Best Supplant Poems

Dawn slowly awakened to supplant the moon
Empty, the canopy where stars had been strewn
   In repose, Luna slept after wandering velvet skies
   and spider webs shimmered in the flight of sunrise
      Dew drops evaporated upon the...

Lovingly Dedicated to My Closest Friend, My Mother



My loving friend can caress cares away.
With simple gestures meant to pleasure sway,
She turns my smile upright and firms its stay.
Such kindness meets my same, I do oft pray.

As balm she soothes incurred hurt, ache and pain.
Together, life’s...

Here lies a broken man

Here lies a broken man...
fractured in his fragility, 
without a plan
Hope vanishes, 
escapes with delusions
Broken minds, 
broken hearts...
so much for
a brand new start

Visions of eternity,
crash and burn in her mind
Her delusional imposters
supplant our reality.
Lightning strikes to the brain
burn our happiness to...

A falling star met butter fingers, 
  kissed the pavement rain, 
scorched threadbare pocket cloth, 
  dream vapour in the wet. 
Dark smoke was all it brought 
  to dreary eyes of pain, 
and tears crept with sloth 
  ancient as...

Faces of death stare against my raptured skin.

Silently, they watch me in frigid judgment.

I used to run from them in unholy matrimony,
Peeling the sins from my teardrops
Wishing they would

Just go away.

The brown-skinned disease normalized her penetrating, 
Gaslit disgust against the smiles,
Against the faith
“YOU HAD IT...

winter approaches
snowflakes tumble from the sky
a sprinkle of white

As brisk breezes scatter leaves around,
Autumn colors confetti the ground.

Winter winds howl through barren branches
shaking off any remaining leaves.

Mother Nature is in transition;
stripping the scenery yet again.
The naked trees are in remission
till Spring showers; water them with...

God is the cardinal creator
He is the generous giver
He can rise a dead to life, being the grantor
He can create a thing that existed never

He gave what you have
He knows whatever you know
Your deeds drive Him to decide what to give
As you deserve, He does...

Creeping, crawling the time is calling,
night has come and the dark is falling.
Slinking, slithering the twilight moves,
as the squirming creatures hit their grooves.
Beneath the leaves the beetles advance,
while the worms break free to join the dance.
Their bodies swaying to and fro,
in cadence with the lightning...

Close your eyes and picture
a fun-filled, wacky world.
As stars bejewel night;
reality gets blurred.

Imagine a blue sky;
with billowing white clouds.
And allow that image;
to supplant the city crowds.

Think of when you last smiled;
now, hold on to that thought.
And relive the feelings;
that remembered smile brought.

Let your mind consider;
life's...

If I could, I would write a love poem that never exist
But exist in the lost mind of the betrayal of love.
If I could, I would stop the movement of the clock,
If I could go to heaven to see God, I would go
On sunday and...

"And Today's Special is Wine and Cheese" 

Some wine and cheese  
If you would please  
Depressed, I cannot express myself for I’m being oppressed and repressed  
Yet, I reside in the west, my lines are treated as an unwelcome guest
I’ve ornamented ideas...

TIME
passes
timepieces

sundials, water clocks
known relics of past time
timers supplant the hourglass

“I-phones put the wristwatch on hold.”

IF YOU PULL A LONG FACE : Part XXVI

IF you pull that long-besieged face
Back and forth to Brussels in Brexit bob-sleigh
Deal or No-Deal backstop Customs excise nor phase 
EU patience and make jingle-bells rein deer neigh

If you pull that plucky long face
You risk boxing the...
