Sublimity ...
Bandit of my breath

Summer blond tresses, pure
Splashed with amber bands, aglow

Slowly twisting down to soft, stretchy curls
Bouncing on your shoulders with heavenly mirth

Like a child bouncing her bed Christmas morn
Exquisite texture, as combed Turkish velour

Meant for the delve of only tender hands
Loving fingers that...

Languid Offspring
No matter what fact-

some movie told you that,

they preened and printed,

stole what fitted,

and then sold, 
and said it thinned it in...

No matter how much fat,

no matter what they attack!

Some movie told you that,

the filter will stack-

the rivers will run into rags,

and then some movie told...

Languid
Wholeness of our bodies
have surrendered. Now made up 
of only bones and flesh
No mystic, No divine
	The constant mind
will never rest
	The rebirth will 
be lost

leaving your soul as a shadow
          quickly hitting the shade
Painful as a mother...

The Languid Girl
Last night
As my husband was working
He came across a sight
That gave him intense fright!

A full bodied apparition
A girl, angelic of face
with black hair to her waist
Dressed in garb
From another time
Her expression
From another dimension
At him- through him she stared
A circling of energy they shared
It poured outside
Yet...

Premium Member Languid Lapping
Languid waves lapping the shore, syrupy 
Lulling winds in hiatus, abeyant
Water clinging, sad to let go, sticky
Silence piercing, unnerving the gulls to mute, tranquillity
The wetness lingers on, soaking in, clammy
Water colors seemingly apt for painting such a scene, self portrait
Prevailing wind, the conductor, hushes the...

Languid Lover
Maybe it’s monstrous to murder
the music in my mind
Turning tunes to feathers
floating on currents of ether
like waves on whiskey seas
Black cherry bourbon and soda
sweet with heat
bubbling in my blood
converting my consciousness
reverting me to who I should be
making a mockery of my insecurity
my anguish and anxiety
as...

Premium Member Languid
She had a languid demeanor as all eyes were upon her.
Her face like porcelain, never allowing a smile to occur.
Along the red carpet she gracefully stepped slowly,
Not considering others, as if she felt them somehow lowly.

An elegant gown draped over her perfect goddess like form.
On...

still lingers near my window
crisp leaf in the wind...

Premium Member Tree Talk
When soft zephyrs are stirring arbor leaves
Words may be overheard whispered from trees.
Leaned against a trunk, my ears on alert,
This ranger heard soft words from a filbert.

A long-limbed water oak, leaning half bent,
Wryly some cross-cultural humor lent:
“An ancient Sawtooth oak nearby is king
His wide girth...
