Best Hold Poems

I made for you, a castle
but I built it in the sand
I steadfastly tried
to constrain the tide
but the bastions didn't stand

I planned for you, an Eden
with needs to see us through
but the ripened fruits
had corrupted roots
and I fed them all to you

On the edge of silence 
beyond the mossy-muffled stone wall
a wind chime chants — faint, like falling sparkles of stars—
honeyed musings of a wind spirit on the move
from west to east a bridge of broken chords. 
Cosmic animation stirs my domestic pulsation
in a supple sweep...

When I hold your hand, happily you trek along 
Because you trust me to know where I'm going.
Listening to my stories, you hold my sight intently
Being proud of me, you consider me all-knowing.

Whether I teach or not, you always learn from me
For innocently you believe,...

keep dwelling in the clouds, my mentor said
and shun those who would drag you through the mud
their heinous wish to keep you seeing red
is Satan's lure for drawing out first-blood

for in this world malevolence abounds
and evil lurks in every corner nook
to tit for tat in...

Sir Poet, Hold True To Thy Gifts Long Given


Sir poet, why hast thy broken thy true pen?
Are not thy words intended to help and heal?
Pray thee, returneth to world of gentle men,
Let both thy mind and fevered blood softly spill!

Sir poet, why hast thy burned...

Reject not sweet musings memories evoke
Extolling elation our passions amplified
Assuage the fervid hints emotions stoke
That eternal vows once callously denied

Let bygones fade away on skyline bright
When your smile scintillates opaline skies
Being my delight of Venus every night
Blazing flame of desires glinting your eyes

“Share the hopes...

Sensuous allures float in pulchritude of white swan
Upon your lotus pond, arousing visions of romance
As I see you there where pink blossoms dance
And kiss your presence in ambiance of golden dawn.

Nary a cloud foreshadows my blue sky of tomorrow
As primrose emotions evoke blossoms of meadows;
In...

Hold Thy Judgment, Truth Is Not So Well Seen

Hold thy judgment, truth is not so well seen,
Thou, that sits in luxuries and decides!
Fate and Time, can both, off the path careen
Into deep hellish dark, that life oft hides
While this teeming world, its course wildly sets,
Mere...

To Timothy Lee, the best of me

When your hand holds my hand
	we stand a complete one
		as only two true hearts can do.
Let the strongest of winds come –

I revisit this realm where your actions cannot,
Will not,
Stifle my nascence

Never enough,
Never enough

Forward, 
I tear away my onion skin
Embattled by a loathing humanity

I throw solaced emotions
Upon rusted turnstiles

Spinning round,
Right round,
Round,
Right round

But, you wouldn’t call me baby.

Good. 

Because I was told
That it is better to be...

With ball point in hand, 

 I write anew. 

 On tablet command 

 my point-of-view, 

 one for only them to see.   
     
 These two objects won't disagree. 

 I hold them together, as they do me....

In this closet darkness pervades,
the door has been locked from the inside.

Curled in the corner, eyes shut, she remains.
Unseen demons there await
outside in the moon light.

Flowers dance while sweet music plays as
lithesome images pass through her mind,
her dreams laid bare this long lonely day,
all of...

Hold Those Tears Falling From Sullen Skies

Hold those tears falling from sullen skies
floods below, drown the sorrows of lost men.
Enough that mother earth hears thy sad cries
angelic sorrow, weep thou not in sin.

Remain thee stalwart, life may reverse tides
heaping on thee, joy in sweet future...

Treading upon a thread so fine,
Finer than the strands of silken twine,
Ah, but we err in our belief,
For hair is but a protein sheaf,
A chain of amino acids, aligned.

Is this vision but a mere mirage?
A fleeting, ghostly apparition?
Why then do they link,
Like carriages of a...

Dreams are never-ending
Fluffy and white
We want them to be solid
But we know they never might

The world is made for dreamers
Who's transient ideas
Fly high above all others
Floating careless of all fears

Beyond the stars will twinkle
When the lighting is just night
Our dreams, they will caress them
Like a...
