Premium Member An Evanescent Life - Xaxa Sonnet
Our life is as evanescent as the trumpet flower of the morning glory. The merest chapter in the history of mankind’s ever compelling story. Various serendipitous ramblings ultimately contingent ‘on quarry; retold to captive audience in tones melodious as silver-tongued lory. Redolent of an evening-scented stock, with a crown of wispy hair as hoary, we insist...

Premium Member A Vision Evanescent
When the sun set, and night descended, When the day with all its unrest quietly fled, Feeling tired and sleepy, I closed the door And languidly got onto my cozy bed. At an unexpected time and hourof the night You broke upon me as a euphonic melody In the wee hours when I was in deep slumber You barged into my thoughts...

I have seen you flash by Amidst thick green foliage and swaying pines Like a distant silver dream On receding skyline But was never satisfied For a close encounter I craved I did then go up The Space Needle in Seattle Hoping to have a clear view Of your snow-clad balding pate That thought profound thoughts Against mortal blues of the empty sky But, alas, you remained Elusive...

Epiphany of Nature
The ineffable love of nature, Gives a feel of ebullience. The petrichor that comes from the soothing rain, Relieves all the pain! A glimpse at the beautiful rainbow, The rainbow which is always evanescent Makes us euphoric. The itsy-bitsy homes in the cities, Gives us a limerence of phosphene....

Premium Member Sleep, Evanescent
Deep, deep, deeper ... A dark so fluid I am lost Swimming, choking, in ink Still, I dive, soaring down, down Faster and faster as I dive I breathe now, sucking in light And brilliance and purifying joy I fill my being with blinding brilliance And it strengthens me, faster Just before I hit, I shift upward Soaring into a glimmering indigo Breath of knowledge and...

You Evanescent
Nature's color of the leaves from Dokhona This is in the air, you touch me, go by Lovely life my dear To follow voice of the flute to the west. You be Asagi Baisagi Sometimes sits in the background blowing, You ever sit cute Cloud's edge athlete's card. I have to joke sometimes don't recognize Daosa-mwkreb like you, be ashamed Really very kind and shy In...

Beauty Is Evanescent
Beauty is evanescent My eyes have seen unspeakable, incomprehensible beauty. I thought I knew what beauty was and then... I met you! Your apparition left me astonished entranced, tongue tied, mesmerized... My eyes could never be the same again... how could they be... as all the beauty beforehand seen now had a new reference point... and that was you! Curiously though, under more careful observation and scrutiny over time I noticed something distinctive...

Evanescent Love
Eyes locked - limpid pools of longing, Touch of silky skin upon skin, One mixed breath to both belonging, A passion disguised so very thin. Frozen in the fathomless swirl of time, Perhaps a drop, or less, in the infinite scheme, A look that's fleeting, yet forevermore, Lost and longing souls unrequited cruel dream. Thundering train with banshee scream, Jars and jerks, comes...

Evanescent Splendour
Circumscribed as her life was By the inescapable miasma of stifling destitution, Lovely but not luscious, She delighted in wading through A valley strewn with thorns But hers was never a stroll through a grove of roses Her petals laden with perfume As the proverbial fair flower of the same name. All arms...

Evanescent
Ephemeral is this life. Do not be Vain and squander it randomly, Allow for humility and affection. Narcissism is the worst sin Enticing one’s soul down a Slippery slope of Conceit and debauchery; Enlightened yourself to this Nebulous life which is Temporary like a shimmering bubble. ~01/04/2016 ~Any Poem contest by Broken Wings...

Evanescent Life
A pawn in hand of circumstance The serendipity We find the answer with a dance And scorn the apathy The efflorescence of our faith When all has gone awry Beleaguered by the storm we stay Safe only in the eye Yearning for propinquity, we pray God only knows we try While some grasp at shadows of a rope Others hold the hand A shattered hourglass,...

Evanescent Pastures
Vanishing souls lies in death's pastures Fleeting joy, incurious in my surroundings  Shades of green glistening in glory  An unpredictable breath that barely measures A destiny that lies and vanishes through the Death Valley A heart's main glee  Shines peaceably... passing above a wave of sparkling envy Bliss sinks in my marrow  Pensive solitude,  Splitting it into a rejoicing vibe  Joyous in its company...we could...
