Best Nouveau Poems

On the coals,mutton stew and
fresh pitta bread rolls;
the wedding was just lacking
red wine from the vine-
a word from a king
and all was
fine !

She hails from the planet of elegance.
 Stepping her tender footsteps to earth, a mesmeric 
rendezvous where sun, crystal blue sea and golden sky
 meets. 
She walks on water to make her way...
 So sophisticated so fabulous. She walks gently on 
clouds showering definition of grace....
 Ooh this lavishness is stunning. 
The way she adores...

Is that I do not like gargoyles staring at me
Or dragons or lions perched above me
As if I will become something to eat
Any second now I am so happy
Every second now to live in America
Where I stare at white walls 
Grateful I am not known as part of the food chain
However vegetarianism started
However I admire...

Le Vrai et Nouveau Hymne National – Translation of Kevin Gilbert’s « The New True Anthem » by T. Wignesan

En dépit de ce que Dorothea a dit
sur le sujet de la terre brûlée au soleil
vous ne l’aviez vraiment jamais aimé
ni essayé de lui rendre plus précieuse
vous polluez toutes les rivières
et répandez des détritus sur chaque...

enduring 
          texture&tones
cleave
grapple
      & scatter  upon
the canvas-
fluid
 perspectives
create 
       atmosperic
flights of fancy..
enthuse,spawn
then trespass within-
lavishing loving

"For Newer Poets..........."


Yes, I'm new to poetry
Can't you tell it by my face
My eyes are bright, my skin is soft
Ok, I'm fifty eight
But, I haven't been writing
All those years I've been alive
Ok, there was that one rhyme
I penned when I was five
But that really shouldn't matter
It wasn't meant, for public eyes
Ok, I...

SYNOETIC NOUVEAU

misreflect moving introspect
factualize flamboyancy
in radical fanaticism
a gaudy malady
of catastrophic 
opulence

beauteous summaries blush
nontoxic pure embolic
stencilling set lustrations
a nubile Nirvana
of candy essence
affluence

fantastical floatation’s drift
bulldozing stagnant brains
decomposing in doubt
radical rare rhapsody
of loves chastised
lavishness

Hello--My good son Wisp; Hello~   
You are such a handsome fellow  

And your manner is quite mellow 
Watching Willow dressed in yellow: 
As the musician plays the cello, 
To its tunes, you both gently sway -- 
And crooners began to bellow 

Hello--My good son Wisp~ Hello 
You are such a lucky fellow...

The kids today have a lot more responsibility,
therefore, some are quite precocious before they are
three,
They refuse to be told what to wear, and have an affinity
for designer gear,
The young ones are quite competent in taking care
of themselves, because their parents are working
harder than ever,
The children have learnt to be streetwise and clever,
Many are latch key...
