Best Sang Poems

I walked in darkness along the shore
seeking only solitude and nothing more
Thunder drummed from somewhere far away
like foreboding timpani as clouds began to play
They competed with the roar of bally waves
crashing to the beach in rhythmic laves
Everything was out of reach for me
the moon, the...

I remember when the stars sang for me
Sweet sounds echoing through the night,
When I was young and, oh, so carefree.

It was not as though I possessed a pedigree,
Or had the special gifts of a magical spright
I remember when the stars sang for me. 

Summer nights...

In dawn's aura, mountains glistened with snow.
Rooster's crowing proclaimed the break of day.
December's frosty winds began to blow
as clouds shadowed a sullen shade of gray,
and serpentine ripples flowed on the bay.

Dimmed were rays of light from the sallow sun
when for a while its beams had...

I sang to the moon in your favorite style
with lemonade lyrics and daffodil song
Gathered the stars that I found in your smile,
leaving the universe dark before long

Moved every mountain in spite of their size,
short in the middle and tall on the ends
So that the sunset...

You sang to me of butterflies 
of silver stars and azure skies 
Deep inside those angel eyes 
I found the rhythm of my sighs 
You sang to me without disguise 
of silver stars and azure skies.

Not in tea leaves, in shoelaces tie existence--their harsh and meshing material
bound, tethered, undone with a gentle pull. 
 
The bunny ears
and clumsy fingers bouncing along the faux-marble
hallways: the future politicians and CEO's and poets
wiping caked mucus on the white-washed brick foundations--
babbling babbling babbling babbling.
A...

'Twas early on I remember
hearing the voice so tender
     sweetly interlaced
          with loving splendor
Later on I noticed
how the words fell from her lips
     her mouth, round and soft

When you sang, dreams croaked, then you ceased to be a volcano,
It was simpler to become a rock, not letting yourself be unraveled by the waves of myopia.
After seasons died in your arms, resigned to your cold might,
You questioned if perhaps all flowers tear their...

A dark lonely silence walked into a town, in hopes of a dream to arise
Yet not even a single smile looked its way, surely the dark silence was here to stay
Only the stars witnessed the passing shadow that lurked behind that lonely silence, it was...

A song came on the jukebox and we listened with intent
He sang "Only The Lonely" with a voice that was heaven sent
I was only in eighth grade, a few years from being a man
There was "Blue Angel" and "I'm Hurtin' " and I became a...

I cradled his head in my arms and sang him a lullaby,
     cradling the  m o m e n t,
cherishing every second more,
          then, when it was time . . ....

Each morning, for several years,
We’ve fed the squirrels and birds.
Oh, the fun we have watched
And the beautiful songs we've heard.
Families have started and grown.
Once two squirrels, now eight.
Cardinals, among many other birds,
Know feeding time….are never late.
Cardinals mate for life and prefer 
A permanent nest to...

Is their life on Mars
Carlotto's image, the Sphinx
Was their life on Mars

Creativity
Our intentions bring again
To Mars, loss or gain

But then we must ask
Simply, what can mankind bring
Mars no longer sings

There are many days I miss her,
A powerful and unique lady,
What truly deters,
Is why he married again.

I remember back when,
She always wanted to hear my voice.
I was too shy and nervous to begin,
Soon I had the courage but I lost my choice.

She never got to...

Angels sang the wondrous story
of Peace on Earth- good will to men.
The night that Jesus came into the world,
He came to save us all from sin.

Glory to God in the Highest, they sang,
as shepherds watched their flocks by night.
When they had finished, the shepherds left...
