Best Splendid Poems
Whispers of two lovers
longing, tender hearts weaving moments'
touches of sweet melting honey,
exquisite scents of passion
Stealing each other’s heart
Entwined in a heavenly cloud
as two gold bands melt,
making it one soul in nature.
Tender, dreamy, gentle kisses
that float to the moon and back by way
of the Milky Way
are impossibly intoxicating.
Sparkling glittering fireworks in the clear dark velvet sky,
two souls dance suspended in the night.
Gently caressing each other,
the world is theirs.
Breath taken from tender kisses,
a fascinating sensation arises
to enchantment,
true, splendid love.
As they look into each other’s eyes,
they yearn for passions;
they give their heart to love
with heaven's fascination.
Man loves friends
Babies have toys as friends
Children have peer groups as friends
Young men like making friends
Friends can become spouses
Entrepreneurs have ambitions and dreams
as friends
Stars are friends of the moon
The splendid glow is the friend of sunset
The shore is the friend of the sea
We are friends of our grandchildren
Pets are man's friends
Only genuineness and sincerity of heart
Showing a true love
Only sincerity and cordiality
Is a sign of friendship
soft waves and sunshine
an altar in twilight veil
- gargling salt water

A thing, a thing so beautiful that even the evil eyes consider it as a obsession.
Something so fragile that it can break a person into many pieces, a thing that one experience once in their lifetime, if done right it can make a cracked one healed and if it goes wrong it ruin every breathe of that person.
The thing so rare and sparse that not every being can discern. It comes to one least expected, it makes one a crazy prisoner locked in a jail full of devotion. One’s heart drums in their body to confess that in all strange maybe they dynamite love. I guess once again the have been enshrined
Starfish pearl of the cobalt deep
Scale the ocean's precipice
Five arms feel each white grain of sand
All tips view light and dark rays
In costal waters day and night
Splendid starfish don't depart

Here I sit alone in my ‘prison cell’
Cut off from the ones I love – it is a living hell
I feel so alone, I crave human contact, anyone would be great
Just someone to talk to - it doesn’t have to be a mate
Splendid isolation between these four walls
Scared to venture out my room in case an intruder calls
I lock my door every time I leave
In case someone comes to take what little I have to thieve
There is no one here to share my fears
No one to hold my hand or wipe away my tears
The ones I love are far from me
No one to listen to my plea
I need to be brave to soldier on
In a few days we will be gone
Back to the home from where we came
Until then I play the waiting game
This is my first poem since childhood, written when my husband was undergoing cancer surgery in November 2013. I felt so isolated and also very vulnerable in the hospital accommodation which was a flat that had 4 lockable bedrooms and a shared kitchen but was shared by both men and women
I had my laptop and my phone .. but what I really needed was someone to be there at my side. My son had just started university and had enough stress being away from home especially with his father being ill. My father prevented me from telling my mum of my husband's cancer so I had no support at all from my immediate family.

My name is Mariam
Does it matter?
From the beginning I was doomed
A harami in a Muslim world
A world where a girl has no rights
Where a harami has even fewer
I am a slave in a man's world
My mother, Nana, tried to tell me
I didn't listen.
Too caught up in the world of Jalil
My father, but me not his daughter
Through my experiences I have learned
Like Nana said, Persevere
There is little happiness
In a world where nothing is fair.
Splendid
Splendid ,
as silver moon
is the woman of mine.
Life illuminates
tender and lively,
engaging ray
swift and keen
flowing and silken.
light and vivid colors,
invisible aura
which takes me
as music
unpredictable.
Splendida,
Splendida,
come argento di luna
è la mia donna.
La vita illumina
Tenera e vivace,
raggio avvolgente
rapido e penetrante
fluido e suadente.
Luce e colore vividi,
aura invisibile
che mi prende
come musica
imprevedibile.
During the tender moments of the night, I laid in bed with the covers over my head and listened to the wind lash the corners of my house.
The soothing breeze seeped beneath my window sill.
I stretched my wrinkled ebony body beneath the warm covers and sighed with wishful thoughts.
I wished that I could be whipped away by the uncharitable wind, and tossed against this old house of mines until my flesh and bones fall to the ground and return to dust.
My spirit would delight in the freedom to dance and whirl in its embrace. To be whipped into the sky across the elevated plains, to ride the swell waves of the ocean, to be tickled by the long reach of the tall pines, to soar over snow capped mountains, and fields of wheat, corn, and sunflowers.
The early morning light peeped through my window and reminded me of the fears and misery that consumed me on previous days.
I reached for a glass of water to force down a dozen pills that I held tight in my palm during the night.
I embedded my body with the blanket against the threatening light of the day, and once again I romanced the splendid wind.
The Splendid Tulip
No other flower has been the cause of savor
There are 16th century tulips beds of every flavor
Oriental pigments suited for an exotic bouquet
Garden visitors buy tulips with pots made of clay
The sparkling tulip arranged in a basket
A layout of tulips found by a love one’s casket
A wish for variety of tulips never gets loss
Beautiful composition at the right cost
Red, yellow, white tulips of splendor
Tulips in the window not associated with gender
European vases for tulips with a long stalk
Splendid tulip scenery in the forest to take a long walk
YOU CAUSE ME TO RIP THROUGH THE PILLARS OF OPPRESSION AND DECEIT
SO MANY WILL CEASE THEIR DISTASTEFUL CORRUPTNESS.
I WOULD EMBRACE YOUR JOYS AND PAIN SO TENDERLY. I WOULD SEACH THE FLOORS OF OCEANS AND SEAS, IN HOPE OF FINDING "THE HOPE DIAMOND!" THEN WOULD I PRESENT IT TO YOU IN ITS NATURAL AND RAW FORM.
I WOULD EVEN TRAVEL THROUGH THE RUINS AND THE AFRICAN DESSERT IN SEACH OF EARTH'S LAST WATER WELL, ONLY TO QUENCH YOUR THIRST MY BELOVETH. I WOULD EVEN CONQUER THE KING OF BEAST, YES THE LION, AND I WOULD BIND THE TIGER, AND I WOULD EVEN DEFEAT THE GRISSLE BEAR IN ORDER THAT YOU REMAIN SAFE.
ITS BEEN LIKEN UNTO AN ETERNITY, SINCE I'VE EXPERIENCE THESE SWEET EMTIONS. SHOULD THE MOUNTAINS CRUMBLE AND SEAS DRY UP, I'D BECOME A UNDEFATED FORCE
THAT WE'D OVERCOME SUCH A CALAMITY. OH YES! WHAT A SPLENDID JOY DO I KNOW...
The splendid structure
Comprehend imperfectly
Feel humility.
The early morning breeze from the atmosphere;
Is like a freeze that need to be measured even though it is not wind
The birds of the air sweet melodies sound aloud
So early In the morn
Making me feel splendid when I yawn
I peep through the window seeing the sky so bright
Then I have the thought that my day will be light
starting from the Genesis of the day to night
I love the smell of the flowers
And the sweet honey from bees
Along side with the dancing boughs of all trees
I love the waving ocean upon the sand
And also in love with the seashells when I placed them on my hand;
Either on water or land
All things on Earth including animal and humans are of great
Having hundred percent rate
Either length, width, height or weight
Violet blue filled the color of the blind night
Beneath the sprinkle of flashy star dust, I felt the breeze
Gazing upon the skies with no limitation
Underneath my mind cavity, I amazed
Moonlit hid beyond its shadow
As if reluctantly shared the gleam next to my car's window
Though, the beauty of this bliss conquer my anxiety
Bring me back to the shelter of my sanity
My mouth shut but my imagination crawling
The silhouette of my days as though reflected in constellations
And the cotton clouds pretend to be the angel's wings
Night flapping its miracle in magic
Seek for some splendor through the night whisper
Still I stunned staring at the skies in fully manner
Statued at the parking lot, people might think that I'm crazy
One voice call out my name and bring me back to my reality
Splendid women
Out of a dingy rearing
Obscure and silenced
The pain of desertion
A mean decision
Splendid women
Your life has progressed
A giant procurement
For your current enjoyment
A price is proclaimed
Splendid women
It’s been such a jaunt
More rush than of a joint
The gold of the giant
A vital ramble
Splendid women
Gaze at the portrait they gave you
Obnoxious and incensed
An enormous deception
Portrays a bogus depiction
Splendid women
I sense your sting
You gave your all
Till you’re left with nil
I recite your tale
For the realm to grasp
