Best Ingeniously Poems

In those bleak fields that so quietly lie - stilled as graves,
Between where the thin wind creaks and upwardly heaves,
Unseen feet can sometimes be heard 
Shuffling through the old woods discarded leaves.

For i have seen those strange distant lights
That detach themselves from heavens spilling crowds;
When dropping over the blindside of the little ridge
They rise to leap from cloud to cloud.

Impossible angles of inexplicable darting momentum -
Inwardly gyrating wheels now ingeniously turning;
Marvelous these the strange crafts of unknown design...
Yes - I have seen the night skies burning!

For well i remember as a reckless child
How i stole out to ascend that one forbidden hill:
Cast deep plans, set the clock ticking accordingly,
Rose, wrapped myself against Novembers raw chill.

Deep inside the Beech-hanger the Plough was struggling,
And over the despairing holt a devisive breeze...
As, of a sudden, on the edge of swirling darkness -
Showered particles upon vapourous ethers so violently seized!

Oh the hissing bolts of sizzling electrons -
Brilliance of colours like a dying meteors last rites!
Anti-Graviton paradox of mastered equational conundrum 
Igniting the latent freeze within winters sharp night.

Radiant orb held aligned by polar-opposites forceful lines,
Spinning upon a singular point with such consummate ease;
Roaring furiously liken fabled dragon of Arthurian legend,
Hot breath licking across lines of illuminated trees.

Momentary seconds that crept alongside an age enraptured
Amidst tumbling thoughts of  - "Just another Alien abductee"!
Then, gently tilting starboard, accelerating smoothly away,
Vanishing over the stacks and tiled rooftops of nearby Walton-Lea.

Often have i wistfully pondered in ever hopeful, watchful years:
What was it so witnessed as it hung before me in suspended flight?
And - with many cramming thoughts - groping for answers sought -
Recalling the wondrous moment of such an awe-inspiring sight!

Premium Member I Am the Clay - 2


Hands move hastily, yet gentle
Perfecting the design
With creative fingers, sensitive
To the clay, the substance
That will be brought to life
With the subtle hints of wonder

Hands shift clay into pieces
Of earthen vessels, vibrant pottery
Terra cotta turned into graceful
Jugs. Pitchers and bowls
Delicious works from strokes
Both tender and persuasive

Hands change clay from soft
Supple mud to delicate formations
Brought to life by enchanting
Hearts who give their best to craft
Out containers worthy of the word
Perfection, flawless, whole, finished

Like God above who works with us
Creating something wonderful, 
Something complete and whole
Because He gives the very best
To those He ingeniously changes
From dirty mud to miraculous creations


Jeremiah 18:6 (KJV) O house of Israel, cannot I do with you as the potter? saith the Lord. Behold, as the clay is in the potter's hand, so are ye in mine hand, O house of Israel.

The Funky Train 2

The nation is very rich indeed
 But,
 Wounded out of loss direction;
 Wounded out of lack of ambition,
 Weeping out of lack of impulse;
 Wounded out  of  lack  of imagination,
 Ingeniously exhumed out of the citadel of corruption;
 While the funereal ultimately boils down to collateral.
  
 In the funky train,
 All the hoo-ha-noisy end in fisticuff;
 And the crumpled greenback hand-out cough,
 The law has nothing to handcuff,
 
 Kindred turned puppets loss of self-worth in defacto state
 of war,
 Faced with hemorrhaging despondency;
 And splitting migraine disillusionment,
 Miseenscene always greeted with fire and blood,
 With fight and struggle half dead;
 To trip in goats, straw and timber carrier,
 Inevitable suicide spoof of teeming commuters,
 And a caterwauling exodus end in thousands of legs under
 the sea,
 Carnival of Sharks tongue-smacked and praise-devour the
 abundant feast;
 While the aura of authority has little or nothing fish,
 Often, sudden delight death cry of assailed victims,
 Owa! Owa! Owa! {Alight}
 A cry for shanty shambles bus stop,
 As if deaf, the tyrant conductor
 Lashes out in blinding curse and abuse;
 Pressing and shoving for umpteenth fares,
 Owa! Owa! Owa!
 A plead for just a measure of tonic air, 
 Hard kerchief to wipe off addicted
 Face of invincible gossamer,
 Diabolical gene galloping in strides;
 As compassion flees from rigours of heart of stone, 
 If swearing non-syllabic stunned altercating joust;
 Could result in re-ordering of the lost world,
 Plotless plastic lives of mean children of absentee Mamas
 and Papas,
 Would gauche braggadocio even king to brutal submission; 
 O! wretched loud louts touts,
 Very loud louts touts foaming with tactless forming;
 A riposte, may your road be rough,
 A stamp on every man destiny.

New Age Chemical Warfare

Memory, oh sweet memory, 
Lost in dizziness, but found.
Excite my brain to joyfulness.
Pain is sometimes lethal.

Memory loss is just one warning sign of this war.
Add to that: headaches, depression, oh, the mental pain.
Numbness, insomnia, heart palpations, and more, begin slowly.
From whence comes your sweet deception?
My bones ache and I cannot breath in life's memory.
Lost in my own fantasy with dizziness.
Imagining a chemical warfare against the masses.
Common folks like you and me but subjugated peons.
Mushy brains found among the young and innocent thin.
Excite my brain with your pondering, my muse.
To you, I owe this mysterious inkling.
A powerful infiltration, a plan concocted by the enemy.
Chemical warfare on the home front, disguised as pleasure.
Marketed among the unsuspecting –

Aspertine is thy name oh great deceiver
In the name of sweetness, mental acuity dies.
Freely given to the soldiers in Desert Storm, diet soda! 
The Plan: Conquer a great nation from within.
Infiltrate every aspect of life in a well-laid plan.
Thus, food and drink may lead to a nation's folly.
Slowly slipping away our freedom to be US. 
Quietly.  Unobtrusively.  Ingeniously.  Irreversibly!
Joyfulness, visit me; remove this pain for it is great.

Chemical warfare kills.
Sometimes, we close our eyes.
But we must not.
Lest it becomes lethal to our free nation –

His ingeniously crafted Narnia glows
With so many wise and amazing prose
Love shining brightly through its text
So very eager for what comes next

This beautifully written tale’s foundation
Brought my own heart so much adoration
The lessons within its astonishing pages
Reminding me that this story truly engages

I was blessed to read it all word for word
And it was a world that I certainly preferred
The story brought about such tenderness
All the beautiful animals so tame and generous

No other artist holds so much of my respect
As this wonderous writer who is so perfect

Proud Mommy

Let me paint a picture descriptively
going on ten he's only three
ever so smart as can be
with an enormous vocabulary
mastermind of colors, numbers, and ABC's
Harvard, Yale, or Stanford University
a bachelors or masters degree 
a bright future I foresee
runs like a flash of lightening
a grand finale of fireworks of energy
mentally challenging 
exhausting me physically
yin and yang personality
on the cusp of gemini and cancer, diversity
brilliant ear for musicality
memorizes songs effortlessly
carrying and holding a tune in every key
happily he love's to sing
smiling, friendly, cuddly
at time even naughty
sense of humor ingeniously witty
lives fearlessly
a bundle of purity
Loved and loves unconditionally
blessed spiritually
tremendously I'm a proud Mommy

Ingenue Is a Name

Wind that blows from the north,
Crown this little note a breath.
Wind that blows from the south,
Gather these dreams and make them the truth.
Wind that blows from the west,
Fan this body away from boredom test.
Wind that blows from the east,
Gather up for nee what is best.
Wind that blows from beneath
The earth,
Crosses over 
And stretches your wings over,
Empowers and strengthens 
This -an ingeniously evergreen.

A Girl

Mighty years vanished,dinosaurs diminished,
Himalayas cried out,tsunamis screamed out,
clouds hid out tears in pain, trees fade out in vain
'A Girl' truly static, in the world of highly ma tic
   
   When she born she said" I will grow wild,
            I will reach the heights of my father sky,
            I will hon our with blossom my mother earth,
            I will face the battle with invincible wind,
            I will run my roots as long as they unravaged,
            I will get tickled of cool breeze,
            I will enjoy the warm breath of the sun."
    
   But her arms nibbled away,
         her roots nipped away,
        her hopes chilled out,
        her dreams faded away,
        she was decayed wise,
        she was pruned Bonsai.
   She said "I'm born to grow wild.
                but I'm made to grow mild."
    they said" You're carved beautifully.
                   You,re cared wonderfully.
                  You're valued thousand fully.
                   You're respected awesomely.
                  You're worshiped heart fully."
      she said"I'm carved, I'm carved
                  I'm carved ingeniously,craftily,
                  socially,legally,morally
                  And finally into a Deadwood."

 Mighty years vanished,dinosaurs diminished,
Himalayas cried out,tsunami screamed out,
clouds hid out tears in pain, trees fade out in vain,

Expeditious plus instantaneous fox,
apt o'er daredevil weathering, parts his lair,
ingeniously resourceful, and nevermore...
     ~~to be outwitted,

A lackluster canine, faults, near some stillness
of his stoop, peering somewhat from droopy sights
that influence his realm ... dropped at points from his
     ~~elongated snout,

Heydays concerning happenings, abandoned 
diverse anecdotes from a dog sovereignty
when challenged through a fox determination
               ~~engaged fraught dispute,

Lacks nurtures endurance, sequence marks a fox,
the dog's yoke weighs domestically heavy--
*"The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog"
     ~~end fox versus dog.

Abound

Humanity.
Men,
Women,
Children,
to the millionth degree.

Visions,
numerous,
countless fantasies,
paired with hopes,
synonomous dreams.

Beaming through eyes,
thoughts often materialized,
come ingeniously to us mere mortals,
brave of some to share, others come to realize.

Some,
Others,
afraid to pursue their own,
leaving us wondering.... why???
hold back!!!!,
extinguish fears,
allow your hopes to resound!!!!
Simply because they are yours,
allow them to ABOUND!!!!

What a world this would be, if we could materialize all our dreams.

Intensity of Being Gifted

The intensity of her minds wiring
into her writing leaves some people
feeling uncomfortable that the rug 
of shag comfort has been ripped apart
from underneath them and that was not her
intention, in mentioning that shes so gifted,
and prolific, that shes making it hard for them, 
too just drink inside the depths, of the carpet
fibers of her minds intelligence, weaving
creative ingeniously into the design of just being
who she really is, an ornamental carpet ,to display,
 on the floor of peoples discontented and
uncomfortable jealousy in their weaving of 
the fibers of the rumors of her being " Just Crazy".

Stream of Conciousness

collaborate, elaborate

conductively emasculate

submissive, entanglement

collectively salivate.

redistributive contemplate

delirious encapsulate danger-

actualize, substitutive penalize.

collectively, abstractness from

radiance to darkness.

antagonistic death rate

the fallacy in dead weight.

reprehensible antithesis

conglomerate esophagus. 

speckled and corroded,

constructively demoted.

perniciously solitude, destitute and longitude.

contact free cohesively elongated actuality.

substantially creative

ingeniously innovative.

crafting masterpiece from thread

contempt breeds success or death.

the effort does not translate to achievement.
