Best Rapturously Poems


Premium Member Our Love and Passion Always Forever

Since I met you my love the passion I harbor 
for you knows no bounds or limits since our
love is genuine, special, and from the heart—
I’m always so happy to be with you my darling.

Every time I see you and we meet, it’s just like
starting over with both of us so glad to see one
another with that hopeless expectation of two 
young kids with emotions and passions on fire.

Your kiss and your very touch release an ardent
and burning desire each and every time we caress 
and hold one another so rapturously becoming one
at times shedding true tears from Cupid’s very arrow.

Our love—so special, so sensual, so real and true
gives us that unique reality of two lives and souls
united as one and always so very confident in our
lives as lovers, best of friends, and soul mates. 

When we’re together no explanations are ever needed
as we both are most confident as one in what God has
star-charted for our destiny on this Earth and in Heaven
since the power and passion of our love is endless.

My Darling you and I are very much one of Cupid’s
success stories in finding one another, being always
together, and facing what life throws at us each day
yet always secure in our destiny and love as one.

My Darling, only poets and dreamers can see and
visualize the exquisite beauty of what we share in 
our life together and the love we possess which is 
worth walking to the very ends of this Earth for. 

My Darling, My Love this is indeed our storied walk 
together through this life and later into that infinite 
Cosmos beyond as two best friends and lovers as ONE
in love with true passion always forever and forever!

Infinite Expanses

I cherish you betwixt

                the spaces of darkness

                           & white lightning,

      creative spiritedness

                     amidst insecurities,

     Chantilly lavender lace 'neath

                       abrasive gunnysack burlap,

       mid late night news & poetry of early

            dawning 'pon acquiescently sleepless nights,

    'tween whispered wisps of lilting light

                      and duskily echoed shadows

                          catching twilit moonbeams whilst

                                       stargazing midst your eyes,

                 enveloping infinite expanses

                                         which rapturously
                                    
                                                         invoke none other

Premium Member A Teardrop's Memory

I was young, working in the back duct; when the elders started to speak
A joyous moment has arrived, open the flood gates for LOVE unique
As they rapturously paraded down the contour of the young man's cheek
                                       AS HE SAID " I DO "
As I looked out the mirror of the young man's eyes; I too wanted to run
A Love so true, an oath to entwine Together; Always and Forever as One
I smiled contently, for I knew in his words pure Love had begun
                                           " LOVE YOU "
But then the boom's mooring snapped : whipping Her into the deep blue sea
I lead a brigade of my peers down the trail of my forefathers glee
We marched that same trail , differently : in sorrow, despair and misery
                                    " ALWAYS AND FOREVER "
Onward I bravely lead my comrades to a desolate place where we would die
I know we were not the only tears this young man's broken heart would cry
He never had the chance to hold Her, to kiss Her, to say I LOVE YOU or Good-bye
                                           "  L  E  N  O  R  E  "

A Return Journey By An Auto Rickshaw

An auto rickshaw, a carriage
Like a tortoise
Returns
Along my obsolete graveled
Road.

The auto rickshaw rolls on:
My bucolic 
Rocks
Mirth of a birth,
Rapturously.

The auto rickshaw passes by a
Nuptial hall :a
Bride
Stands in the splendor
Borrowed.

The auto rickshaw pauses before a
Rural maze :
My
Career  knocks get
Mocked.

The auto rickshaw, the three
Wheeled, creeps through the 
Nostalgia
Scenting textbooks 
New.

The auto rickshaw halts now
On a lap, 
For 
The road is lost in 
Fog.

Disciple of Desire

A fragrant flower left by the glamorous gods
For me to praise and panoramically ponder
A monolithic maiden rising from the pods
As each day my hopes grow fanatically fonder

Within the day she is the shimmering summer sun
Within the night she is the mated magnetic moon
Oh the wishful web that I have spontaneously spun
So I may wakefully wallow in my candescent cocoon

A congenial carnivorous Venus fly trap
Feverously floating toward her fallacious fumes
Euphorically embracing as her wings begin to flap
As I find myself in one of her tenebrous tombs

Left to rootly rot as I rapturously retire
For I shall be known as a disciple of desire.

Earthquake In a Tea Cup

"Earthquake in a Tea Cup"

the earthquake 
rocked through 
a pink haze 
soft and powdered
scent of lit smoke
flaming fires 
hot oven baked 
green apples 
ripe skin sizzled 
and popped
ice cool cinnamon crisp 
lemon peeled martinis 
black russians and they're 
ripped unfriendly cousins 
Long Island Iced teas and
Asian Pear Chit-Cha toddies
osmanthus oolong trading
asset smiles flying under 
the Roger Ramjet radar
exploded rapturously 
candied petals floating
hearts marachinoed
stevia sweetened cherries
skewered and buttered up 
mercilessly on the q.t. 
roses burnt apricots
she arrived shimmering
in the clouds 
a seduction 
ruffling feathers
in their 
crème de la crème 
tea cups shaking 
their quiet worlds up
dominoes lined straight laced, 
drugged and shot 
they all thought
it was the second
coming 

the world 
was her stage 

the fall out 
was atomic 

their shadows
scattered 

nuclear imprints

incalculable,
the numbers

Allamanda, Our Trumpeters

Opening my eyes after a night long rest
I cuddled in my soft cushiony bed
And looked outside my sunny arched windows.
The glorious king was lazily greeting
My cottage garden laden with white garden chairs 
Around the green lawn glistening with the night's dew.

My heart warmed and a smile curled up my lips
To see my burgundy and yellow allamandas
Rioting my curved casements.
After devotedly worshipping their sun's majesty
They embrace the fresh monsoon breeze
To gently swing to its tune.

My blooming buttercups wait rapturously
For me to potter around and rest
Beneath their intoxicating fragrant bowers.
Then full throated they blow 
Scrolling open their gold and purple trumpets 
Towards the glowing eastern horizon.

The frail winged butterflies
And the feathery curved billed sunbirds
Welcome their invitation to excavate 
Their juice filled syrupy tunnels
Prepared overnight for their little creamy bellies,
Thus keeping the trumpeters continuously obliged.

I lay out my table with my pearly lace tablecloth
Pull my white garden chair to watch
Blissfully the honeysuckles joining the guests
As they pop in and out their beaks sipping their nectar 
While I sip my aromatic coffee from freshly ground beans,
Life meant no past, no future, just the present to behold.

Premium Member Chalice of the Night

She visits me in the darkness of night;
a soulless winged creature of vampire lore.
A shadowless shadow that shuns the light;
she softly scratches at my bedroom door.

With my heart pounding, I opened the door;
rapturously under her ghoulish trance. 
And after we kissed, I craved something more,
as we swirled in the throws of our blood dance.

And we waltzed to the very edge of time;
drinking deep from the chalice of the night.
Slightly nervous, my anxieties climb,
for every vampire's kiss starts with a bite.

Yet, as befitting creatures of the night,
our silhouettes morph into bats in flight.

Ark

"Ark"



books have eyes here 
they sense things 
through the turning of leaves

strange chapters
they listen to small sounds
loud lives lived quietly

they are grounded cells
measured by rings 
in untouchable ancient territories

somewhere else,
Amazonia 
sheds tears

she cries 
for her children, 
and herself, to be saved

the violator 
rapes her body
he beats her until she is dry

he doesn’t hear her 
he takes and takes, from her,
what he thinks, is his

her pain, his pleasure
he undresses her 
the way he likes

her children 
he mutilates 
and discards

the bounty, his treasure
the air to breathe, sullied,
becomes much thinner

when the soul collectors came
they only saved 
the purest energy

the books have eyes here
they watch, they listen 
they see things unseen

through other dimensions
measureless to man
they record his story 

eventually, the ancient ones ascend, 
with mother Gaia, her daughter Amazonia, 
and all creatures, their children

through strange waves 
they take new leaves 
freedom to breathe

they are the higher vibrations
rapturously transported 
to the better worlds

the story recorded 
in each book with eyes,
chapters from all the leaves 

stripped bare, 
remain with the violators
who now stand discarded

unwanted, 
left behind in despair
crying their tears 



(LadyLabyrinth / 2022)

"The trees will tell their secrets to those that tune in.” 
Steven Magee



"They claim this mother of ours, the Earth, 
for their own use, and fence their neighbors 
away from her, and deface her 
with their buildings and their refuse."
Sitting Bull



"We have enslaved 
the rest of the animal creation, 
and have treated our distant cousins 
in fur and feathers so badly 
that beyond doubt, 
if they were able to formulate a religion, 
they would depict the Devil in human form."
William Inge

Those Ruby Lips

I want to sensually taste and devour those ruby lips
Mysterious, sultry, desirable and so impenetrable 
Will this be my night of sheer ultimate ecstasy
Or a night lost in a cold frigid non giving heart
Will those lips open and rapturously possess all of me
Or shall they remain closed never within my reach
I so long to be lost in your wild fiery passionate kiss
But shall I be fulfilled or only intolerably tolerated
For years I have gazed at those lips in lustful want
Is this my moment of fulfillment or my Achilles heel?

Echoes On the Mist

Listen intently to echoes 
   wafting off the mist of
   exalted mountains whispering, 
as designed poetry 'neath ether
   rapturously incites secrets 
      of versed journeys' resolve
 while quintessence reawakens
  'tween passages of stardust
     and eclipsed lunar moons,
knowledge of a lofty universe 
   lavishing abundant resources,
      whorling sumptuous seascapes

Premium Member Grown To Love Cowboys

Please don't speak his trumped up name

Like ValdeMore
and more
and more hard-played cards
in my competing hand,
history echoes such dark memories
fettered, now and then,
by death's final reincarnation

Because some will claim
his was a name
for Boys will be CowBoys
all White the privileged 
well-capitalized same,

An unspoken name
for Wild CowBoy Lost,
a martyr for washed out
useless 
stupidly competitive lives
following red's latest overpowering authority
shifting and shifty
while barely surviving Followers
deny, or even religiously
rapturously celebrate 
Earth's final redhot climate death

And others will take up his StraightWhiteMale
miseried DeathCulture tune
and persistently 
resistantly speak his name
as if its virally true 
red white and deadly blue,

He was wild;
A cowboy who could buy your ranch
and you
and all your neglected and abused riches
for tomorrow,
and all Earth treasures
borrowed from health manifest,
destiny of win/win Wild Liberating Bounty,
beautiful green democratic Us

Who barely remember
his weaponized
violent
CowBoy name.

Romantic Autumn

 I am standing under chromatic trees
Watching the romance between leaves and breeze

Autumn bride
dressed in colorful attire
dances with ebullience

The groom breeze
hovering around
gently caresses her.

Trees shower hued
blessings on her
endlessly

Her colourful dress
and gold ornaments
glitter in sun

As I walk,
I hear her rustling
love song

Her happiness
permeates surrounds;
I'm filled with exhilaration

Oh, my love, come, caress me 
Let me dance rapturously
like an autumn leaf

Rain me exhilarating
overwhelming sensations
that thrill and excite
