Engraven Poems | Examples


I Love a Good Plot

The skeletal remains are being chalked out,while mystery and intrigue are engraven, cryptic.Lying beneath, this freshly seeded idea;upon these grounds, the words are etched,what are you looking for and how will you get it,for these are but the bare bones of a story.The key alone is in your closet, slowly turning,as you opened the creaking rusted door.You slowly peep inside the mausoleum of your mind,where cobwebs hang on every angle.Suddenly, a cold swift draft blows across your spine,as if someone has just, walked on your grave. You look up to see, all the entrapping’s laidbut then again, you are still lying in a good plot.

Premium MemberNew Mystery

In the un-engraven word
Muddling tensions persist.
Joy labors not,
But joy can be found through labor.
The grays are shining at night.
The grays are shining at night.

Sky's Limit

See up there the crest of heaven
Cast aside the earthly realms
Touch black, scorched and engraven
Earth again, rocket down, ready helms.

Did you seize divinity past sky's limit?
Erasing gravity with your metal falcon
Limitless physic forces as you rim it
This invisible barrier a vacant balcony

Unhappy with these bonds upon us
Seeking outward bounds of new worlds
Scorching reality with rocket fuels fuss
Welcome back to Terra-Firma boys
Is it still you?
Houston... we have a problem.

A Sleeping Silhouette

Earliest of the morning light
peers its silly little smiles
Peeking through shades and sills

Swathing ambience surrounds
Sketching out a silhouette
Sleeping contours satin covered still

Gentle touches, my fingertips paint as brushes
Traces, the wildflower’s presence
Lying silent among the daffodils

Fine captured lines of radiance
Savor the ages of overflowing wines
Upon her sculptured rills

Each dip of arc in moments defined
Lightly engraven and etched
Upon the passing of time… fulfilled

Michael G. Smith/ Soft senuality

Then, her warmth
And that of the sunlight
Unite to mingle with her essence spilled

A sensual fragrance, among the treliss shadowed room
Euphoric of her swirling incense
My soul once empty, now begins to fill

She feels my leers
And begins to stir
Then, ebony curls arouse surreal

Also, those sleepy eyes melting chocolates of blinks and stares
Where the sun shines, once again
As amber sparkling smiles reveal

Our special love, a union eternal
As she draws me close for embrace
And offers her now exhilirating appeal

Bullets From Heaven

Bullets, they do rain
Down from the heavens
Have no doubt
Their fallen, engraven

With your name 
Sprawled 
Across the casing

Spent shells
Hit the ground
Ring out
Bells in repentence

Teflon coated 
Words of forgiveness 
Piercing the heart
Of those less dead

Premium MemberYouth's Vim and Vigor

Bedtime a time of quiet remembering
Surely there is the Whip-poor-will's call
Definitely thrice was the ghost calling
No_only an old woman's dream in fall

Now my life seems to pass uneven
As a winter's night storm first rain _ice
Wrestling against old age soon engraven
Longing for youth's vim and vigor thrice

Somehow there'll be a brand new season
Spring soon will spring_ridding earth of ice
There will be a very great reunion
Where the birds and butterflies entice

To all things good or bad there are seasons
Now flash forward__to forever spring paradise

Premium MemberA Handaxe

Stoneaged,
A memory
Silently resting now
Upon my sacred altarcloth;
Ancient. 
The hand of all our ancestors
Engraven in its clever shards.

My Precious Idol

My precious Idol
I hold you closer than skin
in the dark
this night
I could have revealed you in time
but would I, I wish you were 
revealed, that is
you’ve brought me to knees
slaved me to sin
each breath and each prayer
each morning 
leaving
returning,
how slow your soft touch across my chest
the speed of a decade 
crossing my breast
and then I am
as u are
master to slave
slave to will
my hideous crime
My hunger, filled
to hide
dissolve
blur and cave
those places of truth 
where precious God made
I dreamt you engraven
rounding my neck
feeling the weight
constricting loop
in ocean of sleep
descending the wake
through blue waters falling
to dark waters deep
