I’m giving you two weeks’ notice
And then I’m evicting you
From my heart
You haven’t been paying your dues…
Lingering caresses
Entwining embraces 
Passion laden kisses
And loving whispers
Are overdue
LONG overdue

What’s worse…
You’ve been trashing the premises
With your careless words
dirty excuses
filthy put-downs...
Your childish tantrums
And misplaced anger
Have littered my heart

You have been...

On either side the boarded footpath lie
Still pools in swamp with sinister reflection
Dull images and scenes of life gone by 
Suggest to heart a darkness and dejection

But did you notice, let the view beguile
Where sun now lights the pines in vivid green
And winter-stripped to elegant...

Time can fly with inspiration and fun
Releasing our soul to love with our gifts
I walked a mile, without notice to run

Thoughts, grains of sand, collect in sand dune drifts
The ocean curls and wraps hugs around me
Releasing our soul to love with our gifts

My words can...

He woke and saw his beloved asleep with one breast partially exposed

And with his fantastic limp he works his way to the kitchen

He made coffee for her with croissant lathered with jam

Gently he pulled at the exposed women and gestures with the tray

Happily she wakes...

When you went to our favorite place,
and you sat in your usual chair.
When you lifted your stemmed glass,
did you notice I wasn't there?

Did you furtively check the door;
look for my face across the room?
Did you surreptitiously search the air
for a hint of my perfume?

Did you...

You don't notice how I feel
You just think everything is real
But my pain can't heal 
When you are just standing still

I am always hurt but you don't know
It is not like i want to show
If i told you, you will blow
So my emotions, you will...

When will you ever notice me?
I know you see me as one of the guys
But I’m someone who loves you
Yes, I love to do things you love to do
But something in me has changed 
I don't want to just be your best bud
I want more,...

Dear Poetry Soup Members,
My dear husband passed away peacefully in his sleep July 29th at home. We were together over forty years. My daughters are here to help and comfort me. My husband wanted no service but military honors. He served four years in the...

Malicious, plotting squirrel, 
sends its angry rain.
Oh, the liberties it takes, 
with my precious fruit trees.
A pear slams into my head; 
my temple, burning blue.

Rising lump of blue, 
from vicious squirrel; 
swelling on my head 
from his violent pear-rain.
Standing beneath the pear tree, 
I do...

Crystal tears fell from the sky, 
over mountains and leaky valleys,
freeing echoes from another time and space...
through lacerated seams in Mother's wall;
funny how ancient wounds still bleeds.

Just the other day I caught sight of the shine,
finally looking through eyes that see, 
but time is not...

Dimensions of height, width and length
The watery phases, of ice, liquid, vapor
Life possibly is less after three days without water
The Holy Trinity: Father, Son and Spirit

We are a spirit, soul and a body
The number, 3, indivisible
Triangles with pi are used in Trigonometry
Me, you and God,...

Important work matters get screwed
By thoughts at the office too lewd
So it seems normal
To have work less formal
Make casual Friday all nude...

I have come forth via political poetry.
However, I am being ignored.
The Courts have violated my constitutional rights.
I am a United States of America native-born child who is now an adult.
This human rights violation is not worthy of us.
Social injustice scars.
The Judicial Branch knows that well.
Their...
