Of their misery! Deliciously!

Premium Member The Time In Between Seasons

time between seasons passes slow

Impatient we are as leaf buds grow
Carefree summer takes her time
A sudden chill - unwanted snow 
As  slowly the sun begins to climb

time between seasons passes slow

Crocuses bloom announcing Snowdrops
Daffodils come as a sudden  surprise
Azaleas flower as bright as lollipops
Forsythias glow like a golden sunrise

time between seasons passes slow
 
Idle leaves deepen in rustic tones
Sun fires the chameleon call of fall
Scent of smoke - autumn chill condones
All is golden to enthrall

time between seasons passes slow

No longer remote winter blasts its way
Its beauty - snow on coal dark wood 
Compensates for days of gray
As if somehow it could make good.

time between seasons passes slow



the time between the seasons

Premium Member Verity

The light always
Reveals the shadow
For what it really is.

A fight always
Ends in victory 
For the good that’s within.

The sun always
Gives life here on Earth
Its miraculous existence.

After death there are
Forms of rebirth.
Eternal cyclical creation.

The world always
In bouts of conflict and peace.
Evolution, reincarnation.

A soul always 
Lives on, while the body remains.
Spirit compensates and the body decays.

The truth always
Within evolving beings.

My Mind Turns Autumn, Again

My mind turns Autumn, 
again

And my thoughts undress from coherence 
I can sense that my scarlett feelings 
Are trying to escape?
I was reading stars from my tea-cup
today
but conversing with future tends to sadden me
Did I say:

My mind turns Autumn 
Again ?

I keep envisioning sunsets from past weeks 
back then the air liked to mutter a
peach-coloured scent and I
(watching the softly falling rain)
Muttered along

My mind turns Autumn
Again

I know I will walk those streets with a sense 
of this beauty being too much to comprehend 
I wrote a letter to a friend saying I missed 
a true connection but that such beauty 
Compensates ? (For that)

My mind turns Atumn, 
again

I'm afraid
That nothing can really mitigate this 
Sense

(ation)

I think I must paint
a bird who returns to his nest

(Like the birds in my head)

My mind becomes Autumn 
again

Heart Vs Head

My limitation is my heart,
Head compensates sometimes,
But always runs after.

Premium Member The Logic of Shopping

What is it about shopping that 
Appeals so to the women in my life?
And why can’t a man empathize,
Or plumb the logic found in “Book of Wife.”

Indeed the ideal clothes for men
Would be the ones found under Christmas tree!
Presumably they fit at least
And wife must like them, maybe even me?

But from a man’s perspective it
Is time that he has saved that really counts!
And nothing compensates its loss,
Not perfect fit, not two for one discounts!

And face it gals, what woman gains
By hiding flaws or boosting what’s not there?
It’s what he sees when it’s just you,
That makes him feel like he’s a zillionaire.

Joy of Aging

The world slows down.
That’s a good thing.
Priorities change, also good.
The rat race fades into memory.
It’s now time to appreciate things.
Let the next generation battle to climb the ladder,
keep their heads above water.
Time for walks with the dog, stoping to smell the flowers.
The body creaks where it didn’t before but the wisdom gain
more than compensates.
Reading and learning still much fun.
Smile at the young ones as they expound, knowing
time and experience mellow their sound.
Enjoy the children, appreciate the miracle, then smile when handing them back.
Reflective walks in the woods wondering what other paths you could have followed. Then realizing though, the one you chose lead you into the woods.
As time passes on and the young ones grow old, it’s important to remember, we had our time, our time in the sun.
Prepare to move on, our time is now done.

Pouches

A pouch is where a joey
Of a kangaroo resides
And pouches are the bulges 
'Neath your eyes that make-up hides.

Another type of pouch is one
We carry 'round the waist
And baby food's in pouches now.
(The jars have been replaced.)

It fascinates me when a word
Adds meanings through the years.
I guess that compensates for every
Word that disappears.

Premium Member Confusion In the Dark

Sight disappears, irrelevant as dust
determination makes one crazy or brave
snatching the light anyhow, is a must
sensing danger even if it is a wave
compensates for survival which is just
but not independent from an unknown grave
restlessness available for a kind lust
as understanding extends its hands to save
view the chronicles of a struggling boy
thinking hammer is needed to break small nut
nothing then is as temporal as joy
each promise comes with a coma and a but
a sorry mind turned into a bad toy
strings of slavery only clarity can cut

Devi Me Ii My Childhood

Crawling for many days 
my knees getting dark 
my hands losing its soft touch 
increasing anticipations on my mom's face 
still soiling my clean panties 
  
At last, my first step 
joy shooting across  mama's face 
uncontrollable tears tumbling down her cheeks 
me laughing,advertising my two milky teeth 
a moment of pure joy incomparable 
mama and i drowning in innermost love 

My second step,  
my legs wobbling mama stretching her arm 
yearning for a hug 
But no, my first heavy fall 
a tear trying to fall 
mama quickly compensates me 
not willing to destroy the moment 
compensating me with sweet breast milk

Premium Member Euphoria

Euphoria is grand
Not the drug induced brand
But the genuine high
When you’re ruling the sky
When your body pulsates
Nothing else compensates
Everything falls away
There’s no night and no day
Just that moment in time
When each touch is sublime
Your whole body’s ablaze
The surrounding’s a haze
Psychedelic it seems
You’re living the dreams
And you know this is real
The ecstasy you feel
You don’t want it to end
There’s no way to pretend
Then the world stops to spin
And you know it’s a sin
But you want your next fix
Of his love’s magic mix
Euphoria is grand
I mean LOVE’S special brand.

Air Breathed In, Thick With Sorrow

Air breathed in, thick with sorrow,
The night too dense with pain,
This sunrise barely compensates,
For battles fought in vain.
 
Care has taken up its place,
Behind her weary brow,
Drowning out the happy sound,
Of friendly laughter now.
 
The pain that racks her weary form,
Mere words could ill express,
The toll it takes upon her heart,
Her lips must now confess.
 
Perhaps the bruises left by hate,
Should not have been revealed,
To those who turn their heads away;
From the elect concealed.
 
She dares not hope this pain will pass,
The scars, and nightmares fade,
Will time succeed in killing off,
What greed and anger made? 

And when it's all been said and done
The final word it's tongue shall leave,
Will that word be filled with hate,
Or will it love conceive?

Dyslexia, Sonnet Ccxxii

I quell amongst the dischord words rely,
Upon the sole revivals am I prone
cross function is a dismay from behind
foundations of a style I'd call my own.
It clearly seeths in others, having heard
myself who, in a nutshell, doth reply
with verse to reimberse you where it dies
against the better judgements they imply.
I urge you, having reconciled too bold
doth duly gives as leaving you appears,
thus compensates with insight having brought
another kind of music to your ears.  
Dyslexia, contains with insights sung,
the worship of another mother tongue.

Music Hypnotic

soothing music, the supreme, 
                   softest relaxant,
          gracefully weaves a silken, 
                    aural tapestry;
      bathes and buoys my woe asea 
               in rhythmic wonders;
       tames and teases my rage with 
              melodious splendors;

                 hypnotizes me into 
                    temporary bliss
          that, no matter how fleeting,  
             somehow compensates
   for those I treasured that I may have 
                        forever lost,
      for which I'll give up all that I have 
                     to pay  the cost !
