Leaps Poems - Poems about Leaps

I need a fix and it is so strange This addiction to poetry is a stain Like a birthmark on my rainbow brain Can't shake it off for it is engrained I hear white word and it leopard leaps Into violet verse singing screaming It is my teal torture it is my purple peace Poetry as affliction is a big part of...

Waves break their rolling heads on faceless cliffs. The wind is lost, it turns this way and that only to crush its own voice. Turmoil is lovely, the howl of chaos clears the mind, sharpens both elation and fear. Standing on the edge of a crumbling land, footholds flying away like storm-wrecked gulls we are ALIVE in the grave of this world....

Out of the ether once came a small child who hoped to one day fly thru the air. Diligently applying herself, learning a style, performing higher leaps, tapping the rare. She performed somersaults, all in her stride, with greater and more intelligent ease. Winning honors and gold medals worldwide, winning hearts with technical expertise She became the world's new daring upstart "sensational, uncanny, never...

Where Leaps Hot Desires In Adoring Breast Here atop this majestic mountain crest, Amidst flying winds that soothe aching soul, Looking at earth, at Nature's very best, Where resides a force man can not control; Man, mortal man his heart too often weeps, For selfish pleasures, treasures not his due, Clear views of darkness, as so oft it creeps, In crashing waves as...

Live love lavish with wisdom well, Apt art arrives to set the stage; Voice can vanish no more to tell, Ink stains derive self-conscious age; Sweet secrets sum what beauty frames, Health holds happy with fancy free.

Fading twilight Birds hurry back As bats glides past On the...

On moonlit bay do herons row With swerving curves their plumes unfurl As white-bleached robes dip into twirls. Forms pose around the ridge, aglow Allowing limbs to flaunt contours While breezes watch near migrant lure. Down shoreline wide, beaks sting a blow To feast on prey before long flight And rest through foams of soft twilight. Mid-air, flock wheels a graceful flow Ascending high on...
