Best Watcher Poems
The WatcherI watched a weeping willow
Dancing with a summer breeze
A timeless dance of lovers
They'd rehearsed for centuries
The zephyr would excite her
With his warm southwesterlies
She'd gently sway both to and fro
So playfully she'd tease
Her intermittent whispers
And a rustle of her leaves
Oft times would leave him breathless
Their...

The People WatcherSee the people watcher
Still as a mantis
Endless ambient sounds, unidentifiable
Does not prevent his gaze
He studies her eyes; her smile
And undresses her mind
The watcher finds himself
Transfigured
Her thoughts are not easily uncovered
A coffin, sealed; undefiled
The watcher will only find him,
Looking out as he looks in...

WatcherWatcher
from the barren trees of winter
to the golden warmth of autumn leaves
I am but a forlorn watcher
gazing through a window
afraid to venture out
yet allowing myself to imagine
nature’s beauty
be they lonely country roads
or cities bustling with people
an agoraphobic woman, I retreat from both
participation eludes me
as...

The Storm WatcherHe sat in his living room
And cast an apprehensive look
At the window
Pounded by the fury
Of the storm outside
The elements had gone mad
An unexpected storm
Had blown in
Out of nowhere
He didn't like storms
They reminded him of feeling unsafe
Even though he was being held by his mother
Oh, she...

The WatcherWatcher ...
he wandered the mists
the high fells of Scottish countryside
wrapped in robes of their own wan light
aglow like the full of the moon
and aback a white Arabian stallion.
He commanded the brume and twilight shivers
and could cleave sunlight with his sword
turning noon to midnight in a...

The WatcherI watched as I walked to the door
I watched you send Your son away to the shore
I watched as you cheated on us
Turned away threw me under the bus
I watched it all turn out for you
In spite of the evil you do
I watched...

WatcherThey could be strangers or maybe not
mind locked to their own moment
embraced by feelings and thoughts
their bodies intertwined - unaware
that a watcher is looming in the air
Breathing, watching taking it all in
secretly i see u, U dont see me
alive in the mind, senses go wild
sensual,...

The WatcherHere comes the Watcher heading toward the hemlock
Watching the world, becomes his wealth,
toward which he tails around you, to every place, today and tomorrow.
When The Watcher walks, time slows down
Bearing his name, watches die out.
For The Watcher walks forward, caring less about the weather,...

" What a piece of junk" he should'a rode the horse"
Brick turned to see the trail of smoke being left
behind by Bill's car as he drove away from the curb

The WatcherThe watcher sees the two sides clash,
A certain feel of conscious thought,
Yet sets things free in either dash;
No need to will or order plot.
When all is still, and two sides rest,
Watcher feels truth in simple terms,
Watch conscious fill attend the quest;
Stillness hurls proof to speed...

Ghostly Watcher - JqGhostly presence seen nightly
When lighthouse illumes brightly
Fishermen claim to see her
Confounded old tars concur
Her lover swallowed at sea
by fierce waves, old tars agree
Lighthouse beam, sailors concur
Was gone, not even a blur
