Premium Member Fable of the Night
O, my angel, how smitten are yearnings of lonely night!
Will lover’s fantasy enchant, dream of this dreary night?

Though alluring is its rhythm, are you aware my sweet love,
Forlorn is the song, vying favor of this sullen night?

Glance of seduction, glamor of opulence, express doubt:
Can an...

Waiting To Be Free
Waiting to be free


I am dying, but not like anybody who died.
I am living, but in the rainbow, I do reside. 
How much longer will I go until secrets unveil?
My mind cannot comprehend, but my heart will decide.
My problems are too simple, my remedy complex;
Love...

I play with words, but I’m not sure why I write poetry.
One day I just felt the need to try! I write poetry!

It fills my heart with such delight. Oh, could I ever stop?
Can you keep the sparrow from the sky?  I write poetry.

Premium Member Only the Moon Understands
No stars tonight, yet eyes transcend towards bright moonlight.
Oh Moon, without words, we converse in lone quiet moonlight.

Angst of two hearts apart, shows in somber persona,
spirit fears her vision will fade with benight moonlight.

Untouched unique pearls searching for an oyster retreat.
Hoping fate is kind, before...

Premium Member For Spring Is Here
Let me 'neath fleecy clouds be. For spring is here.
God's creation all for me. For spring is here.

So many glorious gardens to admire,
Clematis attracts a bee. For spring is here.

Aubrietia produced in profusion,
Scented Daphne in valley. For spring is here.

Up in the mountains, veiled with...

Unattainable
Satisfying founts of passions, a celebration remains unattainable
Like admiring the unreachable, possession remains unattainable.

Carved pains from which to heal, an abiding endeavour
As pleasure of the mind its satisfaction remains unattainable.

Passion and reason within a soul, harmony far to reach
Ever refining a beautiful soul, perfection remains...

Premium Member To feel evergreen

In my poetic garden, where petals breathe with light - I feel evergreen.
Among ruby roses I see butterflies take flight - I feel evergreen.

Roaming under the influence of jasmine and honeysuckle perfume,
Edenic whispers weave tales of passions that excite - I feel evergreen.

In the fragility...

Premium Member In the Meadows Is My Dream
IN THE MEADOWS IS MY DREAM

Strolling, strolling we are in the meadow: airy and green
where asters, dahlias, nod and wink passing their green

With him by my side, the hours of dread and fear  are gone 
His blue eyes speak: "we're a match in heaven,...

Inside the Mirror
  Inside The Mirror 


Mirrors are the biggest liars in our world,
   You don’t want to look at them when you are old.
I will break everyone; they show an old man, 
   The man that was full of youth, as...

I Am Why
I Am Why….

Why’s that nightingale sings all through the night? I am why.
How come rain makes a rainbow by kissing light? I am why.
I am why how the season changes on Earth, I confess.
A thousand mysteries for your vanished sight, I am why.
I am love...

Sour Fantasy
Sour Fantasy…

I saw you there passing by.
   Walking graceful, kind of shy.
Body gorgeous angel face,
   Hair was so long, dim the sky.
Breasts like lemons marble legs,
   Rosy lips with tender thigh.
Looked at me with eyes so blue,
