Best Silhouetting Poems

Mist rises from the valley floor

Sunshine peeks over the mountain top

silhouetting the Coopers Hawk
  
soaring in the southern breeze

I sit in my old oak rocking chair

drinking my dark black coffee taking it all in.

Mornings don't get any finer

I am one

one with nature.

The smell of...

Take a look my Love
do you see how the diamonds of our dreams
are burning so brightly and violently
silhouetting the lips of our wishes against the walls of ancient Latin gold
in the sacred villa of Love's Kingdom where there is no escape
where rescue is unwanted,
where we...

rest your head my love

in my caring and comforting arms

we will swing 

on this rustic faded yellow porch

under the pink and orange and red hues

of the setting sun silhouetting 

the streaking clouds over the horizon

let me gaze into those loving eyes

so soft and sweet reflecting...

Rippling waters moving
feeling hypnotically soothing
under our boat it rocks us
under its spell it locks us

misty fog slightly breezing
dampening the salty air we’re breathing
over our shoulders it shrouds us
silhouetting the masts around us

rippling waters moving 
feeling hypnotically soothing
its rhythmic ride tells us
to give in and let...

Silhouetted Stagnant Shadows


Stagnant shadows of night sequestered slaves in sight
Faces fading in fright as the fear feeds the lethargic light
Silhouettes of love in plight demons dancing in delight
As darkness devours the white, images surreal will smite

Within negative reflections of my loves dire defections
Outlines of lost...

The tuscan sun dips over the horizon
a river of red flows through the hills
gentle the sounds of love come alive
claiming another montalcino night

Echo the strums silhouetting my soul
soft samba beats calling me home
fragile red petals dance through the air
an illusion of light,   lifts...

Desirous dust devils dance for a glowing gold god,
withering winds wandering whither they wish.

Silenced as shadows stretch, silhouetting strange shapes,
elongated ellipses etching the expansive emptiness.

Quickly cooling, the sunset slathers the sky in carnelian colors.

Deep desert darkness descends, a moonless diaphanous dome.
Looming above us, the luminous...

Twisted popcorn lace decorates
The eastern pale blue sky
A canopy of delight hangs
Miles and miles up high

Upon the eastern horizon
An orange sun seeks to climb
Across the sun streaks of purple clouds
The sun arrives just in time

Apricot jam slathered across
Dripping stickily on pines
Silhouetting an outline there
Of oaks...

All heaven's hosts rise early Autumn nights
A million stars a-twinkling merrily
The moon reflecting sun's diurnal light
Silhouetting lovers, snuggling cozily

My fireplace crackles, warming slippered toes 
A whistle from the kettle on the stove 
The doorbell rings; in cold like this, who goes
Come in, dear friend, do...

The sun lifts an edge
and peeks a feeble light
beneath a blanket
of morning fog, its dull glow
hugging the horizon, 
silhouetting a stand of trees 
and the cross-hatched
pattern of a factory fence. 
Another day has begun
with its shuffle of trite
miscellanea.

I muster an interest, sending
out my first emissary...

 As an orange sun sets in the west
Silhouetting the trees
Flashes of orange and bright, bright white
Sights eyes can not believe

What were those flashes of orange
And white so clean and bright
Curiosity got my interest
And covered all the fright

As soon as next day's sun came up
On...

sheet lightning flashes
silhouetting silver clouds--
one star winks bravely

A Winters Tear

Latent waves of shimmering vibrations disturb the world,
tossing leaves and forcing grass and trees to weep a lament.
My winters breath is snatched away decimated and lost.
The hidden sun glides the horizon silhouetting the mountains,
grey bubbling clouds smother the raised land with their weight.
Man...

If you want to share your realities, 
With someone you like and so love, 
But have no reason, none for sharing,
Then the outcome will be undefined. 

You can’t divide something by zero, 
The divisor should not be nill, absurd,  
You can’t say your number...

Virgin breezes sweep through our distant white curtains
A cluster of candles lit our shadows silhouetting two 
Purposeful detainment- 
Soft conjoined lips breathe warmth throughout our bodies 
Lovers are we spilling fever into each others eyes
Tepid souls gently flow ribbons of pleasure 
Familiar aromas and tastes...
