Best Lilted Poems

In the May-time of my life
time bloomed each day a prickly boll –
but I, like the softest cotton within such a sharp seed  
swaddled in the purity of security 
for what seemed like eternity 
a lamb in His white embrace 
especially when flocked in...

Rest now
O restless heart
released in ebb   to flow

ride the other side of the king tide rising
buoyant your movement in rise with the waves
Rise! to beyond where breakers break long-suffering shores
pitiless the grind of stones and shells to grounds -
ride the quiet swell to...

Lithesome fingers trailed along 
the ukulele’s  frets
as Lilah played her dulcet lullabies.
Swaddled in a blanket, smiling,
lay her little lad,
looking up at her with large blue eyes.

Lilah lilted, “Sleep, my son,
for tranquil dreams await.
Lull-lull-lullabies for you I sing.”
As she crooned mellifluously
lulling him to bliss,
she watched...

He whispered softly

against every inch of her skin

She could sense his yang

Still in need of her yin

His sweet wistful breath

lingered once again

beyond borders within

His presence held authority

of what once belonged to him

She knew the time to leave

before She would give in

This would be the first...

Child, Oh my child.
Words whispered on broken breath,
A baby soft palm upon my breast.
I can feel the wind stirring my hair.
Even as my sightless eyes attempt to stare.

Child, Oh my child.
The disappointment overwhelming.
Choking the sweet lilted voice til warped.
With needs desires,
dreams that had floated near.

Child,...

PER CHANCE TO DANCE

Synchronization
Such a simple concept
As per a preconceived precept
And both so delicately adept

Fluidly
As one
Every step a humble bow to the sun
Every beat a reverent blessing for the moon
While ceremoniously synchronized to the tune

Every move calculated by an ovation and an overture of purity...

YOU, ME, THE SUN AND THE SEA

I can envision your smile when mine wasn’t evident
I can hear your laughter when mine isn’t prevalent
I can imagine your glowing eyes beam while mine were dim
And I hear your voice of encouragement when my life grew dim

I can...

Personality commodities
Melting into bar stools
Progress beyond God
to make the ultimate partnership.

Profits will come less belligerently 
When lovers sing praises in lilted voices.
off tune liquors pour needlessly
down the throats of the well fed.
Meager brotherhood looked at me 
With a dirty f...

He will wipe away every tear from their eyes.
there will be no more death or mourning or
crying or pain, for the old order of things has
passed away. Revelation 21: 4 (NIV Bible)

I AM IMMORTAL

Explode from mortal to immortal,
in one forgotten breath.
Intake of first light.
Born, through...

Once at dawn upon a wandered mind when day had dwelled within a dream,
I stood afore a forest's edge and gazed upon its refulgent grassy gleams. 

Home alone on a house's deck perched before the acreage of the backyard's lawn,
I watched what grew on the...

The Wicker baskets

Rooster crackled, fresh new day!
Sun arose planting gentle kiss
on the Earth's fore-head....
A cottage in the woods stood elegant
Lilted the cool breeze outside so pleasant!
Woke her child this mother, filled with zest
A long embroidered green skirt ,
made of flax this mother had draped...
Adorned her...

Edenic paradise garnished 
by perfection magnificence
ushered mankind’s first parents
to an intimate relationship 
with the sovereign Creator…

Garden, freshly-dressed 
served as venue for blissful worship 
around welcoming trees' canopy 
lifting freedom praise of thanksgiving
while boughs lilted along adoration breeze…

Flower terraces of resplendent hues 
wafted delightful redolence to...

We sat on a quiet porch by moonlight splashed,

the night was dusk and Halloween is near with fear
and clear starry night with shadows of lilted pumpkins on the porch as goblins eat there way through little children's trickery triter bags and children scream from the haunted night with a full moon and parties...

The solemn tune of slumber,
lays heavily on the keys,
as life's adventures wander,
passed in a soundless breeze.

As the sleeper mumbles,
Laying there with ease, 
the mother watching humbles,
all daily angst appeased. 

The dreamers breath fumbles,
slowly drifting within,
a lilted sound crumbles,
the space a tempered din.

On a shift she...
