Best Fireballs Poems


Angels

~ANGELS~


Within the abusive abyssal air, I greet you with a prayer
Within weathered winded wear, I defend in your despair
Thru calamitous city crumble I find you in your stumble
Thru mankind’s malignant mumble I bow to your humble

In the frightened fermenting fog I cleanse you in your clog
In the seducing smothering smog I seek of your demagogue
Lowered by love’s lamenting lust I return to heal and readjust
Lost in love’s layered crust I’ve come to rattle the restless rust

Of valleys low and mountain peaks I hear as the silence speaks
Of cinematic curving creeks, I glide in grace with solace sweeps
With the cascading canonized rain, I’ve come to break the chain
In pulsating punitive pain I’ve come to retire the ravaging reign

Hiding in hellion halls sinners scatter as Satin sovereignly stalls
With lasting Love and fireballs waiting upon the Masters' calls
Hovering over horrific hells I flap my wings to reflect the spells
Detaining evil in dormant dwells releasing love in wishing wells.

Sands of Time

Scorching hot sun..
Sun rays omitting intense heat
The flames of fireballs ignite..
Desert air ..
So dry and still..
A cactus thrives in desert paradise..

Sands of time..
Heat soars to the sky by day..
By night the heat plummets..
Evaporates ..
Moonlight shines..
Drenched in coldness
Chilled air and a frosted moon..
Extremities exist..
Drastic changes occur..

Sands of time..
Time is constant and flowing..
Never ending..

Astronomical unlimited grains of sand in the desert..
A wonderland of vastness and abundance..
Like the grains of desert sand..

Infinity awaits us all..
As we are eternally divine..

Premium Member Light Particle

Light, defined as electromagnet,
radiation; photon particles
Natural visible light: with intensity, and frequency
Light wavelength spectrum / polarization propagation

People pleasure and preen at the beach with sunny sun tanning
Sunlight illuminates Mountain trails for bicycling and trekking
Sunsets have lavender with orange bright beams extending
Solar sunrays light a day of picnic park fun with joyful frolicking

Some of the light spectrum is radio, white light, ultraviolet and x-rays
Infrared is only heat visible and gamma-rays are the most powerful 
Small lasers are used in disk drives, printers, and fiber-optics 
Fiber-optic networks is light fast digital information system

TV plasma, liquid crystal displays, LEDs light-emitting diodes gives visuals
These assist our everyday visual optic neural perceptions
Cars have headlights and ships use fog-lights
Light-towers have flood-lights and we use handy flashlights

Tesla and Edison partook in the light bulb’s invention
Lewis Latimer and Joseph Nichol invented its carbon filament
This did dispel much of the world’s nighttime darkness
Lightning lights reveal a charge of the negative and positive

Colors of violet, blue, green, yellow, orange, red: are in white light
Some colors viewed when seeing a rainbow over a dewy meadow
What can be possibly seen at the other end of a rainbow
This but to note God’s faithful abatement covenant

Starlight is continually being reflected and refracted
Earth and the Heavens is lit up by starry Star Lights
Great Stars round and renowned, in balance and equilibrium
They are fiery fireballs very luminous and bright

Stars dispersing their photon particles at light speed
"Light speed, “299,792,458 meters per second"
Light, is a part of the equation “E=MC squared”
“Energy,” not made, nor annihilated, yet always in flux

"Natures life sustaining and revealing light, "Light Particle"


Premium Member We Are Like the Shooting Stars

We are like the shooting stars
Underneath God’s sun.
Speeding down our own life paths
Till our time is done.

Numberless, like bits of dust,
Moving through our space,
All so different, yet alike
In the human race.

Infants first; then life heats up
And we show a glow.
Growing old, we then burn down.
Swiftly our lives go!

Some of us are just plain white.
Some have special hue.
Special ones are yellow, green,
Orange, red or blue.

Few, for good or bad, crash down,
And they’ll always be
Meteorites we recall
Throughout history.

Not remembered always on
Pages of our books,
Are the stars at whom we take
Fondest second looks.

Fireballs, they will burn down too,
But the light they give
Shines the brightest. May we all
As bright fireballs live!

The Late Night Storm

The Late Night Storm

Looking up in a stormy night
Lightning flashes across a dark starless sky
Thunder rolls through fields and cities
Such energy released on a sleepy Earth
Ancient trees explode in massive fireballs
The amber light of the fires blend with the white heat
Casting demonic shadows on lifeless walls
The beauty of the storm becomes nonexistent
Boundless fear overcomes nature’s beauty
The storm seems to rage forever
Flashes, thunder and wave upon wave of rain
Pounding into defenseless ears
Forcing its way into the primal instinct to flee
The beauty is all gone
Fear has destroyed every vestige
Covered under blankets we hide
Waiting for the storm to end
Hoping we will survive the night
After hours the bravest look out of their shelter
The sun is shining in its entire splendor
The storms have long since traveled to the east
Fears go back to rest as we see the world
The beauty has returned

Premium Member Summer Rain

summer rain 

cotton candy clouds
 whispy trails like spun sugar ~
  sly mists mask the skies

muggy breathless air 
 leaves hang limp upon their boughs ~
  mute the summer song

heat in mirages
 shimmering waves sweltering ~
  sweet star jasmine blooms

winds like banshees rise
 hypnotic dust shadows spin ~
  crickets take cover

monsoon clouds rumble
 dark humid fury gathers ~
  lightning waits to strike

thunder bumpers swell
 full of humid heaviness ~
  fevered fireballs flair

muggy raindrops fall
 scent of rain on sidewalks
  drought runs for its life.

Premium Member Plagued by Memories

The night stood, 
veiled like a nun.
     Wherever she looked,
         She saw a hooded assassin,
staring at her with eyes like fireballs.
     

Leaving aside 
the unfinished works,
she curled into bed, tired.

Thoughts once dead,
         of that fearful night
           like spirits, from another world
                 came
                          to haunt 
                              her once again.
 
They threatened to lacerate her,
      in the stillness of the night. 
Gagged by those ferocious demons,
of fear, 
she choked
     for breath.
Chained and handcuffed,
       she couldn’t move.
Should she drink to the lees,
  the dregs
 of the bitter potion
            once again?

She couldn’t wink an eye.
    
Like serpents

fears came.

If she slept, they would strike.
    So, she kept staring,  
into the awful
 darkness, wide eyed!

Mario and Luigi

Whether it's a shellcreeper or it's a freezie,
fret not, mes amis! you have Mario and Luigi,
"mama mia!","Let's go!" when you hear them say,
those plumbers in red & green are off to save the day!

Luigi is the slower one - but his jumps are far and wide,
whilst Mario, with his scarlet cap, runs faster than the tides,
always together, vanquishing ruthless enemies,
partners in time and adventure - for all of eternity!
 
Browser, the unscrupulous enemy, always kidnaps Princess Peach,
The brothers to the rescue! They sail across the seven seas!,
the boiling deserts, tiresome grasslands and the Koopa enemies,
they beat 'em all, with their fireballs and attain eternal glory.

the damsel is rescued, she hugs her noble men,
they escort her back to the Mushroom Kingdom, Yoshi too joins them,
Toad is there to welcome the weary, exhausted lot,
and bestow them with laurels for the demons they had fought.

And hence this way another tiring adventure is put to rest,
Mario and Luigi retire to their homes, waiting another test,
next morning, they hear the news "Princess peach was Kidnapped again!"
"Let's go!", "Mama Mia!" and another adventure begins!

Who Am I

Before you know my name 
You might want to know a little about me

I came from the land ends
From a bittersweet dream 
From the end of seasons
From beyond the future

I brought honey bees 
Ancient’s jaundice
But short memory 

I came to turn back to the sunset 
To ignore the crown rooster
To cross oceans
To insult the faith of candlelights  

Before you know my name
Let me hug you
Kiss you 
Warm you 

Let me feel your soul 
Hear your prayers
Calm your ghostly fears
Let me take away all the madness 
All the sadness 
All the happiness that has been overshadowed your way home 

Before you know my name 
You might want to know who I am


I’m the spring’s promise
The summer stars partying on the sky 
The autumn leaves returning to the firm ground
The winter’s tender laziness

I’m a Polar Bear in Sahara
An eager cry of hope     
A prophet wandering in the darkness 

I’m the new moon’s prudent smile
The wind whistles in a gloomy night
A mad thunder spitting fireballs 

I'm the ancients' dream 
A hope of oppression 
A freedom's flame in a lost cage 

I'm the universe's blind spot 
A diamond stone spiked in the sun’s heart   
A jellyfish's sad equation

I'm the memory of love
The son of death
A double edged-sword

Before you know my name
Please tell 
Who am I?

A Interpretation of Starry Night

Fireballs, meteors, or comets
hurled at the world like falling stars.
Aimed at little houses and little cars.
Speeding downward to crush the 
homes
of a village and town where love and 
freedom roam.
And this is seen but unknown by the 
faces 
that reside in such beautiful places...
For all appears as night and stars..

And they look up high into the sky
Yet none die or wonder why... They 
live.
They give up no signs of fright
But gaze upon a Starry Night...
At glance and in trance up above.
For by these stars, they know "HIS" 
love.
His love and unconditional affection.
"He" keeps them safe. They know 
protection.

An unconditional love they can share 
forever.
Be it with him or with each other, 
they
live and laugh and love together...
On a Starry Night when light is gone
With him or with each other, they 
are never alone...
On this canvas, they understand this.
They understand this:

Love, faith, and hope... somehow,
Will keep them safe from danger 
now.

Wow...
They know this somehow...
They "know" everything I wish
I could "feel" right now...


Starry Night by Vincent van Gogh

Fire Up Grill

Fire-up grill
No roadkill!
Cook the food
No fireballs dude!
Then eat what you will

Love Against All Odds

An ember cloud and fireballs
lit up the sky,
as the lovers embraced
each other in deep
moment of love.

They held each other's
arms and kissed
as though time had
stopped.

The two lovers turned to pillars
of ash as Mount Vesuvius
spewed out lava and rocks
all over Pompeii.

Their love was so deep and powerful,
that not even the scorch
of Mother Nature could separate
them from their bond....

Inspired by the Movie: Pompeii (2014)

Reclaiming the Glory

They stood poised to rise like sons
A collective of kindred spirits to wars
From this squadron pose they chose
They rose to face their foes

Arise like thorns from bulbs arose
Thrust their blades into their souls
Of war cries and the songs of idols
Their fears worn like sculls on spears

Prayers like a kite to the heavens
Courage like feathers to the winds
Crows poke at their startled eyes
Disappear with their gaze like a haze 

Fake alliances and poor strategies froze
In this battle defeat is reward for the skeletons
To dowse forever their ignited fuse
Refuse their mummies escape from the killing fields

To amaze the masses arrested in the maze
Kaizer shooting instructions like fireballs
The enemy retaliates by clipping our feathers
The Glamour boys simply regroup their wings

Life

The curtain tears at the centre stage
On a dancing mother and her saddled baby
Birds whistle, trees dance as the cock crows
The fire, whir, caresses her to ash
The new sizzling act oozing panache
The herald of a new dawn
 The snoring clouds will give birth to a novel day
Poco a poco, the journey commences
Whoa! He makes it to the cast in life
The number one movie in the box office
See! The smouldering sun, fireballs everywhere
The boy, a man, a lion...
Rolling in the deep
Solomon please last forever
Progressively the day bids farewell as the sun fades away
The stage illuminates in her consummate intimacy with the moon
Basking in the euphoria of virginity long lost
Solomon, a boy, bag of bones
The moon wax stronger as the night crawls in stealthily
Zero, oh! Oh, zero! Time of reckoning calling
The weary act takes a big bow as the centre stage closes
And his shadow fades back to oblivion.

Premium Member Cold of the Century

Mommy had a cold, now Dragon has it too. Oh woe is me! Woe to you, too!
Fire’s dribbling, fluidly from his eyes, as lava flows, in a nasty watery goo.  
Coughs shoot in fireballs, as he coughs, with a non-tiring, and bitter croup.
Even his little bum, found itself, with the same un-erring problem, it’s true.

OH… ME… OH… MY… WHATEVER ARE WE TO DO!!!!

The house has finally imploded, so we have him floating on our big lake.
Hoping to bring his fever down, the water’s boiling, heavily in it’s wake.
So we’re now hosing water, from the shore, to cover him, in a soothing flow.
But now, the lava’s building an island of floating fire, in a bright red glow!!

OH… ME… OH… MY… WHATEVER ARE WE TO DO!!!!

But Mommy won’t be stopped from comforting her widdle, bitty Dragon Man.
So I rowed out sitting in an ice filled boat, as we had a brilliant, big, game plan!
I waas putting ice on his forehead, as others are trying to row out more, to me.
But the ice was instantly catching fire as it hit his forehead. Oh NO!! Woe is me!

OH… ME… OH… MY… WHATEVER ARE WE TO DO!!!!

Surprisingly! Singing to him, has put him soundly, and amazingly fast, to sleep.
So now I called the Vet, to save my widdle Dragon Man, as I soundly weeped!
But much to my surprise, Grandpa Troll and the Vet steadfastly, did totally agree.
Dragon’s in no trouble, for you see, fire is a kinda, Very Normal, Dragon Thing!

 OH… ME… OH… MY… WHATEVER ARE WE TO DO!!!!

WHAT! You’re kidding! I said in Alarm! He’ll be fine? So just let him sleep?
But NOW he’s blowing fiery bubbles that are floating off high, into the air!
And every time he hiccups, they’re getting bigger! Do what? What did you say?
Get a gun!! OH, to shoot them from the air? And he should be fine by morning? 

Honestly, a Momma’s job is never done, as the fever did finally pass at dawn.
As we exhaustedly, all took Dragon home. Well, to what was left, of it, that is.
But Momma had her widdle baby Dragon back, and that was ALL we did want!! 
My prayers were finally answered! So Dear God! THANK YOU!! and AMEN!
