Sentimental Mood
Ellington is sitting and tinkling the black and white keys Coltrane standing and blowing like an autumn breeze Mood__ Nostalgic, misty-eyed, and feelings of tenderness Her sweet perfume lingers, her velvety voice echoes, and her sweet caress I cherish Sentimental__ Relishing, missing, and longing for a distant but not forgotten yesterday Today, I sit alone. Alone in a sentimental...

Missing
I'm lost Without your hand To hold The walk To school of life Less bold You vanished In a Puff. So quickly My heart So sad My tummy sickly No stop No hug The speeding car Whisked you Away No au revoir The color In my life Now blue My hand So cold. I'm missing you CV 1.7.25...

Premium Member The Wicket Keeper
**The Wicket-Keeper** Today, I learned that a lover I once cherished has passed away. Just yesterday, he was alive, and I never imagined I would feel this way about him. It’s strange how I rarely think about the rain unless it floods my drains, my driveway, or my beloved rose garden, or dampens my happy mood....

Premium Member Gone Through Heaven's Gate
The ghostly night was filled with gloom As from your grave we walked away. Grief-stricken, there beside your tomb; Through Heaven's gate you've gone. A friend you were until that day You met your godforsaken doom And taken through death's alleyway. From the long stay in your dim room Where pain and groaning came to stay, Gossamer wings you now assume; Through Heaven's gate you've...

The Grave Silence Over Gaza
I write not with anger, but with the burden of sorrow that cannot be cleansed by diplomacy nor buried beneath the noise of geopolitics. For in Gaza, the earth drinks the blood of children, and the sky records the cries of mothers, while the world—our world—calculates the cost of silence. Under the shadow of international law, we proclaimed the right to...

FOREVERMORE
You laid me in the earth But I am with you, you are not alone. I caress your check disguised as the wind. I hug you as the warmth of the sun. I sing to you as birds tweeting And the owls hooting. I am the movement of the clouds Sheltering you from the heat. As I watch over...

In Good Company
longevity... a natural proclivity of the mind the want... the desire to live a long... prosperous life basking in rays of sunshine... though even in the midst of life's strife's we dig our heels in and deal with life's spills... in hushed awareness we know one day the curtain will close our sun will set in our medley of...

Another family gathering the place is packed with deep blue sadness for the passing of yet another friend. Faces are strained to the edge of recognition. pretty bouquets garnish a garish metal basket holy man staggers to capture the soul of a stranger ancient chants spraying salt over those that remain. Like a game of she loves me she loves me not life...

Premium Member The Grief I Feel is of Another Kind
The grief I feel is of another kind Sweeter than holy water A deeper breath than moorland air to find The black of midnight, not— Of monstrous seas, but— Of restful night, donated cloak From a kindly gentleman to wear Wrapped in coolest starlight, safe Astride a destrier — galloping to water Molted feather — fortuitously found New flight, gentle wind...

Premium Member Row by Row the Nettles Grow
Row by row the nettles grow And circles do surround Hairy stems the prison wires And jagged leaves their barbs. Cry out, forsaken sinner Your voice shall not be heard We listen to the wind song And hark its piercing sound. Your poison nettle vapours Cling to my moistened lungs And acrid nettle juices Drip from my swollen mouth. Alone, now in death— Eden’s angel looms Sword...

Premium Member Playing Chicken with an Old Friend
no blink, no bluff— just rust-bitten bikes on a gravel road, grip slipping, brakes optional. we called it honing our craft, we didn’t dodge. we needed the crash— proof we meant it, authentication we weren’t just trading truths for dopamine and DMs. some bicycles are built to survive impact. mine wasn’t one of them....

The Silence Of Your Voice
The Silence Of Your Voice No new day have I seen since you went away, like trying to empty the oceans with a spoon, tears fall in the hole left so deep in my soul. Words spoken spin like a vortex never leaving always hurting, promises of a life together...

Behind the facade
I gave up on everything, I gave up on everyone. I know this is a heaven, but I just don't think it was meant for me. If you knew me you would judge me for all those mistakes So like the rest of us I carry this smile on my face and act like everything is alright...

Halcyon Fall
Through the beige isle, veins of green holler aloud Lush foliages of maple, yet I pick upon a rosebud Mists of sentiment brabble, springing whistles of reminiscing From the floor, they call out to me, unrelenting I kept at it, pacing across the vast meadow Lights begin to dim, even so, I shall escape under the nightly glow Along the paths,...

Think Love When You Think God
He knows our every thought and he truly cares. Our Creator and God love us and he is there! He never forces himself upon me or you. He gave us freewill and allows us to choose. Sure he could force us all to do things his way. But then were just robots, doing whatever He say. Think about a parent, programming...
