Premium Member Spring Is Coming Soon
Soon one and all will welcome the unique
Pleasantness of spring. Sun’s
Rays and showers will fulfill their
Intended purpose, engendering
New life in the earth as we say 
Good-bye to winter’s last cold blast.
		
Indoor time will decrease as
Sounds of joy fill the air outside.

Closets will reflect the season--
Out...

My Fondest Memory
My fondest memory was so surreal
  It has changed my life downright
and I really feel beatific to reveal 
  the secret behind my delight
It happened on a bright sunny day
  I saw a tiny yellow egg amidst 
 the leaves,which was its...

Premium Member Christmas In July
I already bought my faux Christmas tree.
It will go on and turned as soon as we unbox it, get it set up!
I did this last year when lockdowns began.

I will not allow evil deceptors to ruin my life in anyway they can.
Music....not faux news is...

Premium Member Just Climb
Certainty is great,
and knowledge is good,

but it's not everything.
Nor does everything come with

instructions. Quite often there
are missing pieces, blank spaces,

unsure faces. We don't always know
where we are going; how we will get there;

nor the absolute reasons we are going, but
we go anyway. We are not...

Backward Drawkcab
My mind is infrequent
Not eloquent... I guess.
Your mind is a bottle
Amused at the thrill of what?
Smoke clouds unused..
Problems askewed.
Deep wrenching can't stand me's 
And nothing to lose.
It's fire?
It's yours?
I try to unbox?
I'm amused 
In a sense of collapse. 
You're standing with a new shot. It's...

Ghosts of Summer
When I close my lids
and unbox these dusty memories,
I discover that it's hard for me
to recapture
the ghosts that summer turned over
in its warm hands of variance.
They were people that existed 
only for a season
that would leave me dreaming
of true face-to-face talk,
like when I first learned...

Premium Member Bottle of Tears
I saw a can of tears with a 'use by',
Not 'better by' date.  The date had come
And gone, and the can was never opened.
In the next aisle, I saw a can of liberated

Emotions, and just inches away, a larger can
Of repressed emotions. Clearly, the...

Open the Sails
I learnt to let my arms float in the air
And let the rush flow with the wind
Cause I was so focused on being great 
Putting pressure on myself that I was close to breaking 

So when I stretch my hands out
I let go of all...

Premium Member Christmas Tree
I unbox my faux Christmas tree, a tradition every year,
Adorned with baubles, lights, and festive cheer,
In the living room, presents beneath its boughs,
A holiday aura, a delightful vow.

My daughter opts for a real Spruce so divine,
Decked in finery, outshining mine,
Alpine scent wafts, a winter's sweet...

Closed Off
You've opened a flurry of emotions
As you kept on trying to unbox me
For you couldn't stop till you opened my can of worms
Cause you wanted to know what eats me from inside 

I told you I'm long dead and that you shouldn't bother
But you just...
