expressions

unconscious smiles
for
every dream
in
uprooted shadows
the day

weariness
where we
lock ourselves
hidden
softly
in its virtues

in
a
field
of reflections

playful eyes
to
share
their clarity

Sweet Vagabond Imaginings
“Green-eyed lady passion lady
Dressed in love she lives for life to be” Sugarloaf
Not wise when very young, I traipsed inside
romantic notions where I played the role
of some young, handsome man’s sweetheart or bride.
Real life I did not know; I had the goal
but not the plan for my achieving it!
How aimlessly I wandered in my

The Poetry of Nothings
The Poetry of Nothings
By David J Walker
I
Only I know when I am
Not sleeping,
Lost in dreams of those who
Keep talking
keeping my awake alive
With the revisitation's of visions
of yesterdays and today's
and what they say
will be tomorrows
The only way I know to
make them fade into
the gray
is with the white noise writings of

Welcome To My Universe
welcome to my universe
welcome to my universe
my world
my inner cosmos
the world according to cosmos
it is a dark and fantastical land
filled with dark dangerous delusions
mad monsters
dark imaginings
things that go bump in the night
wild things that come out at night
haunting my dreams
and my nightmares
it is a world for madmen only
dare to enter

Stardust of Imaginings
I drift through the eternities
on the translucent wings of imagination
that form in the mind's body of silence
where I abandon the world
and fall into the flowing stream
that moves through my soul of wonder

Cosmic Jewels
If Keats could have seen through Hubble’s eyes
when the sonnet ‘Bright Star’ he wrote,
meaning its telescope-imaged skies
with those stellar tableaux afloat,
would he have noted ‘aloft it hung’
‘steadfast’ all night in ‘splendor lone’,
that poet who died, alas, too young
yet over time whose fame has grown?
Of course such matters can just be guessed
or mused upon

Imaginings
If your mindset isn't producing the wettest type of wet, you've forgotten how to dream. How to fall asleep in one state and arise in a realm of possibilities you never thought attainable.
No matter how many times you've swung and missed, haven't you hit a home run every time you closed your eyes? The

Night Time Imaginings
“Sleep well my dear there is nothing to fear
what you see in the daylight
is here in the dark night
you just cannot see it so clear”
Waking up in the blackness
in the middle of the night
your bedroom so dark
you think a monster is there
Lurking in the corners
you think you hear him breathing
you think you hear

Filled With Imaginings
When leaves glimmer, I find some way
To dance on tiptoes’ whirled ballet,
Into the prairie, soft the light
As mesmerizing views invite;
Nature’s art weaving hues midair
With fancy blooms dressed, while I share
All wonders of a heart that unfurl,
Such pageant for my inner girl!
In this moment, thrilled eyelids close
Relishing dew, fireflies that pose
On endless trails of humming tones

Barstool Imaginings
Barstool Imaginings
A tingling of ice cube melancholy
dissolving in the swirling bourbon
accompanied the vision that he saw
in the opaque distortion of the mirror.
He dared not turn lest she notice his interest.
She moved soundlessly, floating across
the distance, impressing her presence
upon the air. A sensual scorpion sting
had stunned his sensibilities leaving him
in a state of gaping

Imaginings
When the northern star opens her gauzed veil
On clouds’ ladder, winged pixies arise
Where magic glides like a lucent trail,
A parade I watch with angelic sighs.
Glossy dust bounces on cosmic array
To kindle thrills from a fancy dreamland
As elves gather a rhapsodic play
With choirs stylized by mystical wands.
Jiggling lithe toes beyond stellar frames,
More fays croon in my

Ablaze With Imaginings of the Soul
Mysterious forces gather into the mind
bleeding with excitement ,fragrancing the night.
This is the time of visions sought, dreams refreshed.
Many splendored is this night,the dark flows swiftly.
Find yourself in the arms of imagination and painted glory.
You are the captain of this splendid vessel,onward sail
to anywhere those phantoms of the past can be lost.
Regenerate, rejuvenate,feast on the

Imaginings
I see you in my thoughts and dreams
all my intimate imaginings
of our bodies intertwined
your very soul invading mine
I feel your hands upon my skin
the sweat between us is so thin
I try to shake these dreams away
but you enchant my mind each day
a tempting tryst comes to my dreams
all my private intimate imaginings
of our bodies wrapped
