Best Invite Poems
Awake, in full bloom, fruit of the season
honeysuckle droplets upon the skin
a sweet invite, Spring being the reason
wind of the wanting, magic shall begin
Chasing Chaenomeles, sun shadows dance
this rendezvous, melodies in motion
breathless lush beauty- swaying in a trance
in pastel bliss, days float with emotion
Cloudless sky, warm and invigorating
sun-drenched meadows, free… full of energy
airy, delightful and awe inspiring
petals of floral thrive on this journey
Awake, in full bloom, fruit of the season
Picture perfect, Spring being the reason

1st Place
For your (Turkish) Delight party invite
Sweetshop had shut up for the day
The Maltesers decided they were going away
They packed their gear in a Dairy Box
To climb a Glacier called Mint Fox
The sweets were now all wide awake
There was All Sorts of fun to make
The Chocolate Mice ran to and fro
As the Mars Bars to Mothers Pub did go
The Kit Kats spotted the chocolate mice
Who ran circles round the Coconut Ice
The Bounty cried because it was in dry dock
Time showed After Eight on the big wall clock.
The Marathons were training very hard
Some Pear Drops and Spangles standing on guard
The Smarties were looking for a Treet
They moved up market to Quality Street.
The clever Jelly Tots got carried away
Too lazy to walk, they used a Milk Tray
The Dolly Mixtures danced and sang
To All Gold heavy metal music -Bubble Gum went off with a bang.
The Coconut Mushrooms went timid and shy
Wine Gums and Chocolate Buttons looking up to the sky
To see The Sherbet Flying Saucers whizzing around
The Liquorice Torpedoes stayed firmly on the ground
The Jelly Tots decided to loop the loop
Chocolate Cigarettes played Polo20and Hula Hoop
Sherbet Dips joined their friend Liquorice Straw
The Crème Eggs were lying flat out on the floor.
Even the Minstrels loved this free for all party
The Humbugs were picking a fight with a Smartie
But they all agreed a good Feast was had by all
As they danced the night away at the Aniseed Ball.

Stop, smell the roses and take your time.
Drop your guard and open your prosaic mind.
Walk under a shower of fresh rain.
Look up beyond the common plains.
Up in the sky sets a big beautiful rainbow.
Take in the beauty, drop off your mental cargo.
Feel the breeze of the wind as it leaves no trace.
Soak up the rays of the sun beaming upon your face.
Lay out a blanket, in the middle of a flowered field.
Close your eyes, whelm up the smells it yields.
Nature rendered you into a peaceful slumber.
Enchantingly inviting you back into her chamber.
Just a brush of your hand
sends my pulse racing
a blush on my cheek
imagining where it could be tracing
Torture being so close
and not being able to kiss you
feelings of remorse
inviting a visitor or two
Wanting you so much
unable to hold you in my arms
avoiding the slightest touch
because I can't resist your charms
Bound to you, body, heart and soul
never knew such passion
my desire I'm trying to control
as the potatoes I'm mashing
Dinner is finally served
I'm going to be dessert
acting all shy and reserved
hard, when you want to flirt
Rosy cheeks and sweet round hips,
Invite a kiss from parted lips.
I need to hold your supple form,
To feel your pulse, to keep me warm.
In my mind the thoughts allure,
The thinking that has no cure;
To probe the secrets of my will,
And hold the dream that keeps me still.
Let's while away the dusk of night,
That brings the morning rays of light;
To find some happy dreams of pleasure,
And share the time with all we treasure.
Stay right here, rest at my side,
And share the hopes that I can't hide;
Speak soft words that can be known,
And never leave my thoughts alone.
Let's try to find and trace a thought,
And bring to light all we've sought;
For joy that binds your soul and mine,
Will keep us close till the end of time
Sea, I stand upon your shore with the rising of the sun
as sanguine shades of dawn blend with an amber sky
Long before the overture of the human race has begun
I walk barefoot on the sand; to moonlight wave goodbye
When Ra lifts his heavy eyelids and wipes away the sleep
his light is softly reflected in prismed mirrors on your skin
I wonder what buried treasure lies within your waters, deep
before my mind is captured by the wake of a dorsal fin
Your smooth satin surface is without wrinkles or ripples
It beckons me, "Come," as though you invite me to suckle
upon the salty crested waves of your whitecapped nipples
and I, powerless to refuse, would wade in and gladly truckle
Oh, rising Sea, would I were the wind to caress your cheek
I'd not tire of lying cradled in the ebb and flow of your tide
Rocked by gentle motion, I'd be entranced by your mystique
Upon Earth, you are feared and worshipped, far and wide
Your voice lashes out with Neptune's roar when riled in rage
but tranquil in peace when moonlight shimmers in the night
What dark secrets you hold would fill a novel, page after page
You evoke my mind with questions; flames burning, you ignite
I feel Him in the still of Night
and in pools of warm sunlight
I sense His shadow by my side
as twilight lengthens hurried strides
I invite Him in my modest home
pour over His Holy Tomes
Allow space between us to disappear
And come wantonly to merge where souls dwell
To feel emotion whether far or near
And to absorb love's rushing captured swell
To invite the heart's pulsating desire
And enter love's realm with a freedom found
Released from the bondage of days prior
Breathe in the fragrant scent of sacred ground
To open a closed heart without a demand
And share what we have to fullest amount
In joyous union come to understand
That the purest love will never doubt
I come to you with my love to invest
Hear your heartbeat as I quietly rest

Let’s invite everyone.
I don’t want to invite Twinky.
Why not?
He pushed me.
When?
In first grade.
Can you forgive him?
No.
Why not?
He stuck out his tongue too.
You are grown now.
Can you please get over it?
I am not ready. It hurt my feelings.
You are forty-two years old, can you PLEASE remember that?
Sure.
Can we invite Twinky?
Absolutely not.
Eye roll now.
Allow space between us to disappear
And come wantonly to merge where souls' dwell
To feel emotion whether far or near
And absorb our loves rushing captured swell
We'll invite the hearts pulsating desire
And enter this realm with a freedom found
Released from the bondage of days prior
Breathe in the fragrant scent of sacred ground
To open a closed heart without a demand
And share what we have to fullest amount
In joyous union come to understand
That the purest love will never doubt
I come to you with my love to invest
Hear your heartbeat as I quietly rest
If I invite you to come and join me
on a merry-go-round,past this sky's blue,
will you join me to find that childhood key,
if I invite you?
Our unicorn dream to touch rainbow's hue
again on dragon's back to be carefree
on that wingless horse a journey long due
our childhood merry-go-round,come join me!
Somewhere must be there, the days once we knew
beyond this mundane life come and let us see,
if I invite you!

An Invite
Now son, I think you’re sneaky,
not just lying for my good.
Your cover-up was cheeky,
I’m not blind or wear a hood.
A nursing home’s not for me
nor assisted-living room,
I’m keeping my own money
and that place is not my doom.
I’m old but like strip poker,
karaoke makes me high,
known as practical joker,
kind of partial to the rye.
I raised a suited dandy
that’s so rigid in his ways.
Yeah, schooling came in handy
cause you left for longer stays.
So son, you have your answer,
I’m not going anywhere.
I’ve hired a belly dancer
for my party if you dare.
It might be my last birthday,
if you come, you must have fun.
Your sister’s having her way
bringing beer and loaded gun.
The gun is for my present,
it’s protection I don’t need.
So come and let’s be pleasant
and we see where it will lead.

PLEASE DON'T IGNORE THE RSVP
I'M TRYING TO GIVE YOU

Soft, dewed, sweet, purple lips
inviting the admirer to drink
pearls of warm, red nectar
without crushing – from deep inside
