Brush Stroke To Uniqueness
If my mind be painted in colors borrowed, would it be red? 
Rusted in brown, or maybe instead, an indigo streak?
Depending upon the source of inspiration, 
and the song on the radio at the time of connection...
I keep coming back to sea green, 
or the...

Premium Member Stroke of Liking
I was set in my ways
Downed café au-laits
In a den of privacy.

Though pain from a jilt
Still throbbed to the hilt
A regrettable history.

With no delusions
Of future effusions
I cherished my liberty.

And tried to avoid
With every fibroid
That lost road to misery.

Yet a sneaky charmer
Found cracks in my armor
Ensnaring...

At the Stroke of Midnigiht
AT THE STROKE OF MIDNIGHT

Night had fallen 
and the twilight sky grew dark
A soft wind whistled
across the pine trees bark
In the silence
we walked along, not holding hands
We felt our love 
was drifting with the time worn sands
~
Clouds mingled high among bright silver stars 
that sparkled...

“Stroke-a-back
stroke-a-back
someone’s going to touch you
in a moment from now,
I’ll draw the snake
but I won’t end it.”

Premium Member Painting Dragons In One Stroke
“Painting Dragons in One Stroke” 


Beware of angels 
with big guns
falling for you 
they lose their wings
it’s like clipping nails 

they grow back again
eventually

the sun shine comes out to play
the rain springs a well 
in the heart good for dipping
sharp fountain pens bloodied
swords brush a...

Life changes---- The Holy Spirit Brought Jesus Christ and His Words to My Remembrance, When There was None...
Sorrows increase , BUT Faith Increased More!

set his plan in motion immediately.
I had a stroke with all of it's curse....

Twenty-Nine In One Stroke!*
"He is brave and a warrior fine--
In a stroke, killed twenty-nine!"
Thus went word from town to town,
Only to come back around...
"A better man there be none,
Seekest thou a finer one?"

Crept-in a common sight of doubt:
Who's it they talk about...?

"'tis the Tailor from this land--
He hath...

Stock Market Stroke
Thronged investors at the allotment bazaar
Large cap bearish
Scripts at fall.
Awaited ingenious and expertise capitalists
Then brought into 
Scripts at down.  
Mid Cap bullish
Scripts at rise
Wavered SENSEX
And small cap ingress
Gives the once over like a cliffhanger rise.

Beginners rapacity and analysts variegations
Former’s paucity and latter’s accrued funds.

Pulled...

Stroke


symphony of hands
on keys
	trembling
strings and vibrations
	whispered notes
floating in the wind
		hands tap dancing
Anticipation at dusk
				a stroke
				of genius
on musical canvas...

A Stroke of Perfection
I sat in front of an empty canvass the other day,
Thinking of the perfect portrait in which I wanted to portray,
I began, and subconsciously I preceded to perfect my stroke,
Molding wonders until I hit a block, and my art began to choke,

Attempting to find myself...

Stroke-Out In a Rant
i do the dance of circumstance  
my brain react to a simple Mercenaries attack 
red, leaky, small vain, and poison pains 
what great planing
makes me see that 
there's no hope for me
and the suns of no shining  


 old man from the hood,...

Breathe


You lay in bed hands on your tummy
Head on your pillow blankets to waist
Deep relaxed breaths

Hair framing the face I love
Bursting scrumptious lips
Chest rises and falls with each breath
Tummy expands and falls with each breath
Hands slide to your sides as you drift asleep.

I sit in...
