Best Translucently Poems

STARRY, STARRY NIGHT

I often look up towards the sky at night,
And wonder who or what is there,
I shout out loud, if you see or hear me, I love you,
I do this every night, the starry sky, an absolute delight!
I drive out of the city to...

Upon the doorstep of my paradise,
     You’ll find h e l l i s h pansies and t a i n t e d tulips,
     obscured within a heart-shaped topiary….
     As the sky...

The swell and surge of surf 
whispers tinnitus conched
on titanium sunken tankers 
that rock restlessly on far reef,

as children play unheeded
building imagined bastions,
nursery rhymes drown
turning back cnut tides.

Inevitably, 
sand shifts in an hourglass
that plumb the memory's depth
with rosy pictures in ruby flourescence

like monochrome holiday snaps

In a world where dreams are rakish and quixotic,
Where quiddity seems extravagantly chaotic,
A chivalrous soul dares to be different.
With a heart that beats fervently, so magnificent.

Romantic notions dance in their minds.
A visionary quintessence they find,
Chimerical dreams they hold dear,
Preposterous, dreadful tracks they fear.

Age is just...

Galacticly heavenly, imagine Jupiter, kryptonite lunar moons
Sliding between celestial blue and dark moody skies
Wherein lived a Dragon who incredibly, loved snow
Fell in love with a fairy, millenniums ago!

Began courting daring Evelyn fairy gorgeous,
She was, declared his love thunderously, universe knew,
Of his eternal love for this...

A Message from My Mother

In a dream I saw my mother welcoming guests into her home.
She had been expecting them and had been busy preparing and organising everything.
She rushed to greet with open arms and led the way through the hall and into her rooms.
She...

Rumination on the ruination of water

A pleasant clearing with lots of grains
but only a touch of water,
the trickle trailed through transparently
and so the migrating chickens stayed,
but as the flock expanded there emerged 
the problem of the water flow 
both quantity and quality
To waste means want,...

Pickled like gherkins in vinegar

Crystallised forever in sugar

Set and translucently Jellied ...

Hung like smoked, salted meat

Pigments crushed from earth
brushes from fine animal hair

Is it because they freeze
the sitter's image which

survived as the best image 
of the sitter for millineums?

Linseed oil Egg tempera hand
mixed by devoted...

Porcelain and Onyx
Free verse

His Agile fingers float across 
The faces of porcelain and onyx
Translucently releasing a glow

Firing the atmosphere with romance 
Stirring emotions into a harmonic melody
Eyes closed he sees each note arise

A melodic ambiance saturates the room
There is no ceiling in creating music
To be...

words lifted out of their mundane fonts 
translucently reborn by the holy obelisk
 held between the fingers.

academic  talisman... 

 baptiser of all memo's and textbooks. 
speaking in accents niether above
 nor below the blue college ruled lines. 

sanctified in a cloak of pure light.
Separating...

Star rain
that sparkled
from above,
glittering in light
Beneath forests green
the stars shone
brightly from beyond.

The heavens
glowed translucently,
upon their angel wings
with joy and peace.

Their love
grows endlessly,
remaining true forever
in harmonious bliss
sealed with a kiss,
lips tasting like honey
with love and devotion
soul to soul sweet....

Trees shed their leaves
red gold and yellow
Autumnal moods
translucently mellow 
Morns feel cold
a bite in the air
Hedgerows laden
with winters fare 
Squirrels muster 
their winter larder
hiding their cache 
so full of fervour
Whilst Hedgehogs
rummage through 
piles of logs
‘tis time for hibernation
in their new accommodation
When winter sends
her first snowflake...

Restless in the cradle night.
I spin and curl,
witless I puzzle over
a timeworn conundrum of self.

The brain buzzes on
being its usual endless blunt toothed saw. 
The body belches and rumbles
as it tirelessly works to produce 
the odd snort or snore.

All is a normal stasis on an...

A dark and faceless bedroom
consents to talk with me awhile.

The brain buzzes on
being its usual endless 
blunt toothed saw. 
The body belches and rumbles
as it tirelessly works to produce 
the odd snort or snore.

All is a normal stasis on an escalator
speeding to nowhere,
Just the random...
