Best Proximity Poems

The night air crisply flows
 Brushing past my sill with a caress
The final blooms of the magnolia's
 Upon her skin, fragrantly confess

 
Autumn’s wildflowers
Sit upon the boudoir ledge
Handpicked this morning
To their beauty she makes her
 pledge

 
Chiffon sheers move
With a sultry waltz in the breeze
Moonlight...

When we dream of distant shores
we overlook the beauty 
sitting right before our eyes...

Before we part, be close to me-
As close as sand is to the sea,
As close as leaves are to the trees:
As close as close as we can be

I want you near, like Dawn's first light-
As near as Stars are to the Night,
Near as birds ere...

Museums are quiet except
For crackling parquet floors,
Wooden squares, a game board:
Checkers or maybe chess 
Of various right angle, grain striations.

Parallel to paintings in oil, red lines
Begin a court for pickup basketball.
But whether subjects of famous battles
Or romances between animals and gods,
They are stuck in a...

i stand as a human
with limbs 
roots
offshoots
and plenty of chlorophyll
blood and protein
know what i mean?
i live the star life
not the rock star life
i live on a rock
one  rock  helps
keep balance from another
rock
... the moon, the earth
the moon is leaving like a tree
she can't...

Bright future in sight, 
have emerged victorious and mighty, 
having fought a ferocious noble fight. 

Engrossed in discipline water tight, 
have made the kinked pathways straight, 
delivered gains, booties in right hands. 

Burying the past darkest night, 
stamping, kissing the tormenting plight, 
we, l celebrate...

My body showers your fragrance 
Every breath i take has your taste 
Feeling your touch makes me glow
Those soft words now echo 
The dew drops on my lips has warmth of your heart 
With bowed eyes when i think of you
I squeeze in me the...

it took so much for me
to stop myself-
such close proximity,
my need dangled in 
the air, standing hair
on end. you are
an imposing threat,
sent to deliver flesh
from bone, destroy all
in your wake. i will take
my chances, dance
around your taste buds,
tickle your chin with
dirty nails....

Our currents combine
in a proximity effect,
the power ever growing,
the energy collects,
every charge in our path
alternating and direct,
there can be no resistance
to what we'll erect

When the power is flowing
we cannot elect
to bypass or break
or seek to deflect,
these surges and urges
they must go unchecked,
we must follow the...

Proximity of Anonymitity

When a person was near the proximity,
Of lack of identification and anonymity;
Am so alone;
Might moan;
Abundant peace appeared a proclivity.

Picked a seat right next to you 
repulsed by the mere inches 
obstructing me from a touch;    
X marks the spot, 
invade my fragile bubble; 
Make me a little bit nervous, 
invite me to snuggle; 
Together is so much better, 
your vibe...

no
i don't
want to
splatter

i 
don't 
want to
be the blunderbuss

of
love
i would
like to be

the arrow
or dart that
hits your heart
or at least your bullseye...

The sun radiating a warm glow
On the Eastern horizon
Softly and slowly it is rising
Bringing joy for some and sadness
For others, all living in close
Proximity of each other

If we only knew what each life
Has to face each day, we 
Would be more compassionate
Those that face challenges...

Near Or Within Proximity 

Would be nice if near or within proximity,
Of where we found respect and humility;
By God bless;
Bible possess,
And I am thankful He gave it all to me.
