Best Handful Poems


She Held a Handful of Stars
These eyes bright 
Hair the colour of night 
Queen of starlight 

She held a handful of stars 
She tossed them far 
Scattering through, 
the midnight sky 

The star that landed on me.......... 
Was my destiny 
For this star, 
choose to be.............. 
the star for me...

Premium Member A Handful of Haiku: Sunflowers
Sun looks down upon
A field of yellow flowers
Sees mirror image

Sunflowers gaze up
Stunned to see there beaming back
Their own reflection

Premium Member A Small Handful of Haiku: Nature's Process
The clamor heard in
The awakening of Spring
Dies down in Summer

Revives briefly 'til
The crisp tanginess of Fall
Succumbs to Winter

Premium Member Eyeful, Handful and Soulful
With stretched brows, while sitting in a corner
I look up from my specs just out of love.
As she lays food on table and stoops lower
Snipes me from grace of her body thereof.
With eyes on her I come there as if drugged
Feeling tickling smell of the...

A Handful of Stars: a Collaboration With Mary Jo
A handful of stars

As dusk arrives and the shadows grow
All is quiet as the stars begin to glow

A gentle breeze over the hollow begins to rise
And the grass sways under the clear skies

It dances to an ancient rhythmic beat
Calling forth a song solitary and sweet

A...

A Handful of Wheat
To sing a song charming and sweet
what I need is handful of wheat,
guess who am I
love that blue sky
not in the Twitter still can tweet!

HANDFUL HANDKERCHIEF

I have a rainbow color of like this..
Few things which helps me to be at peace..
It is not that much valuable nor at lease..
Yet, it comes always to graze my hands and cheeks..

I like it with flower prints..
Or even my initials or my name...

A Handful of Earth
We are but a handful of Earth ...let go the unwanted ego

Shed that mask of greatness and let the love freely flow


In every act of forgiveness in this very moment

Know you are freeing yourself more, than another with this movement


Reality is in this moment alone

Allow...

Premium Member A Handful of Haiku: Ripples In a Stream
Summer plays 'til Fall
Winter is a thoughtful time
Resting up for Spring

Winter's nearly gone
Time flows into Spring again
Well worth the waiting

Seasons come and go
Ripples in a long long stream
Constant yet changing...

The Name Drifting In the Air Became a Handful of Ashes
Where should I go and find the name 
blown away in the air it became ashes a handful of memory. 

The name I long for, gone with the wind 
is the name branded in my heart. 
To carry all the way to the burial ground...

I'M a Handful
''I'M A HANDFUL''


"OH MY GOD!", I WOKE UP SCREAMING 
MY BODY SOAKED IN SWEAT 
BOTH HANDS SHAKING...POUNDING, IN MY CHEST 
IN MY NIGHTMARE, THERE SHE WAS, SHOUTING OUT 
"I'M A HANDFUL" 
AS SHE HAS SO MANY TIMES, EXPRESSED 
WITH DEVILISH EYES AND ANGEL FACE 
AND...

A Handful of Lakewood Sand
at the risk of red leaves unfurling
perennial wisdom just outside
my peripheral vision, their lace
reeling against the city potholes 
sinking deeper into ich bin ein Clevelander 
despair,
i confirm that it is spring
trumpeting its pageantry  
as the pages turn,
just before the summer of past 
regrets ferrets...
