Premium Member dragonfly cannot leave yet
Iridescent wings of rainbow hues Flitter amongst the lily pads Will she light or is this a drive by? Dragonfly sighs upon finding the delicate pinks Their yellow middles calling to her shy side She decides to stay for a few minutes The frogs go silent; no more croaking There is a delicate fragrance in the air Is it cherry blossoms or the...

Premium Member CELEBRATING THINGS I CANNOT SEE
Wherever I go it’s easy to celebrate all the beauty in front of me… the sunsets, the trees, the flowers, the ocean… all those things my eyes can see.

Desiring What I Cannot Have
She’s so ideal She smiles at everyone she sees. At the sight of someone so ethereal, The people feel at ease. Her perfect hair falling down, The way ocean waves couldn’t compare. When one looks into her blue eyes they drown, One couldn’t help but stare. When you hear her voice, The angels stop and listen. You have no choice, To impress her would be your...

Premium Member Horse Color Cannot Be Ignored
Horse Color Cannot Be Ignored Intentions, cryptic, in pockets. Fiery darts lampooned in sockets. The bow is a clue; not a sword. Horse color cannot be ignored. Wielding war’s arms, removing peace, Men turn on each other, decrease. Burning core, where anger is stored - Horse color cannot be ignored. Black as soot; rider holds grub scales In hand; deprivation prevails. Looking at the day prices...

Wind cannot shatter your tree of glass
Wind cannot shatter your tree of glass Your performance of involvement pushes you afar A moon can shine with euphoric light It shines and tries to avoid its dark side But you stand, shifting, alive and in place Your hands steady Shakes buried Somewhere not today. Your breath a sign of angels Your soul not out of place A beauty in your angles And not...

Premium Member Words We Cannot Escape
“Words We Cannot Escape” Words we can no longer speak we tap dance over keys bruised blackly numb Winter palette in hand Autumn now gone across white-washed notes fixated on stark enclosed walls the scent of old Lavender swimming in its vanilla escapes us each word appears miraculously in form a zealous charcoal footprint smouldering across a blank page,...

They Can have Weapons, Protect themselves but We cannot?
They Can have Weapons, Protect themselves, but We cannot..? With all you know and all you suppose, It stands to reason then, does it not, Our innate ability, although predisposed.. To suffering and our tragic lot To protect one's family against all foes.. They have armies guns and worse, Humanity now perceives it has lost, To gain insight...
