Best Velvet Poems


Opal Stars, Velvet Dreams
~
My thirst now deep ~ I long to quench
to sip this periwinkle wine
In goblets cut of harvest moons
impassioned pleas now cast of time

Tender kisses ~ sonnets placed
on fevered lips near rainbow streams
In golden castles made of sand
I've knelt beside you in my dreams

As whispered winds...

~ a Velvet Rose ~
She writes with such fragrance....

Her words, like flowers

Flowing from her pen

Eyes like the ocean

Serenity, that never ends

The softness of her touch

Her heart melting from within

Such gentleness of colors

Like the still warming wind....

On journies she takes us

Her vision our eyes

The breath of her breathing

Brings life deep...

Premium Member Velvet Nights
I love the way you melt into my eyes,
And speak to me in fluency unheard,
That says to me your lust is on the rise,
My body and my mind by you quite stirred.

Impassioned arms, we're craving hot embrace,
And right before our yearning lips do kiss,
Ignited heat...

Premium Member THE ROSE OF VELVET TIME
On the dim lit streets of New York town
You danced for uncrowned kings
The whiskey harsh upon your lips
With eyes that could not see

And I'd await by the ocean's shore
With the horses tethered fast
For dawn would draw you homeward
From each exotic dance

You sought for what M'lady
While...

Premium Member Blue Velvet
Lost in a sea of blue velvet 
she dances, by the rhythm of aquamarine eyes 
Beneath a parapet of stars where no one can foretell,
the sparkle of a smile is waving its goodbyes; 
to loneliness 
to sorrow 
to solitude of morrow 
Soft landings on the...

There you are 
you’re sitting down 
feet planted firmly on the ground
staring at a blank screen 
wrists held just so, 
your anxiously poised
ready to go 
writing all that you have inside
your blinking 
liquorice windows

All you are hearing 
is white noise
fingers tap tap tapping away
your travelling...

Velvet Wings
Ignorant to passing time
Reality strikes its deafening chime
Unspoken words pass between
I and you, my darling queen

Lay your weary head to rest
With your arms across your chest
Now it's time to close your eyes
Whisper your final goodbyes

Let me go, we'll both be free
Cross the wasteland, past the...

Premium Member When Velvet Turns To Stone
When velvet turns to stone
When heart forgets the home
When lovebirds all have flown
When only hate is shown

When kindness turns to night
When blindness covers sight
When fear chases delight
When dreams have taken flight

When trust is torn in two
When old gives way to new
When dry replaces dew
When words...

Premium Member One Velvet Evening
Tranquil, pearly moon arises, at the tangerine end of the memorable day,
Just like the ones we knew back when, until golden time was swept away.

Dressed up people laugh somewhere, very eager for a night on the town,
When the resplendent moon is wearing, twinkling diamonds in...

Come Float With Me On Velvet Sound
Come float with me on velvet sound


Come float with me on velvet sound
as music wafts the evening air
With melodies of hope now found
and timeless days we both shall share

The setting sun of beacons bright,
so full of life and amber glow
Does dance the heavens curtained light,
brought...

Velvet Night

On a warm, velvet summer night,
When moonlight drips in a soft SIGH,
The scents of LILACS bathe starlight
And CAJOLE crickets to reply.

MISTY castles enchant SLUMBER
On a warm, velvet summer night
Spent hearts dream in shades of umber
In mystical moonstruck half-light.

Midnight mistrals, rufous bobwhites,
Chirp...

Premium Member Green Velvet
Impoverished, destitute no money to spare
This woman with green eyes and cascading hair 
On a mission to find something to wear
Impress she must as though she hadn't a care
Green velvet drapes hanging in her foyer
Torn down and fashioned just for her
This woman in green shown...

Premium Member The Velvet Beach
Let me walk along the velvet beach,
collecting shells upon crushed stretch.
Sun rearing-up a nine year old — teach 
her to be happy, care-free, an oceanic sketch.

Eyes wide open, examine the gifts of the sea.
Brunette hair cascading over the shoulders.
Her bare feet stride through shifting sands...
