Best Dappled Poems

Like melodies from night leaves sent over
Above the pebbled rivers, her hooves float
Across glens with misty drops of clover
Embroidered in a dwindling dark, she coats
The sleeping land with birdcall's silver notes
A flash, perhaps, between a pine and fir
A starlit ghost, gone as the sunlight stirs
A...

Dappled Winds

Phantom gliders in the sky rise at day
To rush the firmament on dappled winds,
Heaven’s piebald appaloosas at play,
Brindled tempests ruffle zephyr’s fringes
On stippled flurries in mistral tinges -
Flecks of dirges – the haunting calls of loons –
Laugh with ecstasy at mosaic breeze,
Born from the...

"Family love, hugs, smiles, laughter and acceptance of togetherness within a home, precious moments made. Quote_by Poet"


The sunlight streams though the stain glass window
dappled rainbow hues upon the floor, dust
specks dance on beams of light in the shadow.
A tipped deep breath blown; then fades in...

- the mirror shows time of age
... the truth gives a bitter taste - Quote by the poet


They said she ate children and
the kids in the street called her the witch

She can't bear to look at herself in the mirror
stopped participating in social events

The body...

I walk through a forest dappled in light
Hearing a strange humming just beyond some ferns
Pushing the folliage aside my curiosity entices me
My mind unable to comprehend what I see

hearing a strange humming just beyond some ferns
Tiny little fairy buzzing above the ground
My mind unable to...

Magnolia blossoms creamy white dappled with gray
Sway the day from foggy veil sprinkled across way

The contrast creamy white against waxy green leaves
Adds beauty brightening life upon summer's humid eve 

Unfinished and may never be finished...

Twelve syllables per line with it reading...

Dappled dawn slowly raised its shade
As brindled pit-bull puppies played
Patiently the fisherman hooks the mottled rose-dotted trout
Peppiness in his laughter rings out 
Lazily the varicolored finch's wings raise him up
Elaborately bedazzled is a spring buttercup
Day to night nature is dappled from higher-up

"dappled reflections revitalize our love"
                 ~ by poet

In the dappled shadows, my soul is lost
As darkness deepens, my heartbeat gets tossed
Like a lace veil, your thoughts cover my mind
Such...

I dream of dappled light
Falling upon my eager face
Winter at last has taken flight
Perfection of Spring embraced.

Softness permeates joyful breeze
Newfound temperance everywhere
Forest unfurled fresh green leaves
Hellebores flourish over there.

Yellow primrose quite sublime
Lovely bloom in Spring's hedgerow
Bluebells with their silent chime
Dappled light creates mystic glow.

My Winter...

Walking through the dappled forest, my mind reveled in its magnificence
The first thing I noticed was the shadowed silence; it was self-empowering.
More relaxing than a power nap. A large shadow flew over the tree line.
I focused on where I thought it might be next, it...

Keeping  Life  Moving,   
Not Obviously,   
Persisting Quietly,  
Recreating   Sunsets...

      For singing birds with lovely wings;
Fresh cool secret forest springs;
   Landscapes beautiful- and morning dew;
