My Favorite Place

...With eagerness I make my way to my favorite place
Where gratitude floats freely above every head
Where happiness is the coverlet that embraces each bed
Where laughter is contagious and strikes the...

Obscurity

...stars hide - muffled,
in a blizzard of flurries -
the screams of owls echo
through a once silent wood.

wet snow settles - frozen tears
on the skeletal arms
where oaks and maples shiver
and b...

On Our Beds

...Where we sleep there might be quilts
Or comforters or spreads
Or blankets made in varied styles
To warm us in our beds.

Some might prefer a cashmere throw
Or one hand-knit in wool,
While othe...

Lost Things

...Curtains flutter over the nursery sill, 
Waiting for their mother to find
The coverlet tossed aside, hanging still, 
Patiently expecting mother to right the spill,
The beds, empty, the windows, t...

oh, gentle keeper

...Oh, gentle keeper, lay me 'neath the earth's embrace,
Where willow branches whisper tales of grace,
Across the meadows, where daisies gently nod,
To my roots, to my home, to the arms of God.

I awoke listening to the cold whisperings
of windblown flakes.

Peeking through the closed drapes
I can see that the snowfall fell just enough
to cover the base of the conc...

The Future Does Not Wait

...THE FUTURE DOES NOT WAIT

The future does not wait
For you, me, or anyone
It has its private agenda
And no help to render
However bright the sun
For a few, it is just fate

The present remai...

into mist-coated shadows.
A stretch of gray-sheened water

skimming birds that must seek now
              ...

Autumn Leaves

...The gold-clad and dying
spiral onto a woodland coverlet.
Above, a rust tinged canopy
trembles on a warm breeze....

Fields of Crimson Poppies

...Fields of Crimson Poppies
David J Walker

Tonight I sleep 
            in fields 
Of crimson poppies 

Sunset has 
	    Come and gone
And I alone

Await dawn 
            With brothers

Kevo

...depression in the other pillow is deep
	your head
	is a hot air balloon
i wish you’d be there when my hamster dies
	my heart
	is locked up, whirring
photo paper scrunched by anguish
	your eye

Noisome Dragons Slain

...Sad the dark of night has fallen once again,
Rapturing the light of another splendid day
Wherein I have many noisome dragons slain.

Reintroducing me to a night of nagging pain
Benea...

...Winter's white coverlet has finally melted away
from over my garden's sleeping botanical beds. 
Babes from crocus bulbs peek above the ground
on this sun filled morn, warmly greeted by golden rays...

Paulette - 1

...

Paulette was a happy brunette
who now is forlorn and upset
for something, she cannot forget.
She backed up- ran over her pet
while driving her brand new Corvette
and killed her d...

Early Awakening

Across the coverlet over my bed
Some think the wispy image heavenly
I think of covering my sleepy head
Will fondly sleep another hour instead
