Flickering Ember
How did the sea become a crime? How did its blue become a bruise on the face of history? How did the verdure turn into red wrath, breathing fire into burned hearts, leaving behind it a black, frosty funeral? How did the tree become a Fury? Her strands of fire strewn above the dew and tranquil mounts Furious fire and melted iron Lava and...

Written: March 14, 2025, for contest Sponsored by: Constance La France ***************** After the rain, the air smells musty and moist, and smoke swirls clumsily upward from chimneys, as they float away, the leaves crackle and rattle.

Watching the hourglass passing time While sipping water kissed with lime The distant bells softly start to chime Their echoes weave a gentle rhyme Deepening shadows move like a mime Slow dancing near the scents of thyme They push ahead starting their climb Yielding to shining stars in their prime The scale of beauty is nature’s dime Missing such splendor should be a crime ...

Our Dying Love Love is like a dyin' ember Only memories remain Through the ages I'll remember Blue eyes cryin' in the rain Blue Eyes Cryin’ In The Rain Willie Nelson When we were young, love flamed in hot passion. Our souls entwined in bliss and separation brought anguish Living in the moment brought joy. Our love is fading now, and the spark is growing...

A spark ignited when our paths first crossed, Your knowledge kindled, my ignorance tossed. From a timid flicker to a steady glow, Our bond, like embers, began to grow. Your wisdom blazed, a guiding light so bright, Illuminating truths are once hidden from sight. In learning's heart, our spirits intertwined, A sacred fire of mentor and mind. But time, relentless, feeds on mortal...

Premium Member A Fading Ember
A Fading Ember In shadows cast by waning light, A love once vivid, now takes flight. Our candle that once burned so bright, Now stings of a cold, harsh night. I see the distance in your eyes, Reflecting echoes of love's goodbye, Emptiness in your silent stare, A longing that lingers in the air. A...

Night and War
Ominous echoes hush the song of eternity. Sky is an ember: Black and red and untouchable. Night extends Till day seems impossible. Echoes stab the night Till it crumbles over our heads. The air bleeds. The eyes fall shut Seeking an escape, Yet the violent glares blind. Merciless glares replicate; The night is darker than ever....
