Upsets and Underdogs
Kiwi Cricket's Shangri La... "Can still hear the deafening din of the Indian crowd chagrin. Stunned shell shocked silence at mandarins' sins. Yet somehow still so loud Like thunder down under in the proud Land of the long white cloud. Daring to dream of derring do plunder. Upsets’ unctuous umami. Shocks’ sumptuous serendipity. Cast asunder as against the odds. Hallowed Gods' anguished..felled & fallowed. Kiwis vanquished...

Don't grieve. Anything you lose comes around in another form. Quote by Rumi How could you abandon me at that time A small innocent child, just a toddler Blond hair, sky-blue eyes with mountains to climb You couldn't know even if I would be a coddler I might have spoiled you...

IF YOU COULD GO BACK
If you could go back, even just once Would you fall for a face or feel for a heart? Would you still ignore that quiet voice inside Or would you trust it this time & let it guide? Would you laugh a little more, cry a little less Take the messy road, stop the guess? Would you stop chasing perfect, slow...

Premium Member If I could tell you what silent universe is born in my heart
If I could tell you what silent universe is born in my heart, The words would come when my tongue dances freely on the stage of desires, But in front of you, my control melts like snow under the touch of spring, Your presence steals my thoughts and turns them into butterflies of light. If you gave me a...

A Pathological Lier
She weaves her truths with thread so thin, The needle slips and lies begin. A charming grin, a steady gaze— Yet words distort in subtle haze. She speaks of feats she’s never done, A war she fought, a race she won. No shame, no pause, no hint of doubt, Just tales that twist themselves about. A shifting past, a fiction’s bloom, Each room she...

Premium Member could this be you
Golden hair like fields of corn laughter like the morning dawn Eyes blue like the deepest ocean movement refined like poetry in motion A loving nature natural and free nothing is hidden that's easy to see Taking a walk on a moonlit beach wishing on a star that is just out of reach A voice so soft never a shout could this...

feels so close I could walk up and with my finger touch the moon seems like nothing else exists and i’m alone swaddled in a tranquility that’s magnificent and surreal i can feel it pulsate to the beat of Mother Earth’s cadent heart there’s a distinct aura of tangible complicity and this is where i belong right here in the now of it AP: Honorable...

Thrust in the Center of the Storm; All I Could See Was You
turbulence unrelenting despite sand blown eyes squinting all I could see was you… tossed around slammed to the ground dazed and confused still all I could see was you… hope eternal in the midst of furious hell upon me that fell still all I could see was you… as I drank from a bitter cup of tears and fears my vision transfixed all I could...

Premium Member Thrust In The Centre Of The Storm All I Could See Was You
Serrated swathes of overwhelming savage gusts without compassion, directionless dilatory daydreamer that I am ostensibly vulnerable, to the serendipitous intrusion at a wispy sapphire cloud flaccid noon, the minimal load burdensome midpoint idle tranquil saunter, meteorological forecasts couched in plausible penetrating atmospheric vocabulary, nebulous references to malfunction and teetering patterns sooth mutual misgivings, imprudent...

Premium Member If I could fly
The river is deep, Too swift and wide, No bridge or boat, I can't get o'er. Somewhere waits love on the other side, If I could fly, across I'd soar. The mountain is steep, Too high and rough, Somewhere beyond is waiting love. No path around, beneath, or through, If I could fly, I'd sail above. The road's been long, My feet are sore, And weary to...
