2] He taketh me to read in libraries serene: He leadeth me to instruction and knowledge.

Premium MemberMarvel Or Dc Superhero Or Supervillian Poetry Contest Entry

The Goblin takes his place TQ at the start of the race
Five more goody two shoes line up through sixth place
Pumpkin bombs locked at the ready
To turn these five fools into confetti
The tone in five, four, three, two, one,
Gang green trees it at the start gun
A red rocket behind him named Spidey puts four to

Premium MemberPoetry Anthology Contest Entry

Optimism entwined in this missive
Letting hope flow through nature’s ceiling
Splayed up on the page by a maestro’s hands
May entice readers’ emotions to reeling.

Spirituality oozing into the words
Gentling guiding the band’s helpful intent
In a reverent manner with love
This poem is truly heaven sent

The giver wondered what it would be like ?

Premium MemberSpring Contest Entry

All winter they slept,
the fingers of their roots entwined,
friend clutching friend.
All winter they slumbered, 
sustained by the last of summers' bright syrup.
No wonder, then, with the melting of the snow
their dreams overflow and burst the banks;
No wonder, then, the tightly wound colors of their dreams
slip through cracks of bark,
and slowly begin to open
like yawning springs

Premium MemberHold Me In Your Arms --- Contest Entry

The light will still fade, if I take you in my arms,
but your eyes will be closed, safe in our secret light. 

The wind will still quarrel with the trees,
but your ear will be near my chest, as

the wish to be here with you, always, repeats,
as if it will do any good, but 

right here,

Premium MemberHot Summer Day ----- Contest Entry

Hydrants open; the waters gush and flood
the burning road. The children cheer and run
in suits, to feel the flowing cold. While mom
and pop stand side by side, the neighbors prom-
enade, and Mary Jack and Adam splash,
as Becky cools her feet. The Conners dash
with flapping towels, into the flooded lane.
DeMarco tries his best to swim, but

Sir Ian McKellen's a blast. 
He once graced a day of my past:
warm crumpets in bed,
my cheeks turning red,
til Patrick appeared with a gasp!

Harlow's Pit

The pit succeeded. Harlow's toy
infected all with doubt. 
Alone, the young macaques despaired
in bins with no way out.

The pit was steel, with sloping walls
some food, a grate, and spout.
No mother's love while growing up
just fear with no way out.

The pit was made to last. For years
the world began to shout,
but Harlow grinned and left

Premium MemberCovered Bridge, Contest Entry

Covered bridge contest hosted by craig cornish

Father's grave was across the covered bridge.
The river was cold, white, rushing.
It roared on the broken stones, as
the mare stepped onto the planks
pulling her dark carriage on its black wheels.
Her iron shoes fell, dancing.

Shade covered the wreath of lillies.
Unable to hold on to the thick petals, their strong fragrance/
slipped

Catie Lindsey poetry contest: Let it Be

Cross Stitch

Years do not heal words
stitched into the mind with a needle,
a sharp needle making its point
over and over,
'til every heartstring is used up.

What now?
What can we say to each other?

Just, let it be.
