Best Twixt Poems


Twixt Blaze and Claw
Abuses hurled and Alcohol gurgled,
In the vortex of confusion
And blurred vision.
Intoxicated pleasure from surreal leisure.
Fooled senses and numbed conscience.
Wiped existence of love and kindness cuffed.

Lashed at the one he once loved.
Cringed and clung to her faint faith.
She and her cursed fate.
Exploding paroxysm of hate.

Her whipped...

'twixt Grass and Oak
‘twixt grassy tuft and bark of ancient oak,
as silky dew collects in crystal pools,
the chosen eye may witness faery folk,
though must remember ne’er to break the rules.

An honour and a charm bestowed upon
a child, who secrets promises to keep;
as dreamland calls and daylight hours are...

Premium Member Twixt Dream and Awake
Sol shines like a ball of flame
that's unbelievably bright.
And pierces sleepy eyelids
with His blazing beams of light.

Somewhere, twixt dream and awake,
reality jumps off track.
And Sol dabbles in abstract
on a field of darkest black.

Sleep slips out of fantasy,
witnessing the sun's rebirth.
And as time's held motionless;
Sol gilds...

"Nyx Twixt"




Blown

A long kiss,
he’s so Marshmallow
pretending to be
Peanut Brittle 

She’s not interested
in small minds revelling
in a life less lived
Little

So she’ll toast him 
by the fire that 
burns inside his 
vengeful heart, the town crier

Hell skips rope
to her tune

she sends him
the "Pass Go" card
Monopoly rides his
Funeral...

Twixt Christmas Eve and New Year
 
‘Twixt Christmas Eve and New Year
A time to reflect or regret 
We ate and drank too much methinks
when family and friends we met
We remember loved ones no longer here
Fast approaching the end of another year

As the clock begins to strike
On the very dot of...

Premium Member Twilight Twixt Twins
Memories fade slowly
Flickering with spurts of afterglow
The bad and ugly quick to go
The good crystallize, glint and twinkle
Before fading like embers to ash, in fire out.

Dawn is twilight played in reverse
Memories the same
Outcome backtracks to cause rewinds
Sometimes we choose to forget what happened
Cut the tape,...

Twixt Immense Powers Of Love And Dark Hates

Twixt' immense powers of Love and dark Hates
rests blackest void that in sad sorrow awaits

For love bringeth deepest joys of moonlit dreams
emerging Light, epic truth it always brings
Shining dawns that wrap souls into warm fires
rose-red colors, graced by...

qu'ry this:

aye, f'r thy legitimate contours art
yet ov'rwhelmingly stagg'ring to the gazeth

Twixt Cup and Lip
He didn’t dream a lot these days

Of having lustful ways

In lovesome’s sweet adventures

Could it be his dentures?

They didn’t fit so tight

And he wondered if they might

Affect romance’s bliss

When their fitting came amiss

In the passion of a kiss....

Twixt An Abyss and a Small Star
A cold December day, the label I give, the obvious
and trying times, a total understatement
I feel I'm sinking into quicksand
bowing to the creator of the pressure, the aggravation
like a faithful knight to his liege
Am I complaining, it may prove to be so
in spite of how...

Twixt Yes and No
HOW COMES RHYME, A VERSE IN TIME
WHAT CAUSE A POET SEES
JUST FOR HIM A TOKEN HYMN
THERE'S SOMEONE HE MUST PLEASE

IT COUNTS FOR NOUGHT BUT POEMS OUGHT
TRANSCEND AND BE FOR GOOD
PERHAPS INQUIRE FOR WHOM A CHOIR
SINGS OR IF IT SHOULD

THE POET STILL CONTROLS A WILL
THOUGH IT...

New Twixt On Mary Had a Little Lamb
Mary had 
A little lamb
It's fleece was
White as snow
So Mary decided
She would dye it
And its not white
Any more!
She dyed it pink
As it was her favorite
Color
But then it rained and now
Poor thing,
The fleece has turned to
A varigated shade
Of white, pink and yellow
The lamb is ashamed and
such...

Many a Slip Twixt Cup and Lip
M-any a slip twixt cup and lip
I-n life day and night; 
N-ot all are easy peasy, 
D-espite setting things
A-right.

M-any a slip twixt cup and lip, 
O-nce you start a venture; 
R-ugged weather might happen, 
A-s you dream of a bright future.
D-on't stop when things go...
