Premium Member THE KILLING FIELDS
This horrendous Cambodian war-time story, Ends with Cambodian glory, Journalists forged a strong friendship within hard cruel times, It is one of the best movies ever and all so true, These two men Sydney Schanberg and Dith Pran In the face of horrific adversity Face death, threats, imprisonment, catastrophe, Yet together, help and document about a hovering Communist strategy. The Vietnam war at...

Premium Member Elysian Fields Are Beautiful in Spring
Opa John The caboose sits red—its iron spine cradles the earth like Atlas rails stretching into nowhere. The stream murmurs softly its voice threading through Ellie’s laughter like silver wire "Do you see it?" I ask her my voice a splintered cello "The train, Ellie—the one that carries us westward past the edge of the world where Cronus grinds his teeth and...

When Fields Becomes Cities
Once there stood a golden field, Swaying crops, a farmer's yield. Morning songs of birds took flight, Beneath the sky so vast and bright. The village paths, of dust and stone, Where children laughed and cattle roamed, Now paved with tar, so smooth and wide, Where restless cars and buses glide. The thatched-roof homes with lantern’s glow, Replaced by lights in glassy rows. The banyan...

There's not time enough for me.. to look for you, nor you to look for me. Though you may have many years I have only hours, that's why I left you flowers. There's little chance for me to recognize your face find your parading eyes, reduce the useless space. A curse to some, perhaps. but I'm content with my life and lot. After all...

Green Fields to Cold Steel
The fire burns, with embers glow Even still, this house feels cold The wind softly sighs it's goodbyes I lay two plates upon the wood Though one gets cold I pour the tea, it spills and pools My hands shake at the thought of you The clock still ticks, the world still turns But time means little to me With every knock I pray...

In The Fields Of Hope where the Warriors roam where Roses fall along with Pricks and Thorns, where Rivers Of Ideals flow with Fortitude Upwards, One with the Bliss of Solitude So High, towards Mountain Peaks of Victory and Grace There, In Most Haste, I Have Arrived In Faith...

Buttered Fields
Buttered Fields It was early when she was tickled awake as light eased under the eaves to trickle through a sigh of curtains, to whisper across the bedroom floor, to nudgingly nestle beside her…..and beam! Outside the sun had buttered the fields, mellowing, yellowing the crisp, morning dew. The girl awoke wearing playful eyes and a zestful imagination wishing for a form...

Premium Member A Dragonfly And Fairy Fantasy
Once up on a giant sunflower, A pink fairy lost her way in grand green fields She sat alone for what seemed hours When out of nowhere a blue dragonfly yields Will you come and sit with me before you go? The dragonfly stayed and sang a lovely lullaby ...

FIELDS
FIELDS Ploughed and turned over, the field respects the annual makeover. Not just to support another season of growth, but to remain fertile and welcoming, come rain or shine. It shows its face to the sky and smiles. The earth tries to breathe Deep soil moves ever slowly Yielding more new life ...

Premium Member Hay Fields
Hay Fields Harvest of ripened fodder yields In rolls of hay littering the fields. Golden, dried under the sun, For livestock winter consumption; Who still graze in rich Fall pastures, Unaware of Summer’s departure. Fattening on earth’s green grasses, Basking in the warmth of contentment. Crops of vegetables: corn, and potatoes. Grains of barley, oats, flax, wheat, and canola. Combines reaping, threshing, and winnowing With other machinery;...

In Once Green Fields
In once green fields the larks no longer sing, Nor rise the owls to meet the waxing moon, For here amongst the mud no living thing, Is left to tell the horror men have known. A place now scarred and blighted for all time, Stands haunted by what never should have been, This testament to human, bloody crime Stands silent witness to...

Premium Member Stillness in November
Over harvested fields — I walk beneath the fading afterglow of a forgotten lantern a path worn by wanderers older than the scroll of Zeno its damp salve seeping through my coat into my bones Fog an Erebian curtain a Stygian veil barn swallows following susurrus secrets of the soul each step a slow exhalation a...
