Best Spright Poems

I remember when the stars sang for me
Sweet sounds echoing through the night,
When I was young and, oh, so carefree.

It was not as though I possessed a pedigree,
Or had the special gifts of a magical spright
I remember when the stars sang for me. 

Summer nights...

The ground rumbles, ominously, I'm on the steep side of a Mississippi River Bluff, mid-August, gathering bursting crimson red trophies of Staghorn Sumac for my favorite sumac-ade, a spright, invigorating tonic I enjoy this time of year. The smell in the air, forest-sage beginning to...

As Hermes once took to his feathers light,
When lulled Argus, baffled, swooned and slept,
So on a Delphic reed, my idle spright
So played, so charmed, so conquered, so bereft
The dragon-world of all its hundred eyes;
And seeing it asleep, so fled away,
Not to pure Ida with its...

Black spright as dark as night
Dark wizard eclipsing the light
Menacing vandal from perch alight
With guile give wing to flight
All of the airy spirits to spite
Your jealous suitors with envy requite
Spread ebony cape; your brigand kite
From eerie heights with steely eyes blight
With devilish caw a quaking...

Strangers meeting in the dark, quiet night
Lonely paramours who could no longer their burning desires fight
Striving their languishing, tenuous relationships to slight
Two, opportunistic souls seeking infidelities' penalty to blight
An impromptu rendezvous their amorous natures to delight
A trite, chemical connection that shares no keen insight
Two shadows...

A little love-bud of mine
Like a pyre flicker of light
Inflame in my heart so bright,
Trod my heart o' labyrinthine.

Toxicate my heart to love:
Loving in truth, crystal clear;
Eternally I shall rove----
Living in your halo sphere.

O'er me; is a thousand grid,
Ver'ly let my love-bud grow
E'er waxing strong...

Yea, I Admit Being A Little Uptight...

Yet,...this baby boomer surrenders
since many an elapsed yesternight
to inevitable (albeit gradual)
cosmic fusion with universal spright
notched calendrical anniversary, mine
nondescript birth doth invite
quiet acknowledgement between
January twelfth and fourteenth 2019

lengthening shadows of twilight
years ordain nothing more slight,
than mine chronological meter,
which will tabulate...

A silent stillness swaddles the night
A restless wind addled floor doth spite
From rim's spout vaporous cloak descends; prescience to slight
Above melancholy mist, hoot owl resounds with doleful delight

In the distance, a billowy plume rises; darkness to blight
A shrill whistle echoes from wall to wall distilling...

Mirth and pomp on high
Birds your soaring anthem bly
Angelic discourse; rapturous lullaby
Ring out wild bells to the wild sky

Sappy clouds bleed your snowy dye
Bleach the evil plume that dark spirits ply
With your balmy cloak enshroud every evil spy
Ring out wild bells to the wild sky

Fiery...

Soothing, lissome; render the facsimile of its
Heart; Such a spright with adore imbued.
‘Er pelt’s so sleek; as petite fry’s 
In its nurse’s, gentle and suckling: 
The only Cutie-pie on my heart.
  
Realism in its mettle glints joie de vivre,
As doeth molten chaste gold in...

It was in wildlife that my soul was born,
Enjoying serenity under the night stars.
My heart was never designed to lorn,
Along...

  MAGDALENE : JEWEL OF JESUS 


She was the Chosen
a beckoned one
to ignite His speeches 
smooth it with her own
illustrious strength
‘Courage against Odds’
marked her inner Jewel 
 soft it lay cradled  
rhapsodic rubicon ribs 
holding space 
bones, baptismal blood 
for His ordained trials...

There's something that I'd like to do
to take away your say.
And tell you that you're no damn good,
too lazy and too stray.

For starters I would say to think
of what you want to do.
And tell you that of what you think
your whole life's just a view.

Then...
