Eves Poems

Magdalenes and Eves

"Magdalenes and Eves"

Pin the tale on the donkey
there’s something in the way She moves
a harlot by any other name, pages of 
Magdalenes and Eves

the ruin of every good world of righteous man 
opened doors and gates to new universal territories 
before and always will 
and freedom was still kept tight 

before the flood birthed doves

Blackens Embraces Saturn's Kiss At Eves Night-

Morning comes shuns the light:
 The solar sun shines ever bright;
Those the clouds wash away;
Brightness turns yellow hues to gray;
~
Evening comes tonight;
Moon shines smiles bright;
Grinning through the darkness:
Blackens embraces Saturn kiss;

In Autumn's Eves

IN AUTUMN’S EVES

     With closed eyes in Autumn’s eves of gold
     My muse flows with glory of auburn Autumn.
     I feel mild Autumn zephyr to murmur.
     In my eager arms I wish you to hold.

In Autumn's Eves of Gold

*When with closed eyes, in autumn’s eves of gold,
I lie back on soft grass and feel the sky's
remaining warmth that emanates from sun,
I think of all the beauty to unfold.

I open up my eyes. The sun has rolled
down in the sky. Now streaks of pink appear
which darken to a deep and purple hue,
for Mother Nature

When With Closed Eyes In Autumn's Eves of Gold

When With Closed Eyes In Autumn's Eves Of Gold

HARK, when with closed eyes in autumn's eves of gold,
A wink ere throws saffron sparks straight together,
When August incandesce ransomed stretched oft hold,
Petals smoothly turned like some noiseless feather,
The moment spent on pleats of these gown pauses,
To combine some proposed begged renown causes,
Here spread all sad chapters

blossom through our sultry eves

The Eves of May

Maelstrom, O thou devil 
Slither past last March then unto April
Into the eves and ides of May 

Thou cannot hide, but thou wilt try
To disguise thy age old blackness
Forsake what once were brighter skies
Stranglehold; sane extraction

And the spills of night
A new tone deafness
Burning oil; sentiment molasses 
Bringing storms that cloud minds human and fragile 

Spheres
