Best Glistering Poems


Premium Member Scene From a Bike Ride
Like a royal parade,
they waddled across
the well traveled thoroughfare
teeming with autos crawling to a stop;
otherwise road rage reduced to admiration.

The regal drake held his head high—his eyes
piercing straight ahead—oblivious to the traffic.
The obeisance of his trailing brace
reflected a solemn reverence to their chief.

A mother hen...

Black
Black

I lay in my bed, alone with my thoughts, looking around,
But all I see is black.
Black is what remains of a disregarded rainbow,
Colors that used to spew from my mouth as happy words
Are now the slow drip of a faucet, thick black sludge drips down...

Butterfly Whisper
A butterfly flutters

In harmonious motion

In hush tones

        It whispers

Yarning the secret

In mellow lures

With glistering gestures


A tinge of speckles

A lasting fluence

No Name
You, the love of my heart, beauty is exactly what you define –
You are the rose of the valleys that possesses a scent so divine;
And your eyes so tender, far more like the moon glistering bright,
So is your love unto me, not half so comparable...

Unlimited Love
Oo…The Holy Light my love
Thou are my ultimate light I long for
I would not like to pay attention to light
sparkling on the Giza pyramid
I do not take an interest in light
glistering on the Borobudur’s summit
Also I do not care about the blistering shine of the...

Giggling Girl
Son: 
Mother, up in town
I met a giggling girl in gorgeous gown
Who shines in her hue of brown

 ‘Oh giggling girl’, I said, ‘will you be my own?
North and south, I have flown
And together we shall tour up and down.’

Much fine words I have blown
Much...

Neverland
She sprinted through a rugged woods
Away from free loading fathers and filthy no-goods,
Away from tear soaked teddy bears and lungs filled with smoke.
She found herself unmoving, crying in the arms of a weeping willow oak.

She is what remains of a fractured household,
A rotten tapestry of...

The Crying Wild Creatures
THE CRYING WILD CREATURES.
Nzongi Mwero.
Oh, we recall the bygone times,
The days of the golden past,
That chirping with our merry mates,
Flying around the parks,
Gone the joys of the nests,
That freedom restrained,
Coming at our will in parks,
But hindered and chained in the parks.

Oh, we feel painted at...

Naked Truth
My eyes are glued to the naked truth 
Fresh from the shower her body looking smooth 
I only want to lay my hands on her tender breasts
Her nipples are protruding,partially hard like a dried raisin
My feelings are escalating and rising
As i think of spending my...

The Stranger
The Stranger...

The Stranger came knocking at my door
With her eyes and lips veiled with kindness
Her glistering teeth is like diamond
I tried to read her lips
But i was arrested by her kinky smile and body settings
And tickled by her insecurity

The stranger lived far away miles and...

Painting a Poem
Widened lips in an inert ligneous watercraft, fervent eyes gazing the moon,
Her mane of aureate intriguing hair in a wintry night, the dark cranium of a dainty loon.

Unblemished ivory gown glistering under the umbra of gleaming stars, wondrous quietness of the prodigious forest.
Benign fog over...

Jewelry Love
If you could read my eyes
You could understand
But one thing,
The disease in my heart.
These poems I create daily
Solely for you
And yet  my tongue
Hesitates to utter them,
Have made a big sore
Corroding my heart
Every single
Ascending day.

I bless my pen
But curse my heart.
This worldly tradition,
That a man...

Premium Member Adieu Papa Madabe
A patriarch, legend, family man,
A moral compass,
An arc of proprietary leadership
With octopus creeping advancements
Inducing pomiferous effects
Africa’s epitome of
Struggle against racial oppression
The Great Madabe :
An iconic glistering personality
Held the jugular of
Erstwhile oppressors spell-bound.
According to him :
‘Exhausted all peaceful means’
Spear-headed weapons of warfare
To tackle this gamut
Rivonia Trials...
