Best Reflected Poems

ripples of water torture accepted
the wrinkle of time descending
mannahly marantic romance
torticollis dribs and drabs of syringe
honey’d seeds remain; cakes fade away
dawn will erase; placidity will forget
but the depths release their seamonsters
reflected in the honeymoon, between palms
with firework stars overhead; eternal bliss

Lady fair...my fairmaiden
I picture you in your bedchamber
facing your vanity contemplating
the sad beauty,of raven locks
glinting emerald eyes,which cry
only within',as no tears are
to be seen on your self reflection

The knowing of your one true love
....uncertainty is his return
as you slowly brush out ebony curls
trying to smile...

I don’t have a blueprint,
just this smudged version
of what she would look like, 
an impression in a shop windowpane,
just as the light catches her in mid-thought.

To recreate, I must fillet an idea until 
it is just a pulse, a blood surge,
a milky image of smoke;
I...

There's something so utterly perfected
In the heart of you, that is projected
As I hold you, my warmth and feelings reflected
Within a mutual bond, we are both affected
Understanding your feelings, my spirit so injected
By the moments of bliss, we've built and erected
In listening to you, I'm...

Frosted skeletal
Mirrored reflected beauty

I, not an icon in myself
But an icon, reflected
In the image of God.

For I am a human being
Who was created by God
Made to be a little like Him.

Mystery of mysteries
Formed out of the dust
Awakened by His breath.

Before the Great Fall
In perfect Communion
Man and Woman with...

Its almost like I'm looking at myself in the mirror
Just in a different body that is
I mean we say the same things
Blurt the same numbers in games
Hold the same talents 
Being highly dramatic in speech and action 
Is one of our themes..let thee be pardoned
We...

It starts beautifully in tropical rain forest beyond majestic mists
Birds of paradise show off their colors to admire their exquisiteness team persists
But there among the deep mists
Casting huge shadow their target exists

The way up starts little bit bumpy but it matters not
The slope is still...

Seductress ! wilt thou steal away my serenity?
For thine skin, a zephyr upon mine touch!
Mine heart, held captive, in thy talons clutch.
Is it the intention of thee, to shackle my love?
As in the cage of the purest of Doves.
Mine sentience wavers,whilst caught within your gaze!
To...

As I read the words of a skinny girl
My tears fell to the page
Pain and hope interspersed
A woman who wanted change

I saw her reflection in my mirror
She was most certainly there
A spirit of substance
Calling from a distance
I could not help but be aware

I ran my...

shivering teeth the ceiling’s descent,
the drunken spongy borders of
dim imagined soggy pulsing
images in foggy spots,
exhalation and the sound of exhalation,
sense as the center of dampening paper
surrounded by our soft cocooning breath.
the shrieks are streaked across the walls by
muffled crux-splatter and shuffled scuttle after
skin-wrinkling stink, under-curl...

The binary star is about to come close to the sun
By the Stonehenge new day has began
Yung children with Stonehenge mystery have fun
As down the slope of rolling hill they run

The huge moonstone sapphire mirror in ice grotto hidden
Going there on wrong day is forbidden
The...

in negative temperature
on whitened branch
refracting winter's dark
inversing frosted blanch

pitch to mirrored pool
of symmetry below
in opposite of dual - 
serene in its afterglow

,,*** BIRD — ***       part one

Bird, 
Furiously flapping, eager to rise…

Here…Take your flight 
Through the warm air 
Of my heart,

I catch how 
Our sights are
Cast eye to eye —

Yours watch into mine;
And my own keep a busy 
Witness of...
