Best Lamps Poems

White Angels, Glowing Lamps

When the wind blows, 
down from the great north, 
it brings a mighty frost. 
Do not be afraid. 
Just because something, 
makes you tremble, 
does not give it the right…
to win. 

Stand tall, all who guard the gate. 
Do not look away....

You kindle the lamps
Little earthen bowls 
Holding circles of mustard oil
Wicks like snouts of desire
The sober flame radiating rosy heat
Smell of ripened wheat

I get my book
Under the leaves of the light
Words snuggling in delight
The dissolving nights recede
Your pent-up poems, all freed
You become the words

Swords disappear
Mightier...

Winking on before the stars
These little airborne lamps
Endowed my neighbourhood
As my wide grey eyes feel good

I must stop and stare
As electric insects appear
No one can take this view from me
As long as my eyes can see

Dancing in their flights
Guided by several lights
Every dawn must die
As...

Tiffany lamps
were invented by
girls in 1888,
to soften the walls
of quiet parlors
where men were
hushed and sat
politely with hands 
between their knees.
.
The grace was
stolen in 1992 when 
the symbols of New York
Jets replaced the flowers
and Tiffany
lighted laughter
on the bars 
where trumpets blare.


*I recently started a home job...

It is the light
From a man's heart
Reflected by women,
Sensing every part.

It is the zenith
Energizing every limb
But be careful
Gluttony is a sin.

It is the soul of men
Loving glow of women
Made to glow
By the hands of the Almighty.

It is women galore
Partaking of splendor
Like full moon's glow
We were...

Revelation Lamps

Morning light peaks through the trees
Scents of heather wakens with a new day
Crisp air has beaded the dew upon the leaves
A hollow tree trunk is used for hide and seeks

A burst of sun warms the clearing well
Bouncing off the lake as natures school bell
The...

Treasures in
Dark places, saving

Keep the Lamps Burning
	(Mathew 25:1-13)

Where will you be when I come back?
Oh! Where will I find you then?
What kind of time have you been spending?
Are you ready to see me again?

When the millennia’s have
Burned through the decades
And the years have tasted the day
When the hours...

My words are frail, like the pale souls of the night to light which they seep - tenderly fragile - -
as though they may weep if not well received,
as though his response may burn - like fire to cloth, into my temple,
and his eyes cause...

LAMPS

in a room full of wine bottled peagreen lamps
velvet cushions of blood pillow tramps
liquidised assorted pots
constellation drops
sanity
stops
vanity
landing dark red clots
a fresh new beating life stops
as life seeps into dark soggy damps
in a room full of wine bottled peagreen lamps...

Villanelle : Lodged in our cockles Aladdin lamps hum

Lodged in our cockles Aladdin lamps hum
   Always to heart stings awakened to soothe
That in lost coves and caves melodious strum

When in dark lonesome nights owl hoots knock glum
   None to hear silent...

Valentine sweethearts Lacy and Don 
Sing about how their lights go out and on
Neighbors can hear them singing out on the lawn
That shaded couple, Lacy and Don 

They look like lamps a shrimpy guy said.
Oh course they are agreed Shawn and Ned
What are lamps? Asked...

When I take long walks at night, the streets are lit. 
Tonight the night will be orange as if we are always celebrating Halloween,
feeling like whiskey with each paced breathe. 
I stare at houses each time I walk, to see what may take place.
I’ve seen...
