Best Sundew Poems


Premium Member It Was One of Those Mornings
Outside my window, all is dull and white
As morning spreads on cracks across the bay, 
Her prickly fissures stark, like threads contrite, 
Against the pewter of a frigid day
Where sullen the view from iced winds’ replay.

I see a varnished gleam in my heart’s eye 
While...

Song At the End of the Road
Drinking from the portrait 
of an alienated moon
in a self-taught remedy?

I was looking very
hurt in the muse,which
had failed the earth.

I wanted to say, my
sun was my sun,
broken, eclipse by eclipse.

Who was traitor to oneself ?
Sifting the leaves of a
raptor,to find the death

under the shade of
sundew,...

In Wonderland dwelled Tweedledum and Tweedledee, twin brothers;
And genial next door neighbors, like the rainbow's changing colors.

Employed by the Mad Hatter, at Vale asylum, in Looking Glass Land,
The twins managed that institution well, like thunder, in command.

Their homes and land were edged by a flowery...

Sneaking Desires
The pursuit of a rainbow 
    in the tiger sanctuary.
       Mathematics fails.

I'Ll Drift Back To You Like the Waves In the Sea
let's ferment the stars with sulfur rain
mix in the spirit of the alluring galaxy
an intoxicating blend of moon glaze and sundew

drunk on stars waltzing on the rings of Saturn
adorning our pale stories with sapphire-encrusted necklaces
placing asteroids as bookmarks between our happiest moments
to highlight the fights...

Willie Winkie lived in a land of magic, in the region called Butterfly Haven;
For Willie was a diminutive elf, like the violet blossoms, of purple fixation.

Willie and his beloved wife, Elvira, lived highly organized, pleasant lives;
For magic impels ways and customs to differ, like buds,...

Premium Member Pollinating Passion
To all the dead flowers your colors remain;
The future is budding with an echoed hue,
there is a glimpse in the cleansing rain;

Trapped inside you’re fed to a sundew 
energy transformed but still it grows;
Generations will come to know you; 

A relentless spirit does not decompose,
held...
