Skyline Art to Home

Skylines
Puncturing clear blue blue skies,
Evidence of mankind’s rise,
Or fall.

Skylines
Winky, Twinkly, in dark black nights
Changing, changing ‘til dawn from twilight,
Low or tall.

Skylines
Wrapped in mystic fog of morn;
Vehicles forced to press on horns;
In a mood.

Skylines
Glued in cubist silhouette,
God’s glory colors in the west,
Weary workers...

First blush fountain azimuth of hued rays
wet patio shrub basket in the haze
zealous heartland tower cry as life force
celebrate and  savour August rare days

Magenta skylines cluster silken clouds
blue ocean colour eyes that worship shrouds
a fancy surreal canvass so divine
it mesmerises jubilant bright crowds

Summer fun...

The city skyline’s broken teeth
Chewed on the fog’s edge
Yellowed and dirty tendrils seethe
Above the sun’s defeated wedge

The lights wink on like stars but dim
One for one they blink and wink
Musical lights but just a whim
Whimsical eyes peer through the stink

Exhaust exhausted
Encrusted in grime
Another sunset display...

hue of afternoon

The New York City skyline
Once had visitors impressed,
But now it makes New Yorkers
Feel disgusted and depressed.

For jutting out obnoxiously,
A giant matchstick looms;
It’s a residential building
Filled with billionaire-type rooms.

It is ugly, it is boring
And it’s thrust into our faces
While destroying what was once
The special skyline it...

I sit half crouched in a rickety chair
    My gaze riveted on the porthole
    A fuzzy mirror to the outer landscape
    Begins slowly to unscroll

A lanky ray peeps within
And falls on my droopy eye
I strain to...

standing boldly
against golden beauty

YELLOW IS THE SUN IN THE SKYLINE after Midnight- -

Once upon a midnight flat;
It was matte, imagined that!
'It's that even,' I muttered;
Yellow as sun and butter;
…..a rainbow of mystic skies;
Beautiful site between the eyes;
Passions liken a blonde celandine;
Bright byzantine, lupine, and benign!
Solar capsicum minds the...

I hovered softly to see the exquisite skyline
As it set in place, the most overtaking colors
The colorful clouds were painted pinkish orange
As it set in mind a painted picture
And we were the ones disturbing this picture
This moving paint
Of the comfort of mind
Of the settle of...

Natures skyline wows
Emerald greenery blooms
Forest firs flourish...

call
from far
to be lost
not to be traced 
back


wind

wings of mind
skyline calling..

A labyrinth constructed in perfection
Hues claim color blue for their reflection
Old and new take turns in violet isolation
A Spectrum designed in oblivion
Nowhere to find safety, fall or learn to fly the horizon
abysses hold my untold as a hidden tradition 
these secrets are folded delicate
like warm...

From the heart of their country to a new world they did sail
Over an expanse of ocean through storms and gales 
They settled in New Amsterdam, this Dutch colonial place
To create a new world in their progressional space

Many years later after conflicts took their toll
New...

Siren stunningly sprung a sanguine sway
sailboat sheaths spread, and storms swell 
splendid summer shorelines spike
summertime spousal serenade swept
scrumptious, sturdy sibyllic sweeps
silky shorelines settle scrawls
seawater subtly scrubs...
