Premium Member Raising the Blinds
A morn's sun raised the blinds
As sunlight pinked the clouds
Its colors fell across
My lap, tinting my words
Sublime, pen and ink tried
To contain sentiment
As they spilled blue
The blinds dissipate
As words release truth
High the sun rises
Its light controls pen
Slower the pen
Then pauses, waits
As the day wears
Colors painted
Artist...

Premium Member With a Flickering Lamp
Life was not a bed of roses for many women
             who, for time eternal,
             left footprints and paved our path, so we can walk with our heads high.
             often...

Premium Member The Skeleton Key
Wrought liquid metal, hued in the fire's of hell,
Pored into a castings shell, then hammered well,
By the angry fists of Satan himself, behold the skeleton key.
Accursed by evil's malevolent spell, one size fits all,
No locked doors can resist against its turnings twist,
Opening unto the supernatural's...

For You and You Alone My Love
You called out of the deep blue sky
When twilight was running from the night
Woke me from a fitful sleep
On the verge of dreams
Could this be reality
All the times you wonder in to my mind
When real was fare from itly
When your voice could only be heard...

Premium Member English Weather Forecast
I pored over my weather maps contriving a prognostication,
Of the weather forecast for the consumption of the British population.
It comprised all the towns, villages and shires from A to Zed,
To include the burgs of Wookey Hole, Wyre Piddle and Guys Head!

The towns of Crazies Hill...

My Valentine Soup
Endear my soul
I pled for quest
Your fortune lo and behold
I pored for adore abreast
Lacked in notion by the unspoken magna cum laude
I searched for hope, peacefully at rest. 

Love thirst for lust
I longed for my desire
Your fortune lo and behold 
I last for a threshold...

We'Re Number One
Another week has come and gone
The TV’s playing; the game's just coming on
They pound their chests and drink their beer
Waiting for game time to shout and cheer
All the rounds of drinks they've pored
Their team has won; a victory scored
The fans go wild; scream “we’re number...

Premium Member To Be Or Not To Be
She bled into a river
Where shallow water slept
Pored the essence from her soul
There with the leaves 
That autumn wept

As drop by drop she finally broke
The surface there below 
Broke through that murky river
Where her life began to flow

A stream of white upon a breast
Of dank...

No Umbrella
There is always something to write about
I don’t know what you are talking about
There is always something to write about
So take out your pen and spell it out
I was trying to book a ticket for a flight
 but the one hour flight turned out to...

Overwhelming Darkness
Panic as I open my eyes to a new world.
Leaving the path of seeing and hearing,
into this frightened  bundle of humanity.
Tried reaching out to feel the air,
Cannot even hear the sounds of living.

Fear of the dark was closing in on me
Hated to be in...

Love Bud
It was a winter morning, last November
I recall my journey from my treasured frames
of amasses, titters and acts.
 
She was in an intermediate between red and blue
and her eyes pored out from all realisms
with a smile unnoticed on her face
Yet she burst forth with glory...

Missing
I sifted through white sands in coastal cities, longingly searching for an 
answer; explored every cave, and even sailed all over the Atlantic.
Asked every soul that I encountered, but it was all in vain,
there was no single solution that would soothe my pain.

Shared stories of...

Dedication, Love
I never had a person in my life that understands me like you do,
you came into my life unnoticeable and i new that you were true.

I pored out my heart  to you, and you listened when no one did,
you pored out your heart to...

Sounds In Shades
I bleed I bleed
- no pain you felt
I cried I cried
- no tears you melt.

I smiled I smiled
- no charm you shade
I whispered I whispered
- no thought you made.

I bleed I smiled
- no ***** you ensured
I cried I whispered
- no words you composed.

I waited I...
