Blue midnight sky is blanketed with twinkling stars
And once in awhile some stardust falls from heaven afar
Some gold stardust fell when God sent me precious you
His magnificent Son who made a glorious debut
Remarkable entrance into this sin cursed earth
A tiny baby, incarnate God, that Mary did birth
Awe inspiring miracle, when Jesus came down
Someday we'll see Him in His full glory wearing His crown
Something called Poulter's Measure
Couplets where the first line in a couplet is 12 syllables
And the second line in a couplet is 14..Like years ago
a person who raised chickens and had hens that
were layers would sell the eggs for cash or barter..
Sometimes they would give 12 eggs or a dozen then
if the hens were laying good they sometimes would
give 14 instead of the dozen..

Finis'
(Quatrains in couplets)
My pen gets stuck a lot at night
I try and try to make it write
Seems this pen is out of juice tonite
And this muse has no pity of me
I unscrew all its parts to make it work
And scribbled hard as if it were a fork
Then scramble and unscrambled my brain
But heads swollen has been inside a drain
Still my pen refuses again just to write
My poor brains having infamous bug bite
I hate see my beautiful Muse, just slipping
But what can I do if she's bent on leaving.

funny pic enclosed in the notes window
Autumn arrives with colors on a scenic pallet
Hanging like jewels sparkling in the sun that is met
Leaves falling, floating, twirling in the air, to the ground
Piled in layers like blankets, woven to be found
The mixture of cool and warmth from autumn settles on
The land we walk and live, where sweet dreams are made upon
Seasons change, but celebration is there to ensue
After colors fall in their flight, under skies of blue
Paint your mind like landscape, with positive thoughts to be
Take the colors with you as an autumn reverie

Placed 2nd in the premiere Vermillion autumn couplets contest.
September,
remember-
did return
to adjourn
Summertime,
end it's clime-
less sunlight
longer night.
Before long,
the Fall song
will turn leaves
as it weaves
and enthralls
with bright shawls
over trees-
sure to please.
Time to change
rearrange
how we live,
stay active-
as Autumn
will become
our new stage
to engage.
Holidays
provide ways-
Halloween-
soon our scene-
then will bring
Thanksgiving.
Though we'll miss
Summer's bliss,
change will make
needed break
for the joys
Fall employs.
New seasons
grant reasons
to keep life-
full and rife!

At sunrise I sailed on river called youth,
meandering searched for lonely life's truth.
You came on board holding my hands firmly,
in storm we sailed on winds blowing sternly.
At dreamy dawn as sky got sun shine hue,
love weaved in heart spectral tapestry new.
The river will embrace the azure sea,
where the sunset splendor we’ll wait to see.
At journeys end I’ll show my last delight,
you’ll see its tinged allure in gleamed twilight.

If you orginally read this then, you would have seen it was a villanelle, actualy same it was the poem Hope, which I posted before this one. A very silly copy/paste error that was pointed out. Anyway fixed but original was too long now it's two poems. Thanks for reading.
He know returns the clerihewer of the fewer
Throwing his poetry soup idols in the sewer
With these naughty little lines of rhyme
It's MOSTLY in fun time after time
I think this is very long overdue
Of these I have written quite a few
Technically this one is out of form
With the rest I'll get back to the norm
I don't know what happened to our King of the quatrain
He's writing couplets and rhymes, but I won't complain
Just hopefully he doesn't ever do a free verse
Or I may have to break the rules and curse
Speaking of Jack the Quatrain King and cursing
He has an admirer of his poetry that's been rehearsing
I say that because who leaves comments before the coffee's even hot
I have my suspicions that Mr. Spivey is a robot
Once more with our King to what level does he make me stoop
I left a comment for a poem that contained in the title, Betty Boop
But haha my comment was the first to post
Too bad my house still reeks of burnt toast
I have always written alone, but now enterred a contest of group
With a green eyed girl that once wrote a poem about dog poop
I just had a little fun with it, but never asked her why
Because no one else would write about it was her reply
No if you're going to enter a teamwork contest do it with a Star
For surely you'll have a lot more chances to go very far
Of a thousand different jokes I could make
I'm going to leave it at that for my soul's sake
She seems like a sweet Welsh girl, but I think she has some fire inside
I think if she get's mad the best tatic would be to run and hide
Hopefully I won't let my big mouth get me into that situation
I'll let my words do all of my confrontation
I have always included the great PD in these
But I haven't talked to her in a while and couldn't ask her please
I won't take liberty at this time, I will first reflect
Really it's just a statment of respect
The earth is dressed in a white robe - snow graffiti on the wall
Deliciously frozen thoughts melting away into another Kingdom
Our words served in gold of passion and sweetly kiss
Colour shines transparent
As the soft feeling of heated drops
tumble down the cheeks saving grace
The tears will fall on fertile soil, quietly the water decreases
There are no limitations so make your heart strong not weak
Fight your worries and sorrows - taste the love
Reflections kissing warmly each memory stored precious
Tasting salt upon lips
Because dearest lily of the deep lake
When a soul knows the unknown pathway leads upwards
We all have a special place in this world no one else can fill or walk alongside
Listen to the sound of angels playing harps from above
Smell the roses and breathe in the fresh clean air
True love from the heart of a flower never dies,
always giving goosebumps a new meaning

(unrhymed couplets)
Magic dust shooting into starlight pearls as the scents begin wafting
Around the planet's curve circling warmly embracing on vision
Glittering golden gleams sparkle through colours of a promise
Kissed green eyes to hide her warm tears open up
In the promises we give to others for keeps
Rainbows hold until the end enchanting tales
Silk buried softly underneath the bouquet a rose grows
Not forgetting the inner promises we give unto ourselves
Romancing a poem under the pillow no one knows
Petals freezing winter moon holding warmly drunken
Wrapped up under one star winks cotton white angel holding deeply wings
Held upright pleasing the heart pure soul inside the glory of the stars shine
Fear and destruction of earthly paradise we live
Over and back dancing butterflies waltz freely taken
We need beautiful fairy tales and angels songs
As the sun rise kisses a gold circle treasures found
A man can not be changed by place or time, but of love
Memories are born inside where a diamond cut princess dwells
Luxurious and delicious feelings ~
enveloped softly in your wing

~I Love You Jesus~
(Couplets)
Just when I thought, I was alone and so lost,
You came to live inside my heart, and paid for me the greatest cost,
Of all, and since then You never left my side no matter what I have done,
Or what in my life I've chosen to do.In my soul you shine like the sun
You're the most wonderful thing that happened to me.You make me whole,
Without You to guide me I would be now in an empty darkened hole,
Without You by my side, this life would be so worthless and very mean,
Without You, my world would be so cruel and empty and so coldly grim.
I know that there's nobody like Him in the whole world, you see
He touches my heart and my soul, everyday, in every conceivable way,
He's made everything for me so completely brand-new, you see,
His sweet love fills the emptiness of my sinful soul, He sets me free.
His love is the greatest therapeutic healer that every man should know,
And without His Love and Grace there wouldn't be, any love left to show.

Thank you dear God for simple zest;
Thank you dear Lord for choice and quest.
Thank you for play, for easy smiles;
For light of day, for cheery style.
Thank you for jest, for wit that swirls;
For lovely fest, for dance and twirl.
Thank you for words, for lines and rhymes;
For art that's heard, for verse and chimes.
Thank you for voice, for heart that feels;
For faith and poise, for touch that heals.
Thank you for fate, for certain charm;
For healthy plate, for peaceful psalm.
Thank you for friends, for kin and kind;
For happy trends, for peace of mind.
Thank you for joy, for thoughts that spring;
For sense to toy, for sensuous flings.
Thank you dear God for earthly ways;
Thank you dear Lord for ample stay.
