Best Signals Poems
Smoke SignalsIf words could envelop fire,
I’d whisper softly into a quiet
note and let the pyre in my
lonely coffer spill out it’s smokey dispatch.
Letting pathos glow inside carrion’s beat,
I would endeavor this note reach a messenger
with quick feet, so that you would read it before
I became nothing...

Mixed SignalsThe way his perfectly messy hair
falls upon the back of his head
with his breathtaking smile
that knocks me dead.
He could captivate a crowd
with just his dimples and laugh,
but you couldn't understand
from just a photograph.
He texts me once,
he calls me twice,
always checking up on me,
and always...

Nature's SignalsThe light changes colors 'fore my eyes
Gentle breezes waft fresh scents past my nose
Nature's signals all truth, never lies
Morning's dew refreshes barefoot toes
Brilliant sunrise, soars high my spirit
Cool moonlit night, so uplifting
The ocean's roar in a seashell, I hear it

Smoke SignalsHarsh cold breaths blowing gale force pounding drum bold
to the lightning striking blue diamond against ice freezing cold
Enrapturing a dark ebony satin night sky white silk cream velvet clouds
as the snow capped mountain lights up in a silver mist gleaming sparkles
One chain running a flood...

"Smoke Signals"
Her wet lips
long slender fingers
flipped the lit cigarette
3
seconds
it glowed
inhaled deep,
hard
and real slow
crushed under
Vermillion
manolo blahnik
killer,
Capital K
long bare legs in
deadly brutal
stilletos
The taste wasn’t sweet
Her last kiss
tasted of Manuka
and violet scented
dom Pérignon
tongues that duelled
real deep
hard hot and slow

Car Signals - BlinkersWhen changing from lane to lane;
I want to make it real plain,
Signals are not an accessory;
They are a necessity.
Please use them. Thanks...

to capture signals from galaxies aglow
Six decades, billions spent, not one signal yet

Mixed SignalsA terribly tired, trashed-out old truck,
lacking in luster, down on its luck,
longingly looked at a lithe little Lexus
there at the bar, fresh in from Texas.
Depressed, dejected, and driven to drink,
wipers not working, and too beat to blink,
he summoned his strength and shot her a smile;

AlcyoneusGalactic spectacle, we name you
For a Greek mythic giant.
You exist in mythic realms of space
Dwarfing our Milky Way,
The largest yet known of your kind.
We behold your bygone light,
Your radio signal artifacts now only just
Arriving from what you were
Three billion years ago.
So humble our...

Warning Signssharp sound of church bells
on a cold crystal clear night
warns heaven and hell
to try harder to do right
not give up on the good fight
strong gusts of north wind
ominous clouds now hover
no good they portend
bad time to feel hung over
makes good sense to find cover
