List of Member Poems

Claps and back slaps to the Black Caps chaps



Delighting our Black Caps chaps

Uniting fans fighting nite nite naps 

Gaslighting Indian foes mishaps 

Rewriting those cricketing maps 


As the Black caps hit their straps

Darryl the toast the host soul saps

Gunbarrel straight out of the traps

They unravel yet another six slaps


Our great festive carol never flaps

A late Christmas pressie unwraps

Flicks & tricks spate picks the gaps

Indian spinners fate sinners lapse


Black caps chaps claps & back slaps 

Kiwi yippee we see diddy GP scraps

Even that fat cat Virat finally snaps

Zen of Darryl and Glen victory laps


After white-wash a chance perhaps?

Hitch both Ajaz & Mitch under wraps  

No Will or Matt but still Indians zaps 


The plush crushed can’t turn off taps

Out gunned out spun another collapse

Lush waves rush flush with Black caps

Premium Member Free As a Bird

Breathing wind 
across ocean currents 
Waves of a sea murmur 
under tides turn over emotions awakening 
Satin white washed surf 

Beholding 
upon the rocks 
Beloved apex 
a sunbeams brilliance 

Wetly kissed 
under a rainbow arch
Throwing light 
of the moon spotlighting 
dancing with the shadows 

Crouching where the sun rests 
Twilight fires burn amber 
within clouds shooting gunbarrel grey

Premium Member Light of the Way

Into the warmth 
of a bleeding heart 
A chain of daisies grow 
Around the soul kiss heartbeats 
The willows silver tears turn gold 
daffodils dance warmly flowering 
On petals of your loving touch gently 
flutters with the butterflies dream 
Leaves  a warm footprint forever softly caring 
bitten in the long grass I stroll alone with hope 
Birds in many airs mix tunes so sweetly with grace 

Picking a dandelion smiling thinking of the roar 
Looking of into distant sunsetting faraway wonder
Golden the sky orange to gunbarrel grew clouds 
Life is loving every minute gifted with purity 
Because feelings of you don't disappear 
Must be a dark shady path at night 
Blind leading the blind trips 
Into chaos check in


Premium Member Beauty Kisses the Beast

Sun golden shining warm upon the back speaks
wind cutting cold chills freezing thoughts held
captivating love standing a vigil faraway dream

Touching warm fingers of light in a deep blue painted sky
bewitching clouds gunbarrel grey shooting magic wishes
silver shading arrow points out into the softest peach charms spells

Everything spellbinding shines amazing beautiful enchanting 
snow covered mountains cold winds howling and whistling tunes
bells in the distance calls you're the rock one clings to on Trawbrega's shores

Drawing behind the eyes wind bellowing whispers a blessing tides turn waves
inside joy burns one candle warmly flickering happiness butterflies dance
blue blazes to see the soul of a deeply treasured jewel forever sings
