friendship - we have chased that apparition, endlessly,

          but it's elusive spirit - always beyond our fingers' reach.

resentment, disappointment, heads thumped in anger,

Time and Tide, Wait For No Man
Touch and feel the rebirth of her heart
A new glow, magnets the stars above
Arousing the birth of an energy
That wittingly mingles with her long lost faith
An enticing yearn for life awakens her soul
She has cried many years, she has seen better days
There Is no lie...

Enchantress Commander
The creature of beauty;
a curvature silhouette
with a sweet scent and tenderness
that can wittingly
or
unknowingly
lure and sedate the beast.
This Enchantress,
once sanctioned as weaker,
merely the bearer of offspring
has evolved
from a sex goddess 
into a commander,
able to rule
an army of warriors
by way of power,
yet 
remain true 
to her instinctive...

Some place somewhere,in nowhere
Oh! come dearly wind,come to the place and everywhere
Were it not bad of you to bend and bypass us in your haste
Eternal it would be-had love been bethrothe'
To the valley,slummed with valour sparse
Over thy children deliver the sermon of love

Sizzling sobliquity enlarged-in...

Billy the Penguin Finds Love
In a universe far far away
There lived a penguin, whose thoughts did weigh
Heavily on his mind.
He thought of a vast array of things big and small
But there was one facet he thought of most of all..
Love.
Love being that for a penguin
See he had a lot...

Premium Member Wayfare Manor
In a peculiar puny town nestled in western Massachusetts,
There lives an enchanted mansion in the Wilbraham woods,
Hidden in the hills away from the eastern city's pollutants,
Where the creme de la creme masquerades in cowled hoods.

Around the mansion there lives but only one kind of tree:
The...

The Artist
They call him the artist.
People think he is crazy making up beautiful stories of life.
He takes pictures and draws reality and tells exactly what it is.
He speaks and we get truth from the love of his words.
He always has a way of timing just the...

She Is the Flower Amongst the Flowers
She is the Flower Amongst the Flowers

Like her fellow kind she is graceful as her petals reach for the morning sunlight

Soft and gentle in the cool morning breeze she sways

In that moment there is calmness that belies her truth

For she sheds the morning dew drops...

Poems By Vicki Acquah

Cognizant:

You have shown to me
my GREATNESS
- YOU
Having been discerning 
But were not always 
in agreement
You were there for me. 
AWARE OF ME.'

You have known me
in my weakest flesh
You have marveled 
at my strong spirit.

I will have to visit 
you when I transition....

Alone In the Early Morning Hours
What haunts you when you close your eyes
At night, about to fall asleep.
Knowing that there will be not a sheep
To count, but horrors from your past.

What crawls through your mind at night
Once you shut the lights all out.
Alone in the dark where the unknown blooms
Before...

Another One
all gazing there up,
't was time to drop.
the cloud shift'd beautifully.
excit'd by the show,
our boys did ignore
the lazy lark wittingly.

while larks larked festive,
Ben waxed real sportive,
n'saw no trees shaking nearby.
a vulture schemed wise,
afloat their reverse,
the Choco won a goodbye....

Premium Member Hesitant
A big conclusion by tomorrow I must hurry up and reach.
 It's about what I am to ‘do’ with my doggy “boy, Billy ‘Blue’.”
Half-wittingly I just keep vacillating between two notions.
 My mind is ‘churning’; my thoughts ‘turning’ like a tsunami.
 A bouncy cute but...

A Dear Visit
A whistle blown
Eyes drawn 
Vigilance escorted silence
Stillness plagued the distance

A woman sewing 
Sat on her rocking chair; swaying
She looked out the window 
And realized the sudden billow 
She smiled wittingly  
 And continued sewing quickly
But, a memory hit her head
Where she drifted into the...

Allowance To the Rival
I recall desiring dismal disaster
As tension tightened and negative neurons swarmed like hornets 
Over honey not made by them
But by the very enemy

I do not believe my rival became what it was
Till I allowed him in
Willingly, and wittingly

Feeling foreign claws clamp around me
Scratching my untouched...

Why Humans Are Like That
Why are the humans like that?
Filled with wile and treachery,
Using others as doormat,
Wittingly.
Can't they be simple?
Pristine,
As ripples,
As machine,
Who can't lie.

Why humans are such quintessence ,
Of sham drudgery?
Climbed on the fence,
Avidly.
Can't they just be good?
No hate, no tricks,
Just love throughout.
No cynicism,no narcissism,
everyone equal around.

I wonder ,
How...
