Imagining Poems

Premium MemberImagining - Hexaline

In the hairdresser's chair,
Seeing stunning blond hair,
Just caught my eye right there.
Imagining her face.
Did it have poise and grace?
Its a bloke, thoughts erase!

Premium MemberImagining Love

It's the imagination her inspiration inspires,
As you feel the luminance of the sun's healing power ,

Her neurology attracts a frequency match ,
She shares a lifetime of beauty meant to attach ,
Tears , soulful joy & everything rare ,

She taught me to love with kindness & care ,
A lifetime I treasure beyond one can measure ,
Through

After The Rain, Waiting For The Rainbow

After The Rain
Waiting For The Rainbow
 
After the rain there are gray clouds,
Floating around in the blue sky,
 
Alone in the country and thinking of you,
Wishing you were here in my world,
Mend my heartache and ease the pain,

After the rain there are those clouds,
Hovering around in the gray sky,
Casting shadows and sending me doubts

Will you

*** IMAGINING (a Devotion Series Poem) ***

My beloved, do you see my eyes
Approaching near to sweet tears 
Whenever your intimate touch 
Comes — as you brush my hair 
    or reassuringly pat me twice —
Before 
    proceding with the tasks at hand,
Leaving me to sit

Premium MemberImagining Cosmos Communication

in the cosmos, communication is constantly zipping and zinging
on fiber optic wavelengths only evolved aliens can decipher and see
imagine them as firefly rhinestones in lavender, coral and turquoise.

Premium MemberImagining the Worst

the storm is not letting up
it might be getting worse
I walk toward the lighthouse
bringing daddy’s lunch

have sailors been missing?
what kind of night did he have?
I look out into the sea
imagining the worst

Haunted Heart

It’s in the head
The voices no one heard
The screams and yelling of millions nerd
Dragging bodies soak in blood on the ground 
The disgust only my heart could feel in dread 

Illusionary images on wall like pictures in frame
Voices echoing from inside and outside
It is absorbing yet intense
Broken veins loosing blood to parasite

Dead humans lying in

Imagining Your Kiss

Heated only by stars—
Another night without you.  
It bites out my very veins,
This shudder from some animal
That made its house-home in my soul
Now since you’re gone.

I won’t play too hard with my dark side,
Though they say now I must.
I’m remembering you instead—our dreams in stardust,
In the light or night of day.

Are you getting the

hanging tenuously from tree branch the ripe object of temptation

sunlight peeks through the hill trees signaling arrival of a new day

more a curse than a blessing, less a decision than affirmation

worn leather valise undergoes the rigors of final journey

faded granite marker put in position two hundred years ago

no matter how tight we cling to existence,

Premium MemberImagining the Colors

Yellow, orange and pink were the modern colors of the late sixties.
Stripes were being worn with flowers, and paisleys were big.
Artists were daring new things never dared before in recorded history.
Helping to lead our flexible mindset into the roaring seventies.
Fashion shook the nation almost as much as the Viet Nam war.
Laugh-in rivaled Heehaw’s monopoly on

Imagining Dragons

For fun we played a mind-game,
deciding to imagine a perfect dragon.

She put together a plump pink dragon
that blew rainbow bubbles
and smelled of minty chewing gum.

Mine was an iridescent cockatrice,
a spiny feathered serpent that vomited hydrogen Sulfide
coating all with the stench of rotting eggs.

“Ugh!” She cried!

Then I added
that already her dragon had been eaten by killer

Premium MemberImagining a Happy New Year

I was a child of the 60’s— I marched for peace and love…if I recall
which is why I have a Pablo Stanley poster with his interpretation of my favorite song, Imagine, hanging on my wall…

John Lennon released Imagine on September 9th, 1971…and every January I like to revisit it…as a new year has begun.

As one

Only in Dreams
The star of one's heart seen in dreams,
is the star of sleeps silver screen.Quote - Poets own
Imaginary love Daphne awaits
Smiling even though her lonesome heart aches
She lives in an unreal dreamlike world
In dreams her hopes start to become unfurled.

Peering through hazy mist someone appears
Daphne is reduced to shed joyous tears
Her dreamboat is a

Premium MemberImagining Only What I Remember

Reality leaves a lot to the imagination        John Lennon

IMAGINING ONLY WHAT I REMEMBER

abrupt
the falling
cord’s tight and coiled serpent hiss
reality reverberates into space
imagination
makes haste
fetal position
tethered to a voice uttering no relief
potentiality death

a bright room
the cheerfulness of white walls and too white gown
and death
cheerfulness you say
It keeps our feet from

Premium MemberImagining Being Stars

Some say that when we die,
our souls soar up and touch the sky,
And even those with songs unsung
across the universe will be flung.

Perhaps to far-off galaxies
or places that no earthling sees.
Can you imagine places that
no one has even heard of yet?

The energy or spark we call the soul
will not end up – I’m sure –
