Blaze Away Poems | Examples


Star

Star

The tiniest of elements; our fusion is a must
To blaze across the empty space and illuminate the dust
Radiation beams
Winds of change unseen 
Mutations we can trust 

A giant and a dwarf, across the vast expanse 
We swirl around each other, a spatial growing dance
A billion lights
Infinity sights 
In just a brief romance 

To blaze away in infamy 
Forever and a day
A beacon in the darkness; I always lead the way.

Premium Member Eyes Down, I Clash Averted

Eyes down, I do the test.
Eyes down, it's you I detest.
Avert your vicious stare, 
    your blazing eyes, frying me.
I won't look up, until you look away.
I can see what your eyes are doing
    peripherally,
    in the corner of my eyes,
    while I blaze away at your belly button.
I feign deep thought
    by looking down to the left.
I feign deep feelings
    by looking down to the right.
Once your eye-stare stalking
    fails to get attention.
I will lift my sights
    and up my eyes, to eye to eye level.
Then it's my turn 
    to searchlight stare
    at your eyes, blazing not blinking.
Daring you to look back, to up your eyes to mine.
The Ante is Upped
You Bastard!

Premium Member Lightning

The lightning cleft the sky apart
turning momentarily night to day.
Enormous forks cleaving the heavens
whilst sheets scatter the clouds.

Uprooting trees as it strikes and
setting some on fire to blaze away.
While animals and birds cower 
tucked away in their little havens.

Crashing thunder rings out as
clouds clash one against another.
Furiously they heavens fight this night,
one could believe the old gods are warring.

Bellowing down their collective furies
with rain hitting hard as hail stones.
Right overhead the noise most deafening
as nature shows again her awesome power.

Slowly so slowly the lightning fades
and the rains lessen in their intensity.
The clouds start to part as stars appear
and the moon regally sails through clear skies. 

Peace now returns to earth and heavens,
yet the scars are plainly left behind.
A reminder not to take nature lightly
or else suffer her awesome fury.
