Best Headfirst Poems

I want to feel my whole world burst,
see scintillating stars dispersed
across a vast unsullied sky
the sapphire blue of my mind’s eye
when life was fresh and untraversed.

I want to jump again. . .  headfirst
into the ocean, be immersed
as passion’s billows multiply.
I want to feel!

Wake up,...

Earth whispers
I hear her
I am here to receive 
Nuances of flight and discovery
My senses warm with anticipation

Fragments of hope and desire
Pain and loss
Arrive on moonbeams of broken glass
Shattered dreams sing
Delivering silky threads 
Glistening with seedlings of rebirth

Opening my heart, I close my eyes
Leaning forward into...

Blossom

Enchantment



Does my heart yet beat?

Beg you - listen close, for I cannot



I fear it has halted its inexorable drum

Swallowed, as I, by the depths of your gaze



Brown - dark as black, against a dazzle of perfect ivory

I plunge your eyes headfirst with abandon - swimming...

I forget why, but I looped the loop,  
dropped headfirst into daydreams,  
felt post-dizziness summation of self,  
recombobulated in the inch above the ashes.  
I'm the greater half of the tribulation,  
the in-breath of the ether,  
burnt up in...

Ronald was a tough old ram, the biggest of his breed
Daniel was a clipperman, renowned of shearing deed
Many sheep were sheared that day and woolless they had fled
Before those two met in affray and battled in the shed!

Ronald, he had seen old Wallace wrestled to...

ROWNTREE PARK

I have found green here
bordered by white lines
that meet then veer off
into infinity, perfect symmetry,
peppered by flashing yellow dandelions.
These, and more, colours
I have found here.
I have found dreams here
in the bats that sing for singles
and scream for homers,
in the cleats that pound
a rhythm as...

“Her Ever Changing Moods, the Rapture Reprising”

Lavender seduces symmetry  
in her ever changing moods
slips into something more comfortable

a swollen tangerine sky 
moves its tongue over 
the blues of her violet harbour 

calling the siren home 
through ultramarine waves gone all
rippling golden roses mulberry wine

diaphanous...

If I had wings I'd outdo unfortunate Icarus
and soar up to the highest stratosphere.
Buoyant, I'd defy gravity and glide
over the loftiest snow tipped mountains,
or slide headfirst towards some deep vale
where iridescent meadows stretch into verdant pastures
where myriads of healthy cattle graze, placidly, alone.
 
If I...

I plunge, headfirst,

to swim your eyes,

     and search their depths

for the soul of your mysteries ...

     should I lose myself among the eddies there,

or the shadowy abundance of your passions

     pull me to...

I’ve got quite the appetite for mayhem

Thus from these desires my problems stem

Prozacidasical perhaps

Headfirst into Lady Luck’s slaps

Crumbling foot stools under my whim

Why if there be heart ache, I’ll have a bite

Just another serving of bittersweet spite

Bring on my many foolhearty excuses

Distilled crones, my destructive...

Sky-to-land flashes,

Sometimes it’s hard
being a poet
Writing your lines
on the busiest day
Spilling your thoughts
on the page as you know it
Even those days
you’ve got nothing to say

Words are just words
I heard somebody saying
I don’t agree
when they come in this style
Poetic words that
a poets’ displaying
Often bring tears
but they often...

From out of the Mist a Dragon roars…
His second breakfast is way to late…
Yes, He’s our Super Duper Hero Dragon…
In search of Innocent Love, Truth, and the American Way.

He can bound tall buildings in a single bound,
Tho his wings help him a lot.
And he’s faster...
