Best Sightly Poems
My time has come to shamelessly sightly see
The seven seas sailed that have severed me
For my love has gone beyond the spheres
So I lay my night before the torrential tears
Pacified pillows condemned carelessly cry
Tainted windows that look thru amber sky
The Wishing Wells as dry as daunting dust
Broken hearts romantically remorse and rust
Winds that whisper her name come forth
So I may embrace her wandering warmth
For my love has gone beyond the spheres
Thus my soul is left yearning youthful years.

The Old Rusty Gate
Old rusty gate stands as guard without fear,
sightly slant at the back of my garden.
Blue bell creeper leans on as iits barden.
But it serves faithful since long thirty years.
Great watchman dutiful not yet broken.
Through day and night it acts as sentinel.
Perch for bird: Path for running squirrel.
It raises harsh cracking sound when opened.
Otherwise no complaint: Perfect watchman
I feel nostalgic and can't change the gate,
though visitors to garden get upset.
My oldest companion: I'm lts fan.
Old gate has captured thick reddish brown rust.
But it is still robust sturdy and strong
serving me sincere since thirty years long.
Struggling with time looses lustre, draws dust.
I am calling mason this afternoon
The gate will be repaired with new fresh look,
standing proud guarding garden at back nook.
To be painted and polished very soon.

My Love for Dogs
Dogs cute and fluffy!
Of all shapes and sizes,
some look so puffy.
Some dogs' hair is scruffy.
Comb them, please and make
them sightly!
Grandma and I wrote this poem
together.
A familial treasure, beyond any
measure!
(Written by Panagiota and her
grandson, Eddie)
Short Bio~*
Eddie is studying Poetry and is
thirteen.
He loves a 'Midsummer's Night's
Dream' and was when only ten
when he saw it!
Performed outdoors at....
Lake Tahoe, California.
Love, Panagiota and Eddie

The arms were bent to such degree
my elbows formed a pickle.
Where girls would laugh and carefully rub;
their actions all but fickle.
My knobby knees would catch their eye
alluring them with teeter.
My sex appeal was next to God.
Their motions now a beater.
My ankles seen as swollen out
would beckon for embrace.
When girls would reach to grab my frame.
Me blushing some disgrace.
My chin bone coming to a point
was shunning all but tempting.
The ladies wondering where it stops.
Not one of them exempting.
With knuckles bulging sightly bones
These beads of flesh made ripe.
A xylophone of sexy music
that women find their type.
My greatest feature boldly out.
A forehead bright to sight.
My headbone shining "Here I Am"
for which most women fight.
And finally not forgetting this-
My greatest gift to part.
I won't be sharing any of this,
for no bone is a heart.
Bloated bubbly beauty
Sightly sensuous sexy
Dizzy dazzle dangling
Picture puzzle prompting
Loiter lofty laughter
Moments misty matter
Timeless touching treasures
Motive meeting measures
Structure succinct story
Senses spreading silly
Effort erring endless
Sightings speaking senseless
Awkward actions appoint
Jumpy jealous joy joints
Nonsense nesting nothing
Blossoms bringing blessings
Teasing touchy troubles
Ripples rooming rubbles
Poetry puzzles primal
Rushing rivers rival
Fuzzy feelings floating
Buzzy bumpy breathing

I'm sitting here alone,
watching the sun rise,
life of leisure is my favorite song,
it's also showing the shine-
Waiting inside of a long day,
scrollin' the folly-
like a lick on the Zooxxzzzy!
Face is of-the-cream,
obscene mean but hey I tasted the scene on a ween,
couldn't agree with you so politely as I danced the x's out of the sightly!
Rightly,
so roughly,
caustic matches brought the classes,
heightened and fastened-
flattening all plastic as I'm being a magnet.
HASTILY HIDING WISELY WAITING
Flying fish are really gliding, gracefully so.
Frantically, from so many predatory piranhas.
Silkily, sliding into the most fearsome fray!
Hastily hiding, in very thick growing, sightly sedges.
Wisely waiting until the predators pass.
Satisfyingly safe, start to safely fly feeding.
Dusk darkening, welcoming much needed silent sleep.

{"How ones life has been going on, keep writing hard times a sentence on, you can be a light switch off/on."} - Loverboi
The suffering of today echoes a mile away, do I puzzle over faith in Lord God in anyway
Wrongdoings I shall regret, no outline on knowing the street ropes, the street aided me astray
Puffing pom-pom opera's, tiny opera's bashed on a ash tray, like letting my life go a way
Clearly wasn't reasoning such a thing, the galaxy milky way, stellar universes, milking a pathway, inked a verse
Pin I pad it, weed I had it, Tobacco Free Florida has persuasion to educate it
Debit card on a manage, hindrances I'll damage, upon granted an advantage
Good old days wounded, wound size enlarges, shapes, and withes
As each day announces a rooster, poor kid's are birthed including a tumor
Family speaking, staring pointing to a spine, A rumor, what's not brought to a men's acknowledgement is a rumor
Online typing applications browsing jobs, visionary on helping a consumer
Heart is circumcised, pumping echoes suffer, improved days I fantasize
Seize a card, imprinted letters and digits, profit a debit card name discover
"To collect bravery to attempt a extreme risk"
As we now know time is a cover
Willingness to endure is undiscovered, eventually discovered, the lustful eyes, to a mortal visionary sight, is sightly recovered
Suffering returning, overturn, didn't have control over the birthed sperm
More I live, More I learn
Rejoicing in the absence of money, usually lending away money, comes a limit where we all master to be joyful in the absence of money
" Perhaps Next Time"
Financial stability, Be spent on necessities abilities
Silver and gold no yearning, handle responsibilities
Showing helpfulness, your faintness, one couldn't pack and run, families the bloodstream vein run
Common people turn like a driver test turn, pray the poorest days, pave runaways
Devotee in God, Jesus, one's own effort, visualizations, have no doubt
Have faith experiencing a miracle, faithless guaranteed tomorrow
Life advances to a beautifully visionary paved pathway
- Loverboi
As he began to kiss her, she stood in awe with the most pearly poise, mirroring the petals of a primrose that danced with an evening zephyr she once loved. Her cheeks reddened like the rose as she tasted his lips and her smile glistened with a sparkling lustre. She closed her eyes once again and approached his mouth with the most sightly smile.
As they kissed, she began to recite his poem in her heart and continued it's melody but for all eternity:
"Caressing cue in sky-lit blue
In eternal dreams I long for you
Dancing dew's red poured petal
Glancing pew as pollens soared settle"

'Topical Tree Poetry: Defined:'
A new form of poetry invented by me, (Mick E Talbot), utilising, the 'shape' poetry format overall. Using the 'snowball' poetry form for the trunk, and any form that makes for a good canopy. The subject material must be "topical", ie, trending, current, historical, events.
The format: The canopy; any form of poetry, 1 stanza, no restraint on the number of lines. Lines not to exceed 12 syllables.
The 'trunk'; a form referred to as a snowball. It starts with the smallest word alluding to the topic, then using synonyms increase in size by 1* letter, ending in an antonym, refer to my example poem. The whole must be centered.
* Try to make the trunk branchless, the odd knobbly bump or hole not a problem. (The latter will happen at times).You can by hitting the space bar make the branch/es, hole/s appear on one side of the trunk, Or the other, just an afterthought ;-) Mick

So may have been that we who thought ~
Lands afar 'cross sea swift we'd ought ~
Shores held for us such wealths o'mind ~
O'which we'd never thought we'd find ~
Yet in doing that we'd desired ~
Thus so had much more inspired ~
For naught we knew o'such as does ~
Africa her secret was ~
She her realm of sightly glow ~
We so hers to only show ~
Yet had once been woman so ~
Of that land where we might go ~
For upon her grass once glided lass ~
O'such she was but shimmering glass~
Silken thread o'memory all ~
Her song so did our hearts enthrall~

With quite some ups and downs, twists and turns,
so illusionarily the mundane affairs fare,
racking everything up so far into thin air.
Traceless the same is my beloved,
like a draught slipping through the door shoved,
only a wisp of fragrance, ethereally evocative, in dream of old lingering deep.
Meretriciousness submerges, merging my melancholiness into high wind,
without the slightest sightly serenity in retrospect seeming to seep.
So lonesome the small alcove, my innermost outpouring has only nihilism to find.
End of dream brings me no beginning of waking,
no fortuity for fancy fondness in the making.
Royal, royal roads of love far and near, just lurk out of my lap;
Neat, neat niches for couples a dime a dozen, just lack of mine.
Freezing up instantly both dismal floccules citywide flying
and full bosom of sentimentality seething out of my sap,
only wanders and wades constant contemplation in wooing want.
Knit kindred know
Bestow blind blow
Glimpse gracious glow
Do deft dance dear
Steer sightly seer
Bloom bears buzz beer
Hot hype hurl here
Glance groovy gear
Free fuzzy fear
Cuppa coffee
Taste tranquil tea
Just joy juicy
Books bearing boast
Reaper's realms roast
Charm crystal coast
Wealthy words wind
Give gripe good grind
Free feelings find
Be brilliant bore
Carve clever core
Peel plunders pore
Store spiral spore
Blind blond blurbs bore
Grip glitching gore
Line lives long line
Feel foam flood fine
Dig deeper dine
Halt hunting haste
Wait weaves weird waste
Plot plunders paste
Crazy creep clowns
Fresh frozen frowns
Traverse toon town
Travel takes time
Real rivers rhyme
Chase cunning chimes

Back to Vapors
A mild winter sun sets blazing orange.
Mist rising from the mirroring pond,
sightly blurring sharp-outlined
black skeletons of summer trees.
The stillness of gray vapors holds silence in thrall!
At pond's edge I ask my friend Jim,
the astronomer,if he seeks to understand:
With a gentle, encompassing sweep of arm,
Jim gathers the silence of the pond to his heart,
his hand resting there a moment:
Directly, then, with wan-wise, glance,
Jim says: " Yes, but ...here.....now, you know!"
Slightly smiling, then, he turns his gaze
back to vapors!
