Premium Member CAPTURED CAPSURINGS-
Forgotten memories; Abated distant dreams; How do you know? You’re a gathering soul; Quiet mouths spoken whispers; Enraged emotions atop the raptures; Where do you go for peace? When war is all that’s released Remembering feelings; Caught up in ourselves; Mind keeps racing and reeling; We're all caught up out of breath; Remember Awaken Knowledge Spirits core Forgotten memories; Abated distant dreams; How do you know? You’re a gathering soul; 07/14/25 Written words by James...

Siren Song
I thought I heard an island siren croon a sophisticated tune with words in song about the moon in June as a big bright and bold balloon enchanting music captured me shipwrecked my heart is all at sea or am I wrong imagining things it's only the waves and the wind that sings ...

Premium Member One Captured Moment
In retrospect, I should have paused this poetic video. Were I a musician, I would put this moment to music. Had I done so, there would have been permeating and heart felt words flowing from the deepest portals of my heart. It was a live medical scene involving my doctor, an RN, and one other medical personnel. I saw the...

Premium Member Captured Moon In Cauldron Of Love
I hear the birds sing in the whispering breeze for you, as the sunburst sky flushes your garnet-groomed face. How endearingly attractive you’re then to me, I know in my mesmerized mind, you’ve no clue. After the onyx night dissolves, in your garden I find me sparkle as an opaline pearl of embedded ecstasy, a dew drop drenched...

On a warm summer evening as stillness settles on the turquoise lake a solitary golden tree stands expanding it's arms outward the trees on the shoreline remain still coated and covered in green not wanting to change with the season the golden leaves visual on the smooth surface of the lake reflecting like a half baked sun a round glowing golden figure nature's...

Premium Member He Captured Childhood
He captured childhood, never let it go, Sidestepped the potholes of “growing up” Never forgot that ice cream is better when shared Popsicles meant to be broken in two Throwing stones in the pond an avocation Skipping them….an art He still slurps his soup as taste has consequences Milk moustaches, especially chocolate, an art form He still wipes his hands on his pants Will...

Moon on the blue Nile. Dual happenstance. No pretense or guile. Captured by romance. Upon a timeless Isle. Within a lover's trance. ...

Premium Member A Treasured Single Private Moment Captured But Not Forgotten
Leisurely sat on a busy beach A hive of noise and activity A collage of shifting Shape and colour form Just casually surveying the view I felt the hot intense expanding rays Of the sun Scorch and burn my sensitive skin As I watched the wrinkled sea of blue Lap and fold My hair was tussled and strewn Somewhere in the near distance The pulsating...

Premium Member To the Town that Captured My Heart
I came to reside in a charming town, Where golden shores and azure horizons abound. A tropical heaven of palms that sway, Gracing the beaches in a fascinating way. A surfer’s dream, a meditator’s bliss Sights to enchant and many moments to relish. Active and keen with walkers and joggers And some showing off their...

Captured
Captured Sometimes I close my eyes so I can't see Sometimes I feel so close So trapped I can't breathe Just want to be by myself Just set me free Just let me be Release me You've got me in this cocoon that I can't pry open So I scratch and I punch and I pull at...

Premium Member She That With a Sweet-Laid Kiss Captured My Heart
She That With A Sweet-Laid Kiss Captured My Heart She a true angel yet forever incomplete Yes, forever and a thousand years in a day But her heaven rests completely between her sheets Her love was abundant, sweet in every way But in love's resplendent and blaze-cast flaming throes She felt the intense burns of love's amazing heat In her hotter flames...

Premium Member Captured By the Eventual
Captured by the eventual, I waited Hoping like I’d never hoped, praying Never letting go of the possibility, waiting Silent light, solitude in graceful rays Praying, waiting, sensing the promises Woven through the beautiful, the amazing With threads of peace and joy, love Like colorful strings, strong as summer’s Sun and wise like the flow of a moment When life reveals its sincerity, its...

Time Captured
A well timed hamlet ponders the evening sky A graveyard still with silence The hillside sinks slowly from view Glaring clouds are driven A procession of geese evades capture The bluish cave where the dying leaves blow Great things are expected As Autumn purges mindful things Moistfull succuring Time recalls the sad waters lapping by lost villages...
