Wasteland
Like the dead fossils of the once tyrannic dinosaurs laid bare into the diminishing soils of the earth, is what the aging world appears to seem like, the battle for survival pride and honour from the unforgiving climate changes in the vast savanna amongst living creatures to the vast cities, towns, villages etc of we...

In the symphony of love, there is a resonance, where hearts beat in harmony, finely attuned. Two souls entwined, finding completeness together; they dwell by the warm hearth. In their eyes, a promise made evermore, within their palms grasp, a treasured locket. One half holds a memory in this locket, A reminder held near his heart of her resonance, In hers, a ballad...

A Rusty Locket and Muscadine Wine
In the hush of twilight’s gentle embrace, A locket swings, a whisper of grace. Its surface tarnished, like memories confined, Yet within its heart lies love intertwined. Muscadine wine spills dreams on the floor, Sweet as our laughter from days long before. With every sip, I taste summer’s glow,...

locket
You keep my heart locked away around your neck It's value is only worth it to you, so please be gentle Do you wear it as you rest your eyes to sleep Or do you keep me locked away in a box, surrounded by your favourites before me? Do you show it off to others,...

Locket
You gave me a cute lapis lazuli A locket to cherish, love gift from you You know how much I'll treasure it truly This reminder of true passion in blue Will stay around my neck, close to my heart It sparkles bright in it's blazing blue hue There will be times when we may have to part But this is your promise...

Wheres That Smile
Where’s that smile of yours today What do you mean you put it away Do you want to bring everyone down We don’t feel good seeing you frown Do you at least have it close by Before you make all of us cry Perhaps you have it in your pocket Or do we need a key to unlock it I can see...

They divorced in the late sixties I was young, just turning ten and listening To their arguments, their disagreements Revealing words that I knew were injurious They walked away from each other Determined to find… a new way, a new love Someone who would make them forget The love that had been a part of their lives They didn’t tell me too much...

Like the oyster keeping its mouth fastened with pearl, Her locket was calm with pearl of secret, treasured; Link has loosened somewhere? Nerve got numbed? Sudden whirl…? Once psychologically bound has now leisured...? She held it to her heart; right hand clasping it tight, Haven't her life-time dreams and hopes lie bundled in? Horror dreams had woken her sometimes at mid-night, She...

The Broken Locket
THE BROKEN LOCKET He gave it to her when the knot was tied; A silver locket on a silver chain. Within, their tiny photos, side-by-side. Where they would always be through sun and rain. When closed, their lips met in a tender kiss, Away from prying eyes of those around. A secret symbol of their life of bliss, And of their marriage built...

This silver trinket means so much to me An old broken locket from yesterday Caught in a memory of mystery The womanly image on my mind does play. Her countenance is definitely pensive Graceful shoulders and hands arranged just so Beautiful brooch on blouse looks expensive Intuitive feeling what do I know? Father passed away, among his papers Photograph of woman from my locket Love...

A small cameo rests inside a velvet-lined chest Its latch broken, there’s a faded picture inside, A thumbnail-sized sketch of her handsome best Has rested inside it since Great-Grandpa died. Her cameo’s been treasured through the years Passed through generations with loving care, Which once was handled through flowing tears Now is a shrine, revered with a lock of her hair. Once it...

She left nothing but a broken locket, snapped in two, as though it had been stepped on. And as I slipped it into my pocket, I realized that she was truly gone. She kept our pictures in a golden heart, saying we would always be together. But before too long, we drifted apart, encountering rogue waves and rough weather. She left me in...

I espied her regard and deemed her depth. She requested that I "Hold this for me." I dare you, do not let it fall on earth. It's gotten loose to point at agony. The locket to my meek heart was broken. Stomped upon, as such dealt using disdain. Used amiss and bared to prime misspoken. Spoiled, as well...

Iced Love
A breath is stolen from me One I do so regret Your tears were phony And my sanity I must fret A cold lipped embrace Leaves me riddled with shame A malignant chase Always riddled with pain I chase the days of blue Leaving behind my past Putting into words of you Among things that will never last I feel the familiar warmth of he A constant, blazing...

The Golden Locket
The necklace that Sat on the nape Of her neck Was the most Eye-catching thing She ever wore She always Kept it on And though inquired On many occasions Why she did, She never gave A straightforward answer I guessed it was Personal and private To her and wasn’t Ready to share it, But it was what I saw first On her, its subtle Beauty and glamour Which stole your Senses before you Even notice, A golden heart Hung low...
