Unlike Thee Athenian
Those rarer men I once fondly 
knew...                             
Many dead now...
What remains of them they are so 
Few....

Premium Member Unlike a Queen
A seagull cuts across Her harbor,
riding a thermal rising offshore.
And an ocean, ripe with primal smells,
splashes salty brine upon Her core.

She stands in solitude, gazing out
toward Her birth land and sister twins.
In Paris and Luxembourg Gardens,
they, too, hold their torches to the winds.

"Liberty Enlightening The...

Not Unlike a Daffodil
Feet firmly planted
    Face turned to the sun
Glowing like the daffodils
    Growing wild along the road...

Privacy Is Like Piracy Yet Copy Cats Are Unlike Authenticity
Privacy tenaciously holds on to freedom and seclusion. 
It is soul-spirited and viciously fight like pirates to obtain. 
Beautiful front yards displayed to the world with hundreds,
Maybe thousands of  dollars spent on flowering plants, shrubs
And trees for many wholesome  views by a passersby.

But...

Unlike Today
Long long ago,
when the world was good,
David the prince,
he used to amuse himself
by using his guitor.

He used to sit alone,
under the tree,
enjoying good music
in his leisure time.

It was a sign of peace,
freedom and joy,
unlike today....

It's So Unlike You
It is so unlike you,
To wear that color blue.

Definitely so unlike you,
To shop for things that are new.

What has gotten into you,
To make you do the things you do?

Because it's so unlike you,
To get such a fancy hair-do.

I've never seen quite a smile,
Lingering for such...

The Moon,Unlike My Love
The moon is here at night,

In the sky above,

Which is surely a beautiful sight

But is totally unlike my love .

 

To the moon, my love people compare

Why? I don’t know.

What they have in common I’m not aware,

No similarities they do show.

 

The moon stays always...

A Night Unlike Others
There's no bizarre wind 
That disperses the frozen clouds,
And yet every naked tree
Makes horrendous sounds;
No stars rise from the dark sea,
lmoonlight is absent, it feels cold.

The reefs aren't of soft silver, 
They miss the moody moon
Over the deserted lagoon
And the harsh wind of winter;
Many unhappy...

Figure Unlike , Devilish Hike
Breathing depression since my birth
Providence one day whispered in ear
Thoughts itself turned face to mirth
Followed the witch leaving back fear

Reverted the opponent’s good time
Noises kept darkness lit to proceed
Future assures only power no pine 
Horny lady plotted map to succeed 

Mischievous figure looked so divine
The...

Unlike
7/23/22

Unlike anyone
Can't be worried about none
Got to get it done
As well as have fun
Doing it all underneath the moon and sun
Took losses but mostly won
Carrying a gun
Weight on my shoulders light as a feather or a ton
Regarding me, ladies often shun
So I just move on...

We Had Unlike Emotions
I showed that it wasn't true. 
A beautiful life full of sadness, 
it's weird but I like it.

I suppose I should learn from 
my mistakes and look frequently 
at my facebook biography.

But I can't get it out of my head.
 I don't understand how I...

A Twain of Unlike Twins
What ere were warm, inviting open doors, 
To this man maudlin and defeated kind, 
Unsure, frightened, his dog-tail tucked behind, 
He now finds shut, keys lost at far off shores. 
Asked of voyage, on adverse winds he whines, 
Given a choice from a pair of...

Unlike the Changeable Seasons...
One wish is all that
is required to be simply commiting oneself
to that dream so unreachable by hands,
that leave streaks of hope
on someone's face
so improvised by time;
we can make our fates and wait,
but  others are followed 
by impredictable luck...  
that they conjure a oath,
so...

Love Is Unlike...
Love is unlike the game of chess, 
as time moves on it matters less, 
in absence, fonder grows the heart 
of someone else less far apart. 

The pressure fades upon the will, 
and like a blue remembered hill 
idealised in childhood ways 
is bare remembered...

That World Unlike Another World
That world unlike another world,
where one can dream and see
how it thrills a curious mind
charmed by the resplendent sea:
it's your own drowning in glee! 

That's my world never deprived of light
which doesn't hesitate to dissipate shadows 
that conflict with the inner brilliance
of the noblest soul...
