Elaborates Poems | Examples


Premium MemberSaxophone Souls

My piano plays from the composer from full moon for you 
My harp heart elegantly elaborates love for your handsome true 
My body bursts in a bountiful orchestra of a break-through 
Our saxophone souls swoon together in pearls of doves' coos

Premium MemberMy Fencing Buddy: NEW Balliol Verse Form

A Balliol rhyme is a doggerel verse form with a distinctive meter. A quatrain, with a pair of couplets (rhyme scheme AABB), with four beats per line. Written by the poet who elaborates on their character, exploits, or predilections.

Once was a bird who had enjoyed
her timeless spend became annoyed
when my new Tom bravely demands
cat's pointed views hid claw commands.

Yes, While Evil Spreads Its Long Greedy Hands

In this world wherein poets dare to live
A crazy place where evil flourishes
O' but tis it not true rich barely give
Honey and manna that so nourishes
Yet the greedy ones take all they can get
They screaming loud, "we must have more and more"
We are busy stealing our biggest score
Poet sees this and elaborates
About wickedness, unsatisfied greed
With poetic words what pure truth so states
Of the plight of the hungry so in need.

Yes, while evil spreads its long greedy hands.
Downtrodden organize to take their stand.

Premium MemberA Dawn Arrives Bearing Message of Heart

A dawn arrives bearing message of heart
And pleads with the sun to disperse the fog
And engages the sky to paint its horizon
In orange and pink with shades of crimson

Not much time it has to say what it wants
Before it must leave and pass the baton,
Regret's written in the missive morn carries:
Patient he must be to realize his dream

Confused is he for the words don't match
The celebration he sees in beaming skyline
Evoked by the goodbye of parting aurora
Encoding her passions on rising golden arc

Meet him she will but not till the evening
Not till the sunset elaborates her theme
Painting on blue tapestry lavender imprints
As she readies to decode what romance is

Premium MemberFearful and Perplexed

Fading sun elaborates
Tuscan yellow tinges
As vibrancy floats
Lavender on periwinkle
Embossing clouds 
In shades of amethyst

Granting scenic vision
Atop the red bridge
Suspended in perpetuity
From vermilion towers
In resplendent posture

Sounding final appeal
From the complacent sea
Echoed by morbid hills
Seducing her fragility

Prompting her to leap
Gasping last breath
Fearful and perplexed
If there's solace in death

The Morning

Thy heart beat's swiftly
The morning dew evaporates
The sun shines briskly
The sky's cloud's elaborates
I fly as high as the moon
As love hits me like a monsoon
I look into the eyes of my love
& stars shine like from up above
Tenderly i rub her feet
& bring about a calming deep
A deep emotionaltive leap
& move up her thigh so soft & seep
Seep into her skin on her hip
& kiss her lips

Daydreaming

Listen, I declare she's prominent
At least to me but her love is eminent
In her world she has me titled as her president
She's my first lady, there's no other, she set a precedent

Her advice exceeds any, she's influential
I need her; you don't understand it's crucial
Synchronized feelings, no difference just mutual
Engage her in conversation you'll see her potential

Wait....pondering how her touch infiltrates
Takes control, enters different coordinates
She said i'm a gift so every day she celebrates
I feel blessed while her love elaborates

I didn't write this but her heart did
She's a human anti-virus, I installed her, believe I did
She recognises interferences and dismisses them with speed
She needs my love for herself with absolute greed

I love her indeed

Liszt On a Monday...

It's all about a girl who wished the sea
and pinned her heart to the moon
induced by the opening lyrics
of classical music without any words
While the river runs straight to the blood stream
and emotion elaborates ear drums
in depths of believable currents
with closed eyes and obvious head nods-
she waits.
Honeysuckle sweet and three shakes to the sun
for passion and yearning has only begun
to pin to the moon in music when young
we weep and we weep and we weep.
It's all about this girl who wished the muse
and had much to say and never refused
her silence.
She listened with ears of an eighty year old
and a heart of an ancient enigma.
In music she spoke without all the right notes
and she triumphed in welling refrain.
This girl is my heart to be pinned to the moon
without music, to barely contain.
