Premium Member Swarm of Dragonflies
swarm of dragonflies
cascading on quiet lake---
    burst of hues explodes


perched on grass' easels
crepe wings swoop on irises, reeds---
    ballet of light twirls

The Swarm
There's an entity called "The Human Swarm"
It's presently 8 billion strong
Steam rolling anything in its way
Animals are most often made to pay
Inflated sense of entitlement a force driving 
mindless acts
Lives of animals not equal is taken as fact
A planet denuded of flora and fauna will...

Premium Member Swarm Sigh
You arrived on a splendid December day, as I recall.
I relived when we came home; I let out a large sigh.
I put my elbows on the overhang facing a mountain wall.
I sighed again vowed to be with you till you rise to the sky.

I sighed...

The Swarm
.

in swirling swarm,
like wayward thoughts,
dark pestilence 
from nowhere
suddenly descends
upon verdant farms,
darkening the summer
noonday sky;


hapless, helpless,
villages scramble,
stumble-- fanning
smoky embers of
hastily built bonfires,
stoking torches' 
failing flames,
ah, frantic futility!

The Swarm
It's like a scene out of The Children of the Corn,
Sweaters torn when I head the SWARM,
Inside the inner city desert storm,

My spectacular vernacular,
and poetic style will flip you like a spatula,
I'm snatchin' ya, solo like a bachelor
Your mind becomes a prisoner when i'm attackin'...

A Swarm of Turtle Clouds
A boggy wheat? Smell of the feet. And a festival fist of a differential calculus of praenomen poppies. Swaying in a misted setting. One should plant trees in an arc. And Aechyryptipical is very renounced for being a boating lake. Eyes open then eyes shut....

Premium Member The Swarm
The fresh air sang after the storm
all was washed clean by the rain
the insects all started to swarm

Made people duck as they reform
they had made a very long train
the fresh air sang after the storm

They were buzzing as they reformed
the new hive now them would...

Premium Member Bees Swarm Onto the Cake
Buzzing and swarming they fly in from the south.
They are plump with wings, stingers, I don’t see a mouth.
Bees buzzing to a flower, on top of a birthday cake.
I see them surround it, and my knees begin to shake.

Buzzing in my ear scares me in...

Swarm
your love is
mosquito swarm
the sweet nectar of
shame pouring down
the throat clogs
stops up senses
defenseless
i am a tree
down on my knees
my limbs snap&break
don't take your time
take mine...

Premium Member Swarm Wreaks
Wicked praise
shades of affections
shirk skies flow
wrecks at swarm
They are swaying in the storm.
In a range of shapes!

Premium Member Swarm Intelligence
In the dance of bees and flight of birds,
In flocks dancing high aloft in the sky,
lies the collective wisdom of a crowd of things,
that have, so-called swarm consciousness it seems.

But, there's no conductor or leader to guide the intricate ballet,
No single mind orchestrates the dance,
No...

Never showing in the day;
Vociferate all night....

Alates
Love wings to nymphs
of flying termites,
Rain accords

Kindles swarming
Provokes lust, make them
Fly like lovebirds

Alates females start a new colony
Alas, the males, shed wings
grasp heavenly light

Note:

An Alate is a flying Termite Swarmer...  

Termites with wings (also called swarmers or alates) are reproductives that leave...
