Best Panes Poems

When winter paints those frosty ferns on my windowpane
I find myself a little girl up on your lap again
In that old house there by the sea where you wove that tapestry
With all the glorious memories of your life upon the sea

With weathered palm so deeply...

I find myself a little girl up on your lap again
In that old house, where you wove that coloured tapestry

Panes of glass in my soul divide me from my past
Portals that serve as the windows into my future
Yet clearly distort the visions of my present tense
 
Frosty panes on the periphery of my vision ahead
Wavy, hazy rain streaked dusty and cracked obscure
Coats the window...

behind these glass panes

here she contemplates nature

never feeling rain

the sun never warms her face

she's merely an observer...

Dear, Window Panes
I admire your commitment
the way you position yourself to bring out the very best in others 
you hold up frailty like a tiara on a newly crowned princess
as you align yourself 
strategically 
paralleled with others 
your placement is impeccable
so please excuse the constant...

bricks can shed so much light on a neighbourhood 

in fact much more than the windows ever could

Night's breath has coalesced 
upon the window pane
etched a landscape all in white
with forest, trees, and lanes.

Frosted panes, once so plain,
now graced by nighttime's sighs
lift lacy limbs toward white capped hills
below a pristine sky.

Comes the sun, the night's undone
and I can almost cry,
as night's trace...

Puttied Panes

	Puttied panes, encased in pink-primed steel
	Watch tiny rivers wend their downward way,
	While puddles form where thin green spikes reveal
	A just sown lawn, where one day I may play.
	New houses; salmon bricked, like some great quilt.
	Stark line posts, straight as soldiers, stand erect,
	All razor edged,...

Astonished sadness lies within her eyes, 
who will see past the panes of ice, 
a gasp frozen before her lips, 
her shoulders cold and shake of this,
the lies, the lies, she tries to hide,
but sadness lies so clearly in those eyes...

it's somber this evening
this rain falls fast and hard
echoing like your words
against the panes of my soul

i struggle to breathe
with this weight
upon my chest
as it suffocates me

i feel lost
somewhere
between this darkness
and my dreams
hopelessly trying
to find my way back

sleep doesn't come
within a mind
that's tossed about
in the...

Frosted window panes
hundreds of unique crystals
children scratching ice...

patterns; ferns and trees
frozen shattered panes of glass
fresh etched natures art

I will remember you in the brightest sunshine!
And even better in the misty rain.
Or in the sounds of crunchy, Chicago snows.
Beneath our running lovers' feet!

I will remember you each bright time
I smell popcorn, so warm and buttery.
Oh, how you relished that treat!
Snuggling next to our...

The shattered panes of this brain 
jagged lines and deep deep lanes
do you see the road signs? what's the way
Is it down this road? pray pray
The filters change in snapshots and shudders
Blonde highlights and soft brown color
her hearts still soft and pink in deep
It's just...

There once was a house down the lane
With tattered shutters and broken window panes
They said it was haunted
But I was undaunted
I went in normal and came out insane

And old man came to answer the door
He said, "If you want to come in, are you sure?"
The...
