Dazzle Poems

A Momentary Dazzle

Sunlight tumbles
over an open window,
then swallow-dives
into a silver kitchen sink.

Fractals of reflected iridescence
dance over China plates.

A surface tension
between a faucet and a drop of water
creates a solar flare
within its liquid release.

I imagine a mighty splash,
picture an arching rainbow
cresting over high waves.

Buoyant beams
spill over the glinting rim
of a breakfast spoon.

Premium MemberA Dazzle of Poetry



pulchritudinous ingots chisel and shades
dazzle and illuminate umpteen reasons

poetry is like a swirling, susurrus-sibilant chimera
of innuendo arty souls, albeit vapid syntax
around serene scenery, orbs, and idealism

Is unction vital to adorn naked words with plumose wings?
whose views of contentment, vim, and happiness?
Inversely hamstringing people with arrows?

sighs of sorrow sound sowed soil
mothers, wailing and yelling out to unborn spirits

as our hearts crave affection
poetry provides its verisimilitude vacuum

do susurrus coruscating suborn scarlet spills?
deep within a stymie pirouette
the tortured sinews of a troubled mind are twisting

my life bill was still due till my final breath
I bequeath you my spirit as expressed in sonnets
I bequeath you my marrow, wrapped in iambic style
I bequeath you my mind, crafted with mispronunciation
sharing with those who owe me a xanthous soul

Premium MemberHedrick will Dazzle Your Eyes Out

Em had said, “Hedrick is so gorgeous now, he will dazzle your eyes out”.
We met him at a posh restaurant; both his arms were covered with tattoos. He would have looked tough if I had not known him as a baby.
floral arrangement behind him softened him up too.

Premium MemberRazzmatazz

Razzmatazz is jazz beyond roots and blues.
Razzle-dazzle kaleidoscope of hues.
Music and dance with multi-color moves.
Its pizzazz and cool schmooze amuses.
It fizzes glitz and glamour in views.
Which delight even the sanest muses,
To write poems no reader refuses,
To be dazzled, frazzled by its uses
Of words come to play with no excuses.

There I stood in the darkest of light 
The glittering edge of forever  night
Ahead I tried to peer
Through a glimmer of a tear
Dazzling my wide open eyes
Seeing time, how it flies
Stepping ahead into the light
Just looked so right 
Changing of a way 
Time set aside for a day
Stepping within the tick and the tock
Standing still halting your walk
 To step into this warm light
It looked so right
But fear held me in place 
It showed on my face
Future is of the unknown 
We know what the past has shown 
Free of the shadow of night
Looked so right
I took that step foward
Pushing my way ever foward
Then one day 
Happy to say
Was standing in that light
And it felt so  right

Dazzle

Thunder drops a huge boulder of sound.
CRASH.
Count...1 & 2 & 3
FLASH.
brain tremors oscillate fright waves!

Is that my face in the sky?
What took my picture
as I looked into those lit-up eyes?

Could it be?
No,
I'm still here aren't I?
The deaf hear my heart-beats don't they?

Dogs bark on an edgeless periphery.

Go home draw what you did not see -
or did you?

Dazzle

Prismatic beams
flashing bright
red and orange
blue and green
Crystal wings
so quickly move
as butterflies
to flowers go
	
blossoms of
rubies carved
sapphires too
glow in the light

emeralds shaped
pulse with life
from mother Earth
into the light

chimes ring out
their carillon calls
songs of nature
sung by the birds

Premium MemberMy Yellows and Oranges Dazzle

What sorcery is afoot in the woods on this October night?
I stir a few embers, and relight myself
The humans asleep or dead, I don’t care which
I am alive, a fire phoenix, replenishing my absoluteness

An owl hoots a warning, trying to wake them up
I begin to dance, as warmth spreads throughout my timbers
Sure, you thought I was dead, but surprise. 
I am replenishing myself, understanding no one else will

Sparks! A joy overtakes me as hope and optimism arrive
A flash of yellow, on her way to becoming full out red.
A flame. I scream with happy pops and smacks.
Bam! I am once again a full blown blaze.

Why do these campers never put me out completely?
Do I care? I am leaping, lunging, laughing, loving myself.
My yellows and oranges are dazzling the entire forest.
My flame shadows light up the tents of the sleeping.

I am mystical, magical, ethereal, an alchemist, a sorcerer.
How will they react when they realize I have again 
Forsaken them, and burned up another forest thanks to them?
I am impassioned, alive, a full blown pyromaniac of a fire!

Premium MemberWhen I Get Old I Will Dazzle Your Eyes Out

When I get old I will dazzle your eyes out
I will become a giant spectacular supernova
I will be awesome and fierce and people will shudder at my brilliance

When I get old I will turn into a cosmos
A galaxy of my own truths, and my own opinions
I will not be afraid to use my powers to pinpoint your truths 
and opinions to a flimsy board with a pin.

When I get old I will collect my thoughts and 
Sprinkle them through the galaxy, so upon my death
They will land on your heads or spank you 
with my intelligent imaginative truths.
