Premium Member The Gate Sprung, Shut
I turned to look back, feeling anxious as I stood "by the squeaky old gate that tomorrow will find." Was there someone there watching me? The gate creaked shut, echoing the taint of guilt That I hoped no one heard. Earlier I came through this gate to meet you in the woods. It was rusty, stuck shut, and needed a heavy...

Premium Member By the squeaky old gate that tomorrow will find
Why do we call the good old days, good? Grandma was always talking, talking about the days that had passed. I wonder if they were really that good, or does our mind play a trick on us? Grandma loved sitting on her porch, looking out over her land in her rocking chair. Now the old rustic white fence, is falling down...

Premium Member Beyond the Cemetery Gate
Withering weeping willows shade wrought-iron gates, creaking in the midst of a cool mid-autumn gale. Starless, charcoal skies loom above, as birdsong of nightingales drifts through the evening. Coming upon a worn, dirt-laden path, frost-burnt grass lines the edges, beckoning me to mourning’s sorrow. Marble statues of angels, frozen in prayer, greet me. falling to my knees, I brush the crisp leaves from your...

Premium Member To Karin: Brandenburg Gate
Like some dark frail bird she quivered and fluttered there at my door one dark cold Advent night, swearing to return come the new year with a photo of Brandenburg Gate. Arms, hands, fingertips, eyes, then nothing between us but electrified space – her light tread descending the steps – my heart drawn downward by the diminishing sound. Sometimes still my heart is snared between winter a swirling hem and Brandenburg...

Premium Member Beyond the Gate
On gentle currents of the air I'll take my rest, my final rest, my essence gliding on the waves of time's eternal peacefulness. I'll see the ocean of your tears like waterfalls born deep, flow free, and hear the vows that linger still upon devotion's buoyancy. The winds of promise soon will change the fear and sorrow I now see and spread love's everlasting flame across...

Premium Member opening the gate to my dog pen
Hypervigilant are both dogs Fat and juicy, built like farm hogs They are in a huge pen with plenty to do Do they know that I, their gatekeeper, is watching them too? I am vastly aware how fast they are As I open the gate, not far from a car Being knocked down by the front gate Is pretty often now my...

Intent On Camping
Not your ordinary, average date, a country ramble, a stile a gate, and here's the pitch, “We won't go far, or stay up late.” Now he and she sitting silently, beside the flickering fire, innocently she believes, camping separately within tent, is where they will retire. But his fuse was lit when first they met, longingly he knows and yet, that's not what's on his mind, nor what...

Between the Lost Gate
We want to visit heaven’s gate, Men exclaimed in joy for their fate. A 5 minutes tour made men fell, Begging for more, heaven for hell. And Oh! Her beauty stole her brain, Grace to grass, she took stain for gain. “My past will not matter” she says, As men call in lust while she pays. She sat there nude, the path runs...

Premium Member Delivered Through Heaven's Gate
Quote: “Lenses grant vision, perspectives determine what we see.” Poet As faith confirmers, glorious, color-chorused rainbows caress. Brilliant beauty as fresh delivered through Heaven’s gate, brightens human hopes, uplifting faith to further radiate. Sensations sparkling gloriously bright as any God made jewel grant elation promises that soothe any doubts man may mutter. For many, rainbows are a visual grabber, seeing...

"The faces of pretty flowers will brighten anyone's day." By Poet Today I took a walk down the street, and found a beautiful flower garden. I was in awe of the "Jewel" like flowers, some stretching their heads over the white fence. The "Gate" was open so I went in, the bunny heard me "Mutter" heavenly place. A weeping willow caught...
