Best Gestures Poems

`


In the absence of complication,
trials and tribulations become distant memories.
Above sapphire skies delight sanguine eyes -
inspiring forthcoming musings of the mind.

While a tiny thread weaves daydreams
among tulips and chinaberry,
creating comfort along a beckoning horizon
as footsteps are soft and freedom a gift.

Birthing a simpler life singing,...

with the touch 
             of God
this fountain 
          of mercy
a thing of great beauty 

 portraits in stone
in relief & in

They chew gums in compacted face,
Cheek-bones lining made-up skin;
They belong to the golden race,
Of foaming coke and shriveled gin.

They stare at you like you were a slave,
All through your seven lives;
They do know how to behave,
But only with middle fingers five.

Rags cheap, faking overprice,
Skirts shorter...

When am I supposed to Stand, Kneel, Bow Sit Etc.?
The celebration of Mass not confined to our minds
Hearts
Voices is means to involve our bodies as well
 Each gesture is significant
Has meaning.

Standing: Standing is a sign of respect and honor, so we stand when
the celebrant-representing Christ...

The trash has been removed by wind and truck, by hands 
much smaller and hearts much larger than his.
The twinkling lights no longer shine on the tree
or in my eyes. Scourer of malls, hunter of treasures
magpie to the crownless king, reveling in his “just” deserts?

Guess I could be considered mainstream
By no means can I be thought of as extreme
But at times I sure wish
I could give life a twist
Walking down main street making gestures obscene

Show a gesture of warmth to all you meet 
Offer each one the least- a pleasing smile! 
A kind gesture can give others a new start
Geniality generates joy, creating a comfy feel

Offer each one the least- a pleasing smile
Many wallow in gnawing despair
Geniality generates joy,...

Like these hand's? They've never had a voice.

But what they've had too say all these year's?!

These hand's are small, I Know.


But they're mine.Taste sweet like candy.(Lickable).

I'm just here looking for my goodtime Lolly PoP.

Give me a Sign if you find what I'm looking for.K.F.H.Deafdumbgirl...

quick gestures
times seem subdued
though somehow not alert
moments begin to intrude
captured by phrases 
never seen abrasions
mute 
intentions fade as time is payed
fools wage's are waisted pages
redundant as it seems
tongue will find means 
as it wrestles with the ink
gives the mind time to blink
worth in word's bakers...

Sugar Cain spin speeches
coming from wrinkled, prune faces
Citrus acid tongue leeches
latching on to golden palatial places

Waxy viper lips moving in lamprey motion,
voodoo witches brew is an anaconda potion
Goodwill gestures nod seen tone sourly,
Facial expressions is wink frown candy

Let the people lick the sores of their...

Spirited Gestures

Cast restlessness about the wind,
That toss and empty leaves from trees,
The autumn season sees them thinned,
A tingling sense of breathing squeeze,
Be auburn reds hint golden scene,
Like royal robes and crowning queen.

Genteel polish a crystal shine,
Oblige passage involving wake,
Luster beckons...

A tarry bright smile
Whispers of soothing sounds
Tantalizing spices of seasoned aroma
Fragrances which evokes the upliftment
Of an unconscious soul
Beauty in it's modest nature
Life unwraps as it flips into series of previewing pages
Flashbacks of captions that entreats the mind
Distorted emotions creates a wavering countenance
Tales of trials
In pills...

For if ever I was I to summon up
forthwith the words to write something
anything befitting worthy of you yourself

I fear that trite would be the only
apt way and means to describe
my bestest yet falling failing short
of effort and expectations

And can I that hasn't already been...

HELLO 

          "Hello."

"What do you mean?"

          "What do you mean 'what do you mean'?"

"You said 'hello'."

"Was...
