she could not speak.
And all her opened tear ducts

She cried a sea of tears
Because her...

If Life Did Not Have Glitches

...If life did not have glitches,
Then of what would we complain?
There’d be endless founts of riches

All our nervous tics and twitches,
Since they all would be in va...

If Bane of Joys be to get Blase

...Joy of pleasure, a child of poor parents,
Bliss alone founts from a perpetual spring,

...In time when night turned to dawn, I could see, 
It all appeared like sheer fantasy.

...Hairy spiders do not grill
    steaks on consecutive Tuesdays
  due to alternate-side-residency-
    restrictions in bushes on parkways

  Nevertheless, if seeking opportunities

Eyes of Storm

...-    -    -  Call her “Tempest”, for hers are eyes of storm.
-  Winds of passions held at bay, a torrent of tears uncried, 
-    -    -    -  Fulmine sparks caged in those confines

Swaying To the Sound

...Have you ever felt from a song

A song that reminded you how you can live
The rush of the wind, the desire to climb
A quickly-building monument to the beauty of creation

How quickly a mood cha...

Premium MemberJust What Are We To Make of the Angelic

...Just what are we to make of the angelic,
Afresh from battle, bearers of good news?
A construct quaint, a worn-out, ancient relic
Of bygone days the church just needs to lose?

No infant cherubs ...

...Pennies, dimes; silver dollars rare
are flung into cool water where
passers-by for a while have stayed
Do dreams from fountains now cascade?

Bookmarked by wistful nature

Sweet melancholy shelved for

Another day in bed with a book


Yet he opens not only his heart

But windows and soulful fo...

and no one can read your very silence

When you are brimmed with joy

...Rock-a-bye starlets where the Swan flies.
Like earthly Sun, your day will arise.
Bright shall you reign, before your light dies.
So shine in your cradle high in the skies.

   the squinting eye
A curmudgeon sure
