Best Modelled Poems

Wake up a little earlier; another troubled night
But the remnants of pre-birthday make-up still do their job remarkably
Smile for the camera; these pictures are keepers, so realistically modelled for
Thank yous for unthoughtful offerings; why hurt feelings after all?
A dozen friends all come along; it's not...

Thumbs Up To The Journey

At the footbridge as it bridges past from present future and perspectives your
feet might be-come and may be-go confused be-fuddled as can your mind before
the shadows rainbows feathered fancy pastel tunes and blues-bound colours
can memories anticipation taking-stock ooze pots and lots...

"Curly Sue" is pretty simple,
Romcom of nineteen ninty one.
Strangely recognized an impel 
To rhyme her out to make her mine.

For those born in twenty something
Curly Sue does not ring a bell.
Said "You're curly Sue, sweet dumpling!"
To my niece. "Who's that?", she compeled.

As a child, when...

The crust which formed 4 billion years ago,
Only came at the extinction of the molten,
And the microbial mat fossils keenly found
From 3.48bn years ago, came from graphite! 

Over 99% of all known species are extinct,
Vital life is just a specification of yourself,
You will influence others...

There is hope in every nation; for the word is going round
That Australians are sweeping fear away'

They are ardent freedom lovers, who are forged as hammered steel, and thery're gathering supporters
Night and day!

There are honest dinkum judges, who are standing by
The truth; there are coppers...

Robotic


Silver tears fall from robot eyes;
The hole for a heart has broken wires.
The love we used to feel?  I have removed those files.
Robotic people lead robotic lives.


Delete memories to give us more memory space;
The undistinguished face is factory made.
Modelled in clay; repeat again.
Another body,...

Villanelle: Hope not hope against the landing of the craft MH370

Hope not hope against the landing of the craft
The sky is deeper than the oceans of the earth
The last voice you heard does it come from the loft

What goes up must come down be it...

Dan's on the mezzanine 
asking where the mayor lives 
I'm on the dole line, 
wondrin bout conservatives 
The man with the leg cramps 
boot camps wheel clamps 
says they cut his food stamps. 
Look out son, 
he’s packin a gun: 
God knows why

In the life of a child, stood two men and one died.
Charles was the biological father.
Shorty was the step-dad.
Rich in love this girl was.
However, there was one similar.

Carrie was her mother.
In her mother’s life stood two men.
Both are dead.

The fear has form.
The girl’s mother is...

A white dress full
of winter cherries;
hair curled with frost.

A carried box
tied with string
and legends.

Maybe a modelled
sister,or a ghost
from a playground.

You turn to
circumnavigate
in all this road

and wonder this is
as gone as a finger of snow
in April.

The sky is hasty
with a flock of clouds,
broody, hanging -

The next...

If i were an earthworm
I say that rhythmically
as if I were singing "rich man."
.
If I were an earthworm, 
there would only be WHEN..
.
Life would be time
as light and dark would
come and go and my gut
would feed as if I had
a tube to my stomach.
.
Life would...

WATERCOLOUR  PICTURE


Strolling slowly in  tree  pergolas
Golden  roofs  and  sunlit cupolas

Caress  of evening breeze warm
Fountains  with  their arching  form

Sunlit water   in the distance -
Million silver-fish in existence

Fairytale   beauty  royal  palace

We must get into
such a deep fellowship
with you Lord our Saviour
that we loose ourselves 
truly in your presence.

Modelled in fact in 
your image indeed, 
that the shackles and 
entanglements of the devil
is broken off our lives.

Thus,
welding the two-edged
sword of God's word and
arming our mouths
with high...
