Five Poems

Premium MemberIn the olden days, like about five years ago'

Take a trip to the west from town..Till you
Arrive at kryal castle..It was the first one
Around..You can see knights jousting? Sit in
The great hall.' I ate fresh baked bread there
Still warm, dipped in fresh cream..peasants
Fare.' To get a feel for the scenes.' For how it
Was in a medevil age, n'all.' There is chance to image

Five More Minutes

Sometimes I wonder
What’s the point of anything
Five more minutes
Five more minutes of suffocating
Of not being able to breathe
I’m afraid I’m starting to bleed
From this incision that you made on my heart
This nonstop drift
Everything shifts
While you're off to sleep
I sit here, eyes wide
I try practicing my smile
It feels like someone is controlling me
Puppet on a string
Just

Five Pillars

A house will stand when pillars five
Are cared for so it can survive.

People – hearts that build the way,
Their trust decides if dreams will stay.

Organisation - bones and frame,
Without clear roles, all falls to blame.

Processes - the hidden streams,
That carry work, that shape our dreams.

Information - truth in hand,
The compass strong in shifting sand.

Technology -

Premium MemberFive Star Mother

On a little country farm,
Beneath a Mighty Oak.
There, before Five Headstones,
An old Woman in a cloak.

Though dug so long ago,
The Graves were freshly kept.
With Bible in her hand,
On her knees, the Woman wept.

Five Sons fell in Battle,
Three on Land and Two at Sea.
Now every Year, to the Day,
Was there on bended knee.

This somber scene repeats,
Too

The Last Five Senses '2

By~Krish

The wind arrived without warning
its cold fingers lifted him
like paper from my hands.
He dissolved,
like ink in water.
The tulips crumbled into ash
that danced away
before it could touch the ground.

The earth tilted beneath me
and I fell.



When my eyes opened,
I was somewhere else.
The sun was too bright,
its heat warped by a crowd
gathered in a trembling circle.

At their center,
a

The Last Five Senses '1

By~Krish

I opened my eyes 
and the air was a still lake
that would no longer ripple for me.
My breath was a whisper,
a moth beating tired wings
against the glass of existence.

They stood beside me,
their tears pooling like rain
in the fragile valleys beneath their eyes,
and I knew,
by the tremor in their silence,
that I was already leaning
across the border

Premium MemberNine five one three

Nine, five, one, three—  
Is that truly all that remains of you?  
What fragments of me linger in your mind?  
If only you would take a moment to slow down  
And gaze upon the world that unfolds before you.  

Your way of life is shrouded in enigma.  
Your sixth

Five Steps

Over the head of each metatarsal
you can see
where each has been pounded,
some more abused than others.

Over the years
new prominences and depressions
form and reform.

Surreal faces appear
within the lines of the skin,
features that now seem
to look inward
as if the hammer had become that
which it had once so heavily hit.

In the tenderness of your elder years,
if you touch

Premium MemberMoment No 1 Point Five

A smile can change everything
And everything has worn the same outfit since Adam and Eve started sewing designer fig leaves 
Which leads me to the conclusion…No, you’re not my person but for 3 seconds it felt a 10-year anniversary
A moment framed in my better day’s gallery 
Knowing we were both thinking something similar means everything

Premium Memberlooking back five years ago

Two formidable contenders are battling for the crown, each making grand promises. Where do we go wrong? What wisdom does our Bible impart about speaking in tongues? It's a reality that for one to win, another must lose; that’s the essence of this game change. We know that nothing will ever be the same again.

July first two thousand and twenty five

July first two thousand and twenty five...
signals the eighth year we lived
at our present location,
where fringe benefits (a plug) for perks
living at 2 highland manor drive.

Expanse of green acres draped
like a petticoat when ye arrive
birds of a feather flock together
and bees gather collect nectar,
pollen, and water to bolster their hive
verdant vista sports

Jacko - Michael Jackson 1958-2009

Singing and dancing,
as the last to arrive,
he outshone his brothers
in the Jackson Five.
Moonwalking across the stage,
he was quite the fancy dancer,
but what happened to his other glove,
is a question no one can answer.
Comparing the early to his later work,
you can hear it when he sings,
Michael the 'King of Pop',
put a new complexion on things.
But in

Premium MemberTwo Plus Two Equals Five

This tactic, 2+2=5,  is a direct reference to George Orwell's novel "Nineteen Eighty-Four", where the party in the novel tries to force Winston to accept that 2 + 2 = 5. 

Meanwhile let us just forget 
about Joseph Biden's Presidency 
beginning with the Russian 
invasion of Ukraine
and the debacle of withdrawal 
from Afghanistan (did those
