Premium MemberThe Iris

It stands tall
proudly pointing to the sky
reaching high toward the sun
with hints of purplish blue peeking through

Buds open ever so gently
cautious shy and humble
unsure at first of their regal stature
unaware of their innate majesty

The iris parades its generous petals
ample and graceful
floating graciously
with carefree elegance

Poised amidst the garden
the iris is remarkably unaware
of its astonishing beauty

Love or hate

How Long a wait will my weak feet endure?
For many years On your snub I still wail.
Yet Veils of lies don’t cover your allure;
Your Elegance I still cannot but hail.

Your words Often fail to convey passion,
Your heart Remains closed off to compassion,
Since you Heave out too little in response,
Within the Arcade of hatred you ensconce.

With

Premium MemberElegant Simplicity of Klein Design

A vase,
simple, elegant
smooth symmetrical,
with only one side, surface
no inside nor outside, only in between
a narrow neck extends up from the bulb
twists back on itself to meld back into the vessel
with no perceptible seam, join or mark at the intersection 
moving over its surface tracing, seemingly left and right, is not feasible
the vase, no flower bears,

O Maiden Fair

O maiden fair whose elegant space that  I, a little ant has found grace
It’s true that the breath of the devil resurrects Death

Invading my mind day and through the night,

And summertime has the sycamore fig,

Premium MemberSwans Lake Sate

Swans so gracefully gliding o'er lake
Delightful scenery they create 
Dressed all in white feather finery
True beauties of the lake dynasty.

Falling in love with love forever
Swan mates dance on water together
Singing a swan lake song as they roam
The glorious lake they've made their home.

When swans in love kiss with a beak peck
A heart shape appears betwixt

Each Elegant Elephant Is Inteligent

Elizabeth Warren

Elegant Showcase Baroque Grappling

When people lost interest in the 
American Pennant Championship
a Brazilian promoter allowed
20 men into his company
to help him restore
value to the now
devalued strap.
He promoted 
 " The Fair Day Extravaganza"
he said the winner
would be determined through
five matches: the winner of
the sixth match would
be crowned Pennant Champion,
they nicknamed the title
the Trillion Dollar Trophy
and made a trophy

Until I Close My Eyes

In the lap  of dawn, as I slept in the melody of the cool breeze,
The countryside started to whistle as she stepped on those petals.
The most elegant figure that shines along with the sun-rays,
Her smile shied the butterflies away; her single glance took the by-passers breath away.

She sang and danced to the melody of
