Best Evince Poems
'Fragment of the soul'
A mighty unpleasant zephyr,
Slivered my soul into
fragments,
And blew away my most
valuable fraction.
Macrocosm became his
hostelery,
Having gained altruistic
radiance,
His silence became my
tribulation.
Snookered by lot of malarkey,
Hoveled in dismay and haggling
for aquittance,
I died a silent death every
moment.
Now that time promulgates my
totality,
As I rediscover that fragment of
my soul,
My mind rests in serenity and
content.
Just as I regain my thunder,
And manage to rise in bravado,
To live a life that I would
evince,
Now a denizen of desires and
aspirations!!

Many years skies were generous with rain.
Cactus perfume infused with rain's soft scent.
Grey skies threatening, gleams in misty veins,
becoming lightning to prove their intent.
Streaks of fire racing across summer skies,
more magical than ever dreamed by man.
Music of dancing raindrops soon belie
storm's frenzied anger, its thunderous hand.
We evince rain as a gentle creature,
gracing rooftops, trees, dry wildflower beds.
Lulled to sleep, we forget its main feature:
without it all suffer, life becomes dead.
We thirst for rain in our over-parched lust,
lest greens turn to brown and living to dust.

The red bow was tied; a marriage dance
They fell in love at first glance
The groom and his novia—bride
Only knew what they felt inside
When two hearts who decide
The winding roads of life’s plight
Prevailing winds take flight
Blind faith takes its place
A muted warning of losing grace
Echos of freedom’s uncharted change
Anger, jealousy, and pride estrange
Unrequited lover’s inner challenge
A viper’s spiteful poisonous syringe
Coasting to a motionless throttle
Left only a note of evince in a bottle
Floating then anchoring deep in the ocean
The voyage ends, as does devotion
Dour hearts battles vincere
Never more to each other sincere
¿ Salvar el amor?
Betrothed no more
The sea breeze’s goodbye
The red bow is untied
*Save our love?

Rhyme
Those who stand their ground...
Their sacred ground...
With their backs against the wall.
Making bold their full intentions
While the slings and arrows fall.
Laying waste an air of happenstance
Permeating sick and feeble minds...
Caring not the monstrous odds
The powers of darkness have aligned.
I fear not this mass of troubled souls
Who demand their pound of flesh.
I contest every foot of treasured Earth.
I contest every loathsome wretch.
I give not an inch to those who dare
Make dark the light of day
To preserve such sacred wanderings
Where the meek would have their say.
I will lift my voice in praise and song
To evince the veracity of my cause
Displaying a knightly measure of gallantry
To give the hapless minions pause.
But sweet victory demands some sacrifice
As a judicious Death may set me free.
Knowing this... would you be at my side?
Would you rise and stand with me?
The End

The copyright is ’58;
I’ve owned it ever since.
Its stories, 28 in all,
My childhood do evince.
I likely read it to myself;
My memory has faded
But all the wonder of those tales
My reading life pervaded.
Unlike the whitewashed versions
Of most fairy tales today,
The stories feature cruelty
And malice on display.
Yet recently I found this book
And dusted off its spine
To share each afternoon with
Much-missed grandchildren of mine.
They listen quite intently;
FaceTime lets them see the art
And we bridge the distance which unjustly
Keeps us miles apart.
Full circle now, my book of tales
Still holds its magic power,
Enchanting those who listen during
Nana’s story hour.

A little alliteration by a long shot speaks so loud.
Metaphors muddle my mind
And silly similes stymie the sentence.
A terrible trope takes too much of my time
g Tiberius is my tag and title
My nom de plume is a personal platitude personified
Better *****es badger me with their bared bosoms
A curious cacophony controls my cochlea
Demanding drugs and daffodils
Eventually ephemeral earth will evince my effervescence
Freakin' phantom fear will appear
Had enough, Harry?
Or do you just ejaculate jocularity?
O K - I'll specially spare you the shroud of St. Sebastien
And say Adios, amigo; ta ta to you, see ya, Zebra; good-by, sweety-pie
So long saintly Samuel, take care, Virginia Dare
And that's the way it is, my miz
Amen and au-revoire.

Alliteration
A fire started on the two-story house occupied by five people
As smoke poured from an upstairs bedroom of the couple
Emergency officials responded in time, all the members safe
The last to come out was a pregnant Doberman with her kids.
The Doberman walked up to the fire fighter, tired and exhausted
The fighter knelt down, took off his mask and a camera clicked
The doggy looking at the masked must’ve thought of canine kind
Or seeing a unknown man the doggy might have his nose sniffed.
Now, the firefighter didn’t rescue her, but a simple coincidence
A poet has to evince what could have happened for instance.
A story went round about this among the sentimental people
Granted that the dogs are very grateful and sensible creature.
Dogs in no circumstances can behave like this as humans do
Except either in a miracle stories or make-believe stories a few.
Imagination without learning, has wings and no feet

O Nebulae of Heart and Soul!
In infrared portrayal WISE,
your colors grace the stellar skies.
Have you a core celestial role?
Supernal presences you seem
that steal one’s fancy unawares,
far-off from earthly human cares,
inspiring a soulful dream.
Does music of the spheres resound
in utterness of heavens’ art
to beating of a boundless heart
we seldom hear here on the ground?
You bring to mind the vintage song,
where lovers fell in love and kissed
one magic night in moonlit mist—
a classic tune, still going strong.
Six thousand light-years from our Earth
is where you two evince your charm—
part of Perseus’ spiral arm—
in cosmic womb for starry birth.
That limb is in our Milky Way.
Cassiopeia holds the Soul
east of the Heart, to make the whole
of the mosaic on display.
Your archetypal names evoke
Cupid and Psyche myths of old,
tales allegorical untold,
poetic visions you awoke.
In concert you’re a perfect pair.
Befittingly you reign on high.
Lest we forget wherefore and why,
our true humanity is there!
~ Harley White
Inspiration for the poem came from the image and article “Heart and Soul”... at [www.nasa.gov/mission_pages/WISE/multimedia/wiseimage20100524.html]
[The Heart and Soul Nebulae are seen in this infrared mosaic from NASA's Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer, or WISE. All four infrared detectors aboard WISE were used to make this image. Color is representational: blue and cyan represent infrared light at wavelengths of 3.4 and 4.6 microns, which is dominated by light from stars. Green and red represent light at 12 and 22 microns, which is mostly light from warm dust.]

First sky says, Toth faced the reptiles
Just go back and read the tiles
Forever written laid before your eye
The story goes on for miles
Forward to the time of the snake
This is when the story becomes fake
See eye becomes quicker than hand
Now then thee earth really did shake
Ushering the coming of a lamb
This was the time of the Ram
The establishing of the law
A dividing between you and Sam
Now jumping to the time of the fish
The next step in answering your wish
Love each other as you love yourself
Soon they will arise in dish
Heard from the cry of the guns
Entered we have the time of the one
Whosoever can hear me and see me will
Hit the game winning home run grand slam

The Elephant Gift.
upon the elephant rode a boy prince,
his royal command, he was there to evince.
dark with grace and dripping with youth.
bringing his men, his crown and his couth.
town after town he strode fierce through the gates.
and any detractors were left to cruel fates.
and on one windy day, as they strode into town.
the faces where tenfold and a hush passed around
the grey of the creature with knowing black eyes
swayed left towards the crowd as if to capsize.
and the mass gasped in horror; bairns seized by their mam.
men flung at young ladies, babes pulled from the pram.
the bewildered and flustered
tired elephant sat.
in the center of all on the bald pastors hat.
the old pastor looked stunned to see such a disgrace.
until he remembered, and composed his face.
'your highness' he bowed. his manners restored.
but the poor prince was toppled his mighty seat floored.
they gasped for the prince, just really a child
dressed in fine silks on this elephant wild.
pastor said, 'here now' extending an arm
hand wrinkled and gnarled from the land that he farmed.
then the guards sprung to life as if sudden awake
guns point to the man of whose life they would take.
and just as they squinted their eye for the aim
a boy sang out sweetly, 'sire he's not to blame!'
and the prince from street where he lay in pool
held up his hand and recovered his rule.
he looked at the crowd and he said 'boy now speak'
the boy said, 'prince it is the prayers that you seek.
the prayers that you'd visit. the prayers that you'd stay.
lord must of heard them and granted this way.'
his eyes wide with truth and the love of his church
the prince laughed a beautiful belly filled lurch.
the carriage was called as the prince shared a feast.
and even some water was splashed on the beast.
such a good time as he danced and he spun
till the horses arrived in the dust of a run.
to thank the town and the lovely haired boy
the young prince gave up his own precious toy.
the beast stays quite put in the center of town...
but prayers? Say no more...
so the prince won't fall down.

*****LETS TOSS A COIN*****
Whenever we flip a coin, we always know the side that we hoping for
But every story has a two side
And so is life
But we always consider one side that we like
And forget that, the outcome can be what we dislike
But such is life
Every man seek positivity
So we don't prepare to face outcome that are negative
Yet we know that, a rolling coins outcome is not evince
But since we always chooses a side
We will become gutted when things doesn't go our way
Yet, we should be gusty to pick up the coin and toss another day
We always be disgruntled, since we don't consider other possibilities
But if we have respect for evwry outcome
There will be nothing like a stun to make an idea a thunderbolt
Life is just like the tossed coin
So it's outcome shouldn't be miraculous
Except that our nemesis makes we think we will always vanquish
And that sometimes makes us sluggish
Many situations are fate worse than death
That we sometimes consider as myth
So we shouldn't make them look like a catastrophe
Cuz tomorrow we might be lifting lifting up your trophy
Is time we embrace every outcome with a mirth
To prevent us from becoming mirthless and moron
But it is not wrong to be disconsolated
But I think we shouldn't be dillydally, but be hurry
To pick up the coin and toss again
Because life is full of uncertainties

Bill and Kate are wed and I wish them well
They are so in love far as I can tell
But they've got to learn so much
To evince that royal touch
So not from Queen Liz to catch 'oly 'ell
Wave as if screwing light bulbs in sockets
Billy keep your hands out of your pockets
Wear perpetual glowers
Never serve Liz Whiskey Sours
Zazas she likes for happy hour dockets

Limerick
from birth until this moment with your family as supporting team
the journey within your space/ time continuum stream
found trials and tribulations comprising the spool o yar existential ream
some incidents assessed in retrospect might now appear
as particularly significant undertakings – getting you grounded with clear
insight into what future dreams may become manifest with yar dear
beloved husband – I aver to when ye will endure empty nest fair
lee soon, whereby yar life will constitute andy and his anatomical gear
whose cupidity, fidelity, integrity, levity, opportunity, runneth tranquil
tiding up for gatherings or packing with his efficient globe trotting skill
bubbling with energy, harmony, synergy through his confluence he rill
lee doth possess – in my humble opinion, though less to take quill
to paper, him this brother in law applauds how he accepted any bitter pill
i.e. figuratively when the fickle finger of fate seemed to obscenely mill
a tate a contrary outcome than he desire, a fighting esprit de corps did fill
his entire being – putting forces of destruction re: no longer threat of evil
which waywardness with this poetic intent to type a birthday cheer
sans thy lovely sister activated thoughts pertaining to positive people dear
as senescence shuttles thine youngest harris heiress who everywhere
she goes affects a blessedly diplomatic, friendly holistic imprimatur
and thus tis probably apropos to attempt to communicate with mere
crude symbols i.e. the 26 letters of the alphabet to formulate the near
wrist approximating her significance in me xy z lived life a prayer
and many a broken wing, but tis necessary 4 me 2 expunge – though rear
the positive presence (most often invisible) whence shari did tear
out from the birth canal even at that early infantile stage did wear
autonomy to evince can do spirit whereby she irresistibly insinuated an air
that inexplicably captivated family, friends, romans….with no blare
ring burst, but she exhibited a magnetic trait – I now heartily cheer
cuz many stepping stones to mine current ah fair
rooted tuber remembered per the unsolicited advice aye did hear
when oft times shuttered in this man cave, hell lair
re: us lee chuckling at online jokes, which laugh tier
medicine for this bot deed father, a pro motor still sputtering each year.

Ode
Listen to the warm
"It happens just because we need to want, and to be wanted to, when love is here or gone to lie down in the darkness.. and listen to the warm". ...Rod Mcuen
As the chills of extreme winter bite me through the night, I close eyes to visit my memorable past when you held me in your arms so tight, I could feel your breaths on my neck, skin next to mine and thumps of fastened heartbeats.
Wantings craved to end tranquil as I listened to the warm.
I then open eyes to find no one by my side, frozen frigid with dried up eyes that do not reply to any emotion anymore, I wait endlessly for your eternal touch that only could send some warmth.
Me and you and our rhythmic beats
of that time were the soul's treat...
Those close walls if were able to speak
will evince and further endeavour to seek...
How inseparable souls and crossed our hearts,
could time ever tear us apart ?

It had been a long time since she had peeked
Into the future using the tea leaves,
Happy to accept what each day wreaked,
Aware that foreknowing oft deceives.
Into the future using the tea leaves,
One morn she accidentally looked;
Aware that foreknowing oft deceives,
The cup sitting unwashed as she cooked.
One morn she accidentally looked,
Across the sink and down the insides,
The cup sitting unwashed as she cooked,
Eager to share each secret it hides.
Across the sink and down the insides,
New grandchildren she saw in the cup,
Eager to share the secrets it hides,
Whispering the dame ought to wise-up.
New grandchildren she saw in the cup,
Many happy weeks and sad days too,
Whispering the dame ought to wise-up;
For the years she had left were few.
Many happy weeks and sad days too,
She smiled and gave the cup a rinse,
For the years she had left were few,
Past cares completed, few fears to evince.
She smiled and gave the cup a rinse,
Happy to accept what each day wreaked;
Past cares completed, few fears to evince,
It had been a long time since she had peeked.
