Dappled Poems - Poems about Dappled

Dappled
The path is thin, the land high, tree lines and rocky outcrops lean into each other. My dog bounces away, she's found some dappled deer; spooked they run across my trace. It’s another Smoky Mountain moment, a dance-stepping poem framed by shafts of sunlight. A dog, and a bunch of white tails, their softly pixelated images, filtering across my eyed, I sense an angel looking over...

- the mirror shows time of age ... the truth gives a bitter taste - Quote by the poet They said she ate children and the kids in the street called her the witch She can't bear to look at herself in the mirror stopped participating in social events The body was aged and dappled suspicious moles examined it was cancer A photograph hangs...

I dream of dappled light Falling upon my eager face Winter at last has taken flight Perfection of Spring embraced. Softness permeates joyful breeze Newfound temperance everywhere Forest unfurled fresh green leaves Hellebores flourish over there. Yellow primrose quite sublime Lovely bloom in Spring's hedgerow Bluebells with their silent chime Dappled light creates mystic glow. My Winter soul at last appeased Wherever I look beauty resides Like a prayer...

Environs are rainbow-colored, I had always felt, Until an alternative perception is soon revealed; Have I ever thought that midst all these a dappled scene dwelt, Flamboyant and monochromic celluloid is concealed...? Designs painted by the sun while peeping through bushy trees, Harass of horses galloping in a cavalry realm; Black-yellow-brown strips on the nectar-hunting busy bees, Majestically strolling tiger in self-image...

Dappled dawn slowly raised its shade As brindled pit-bull puppies played Patiently the fisherman hooks the mottled rose-dotted trout Peppiness in his laughter rings out Lazily the varicolored finch's wings raise him up Elaborately bedazzled is a spring buttercup Day to night nature is dappled from higher-up Written: February 07, 2023 Sponsor: Constance Contest: Writing Challenge D Word...

Premium Member Walking Through the Dappled Forest
Walking through the dappled forest, my mind reveled in its magnificence The first thing I noticed was the shadowed silence; it was self-empowering. More relaxing than a power nap. A large shadow flew over the tree line. I focused on where I thought it might be next, it was a gorgeous hawk. At the bottom of the ravine there...

Dappled Winds Phantom gliders in the sky rise at day To rush the firmament on dappled winds, Heaven’s piebald appaloosas at play, Brindled tempests ruffle zephyr’s fringes On stippled flurries in mistral tinges - Flecks of dirges – the haunting calls of loons – Laugh with ecstasy at mosaic breeze, Born from the mottled rainbow’s pure cocoon, In a dappled dance of impish teases. 2-11-22 Contest:...

Doves, mountain robins, starling, pond heron, Dogs, donkeys, horses, deer, tigers splendid; Creatures existing in alien terrain Masterly molded; charmingly blended; Dappled beauty is enchantment tended, Gleaming, glowing, glazing and glistening, Dappled spottiness has brief brightening; Dappled persons are brave and courageous, In look solemn, tough, rough and frightening In actions swift, sharp, sincere, serious... 07 January 2022...

Premium Member Dappled Rainbow Hues Upon the Floor
"Family love, hugs, smiles, laughter and acceptance of togetherness within a home, precious moments made. Quote_by Poet" The sunlight streams though the stain glass window dappled rainbow hues upon the floor, dust specks dance on beams of light in the shadow. A tipped deep breath blown; then fades in trust. Children run down the stairs ever robust songs of merry and...

Premium Member Dappled Dawn
Like melodies from night leaves sent over Above the pebbled rivers, her hooves float Across glens with misty drops of clover Embroidered in a dwindling dark, she coats The sleeping land with birdcall's silver notes A flash, perhaps, between a pine and fir A starlit ghost, gone as the sunlight stirs A fabled murmur, unseen and undrawn Glimpsed as stillness where moons and...
