Premium Member only one kept her curls
My mother’s curls were teeny tiny, ringlets of gray Tightly wound, as if they had been set around toothpicks My sister and I had golden curls until we were two. They gave us a haircut, and that was the end of them. Our brother had curls, but they embarrassed our father. He did not think he looked like a real...

Curly Serenade
The awning of Ovis, a shade from the sun, Cast patterns of light, where her story begun. Not rain-streaked glass, but a warm, open space, Where her curly brown hair framed a captivating face. She moved through the tables, a sun-dappled dream, Her presence a current, a vibrant sunbeam. "A light, if you have one?" her soft voice inquired, Her eyes, like...

Cracks, Cuts and Curls
Capsulate, wrenching wore around the nook Never asked to swing her lips and hardness hook A scary flood of fumes, fire her tears And the invoice innocence of her beats Enormously resonant as the dark dirt Self-like a famished, fainted convert Echoes the intensity of despair, she oftenly hides Yet, quietness and lowliness wove at every side She the rose’ pearl, mourns with...

Premium Member Girl with the Curls
I can still remember, when they said you may not be born, my heart became so heavy, wondering how I would mourn. I can still remember, the first day I held you close, you were so calm and beautiful, with big brown eyes and a little nose. I can still remember, daddy was your first word, such a dulcet melodious voice, more beautiful than a...

Of Swirls and Curls
Her sun-bleached curls flow languid with the breeze, with soothing timbres in her choral voice. Her tangy scent denotes a shameless tease, alluring like a nymph with carefree choice. Her turquoise eyes depict a tender mood, and salty kiss that lingers on your tongue. Her soft embrace immersing but subdued, for years besotted with the tunes she sung Yet, our rapport at...

Wet Curls
Wet curls Begging a wish To touch them. But for the mist, White wool over eyes. We saw The haze went up the gorge, Stroking the pines of Mawkdok, And desperate To hold your hand, I Kept the commandment. What shall I do in heaven now Without your moist locks? Pears blossomed In pure white detachment, But you took their pictures, And I preferred to trap Your wayward ways in my fingers. What...

Toxins and Curls For Contest Fragile
The universe is an enormous place Where we can measure distance in light years But fragility lives within that space And is the cause of many human fears Oceans we sail and the air that we taste Are more fragile than the strands of spun glass Streams and rivers run foul with toxic waste As they threaten to destroy us en masse But...
