Premium Member A Refreshing New Day
Winter is leaving a patchwork behind
Woven lumps of snow, for spring to un-wind
Melting into flowing streams, easy to follow
Right on down to the river bend's flow
A place for my soul's revival, under tall pines, soft soil
A nice place of rest from burdening toil
I can imagine...

Premium Member Refreshing Spring Showers
After a soft spring shower last night, the air was washed clean
And saturated mother earth brings to life nature's bounty
Wisteria, Jasmine, and Azeala's scent wafts perfuming the cleansed air

Last night's accompanying thunder and lightning
Brought nitrogen that restores  green to grass, plants, and trees
Now renewed...

Premium Member Refreshing Advice
Curl up with a book's deep reflections
   Turn off that electronic device
Stay away from artificial refreshments
   And follow refreshing advice

Take a dip in a clearwater lake
   a nap in the middle of the day
Go for a walk when you...

Premium Member Refreshing
Sometimes the dry desert wind
Strips slowly the sandless skin
Of the soul 

Gentle balm of the wide Spirit
Settling upon the surface 
Singing a song of suppleness 

Message of the mindful reflection 
From the internal mirror 
Of the heart

Home to the fruitful Spirit
Residence of the restoring, loving...

Refreshing Rain
Rain dives down onto land
Grass oceans and even sand
Gently falls upon my hand
My reflection in the raindrop
Who is this I see
Tiny little drops of rain
Created high up in the sky
In the clouds is where it lies
Cleanses planet earth 
Soon after its birth
Washes away evil and...

Refreshing Rain

As the rain came calling
it made a hissing sound
You could hear it coming
as it raced across the ground

Everything else went silent
with nothing on the fly
I stood with arms wide open
my faced turned toward the sky

It swept so sweetly over me
a tingling, cleansing feel
I began...

A New Refreshing Begining
i cant believe it!
i have come to life!
inspired once again i relive a past most splendid
taking back my pride i pick up my quill once more
and i jot down a few lines

because it is as if my lifeblood...

Premium Member Refreshing Rain
When you are unwell
And your body is weak
Worries hang over you
When it's solace that you seek

No matter how hard you look
For quietness and peace
Your jangled nerves
And aching limbs
Refuse to cease

Feeling very sorry for myself
As miserable as I can be
There is nobody, but nobody
Can feel as...

A Refreshing Taste
Falling ashes 
the cool, refreshing taste of black cherry
a hint of blood and the smell of burning flesh


the cancer chewing my cells....


my body aches
and my skin wrinkles....


yet...
it's still quite a refreshing taste....

Refreshing
They aim for simplicity
to purge memories
of political uncertainty
poison relationships
with no escape hatches
the characteristic relaxed
easy-going atmosphere
blurred pages unread
self-help books
chasing primary designs
brands to be mobbed
twenty-eight percent faster

*A found poem. I Googled 'refresh', took phrases from the titles and content of about six returned news articles, lined them...

Refreshing Appetite
How refresh is my heart
in the presence of you and
how reviving is this love
we both feel. How truly
revitalising it feels when
we touch, the beauty of 
your lips upon me and the 
rush my body endures so
pure, my refreshing appetite. 

The nature of seduction
from your body's...

Premium Member The Raindrop
Lingering its wicked spell
The summer heat wave
Overstays its welcome
Bidding a long overdue adieu
When finally heaven sent
That first raindrop
Splatters on my face
