Best Disrobes Poems

With gladness I am drawn to a rosy dawn
and looking up to where white clouds are swirled
in heaven’s skies, I see before my eyes
the goddess of a blossoming new world.

As mountain streams come flowing, wind is blowing
her shining hair. Enchantress of the wild,
she twirls a...

Induced Interludes

Twilight disrobes a soundless star
It claims some gentler theme from me
Caught lingering in a unified bestilled embrace
Beneath a unique spotlight of its gleaming afterglow
                    ...

Japan Surrenders

Japan's crimson sun disrobes a dawning night rise sky,
An elm tree parasol's her coral samurais while they lie.

Death disrobes the body of our fancy garments,
And clothes us with more common fashion:
A mere loincloth of sky blue silk,
So that we may feel the warm passion,
Of  resurrection’s gorgeous spring
And the spiritual blessings it will bring.

So sleep on calmly with Jesus,
Beneath your coverlet of...

Your softest whisper, how it floods my soul
It glides through veins eliciting control
There is no place where it does not embrace
Disrobes me of my negligee of lace

That whispered vow you sealed with lover's kiss
Your body claimed me, took my soul to bliss
And while enraptured all...

Epigrams by Michael R. Burch

If brevity is the soul of wit
then brevity and levity 
are the whole of it.
—Michael R. Burch

To write an epigram, cram.
If you lack wit, scram!
—Michael R. Burch

Conformists of a feather
flock together.
—Michael R. Burch

If every witty thing that’s said were true,
Oscar Wilde,...

We drift softly together- -
hands glazing a window filled with stars
   where row of flora bends its twirling hips
               and curtains lift the fabric of breath,

until we become twinsouls...

"Delphi"
 


Held in the palm of Zeus
there transforms Her solitary Self
in The Seat of Pythia

delivering prophecies
filled by the spirit of 
Enthusiasmos

Oracle of Delphi
speaking gibberish
with the lesser priests

conjuring the Poiesis
into enigmatic hexameters
poetic and dactylic

by way of Lux
towards a place 
that doesn’t rot

In the Symposium 
where Plato...

October arrives
  so unlike the long dry hot summer of 2015.
Mornings are damp and cool with dewy drips of somberness
  and soft shadows fading off into the background.
A blustery chilling wind races through the trees
  rushing gray clouds quickly across the skies.
The...

It presents itself as being beautiful
Adorning its lips that they may appear graceful
Even the wise declare it is greatly helpful
But till eternity it remains highly decietful

Man's eyes it would blindfold
There consciousness to realse it might have sold
Promising all to reward in tenfold
Yet sending them out...

Queen Nefertiti soul keeps biting my lip, blowing me kisses, sorry to all my beautiful black sistas, I’m married now, no more mistress, no more visits, no more paying me unless it’s with interest, yeah I’m still super handsome, chilling, getting a little fat, waiting...

I could not hold on to you
But oh...how hard I tried
Excavated each forgotten chamber
Of my heart
To find some charm
Some talisman
To cast a spell
And make you mine
Some magic potion
That would make your every night
A “midsummer night’s dream”
Where all is not what it seems
And you are in...

JANUARY in slence ,hides its cry
 APRIL in splendour,catches the eye
 JULY lazing,as the world goes by
 OCTOBER disrobes,as fall leaves die
 
 inspired by E Pauline Johnson's phrase August,laughing 
across the sky in her SONG MY PADDLE SINGS

On the invisible screen
upon celestial wings
twilight of autumn moon
swinging gracefully 
wooing millions and zillions. 
	
At times she veils behind 
passing clouds teasing
all the admiring glance.
Her raiment sways poetically 
removing darkness from night.

She personifies romance
in the distinct of distance
flashing clandestine smile.
She is every poet's dream
Who loves...

a pretty notion
becomes 'armless'
candy

this red planet
disrobes its cloud-
I cry aloud...
