Best Ribbons Poems

Blue – 
for your arm wrapped around
my clavicle. I thought
I would loose my breath.

Red – 
for the cusp of our hip bones
struggling to pull the drunken color
from our orange cheeks.
and our sweat, our sweat, our sweat
evaporating 
in the drenched summer air.
Our pants futile afterthoughts
Left crumpled...

Yellow ribbons furl
on oaks that line our driveway
as we await your return.
Their luster's now pale,
reflecting the challenged hope
of a son you’ve never met....

Bare unto the world her beauty stood; both of us knowing!?

As smiling within a twinkling of grace, filling her perfect eyes
 
Cream de cream; in this yuletides lovely moment afore its place ~

Whereupon the stockings of love were so gently lain and, she

Adorned in creations...

Carved this stone a breath in life 
Then opened wide these pure made eyes
Where tempered hues paved roads their gray
...Yesterday, washed away of blue....

To just wake precious one day,
And see our heavens filled with ribbons in God's sky.
Flying in patterns, every which way.
Satiny and soft~ swishing, as the winds may.
A beautiful, ribbony relief for all of humankind to see. 
To uplift not only me, but more significantly...thee!

Wear ribbons on your clothes and in your hair.

Pink ribbons for a whole world cancer-free!

On cars; on houses, put them everywhere!

Wear ribbons on your clothes and in your hair.

Support the cause and make yourself aware.

The uninformed we can’t afford to be.

Wear ribbons on your clothes...

Round and round they go
Ribbons weaving a pattern 
Of unyielding beauty
Held by the dancers
Who smile happily
As they trip along
Around the maypole of life

Red for the blood that
Gives us life
Blue for the thoughts
That bring us joy
Yellow for the sunshine
Entering  the soul
White brings the purity of...

High across the sky
Colors from heaven I see fly.

Pink, blue, yellow and green
Ribbons from heaven, are what they seem

I wish I could see them everyday
Ribbons from heaven, I wish you would stay.

Those beautiful ribbons down to me reach
Leaving me breathless and without speech.

The visions of...

On roads to nowhere/everywhere
white crosses dot the countryside seeking
a final resting place abandoned now to 
wait for plastic flowers to be placed as if 
somehow this will bring closure to loved ones 
who mourn their passing from interstate to ether state
from sadness to glory from...

With precise movement
and purposeful lift with time
We applaud the dance...

Ribbons and bows tied to the flames
rose and scorched joy with scars mundane.
Two sick hearts arched in pain’s red stain. 
No love to come would be this same.

Now, new fire crackles your sweet name.
I strain for your vision in vain.
Sadly, I feel our love lost...

Rippling ribbons flutter in the night,
cavorting across ebony skies.
And undulating waves of color,
slip-slide across the blackness of space.

The planet's natural cadence makes
the Aurora Borealis dance.
And a symphony of Northern Lights
starts waltzing in abject solitude.

A melody of visual notes;
plays like music in sync with my soul.
And...

Heart & Soul 

What a wonderful thing to behold!
Have you ever seen one quite so cute?
Never ever wanna let you go..
dressed in a brand new birthday suit.

How nicely you plucked heart strings..
that day you flew into life,  
on two sun-kissed shining wings.

All your charms,
sent...
