conceptual cadency can calmly context
my monarchist mineralogist motivated memento
norway neurologist needlessly noteworthy
preemptive price packaged port
retread reversion relaxin radical rider
savour serviceable servitude
substantive silken spinnaker spookily stimulated symmetry
touchingly tense text through their thanksgiving
(Weekly Magnetic Poetry Challenge • July 27–August 2, 2026)
Midnight's silent frames a deafness
The inner pulse beats its cadency
Synchronizes to the clock stillness
Mute the site like in the cemetery
Midnight creates a dull borderline
Between the preceding footprints
And the walkway of a future life
Through a hazy sky of wondering
To challenge the incoming reality
Doubtful dare new natural actions
The stunning events in the journey
Outline to get near the self-intention
However, to set up the goal too high
Midnight's vision couldn't comply
scavenge what you find and
salvage what you can
swim towards the shores, though
the shores do seem to
swim
shimmy up a sea shore tree
shady up under the
palm
inspire yourself to be a hard - to - split
nut
who could just as easily be won over with a
song
good friend
lie awake under the island's
scintillating moon
as she sparks light over the shimmering shadows of
low waves
listen to the cadency of
accent, course, and sway
the days' roving shipwrecks
so
often
made
my divine gowned mystic banfilid
within the oak and intonation of
inward hills
let us crack open these fence - sitting coconuts
that have wobbled off by themselves
into the
fields
my good friend
The crimson sun of demure dawn
Climbs up the smoky sky seething slow
Burns air for the summer hasn’t gone.
Embracing the trees hot wind blows
Lean leaves filter sunburst streaks
Weave lattice of reverie on cool shadows.
The wind whistles in the blue hill
Music makes the sound of silence
Echoing in reclined valley winding still.
Vivid hues waft from the edge of twilight
Sprinkle spectra on my canvas
Paint alluring fresco of summer delight.
“The summer night is still and sweet
With flowers on every tree
Peace comes to them on quiet feet.”
Stardust dances with blissful cadency
In the sanctum of my mind
I store the treasure of summer rhapsody.

Hypocrisy in philanthropy,
is the theme for tonight.
A reoccurring cadency,
in a false malevolent light.
