Aurora's Magic

The midnight wind splashes magic
Across a canvas of velvet ebony
When Aurora twirls in a winter dream.

Sparks of fantasy light up a fandango dream
Dancing neon waves spin with celestial magic
Electric rivers, purple-green, flow through stellar ebony.

Firestorms of enchantment play upon ebony
Showers of splendor sparkle in rosy dreams
Rippling prisms casts spells of dappled magic.

Dappled magic enchants ebony midnights with Aurora's dream.

Premium MemberStorms of Fall Splendor

8-16 Lines of Fall Splendor – 9-12-23
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Storms of Fall Splendor

Whirlwinds of splendor jitterbug in back streets,
Autumn’s song breathes in a blizzard of umber,
Downpours of vermillion create flushed retreats
Crimson cloudbursts, impetuous as thunder.

Tempests magenta scuttle on winding roads
While squalls of cerise in warm copper whorls twirl
Gusts of red garnet blow across the crossroads
And, like gales of laughter, orange giggles swirl.

Russet storm winds blow in dazzling fandangos 
Auburn firestorms spin in scarlet enchantment
Ethereal fogs spin gusts of gold tangos 
Flurries of sunlight – autumnal event.

Showers of glory chant in mistrals of red
Twisters of ruby across fields and moraines
Outbursts of amber, maroon brouhahas spread,
On waiting roads, sidewalks, avenues and lanes.

Marionette

A marionette to the mind,
Whispering fading schematics,
Deluging the heart and soul, in a 
Juxtaposition of good and evil, 
Betwixt Heaven and hell, amidst
Snowdrifts that swirl before my eyes, while 
Spiritless shadows restlessly carouse;
Discordantly, far from reach,
Vagrantly ambling across
Deadened Arcadias, glimpsing 
Floating embers, in wake of 
Vivid firestorms, swallowing me whole,
Faltering with every step I take,
Decelerating towards the escape I seek,
As it rhythmically scars my timorous nature, 
Awakening the monsters hidden deep within-seeing red-
Bleeding out miasmic toxins, as noxious
Spores erupt, immersed in a haze of austerity, 
While it seeps and saturates, throughout 
Malignant wounds exposed, undulating between 
The storms of push and pull, as daunting
Tasks, of rippling sequences, splits my 
Chasmic core.
Soulless footprints are all that remain, as 
Moon tides wash ashore, ebbing away
Towards dystopian depths.

Airing My Lucid Mind

There is a vendetta of thoughts going on within me
But how do I air it out?
I fear if I may orate it, not all might give me their ears
If I may scribble it, not all might scroll their eyes over it.
How do I say all the things within me?

Then I let go of these lucid words into the air,
Off-minding who cares or doesn’t.
My sole aim is
For the world to hear my voice.
Say I’m a bard learning to soar high into the sky
Say, I’m a crescent growing to a moon,
To cheer the cheerlessness of nights
Say I’m water rooting for a path to reach firestorms
And quench them
Say I am a star giving out lustrous glints.

Fire - Rage - Sapphic Stanza

Pappy dove through firestorms and hazards, blindly!
Burning both hands, losing a patch of skin and
Hopeful, Helpful, Rescuing, did it kindly
Saving poor Henry!

Premium MemberA Debt

A Debt

I’ve known whirlwinds
that swept me off my feet
earthquakes
firestorms
and ice
colder than 
backs turned in darkness
goodbyes so final you’d thought
“someone died”
laced with the words
“get out”

I’ve heard doors close
sealed
like coffin lids
never to be opened
less to exhume a rotted thing
phones hung up with no
polite human word
wonder of why you
times with hurt
neither rain or night
can ease
I’ve had hopes
daydreams 
fantasies
make it magic
you could almost touch
belief so strong
you glowed
with nothing real but thoughts

Yes,
I understand
it’s a tragedy
or a debt

Fire Operatie


FIRE OPERATIE.      (operatie is Dutch word for operation in English)


F ine matter in combustion with oxygen too luculent,
I ncandescent fire's poise flares up its ligament.
R esourceful if used with a well crafted stroke,
E nds up in its originality into a smoke.

Barbeque pomfret dances on the hot grill plate,
Fella operant is harum scarum,focus drifts to marr,
Fish a dish untowardly gets blackish straight,
Penchant of the palate now becomes a scar.

Water cycle disturbed,soil has furious fire,
Ex improviso calamities,lava,firestorms dig deep,
Diseases new to skin pop up,scorching rays conspire,
Greed of us if controlled,time again will reap.

Flambeau flickers soothing fire,inner heart purges,
So many wants wanted,this is what one urges.

Premium MemberFire

From a flicker of flames that spark up, hot and white
Inimitable heat rises up through the night
Reaching out, with it's fast, fiery fingers to take
Everything that lives, breathes or stands within it's wake.


Fire attacks, like a wicked, mad angry demon
It sears, scorching paths that destroy in due season
Firestorms can consume with a destructive passion
Like a wild, unpredictable temper tantrum.

A necessity for life, fire brings warmth and heat
An invaluable source, to cook what we eat
It can bend ore and iron, create what man wills
Whether cars, great ships or guns, for good or for ill.

A veritable force on our earthly domain
Fire's might, in it's grand glory, will ever remain.

Fire - of Ancient Origins

Fire – Of Ancient Origins

Anthropological dawning’s
Cave walls with lit magic drawings 
Of firestorms                                         

Sacred mystical deity
Cavemen prayed with fidelity
For firelights

Their children delighted and grew
History ignited the fuse
On fireworks

Sun

The horizon gives her shelter 
For another night 
To rest her rays and firestorms 
Till dawn calls for a light 
  
Then up again she rises 
To herald in another day 
With a veil of mist and fog 
In the valley down our way 
  
Above the houses now she shines 
Too bright for eye to see 
Yet we can feel her heat 
As we take shade beneath a tree 
  
The busy bees are buzzing 
In the foliage up above 
While in the pond two amorous frogs 
Are struggling to make love 
  
Now her meridian she has reached 
And we can feel her power 
Drenched with sweat and baking hot 
The only respite,  a cold shower 
  
Before too long she will dip 
Below her blue horizon 
To end for us another day 
With lots of legs to spy on 
  
Then she will take her leave from us 
For yet another night 
Leaving us with sunburnt skin 
That’s shining cherry bright 
  
Without her life would not exist 
The planet could not survive 
So sun please rise tomorrow 
To keep mankind alive

Premium MemberVisions

Eyes closed I see
shapeless shadows moving
hurrying at times but lazy

A fire burning at a front
acid burning in a crooked line
changing something, refining

A steady wing blowing from NE
a man with his head on fire
wind carrying the fire to burn dead wood

hear music soaring beyond and
above melody and harmony
not from a known genre or instrument known to man

The torso of a woman in fetal position
no arm nor legs, but smiling
long dark hair moving in a breeze
becoming a river of angels moving
through stormy clouds

Eyes open I see
shapeless shadows moving about
hurrying at times but lazy

Get a hunch of dark times coming
of earthquakes and firestorms
and of an abundance of goodness
to come.

Firestorm

Fire, fire around us…

Fire burning from the top of the mountain,
 down to the sea surrounded by fire…

Grass, brush, and trees are just glowing ambers…

Fire fighters on the ground while water dropping 
helicopter are all around, drawing up water from the
 sea, brought back to drop over the hot spots …

Here come the water tankers they are a blessing 
between them and the helicopters we should soon see relief…

Such a shame what fire does, and it was that 
idiot playing around, like to look at the flame dancing…

Water shred gone homes burnt to the ground
and yet that idiot is still running around…

What justice we should have to put these fools behind 
bars, lock them up and throw away the key…

Firestorms are nothing you want to see, and when the 
season gets hot and dry who are the nut cases that televise… 

Newspaper and newscaster should learn a thing or 
two keep there opinions to themselves for all they  
do is let those idiots know when prime time to burn…  

When property is lost you can rebuild but
 when a life is lost they are gone for good…

Firestorms

A. W. Nutter

Firestorms struck, killing man kind
Ivory towers quickly turning to dust
Treasures and fortunes all left behind
Melting, burning and gathering rust

Nuclear winter, locks the world in ice
Destroying the rest of God's creation
Man's destruction brought on from vice
Fitting testimonial to his depravation

Sun unable to penetrate the clouds
The rain continuing its endless siege
Cleansing the once fertile grounds
Nature reclaiming her lost heritage

Forests grow, at accelerated rates
No longer barren, fields turn green 
Animals, the only creatures God creates
To inhabit the new garden of Eden
