Premium MemberDeath Bids Me Welcome

Death bids me welcome
Into his tended garden
Where quiet plots of bramble clots
House names now long forgotten.

Engravings faded, darkened serifs 
Tower over brighter plaques 
Sooted over gentleman 
Look down on neater blacks.

Beneath Death’s open garden
There nods no congregation
A concert hall of empty audience
Unseen by stage commotion.

Their sandstone cradle cots
Swaddled in lichen sheets 
Are emptied of their

Premium MemberOur Beloved Jack Ellison Bids Farewell

I got the bad news today, we were loosing a friend.
One of our best Limerick writers Jack Ellison.
 Ailments are no surprise when growing older in age.
A new Chapter in Jacks life as he leaves, and turns the page.
 His Writings came from his heart, that were written by him.
Witty and silly Jack always left

The Birds

Reclined under the shade of a snag tree,
A babbler piqued my curiosity.
Staggered by the companionship, initially.
Then pleased.

I discerned a lamenting warble...
The massif offered commiserations to him,
With an echo.
A lorikeet adjoined him, ensuingly
And, she twittered a novel...
Which was beyond my comprehension.

Nefarious humans are certainly not shaped,
To perceive this heavenly beauty.

His agonised warble was altered;
Now sings a

Premium MemberAs the day bids farewell - Bite Size

Streams of color blend seamlessly in swirls of delight.
Heavily embossed across the faded sky, birds in flight.
Sunset’s glowing colour of crimson and gold,
As night’s velvety blanket begins to unfold.
Whispers of a breeze wafting gently, flickers a scent.
Evokes aromatic bursts, sensual yet earthy by intent.

As Saturated Earth Bids Me Adieu

As saturated earth bids me adieu
Angry moon spat out darken, molded cheese
There, prisoner in chains, thinking of you
My evil captors doing what they please.
Wicked lateral cuts gracing my arms
Damn cratered knots all over my head
That gypsy sold me a bag of dark charms
He was hoping that soon I would be

Silent Parthenon Moments In Glowing Vibes In Prayer Bids

Why An Imam with a mobile 
is the last thing you will want  
For today, 
Has many reasons, 
many more to come in days to come! 

As your palm is already junk  
in a once hopeful Palmetto Room 
Stanza is an Italian Word. Synonym. Antonym. Room. 
Unfolding world, Father in dreams. 

The loudest

Bids Thee A Night of Good

O' fairest maiden, thy vaulted domain art free,
Doth fleeth from thy bonds of horizons hold,
Cast thyself, and claim your superb crown to be,
Thy willfulness causeth favor amidst the bold,
Luminescence shewn thee that thou hast donned,
Transcend and traipse be thine eternal realm,
Behold the arrested eyes

Nature Bids Goodnight

Echos reflect off nature’s  beautiful sites
Warmth radiates as if in spectacular flight 
Mysterious moonbeams sparkle so bright
Kissing upon the horizons softly before night

Breezes caress each dew kissed leaf
The end of days much needed relief
Frozen moment in time being so brief  
Darkness teasing with sweet mischief

Mother Nature exhales a velvety sigh
As the sun bids

Premium MemberWhen the Sun Bids Goodbye

Sometimes when the sun
Hovering on the horizon in the eventide
On a cold, windy winter day
Is bidding goodbye at the close of day

I watch it almost wistfully
Wishing it would linger much longer 
Oh, the beautifully bright glow
And the glory of it, I truly treasure

What could be more magnificent?
A molecule of melancholy hangs high 
In the frigid

Bids For Slavery

dismissed ethics allegations over 18 years ago
how winter is my 2002 Olympic
how sad is my song 
my soul my songs 
taken in the black and used 
to be a slave of money makers 
the scandal of Utah never to be told
gets an Distinguished Service Award
how dose your slaving go 
very well very well indeed

Winter Bids Autumn Adieu

~Winter Bids Autumn Adieu~
Russet, orange and harvest gold
Autumn is the season when colors unfold.
The trees in celebration
dancing to the wind
preparing for the watery
wayward winds to rescind.
Lovers stroll hand in hand in the park
while people throw frisbees
to their dogs that bark.
Children play jumping
in the colorful leaves.
Sweaters, shirts and jackets
all with long sleeves.
Soon the ground will
be covered

Daylight Bids Farewell

The sun pauses briefly then slowly drifts from view;
The sky fills with  magenta, orange, red, and golden hues. 
Forest shadows begin to creep along the forest floor,
And melodious music is heard no more.
Along the meandering brook a grey mist lifts then slowly glides,
Beyond the tall pines, the moon attempts to hide. 
The  Owl
