Best Landing Place Poems

My mind is open
It has to be
Yet find myself tangled
In a tree

The wind
It wrestles
The safety line
As I hang with the birds
A silent wind chime

The breeze of emotion
Blows this way and that
The sun on my skin..
Then the rain caveat

My silky voice trembles
I just shouldn't be here
"The...

“Wind Song”




When the rain came it raised a torrent
music, little by little, raised the levy
light pebbles rolled over one by one
took with them 
all their 
flotsam and jetsam
leaves ferrying Black Ravens carried on

Brook babbling
listened to the birds scrabbling
singing -
“I am the one!" 
"I am the...

Free At Last

How I wish one day just wake up to lie down under the rain
In the dessert, watch an apparition of water and discover 
a fountain where I can approach wet my dry lips imagine 
the unimaginable a harvest in the desert that would...

'Twas Christmas Eve and cheer abounded in the humble English cottage!
The olde house rang with joy since the children knew with certain knowledge,
That Santa and his reindeer would drop by for a visit later on that night!
Mum was fixing Yorkshire pudding and a goose for...

The Fly 
A fly is buzzing about in the backyard, it sounds like
a small plane lost in the wilderness of space, finally it 
skids and lands on the green lid of the cistern.
The pilot of the plane must find a landing place as it
Is dark...

We knaves had orders both explicit and dumb:
Scare the blazes out of a management bum.
Thunderstorm weather rocked wide Prince William Sound,
Feisty gales pouring rain all around.

My partner and I took our overseer
In a tiny smoker craft quite rough to steer.
Motoring south, mighty gusts drove us...

Too many icy drinks, too fast on a hot summer day,
my core center chilled beyond bearing and
my stomach reacted violently, throwing up
the offending liquid. One can’t go from steamy 
summer to frigid winter without a physical reaction.

That glacial feeling from last summer,
came back to me...

The aeroplane lay upside down
At the bottom of the lake quite profound
How it came to be here
Was a story that was not clear

There were no markings that would last
And it appeared the water landing was not very fast
Its door was blown off the side
And it...

Floating, hovering like a dragonfly 
in search of a safe landing place. 
Roaming, travelling, never settling, 
in constant fear of desolation. 

No beginning, and no end in sight - 
 - suspended animation - certain of my creation, 
but hanging like a mist or balanced...

Tell me my friend what is the upside down
Surely please do not frown
Maybe the day saw night and took his crown
So that darkness shall drown
The lack of light is not a plight to me
Funny as it may sound
You judge me literally
Because im black and brown
The...

When you release the 
words, your curled fingers 
burst into flame.

It was an ancient filth, 
a bird fighting in the mud- 
house of quote-unquote.

Someone navigated 
over the bald heads to find 
a landing place for a cuckoo.

Between real and fiction, 
you cannot write a hymn...

Confounded landing

The more complexity developed within me, was
Not finding solution to get rid of inner tragedy
Still, increment further to it added, blazes in love piece
A torture, torment and scattered feelings 
Dismantle of roofs ahead and falling down of pillars
A long sigh in it, impulse to...

The most base and magical place on Earth.
inspiration strikes in the most unlikely of places.
On this grand planet there are only a few select spaces, I am at total peace.
A crab by zodiac, 
Water bearer at birth;
Where sand meets sea,
The most base and magical place...

I was placed in my boat of reed,
And placed in a river run smoothed.
I drifted past Moses’ landing place,
Nestled amongst the rushes,
Past Peter’s boat and fishing nets,
Past reformed basilicas and black minarets,
And factories of manufactured creeds and needs.
All, whose only purpose is to clean the...

Through The Looking Glass
 
 
“As the moon peak its glory, a glimmer of shadow reigned
on her eyes as she saw the mirror to her soul”
 
Through the looking glass
A devastating mirage has been cast
Alluring my greatest fears and desires
Enchanting my heart and blinded eyes
Unable...
