Best Glistening In The Sun Poems


Blow Sweet Breeze
With the turning of the green
the fevered hues engulf my soul
rich radiant reds glistening in the sun
as my heart gleams with memories
of the solemn words that fall from
your angelic lips.
The ornate orange and dynamic yellows
come to life
like those sparkling flecks dancing
inside your autumn eyes. Oh...

The Ambiance of Amber Light



I watch the morning glow behind you
inviting my eyes to pause in soft amber light
which frames your beauty
warming my heart with a smile
bursting the seeds of passion
allowing them to float endlessly...through my soul
pouring desire into the eyes of love
until they overflow...

Premium Member Beauty of a Sonnet
The eye refracts the light and then is born
An image, and ideas are likewise shown
When Poet tilts each ray of thought to form
Reflections set to sonnets’ rhythm own.

A river glistening in the sun does flow,
And so a sonnet moves and shimmers rhyme.
This stream of words...

Premium Member Passionate Kiss
Morning light wears a softer hue,
embracing wet leaves, glistening in the sun.
Thick grass brings a caressing warmth, to our feet, 
as we travel gentle slopes,
to farthest hills, as lovers do.
Our palms closed tight like oyster shells,
covering rare pearls,
as we watch pastel red skies turn a...

Oh Vanity Thy Name is Metro-Man

At the gym,
admiring his bulging biceps in a giant mirror,
he reaches for his ever-ready smart phone
and stops to make a boastful tweet.

Driving home, sipping his protein drink,
he involuntarily sneers
noticing construction workers on a roof,
their strong bronzed arms glistening in the...

Premium Member Sun Kissed Lips
I watched the sunshine kissed her toes
Slowly moving to her thighs
How I envied the sun
Kissing that gorgeous brown skin
I sat in the shade yet my temperature rose
Imagination carrying me away
To that week we first met
When our love began to bloom
We kissed beneath the moon
Our surrogate...

Visit To Antietam
Alone I arrive, walking from Frederick
over the gaps, across gentle hills
out onto a knoll
overlooking this burnished landscape.
Before me I see countless writhing rows
of indiscernible shapes gathered
in terrible rituals mid fire and smoke
darkening the sun.
From distant corners I hear
the rhythmic thud of cannon,
and from fields astir...

frozen on the vine
cryogenic flavored host
a time released smile

frozen on the vine
ice glistening in the sun
grapes hold on tight

harvest time has come
necter trapped in purple orbs
till glasses are raised

Premium Member Please Sir
Beautiful downtown Atlanta
Sunny, blue, cloudless sky
Tall, wide, massive buildings
Window glass glistening in the sun
Beautiful, well-dressed people
Gainfully employed people
Taking care of business people
Running essential errands
Contributing to the community
Pursuing positive, purposeful lives.

I take in the sights, sounds, smells
Sounds of people walking, talking
Engines revving and car horns honking
Smells...

Gladiator
Locked in place on a high cross
Swords spoke the foreword
A quick glance at eternal peace
Combat defined his wounds

Only the pen of history
Penetrates his heavy armour
Behind his shield lies purgatory
At the height of an evil empire

Cracked dried lips to steel
Exposure to the kiss of death
Vanguard to...

Premium Member The Amazon
Invisible figures moving in the mists of time,
Hidden female phantoms, masters of the wilderness
Wild, blending in as chameleons, they are the unseen.
Legend's cryptic tribe. 
Maidens veiled beneath mysteries coverlet’s of beauty,
Vanishing, as if a vapors mystic dream, created by ancient
Historic mythology.
But nay the Amazons, were...

Rain, the Story
in the midst of a lush meadow
there stands an impressive sight
a slip of a girl on a giant white horse
poised on the verge of flight

poetic in their beauty
they begin to move
and they appear as one
from head to back to hoove

you can see the giant beast
respond...

Spring Day
with squinted eyes and pursed red lips 
you 
like any little child in time 
but that you are mine 
ask me..why are we sitting outside 
I want to go Inside  
to play 
your mind cannot yet grasp 
the answer I know to be true...

Beyond the Clouds
Ascending the mountaintop, drawn to the realm eagles glide, 
With unfurled wings locked on a cruise, eyes glistening in the sun,

I heave over the crest of crags, my mind, on the dizzy brow, 
Pulled by the dew, the sunbath, the soft echoes of rhythmic
Pitter-patter of...
