Hurricanes
All you do 
All you say
All you write
In the jasmine garden
Is a frenzied drum
Bludgeoning me to dumb

Intensely numb
I feel
As I reel

Yes
As you come
Rising on tides
Passion overflowing
Deluge in the veins
In a hurricane
You dominate
You violate
You annihilate
My stability
My balance
My tranquility
My nonchalance


You seek to 
Sweep me off my feet
I...

You
mirror 
my pain in
deep lines of dark
thunder within a jar of hurricanes
mocking the sorrow I sing in silence
watching sadness
vaporise 
as I
grieve
and
quiver
to the tunes
of piercing walls
where shadows of regret dance to the moon...

As of this writing, Florence is intensifying and threatening the shores of the Carolinas.  She is dangerous, even in her early stages and may pattern herself after Katrina or Irma.  Should she do so, the candles, oil lamps, flashlights,...

Premium Member The Morning of the Hurricanes Part 2
 Continued from Part 1 

The Beggars ’neath the balustrades,
and broken Children, Chambermaids,
are running wild from wraiths, afraid
	of dreams where death redoubles.
They fritter time with tattered threads
(from ragged clothes they’ve left in shreds),
crocheting hoods to hide their heads
	and faces, full of rubble.
But many things will...

The Bishops bathe in Babylon
while Princes, prancing on the lawn,
watch Queen deflowered, pale and wan.
            The King dares not defend her.
The Horsemen, holding broken reins
the Morning of the Hurricanes,
sigh “it’s no use, it’s all...

Hurricanes - An Acrostic, Shape, Dizain Poem
Hurricanes howling from tropical storms.
                Under watch and warning, everyone waits. 
            Radar shows rotating clouds taking form.

You touch me with tender words
of how much you adore me
my dreams are about you
and all those tender things 
I want to do

no other man could make me happier
we are one and that is the truth
together for a lifetime
through hurricanes and rainbows
you make being in...

Hurricane by any name is a dreaded beast
Monster winds guide every turn and twist

Clouds cluster in enormous darker shapes
Heated moisture dominates form they take 

Dressed in cloudy eye-wall winds rotate
High gusting speeds foretell its arrival date

As eye of the storm approaches a landfall
Communities begin making...

Hurricanes
Winds cause the damage.
They say time will heal all wounds.
Rejoice in the thought!

Heat conjured the atmosphere, conception began 
Upsurge in pressures stirs water, birthing Nature’s Giants
Roaring sound with mixed helicopter-lion, ranting on the ocean
Ready to visit nearby lands, better prepare, don’t run!
Immersion is so strong, horrifying wind at 120 to 200 mphour
Can’t be controlled, God keep us...

Evoking Hurricanes
They paused neath a tortured moon

whence delusions met ocean tides,

eliciting a volatile hurricane's vortex

masking intentions in the sand,

whilst escaping horizons surrender

under disillusionment of passion

in posthaste of sunlit warnings

hidden amidst clandestine shadows,

wherein night no longer shaded love

Jose, Harvey, Irma, Gert,
Cat. Five puts us on alert.
Howsoever they are named,
Mother's fury can't be tamed.

Churning, roiling, liquid wall,
looming four-plus metres tall.
Floods of biblical expanse,
survival just happenstance.

Wind whipped into lethal squall,
hammers those trapped in its thrall.
Sturdy palm trees battered flat,
Man and beast lost habitat.

Follow devastation's...

The Seasonal family 
of Mother Nature
and Father Time
When it comes to
a family reunion,
they are never far behind.
Winter, Spring, Summer 
and Fall.

With her daughter 
always on the ball.
Mother Nature’s 
first born, Weather.

She is not as predictable 
as we would like to think.
Weather may be 
in the...
