One Coin, Two Sides
What's true for you even if it is insanity may not be the same for me as we each have our own reality 'There's two sides to every coin' some are said to say 'But what about the edge, when one is on display, showing tails and the obverse?' as a numismatist I insist even a mirror reflects the reverse yet when confronted with a conundrum maybe...

Is my life getting knotty! Which was once simple and fun! Love came like blue ocean-waves, lapping on my heart! When your thoughts aglow in mind, Shine...flicker of a moment, Hundreds of bright sunflowers Blossom in my dream! I utter a gasp...oh no! My heart was never missing, I left it in a safe place, With you, for ever!...

“Out of suffering have emerged the strongest souls; the most massive characters are seared with scars.” - Khalil Gibran I am a delicate deck of cards, alabaster roots, tossed across time’s yard from foolish patterns of poker promises, like the days when scorching summer was an ace of solstices. You’ll find my name in numbers where the perfumed forget-me-nots in pressed pages slumber; defined as the black hearted queen...

"Serene is the green of the sculptured knotty pine, arms uniquely reach and none the same, with woody scent of heaven." Quote by poet Knotty pine enfold in the sate gold sun stands stunning in an arboreal view. Bound by forever changing blend pale blue pure air of homespun charm, unflagging none. Upon the pine needle and...

Knotty
A knotty path, woven in twine With twists and turns like frizzy vine With ups and downs and rugged plains With teary tales and bloody stains Above and below knots of square Are damages one can't repair For they're engraved in hearts of stone And their hellhole reaches the bone But time is kind for...

Knotty
They seek him here They seek him there But he can't be found Anywhere They seek him high They seek him low Someone saw one Long ago A knotty problem A mess to undo Will need an expert To see it through It's hard to find This particular skill Much in demand With costly bill Of what issue Do I speak?...

I cannot just confront the spider web It sticks to my face wherever I go Like the physique-psyche entangling ebb Uncertainty, in each vein, seems to flow Muscle knot happens; so too do vein knots Isn't Kith and Kin link-line a we too? There are knots amidst showy flower pots Doesn't the relationships seem to woe? I...

half smile of caged concealment Mona Lisa like, kindling desire awash in pixelated illusion your dark dreaming eyes preserving secrets the glow of an image, layer by layer my wish to un-knot the shifting shape form with its unknown gravity a stance painfully inscrutable till your voice, dusky, breathy washes over me like smoke reassuring in a kilowatt smile telling me our lives unfinished ...

Premium Member Knotty Totty Rottsy Day
Crone arrived masked as crescent moon. We knew her by her star cape and her attitude. I was wearing a warring pirate ship as a skirt. The day was ripe for all kinds of shenanigans. A trumpeter arrived to announce the next eclipse. It’s one of those knottsy-tottsy-rottsy days. I put on my star gazing hat, and tried to look average. Difficult...

Knotty Ash
Darkness descends and most folk Are slowly wending to their bed But, across there in Knotty Ash Some Locals are stirring instead. The residents of Diddyland, Where the sun always shines, Are pulling on their working gear For night shifts down the mines. The Diddymen of Knotty Ash, That dedicated working band Who supply Jam Butties to Buttie shops across the land. Ecologically efficient, Cosmetically sound, Jam...

A naughty knight, his maiden sought, Had high hopes they might tie the knot. And though they ought, or so he thought, ’Twas all for naught, disaster-fraught, Forgot how tied her nightie knots. She, humored not, said Gute Nacht! ---------- SECOND PLACE WINNER for the "Naughty Yet Innocent" Poetry Contest Sponsored by Mohan Chutani Written on 03/01/2022 ...

Heart Matters
An heart is a handy thing to have except when its not - Hands are of course handy as a glove Except for ties that knot. (c)Deo, Fort Beaufort, near Newtown "mixed-race" (In RSA English, "Coloured") Township. May 13th, 2021...
