Member The Die Is Cast
there’s a seismic gap
between the then and now
i see it widen
with every gaping breath
working your way
to the other world
the fog is clearing
the bridge appearing

that’s it
the time has come
you’re leaving me
hardly by choice
goodbye to dreams
we shared

just one more i love you
another smile
one more connection
as nightfall descends
i...
