Best Encumbering Poems


Premium Member The View From a Window
A view of the ragged woodland from
The window:-
Slender branched trees that shed
From high above to low below;
The faint, mauven peaks
Smattered with barely visible
Scatterings of drifted snow;
Across the matted undergrowth
A bronzed carpet of copper coloured
Leaves
Whose rusting hue, 
Momentarily ignited by stray 
Sunbeams weakly smouldering,
Briefly refurbished -
Deceives...

Percivals Promise!
The soul is but a vast ocean of vigilance

Streaming with incresent colours towards life

Infinite within its parhelion possibilities

Relentlessly searching, betwixt the everflowing tides

Whereupon all things approach these providential probabilities

Of endlessly prolific visions thus beheld

Within the grasp of pristine pictures brushed and painted

Afore the overtures tubular...

Premium Member Stem of Thorns
~ Her love abloom fell blinded in the bliss
of one thought gentle in its callow prime,
and if she felt one inkling of amiss,
a thwarted tempest may have been in time.
   As love became a storm within the boil,
her naïve virtue veered into his...

Love Falls
You, my love, you
Entrusted me into the burning arms of fervor,
Rested your knowing fingers upon skin ever glistened with tears
Graced the breath I dared to breathe when moments masterfully collided

We stand upon the edge like devils daring nature’s wrath
Your heels wrap around the very rim...

Premium Member The Heart Knows What The Mind Doesn't-extended version
Abandoning the expected, you’ll find clarity in chaos,
       allowing our minds lens to transform, tune in, brighten
Believing in you is being just you, the simplicity of you,
       encumbering cobwebs prevent life’s force from...

I was a successful, fashionable florist, in mild green days of elegant gardens,
When an orange sun beamed its pleasure, like locales where lavender begins.

I formed arrangements for many occasions, drawing beauty lovers from afar,
As pretty planets arrange for a meeting, after wild rumors of the...

The Sea Mist
Here we are, amidst
the roaring chaos,
Amidst the turmoil
of a sanguine sea
Where lightning
strikes furiously
across
Encumbering clouds
of serenity.

The wind has torn
your bones to white
splinters
And left your hearts
to the mercy of
Death,
And as the last
surviving light
withers,
We shall persevere
with each failing
breath.

Behold! The Ocean's
Womb is wide open!
The Terror of the
Depths beckons
tonight!
Your wives...

Premium Member Commandment Battlement - Part Three -
The Queen's henchmen penetrate professionally the porous perimeter,
as a Phyrric victory I pacified your Lady's legion,
for both in the open,like charriots missing riders,decentralized command,the measure,
I, like you maneuver behind the superior shelter of  Praetorian's protection,

Levy the lurid seige upon my country's citadel as incensed...

Air Travel
bags are packed cautiously locked
 ready to go
car trip to airport feels cramped
emotions  plateau
weigh-in and check-in formalities
extremely slow
final good-byes security scrutiny 
passport control

 departure clock promising leaving
on time
 heavy hand luggage warily tolerate
anticipate crime
 boarding claustrophobic cramped space
aisles align
narrowed encumbering  burdens as
knees decline

seating...

Premium Member The Back of Dad's Chair
The back of Dad's chair is black like a void,
its mid discontinuous of solid support.
Cushion coils creak as his weight shifts,
his interest unhinged from light hypnosis.
The scuff of rough wheels rub fine lines in  
encumbering crumb-crusted floorboards,
which mundanely sustain the weight
of a burdened waistline...

Ah Margarita
Dark waterfall of soft strands
Playing in the air, loftily....
Dark hollows piercing my heart
White shine-brighter than the sun...
Caricature of the milkiest dye
Rosiest ambrosias, sweet nor'westers....
Angelic face, love supreme
Eve's grace and a hue in cream...
Floating enigma of delight
Captivating perfume of silky nethers....
Encumbering all other damsels
Fairest pearl of...

Keep Fighting Kid
When you have a paramount dream constantly unraveling before your consistently 
welling blue eyes; when your rest is ever halted by the never ending murmurs of 
abhorrent foes drowning your memories in a sea of won’ts; when you are able to 
obtain every hollow shell...
