Ivory Letters, Golden Scores: Remembering Scrabble
The worn-out box with letters smooth and cool, A velvet pouch, our linguistic pool. Ivory tiles each bearing worth and weight, A family ritual sealing our wordy fate. The wooden board, a grid of squares defined, Where double letters, treasures we could find. Triple words beckoned, a strategic quest, To build our lexicon and put it to the test. Remember the clatter as...

While powdered flakes gently spill from heaven Like embroidery of gold tassels kissing buds And hawthorns ,the frost twinkles and drifts Into winter’s beautifully formed marquee, tangy the vapor of her skin wafting into nightfall’s’ interlude. Enthralled, I shudder at the rhythm Of her dance : icicles flitting in liquid Crystal taps on silver alleys... a movement glossed...

Ivory flakes falling down from heaven above, Frozen tears of the angels coming to earth to touch Those below with hope and love. Not to bring sadness or suffering, But to be the answers we seek And the promise of fulfilling our hopes and dreams Cascading down from heaven above gently touching each One of us with faith, hope, and...

not quite White Christmas, but that'll do. 'tis the next best thing! celestial confetti comes tumbling down at noon time generously, incessantly; palpable excitement hangs like hope in the firmament one of several children at play extracts her tongue waiting; some did land... and she squeals with joy! ah, ivory flakes... down they come; tiny alabaster feathers fluttering d ...

Revolving season’s ever-changing sensitive frontage dons nature designed apparel in an ambiance new. Fall’s fiery foliage bursts with colored mélange of collage, as the wilted leaves shimmer with the last golden hue. Northern wind’s chilled whistle in the crisp air they hear, as they float in the rhythm of their rustle’s frozen phase, composing the swan song melody of...

Oh, lovely snowflakes, from billowy clouds, plump with expectation, you break free and come tip toeing lightly on tiny feet, gliding and dancing, through the air in crisp December. You travel through ether uncaged and free and drop down littering the earth’s expanse. you keep falling and collapsing one on another, and lie huddled as a white massive heap- sometimes landing thick as round balls sometimes...

You were never the sunset to me, but always the crimson hue veiling the sun; The subtle shyness in the eyes of a maiden wildly in love with the moonlit boy, her prominent lobster red cheeks when she was a blushing mess under his soothing touch. The sly smile lingering around her lips on her...

Snowfall in winter drizzling as ivory flakes. Chilled breeze blowing as if without break. Jack Frost jumping, busy to jog, even crazy in mist and fog. Floating in...

In the mirrors of Moirai kismet and karma kiss adoringly, unaware of this betrayal they label as life. In the hallucination we call birth, words whisper like bitter winds, composing a metaphorical manuscript, weaving a quilt of invisible inflictions. Silent screams serenade in childhood bloodshed, where no messiah arrived to rectify sins of saints - so some languish among abandoned souls. Modern monsters no longer...

elephant tusks harvested for ivory towers truncate the wisdom of time blizzards hail snow flakes weather a storm or two before they melt into memories Babylon refutes Jericho an eye for an eye that money can’t buy Rosetta’s stone gives a clue to incomprehension and sometimes the monolith takes on new meaning when frosty crystals meet eternity in shining armour Midas touches mammon and greed blistering peeling forms scabs on...

Ivory flakes fall down in place Of salted tears on somber face Took all my love and left me ice Wasn’t enough to make me cry You snatched my soul years ago With hot kisses that now are cold Was warm with charm and I miss it Alarms now warn you are narcissistic I made a mistake in trusting you Sadly I say...

I drop into a Dresden dreamworld salvation came and fear fluttered away peace and harmony evoke heaven as a stock still image before my eyes within this sleep I must steady my view foster a need to wake before I dissolve "we wish you peace, we wish you peace" a mirage of motionless faces surround falling from my lips a thousand questions my...

Pearlescent specks were sprinkles in a sky that would have been dark but for the white of those ivory flakes I saw twirling so tranquilly down. Swirls of serenity - those pearls of the night filled me sweetly with delight before bed. When I woke, I looked out my window to see what night had brought. While I had been buried in dreams gone unremembered, dull barren land of...
