Premium Member The Ides of March
This week is bleak, the birds don’t sing No sun, no rains, but greyness Even the churchbells didn’t ring Have they become atheists The bellman and the bearded dean And all the congregation? In times like this to breathe is sin No promise of salvation Can take away the truth it fakes And like a stubborn stem Grows through the slab, the truth condemns...

In with a Song, Out with a Measure of Silence
This day in early March sings in a gust of wind it brings the season’s change life I’ve known rearranged one day warm the next cold nature’s changing moods to behold when each day when I’m awake nature’s tempestuous moods to partake. Talk of the weather brings smiles and frowns what goes up also goes down and as we face our days of strife the next...

The virtues, sacrificed By muscling vices, Lay dying Across the dusty crusts of Earth. The sky, once admirably azure, Now bleeds dark streams of gray Above the sight of flying vultures Flapping, circling in wait....

The Ides of March
The ides of March sing consideration for widows who must accept that new name. The guides of March bring realization: life, as it was, will never be the same. The tides of March trace recalibration as adjustments to the world we re-frame. I confide this March in my Salvation. Where do skeptics go in grief’s waiting game? The offsides of...

Ides of March
Named for the God of War but trickster is your nature. Each year you bring the prospect of spring. Yet your deceit hides that promise under your cloak of white. I should know better, but you understand how much I need to believe your promises. Beware the Ides of March. Julius did not heed the...

The ides of March are upon us, With spring to follow closely in step. As we begin to welcome St. Patty, And all those Easter eggs lie ready to prep. Seen and heard is the madness of basketball, Collegiate craziness to never end. ...

Premium Member The Ides of March -Edited Just Now
(I posted this and found out one line did not rhyme, so I had to adjust the second limerick) That the Ides of March we should beware is a quote which is not really fair.
