Best That Is Poems

An infinite door of midnight blue;
glowing peephole that is the moon.
Dare I look before turned to dust?
Yes, dear friend, I surely must.

In the midst, a city of finest gold,
large as the earth; immense and bold.
Quoins of pearl, this must be known,
the lusture seemed a life,...

Velvet fell from the SKY ON a Boston day by the bay
Cotton caressed thy lips gentility so that you might sigh
While you tried to convince me you and I could beg to fly 
Suddenly uncertainty and fearfulness drew night but I never knew why

Other people...

What knowledge do you have of my home?
Have you taken a walk through the cemetery?
Walking on my tracks, footprints of eternity.
Have you read about the deserts?
Thus roar, thus blow filth,
Have you, met the survivors?
Felt have you, their struggles?
In The dusts that destroy,
That whistled as they...

FLAWS

I once stopped to pause

and think of my flaws

     But I already knew

     That I had very few

So I gave myself a round of applause!



          FLAWLESS

I got no...

Pale and fair, she will sit awhile 
She's a fragile lily, but not a child
who climbs across the wooden stile
to seek her private solitude

The willow pond, is her second home
She'll while away these lonely hours
with dragonflies, and buttercups,
mossy stones, and fragrant flowers

She picks bouquets of...

Some days I work so hard to get

my name on a winners' list, yet

it might end up for naught.

Zilch, that is what I got.

But was it still worth it? YOU BET!

After watching the news my stomach was in a knot
my brain on a hiatus leaving my creative juices to rot
imitating the thinker wondering why my muse had suddenly left
finding a note from her saying not to feel bereft,

Saying I could find her at the local...

It to took me many  years
to find someone I could trust ,
so many different hairstyles
colors black, blonde and rust,
but this time you surpassed yourself
that ash blondes just the job,
and to top it off
you cut the perfect bob....

Destiny quivers,
 like the lips of young lovers awaiting their first kiss.
As I quivered before our first … although just your hand.
It was filled with the passion of our unknowing souls.

Likewise, destiny,  
Awaiting patiently,
The unfolding of each moment 
As if it were the first...

Being the lone cause, I admit fault 
Accepting blame for our recent past
For I was the one churning atmosphere
Blowing into winds dusty hot air
Watching it become a tornado,

Leaving you to face the storm alone
Creating a vacuum that swallowed you.

But the sky's blue, dread has passed
Rain...

What kind of world will we leave for our children,
one that is shackled in hate?
Tying their hands in the wake of the future,
sealing the edge of their fate.

Killing of innocents minding their business,
filling the shadows with fear.
What is the plan to relieve all this worry,
now...

Love me so I may love you more
Adore us so I may hold your soul
Chorus enters with rhythm in chord  
Lord help us for it’s in our core

Rewarding is the oceans in your eyes
That shine deep beneath the tides
Diving deep for the pearl that...

That is Some Hydraulic Brakes

One day at a food shop,
I met a man selling cakes,
For money he wanted to swap,
But I really wanted some hydraulic brakes.

"Got any hydraulic brakes?" asked I.
"For that's how I'll spend my money."
"No hydraulic brakes here!" said the guy.
He seemed to...

Having a boyfriend or girlfriend is not love....But Having someone in your life on whom you have blind faith that even if you hurt them to the extreme they will still hold your hand and say:..."I was, I am, and I will always be yours"
That's...

Come walk with me in a world 
That only spirits know
Hand and hand together 
We will share all the joys 
That's only for us to know
 Kept apart for so very long
Now finally we have found 
Where we truly belong
 You are my light, my...
