Best Once More Poems
Once More
As the evening crept in
whisper of pines unfolded slowly another story,
every single instant seemed one decade;
unknown stars above blinking endlessly,
hand in hand ,our hearts unbridled themselves
and then escaped somewhere into darkness,
old moon unveiled the amazing mountains
every tree inundated by oozing silver;
under this autumn sky
enchanted by immense beauty
our speechless,unbounded moments
as four eyes met in love once...

There Once More
That sad day when you said, "It's just not there"
Such sentiments seemed pulled out of the air
For many months we'd loved and lived as one
Sharing dreams under the Florida sun
Our hopes were cast like nets into the sea
Never did I think they'd come up empty
What caused this shift was not for me to know
As 'neath...

Sonnet
Once More
Once more I dream of the islands
Once more I yearn for the sea
To see a sailboat out on the horizon
As you walk the shore hand in hand with me
Yesterday’s memories haunt me
Tearing this heart from my chest
I long to gaze into your eyes again
Lay all of my heartaches to rest
You captured my soul with your...

Watercolor Morning - Once More
Watercolor morning - once more
Pastel clouds linger
among springtime dreams,
sweet clover thistles
blush violet whispers
midst dew drops reflecting
peach blossom hues in
effervescent rainbows
against a canvas
of periwinkle skies,
while a pink chiffon glow in
bougainvillea brushstrokes
paints a brand new
watercolor morning
that we happily
share together…
once more
Good morning Soupers...

Shells Ii Death Is Dead Once More For Now
Recall the midwife
To the cenotaph
War is over
For now at least
Nothing but poppy petal buttercup remain
in tact to blow away this coming eve
Or grow from flounder's red sodden field
To flutter on a chasten solar breeze
Up and up so only downward grave
can see
So pray the world outside relent drunken
on the floral scent
Sprayed by white tailed doves...

Five Years Old Once More
Five Years Old Again.
.
Temperature scorching
The most beautiful day
To idle away
Sun smiled down perched upon my pew
In the most vibrant unblemished
Expanse of glorious sky
That left one completely content
And satisfied
.
I was by the sea sat upon a beach
My pew
Surveying the sights and hordes
Of beach dwellers within my view
People stretched out
Soaking in the drenching sun
While...

Once More
Accept equality, admit to science
That you always believed -
Why wouldn’t love be free?
San Franciscans and summer lovers
Flocked here seeking illusion.
They saw pretty colors, but no truth.
I extended my hand, warmly
You grasped it, looking onward
To clover crowns and daisy chains.
There is no understanding of
The light in shaded eyes, or
Coy words slipped from...

With the Hopes That Our Paths Will Cross Once More
Here I walk alone down a distant shore,
Watching the sunset, as clouds drift away,
With the hopes that our paths will cross once more.
My mind feels empty and my nerves feel sore,
Wishing to meet...

Once More
Shall we meet again
In a new and different place
When I see you in the future
Will I recognize your face
I know your heart
The feelings you keep from me
Why are you hiding what you feel
Do you not want me to see
We are no longer
Who we were before
Will I know you
When I answer the door
Is there going...

Just Once More
Just one more time
to lay next to you
to feel your love
and know it's true
Arms encircling
the one I so love
To kiss your lips
Like paradise above
To be alive once more
And not in this vegetative state
To feel one last passion
With the one I so adore
But like a wasted stamp
On a letter long unsent
Within words I hoped would show
My...

I Will Go Once More a Roving
I’LL GO ONCE MORE A ROVING
I’ll go once more a roving
Past my door beyond my gate
Fear and rules no more condoning
No authority berate
No more now for me to hunker
Nor to lock myself away
Loose the latch and leave the bunker
I regret I cannot stay
Take the path along the river
Cross the Heath and by the shore
In...

Harmony Once More
"harmony once more"
souls are fractured leaving angels to journey
journey to places of darkness and beyond
will the spirit within return completely whole
whole to life awakening back as a butterfly
silently the fallen carry on with such burdens
burdens of faint and diminished eyes and ears
rainfalls drop as the sky moves with softness
softness to reach minds for harmony once...

Until I'M Once More With You
Memories that can never be erased
Spirits sharing a special space
A love that would rival any love song
One that never dies but goes on and on
You never promised to always be here
And with you by my side I has nothing to fear
Your touched my heart and soul
With a flame...

Lightning, Once More
The sky is filled with lightning
and city folk watch it
The world is too much with us
and as you my know
laughter powers the stars
So enjoy watching the lightning
while keeping safe
always keep safe
Enjoy life!
Even when it seem...

Returning Once More
A feathering song,
Played upon the quills
Of winging seagulls,
Releases my mind
From the daily grind.
Glorious birds
Are the seagulls;
Welcoming all
To Gaia’s womb.
Once we’ve birthed;
Spread our wings,
And touch life;
The womb
Restores
Peace.
