The Room of the Unrequited

...The Room of the Unrequited
By Roger White
    That evening, stillness permeated the lavender-scented room.  Dusk crept through the windows
smudged by oily fingers, The day’s twilight left a dull u...

Oh, Spring My Love

...

Oh, Spring my love I feel now your sweet hug,
you send soft breezes to stroke- to entice;
Spring your loving fingers . . . my serene drug,
I longed for you through winters coldest ice....

Who's Laughing Now

...She wore her skirt short,
her lingerie to be seen.
Such sights aplenty!

Gawking, gawping eyes
lusted at shear nudity.
They burned with hunger.

She proudly stood in
ruffled edges of cheap c...

Under the Bulbous Light

...fingering white pages, one by
one, painted with ebonic ink.
  borrowed,
    i’m blushing
      like a bride.
the rush
  of pages,
    windmill
      churning…
so careful, this klutz, sipping...

The Devil You Know

...Whatever happened to common sense
when did we all become so dense
ya can’t fall off an un-sat fence

dreaming of why and where and whence
trying to figure out farthings and pence
trapped in a w...

Charming Patterns

...Charm the waves, 
Entail algorithms of templates,
Subclass the seasonal stripes, 

Smash this tasteless flame stitch. 
A chevron turning into an imperial damask. 

Intarsia the charming argyle...

Spring Colors

...Spring inks 
cherry blossoms
in pinks.

Dabs lean
weeping willows
lime green.

And tints
blue waters like
glazed chintz.

Passing Time

...Little old ladies stooped over trays,
at the garden centre caff,
where they spend their days purchasing
tranklements, considered slightly naff.

Everythings game from gnomes to pomander
that re...

Blossoming Love

...Boy :
deep beneath the veil
behind creaking songs of mouth -
felt fragrance of love

Girl :
nah! torpor dreamer
fret over your own fancies -
stars won't shine the day...

Curiosity's Footprints

...Walking in curiosity's footprints,
I wander through life like a beachcomber.
Placing wit above life's trinkets and chintz,
I seek thinkers and poets like Homer.
Many peg me as a shiftless...

Dynamic Brushes

...Dawn’s xanthous blooming through the forest trees.
Bouquet from God’s hand suddenly immersed in light.
Flaming pine without a flicker, matchless crimson seize.
Skinny oaks like a garden ga...

Grandmother's Porch

...Grandmother's Porch

Oh, with my love remembered! 

Huge American flag flying with pride!

House a pristine white, with hunter 
green shutters.

Three matching hunter green rocking 
chairs ...

The Flowers of Evil

...A dusk, a glazed verandah, it's just rained,
a smell of lilac, earthworms and wet earth,
an awkward silence - the confusion chained
my tongue: “What if she’ll laugh at? Is it worth?”
A glass of w...

I Am Living the Dream

...With a knock upon my dressing room doors
I enter stage right to rapturous applause
And I sit before a white grand piano
So excited to perform
Gershwin’s Rhapsody in Blue
Such a treat for me to p...

"Free for the Taking,"
We looked out the window a time or two,
