Best Change Shape Poems


Premium Member Where Beauty Lies
I saw a dragon flying overhead
In fascination watched him flap his wings
Then suddenly, he was a thoroughbred
Whose smokey breath came out in giant rings

How gracefully clouds play as they change shape
At times it seems they silently collide
Lost in imagination, I escape
Down in the turn we...

The Message
I sat outside at end of day and watched the night close in.
A year had come; a year had gone, since death came for my friend.
The sadness so well known by now crept softly to the fore. 
The tears spilled from my eyelids like so...

Premium Member The Rougarou
Deep in the swamp on a full moon
Legend says a creature roams deep in the lagoon
Eyes red and glowing in the dark as he prowls
Even the alligators hide to the sound of his growls

A few brave souls have searched in the bog
For the creature with...

Clouds
Let me tell how is to be a cloud
They are lovely, I am lovely too
moving swiftly without a sound
when the sky is white and blue,
 
They are soft like cotton candy
going back and forth as the wind
crosses oceans to reach an island,
or just halting idle...

Three Ice-Dragons of Zaath Are Faring South
Three Ice-Dragons of Zaath, are faring South,
They strip the landscape barren of all Love.
Each holds a lifeless Champion in its mouth,
Each imitates the wolf, and mocks the Dove…

Beware their icy maws, their shepherds’ clothing,
For they can shift their shady forms, at will.
Their breath fills everyone...

A Warm and Windy Day
A Warm and Windy Day

The flowers are dancing to and fro
with Maple limbs dipping and bowing low

Long grass flowing in jade green waves
as my canopy swing glides and sways

Birds float along on currents up high
both light and dark clouds are draping the sky

They quickly change...

Don'T Lay Your Wings Down To Die
I stood behind my deep breath 
with evidence sorrows leaking
from my eyes,
From next door a curious old 
poet
walk by with a tongue of 
questions
before I could reply he said       
"Don't drown yourself in your
in your deep breath,
because this world make you 
cry.
Don't...

The Mattress
I remember the mattress,
where you saw me asleep 
for the first time, where we held 
our breaths as friends passed my 
door, keeping our love a secret garden.
I remember the mattress,
where we lay lazily in heat, skipping work
and the outside - waiting, wanting, 
to have...

Caught In My Mind
A blessed cloud moves overhead
I watch its journey
I watch it change shape
Blend into whatever vision I need it to be

Monumental time on my hands
Seperated by blue skies
You're caught in my mind
But soon you'll be back here with me

Meaning seems to fall by the way
The day...

'Words-The Heart of Imagination'

To feel those arms around me, 
change shape, size and pressure
I'm lost, feeling strong words spoken,
but not a sound was made.

Are you expressing, what I think
 your saying. Or through your silence
of Unspoken Words.Your message not clear

The warmth of your
body so close...

Withering Mother
I was walking in the field that time
The maize leaves blinding my eyes,
Star thorns pricking my feet,
I could hardly find what we were looking for;
We kept on following our leader:
He is the one who had sown everything,
Within minutes he had picked five huge pumpkins,
I had...

Questions For the Moon
Caitlin
10-5-12

Does the moon have holes and why are they there?
It looks like it's been injured, but no one seems to care.

Does the moon have a face? Is it looking at me?
I don't really know. Tell me what you see.

Why is it so far away? Look...

Premium Member Predator
Eyes fixed, locked on for sure

Target selected by this majestic predator

Lock tight, body role, velocity control

Change shape, speed make

Drive through raw might

Awesome nature of flight

Vertical stoop from on high

Rip through the sky in the blink of an eye

Killer takes the prize

When the skies ultimate predator...

Shapes In the Clouds
I see two lovers kissing, one face missing,
a barking dog, a fallen log, a wheel cog,
a brandy glass, balloons like someone's ****
change shape when all things come to pass.

Pilgrim's progress, perspective roads, spotty toads,
a fencing match, someone smoking a pipe,
those lovers again but you're not...

The Stoned Wall
The beautiful, stoned wall garden
sunlight and barren but for a single rose.
Gazing at the stem  which bore a rose of such beauty 
his breath was stolen.

As he stared, the stem dissolved,
and the rose floated free amid glittering mists
that obscured all else.
It seems to lighten,...
