Surfside stand a lady & man
lost in (a moment) on silca lands
so stand this even (handed two)
before a sky limpid blue
with a hearts glow to melt the burning sand.

Love limned laughter, (lines out) sweet promised sign,
satin billows of cloud surround divine,
backdrop sky a blue silk screen
young as fun forever keen
pre-empting fate this faultless time.

Pouring waves and passion combine
light moods, effervescent (platinum fine)
flows a presence vivid and wild, 
flaming love; (destiny's child,)
raptured revolving evolving in time.

Premium Member Bright Beautiful Red

Big ripe Mcintosh apples found lying on the ground
Release sweet juiciness when their finders take a bite.
Ibises of scarlet stand elsewhere in the world without a sound
Gathered underneath a crimson sky awaiting night.
Hovering near bushes bursting ever rosily
Twin monarchs flutter; cardinals sit on a red-flamed tree.

Barns decorate the countryside always painted so
Easily to view in their typical bright red hue.
A patch of strawberries grows in summer row by row by row.
Utter deliciousness resides in raspberries grown there too.
Tempting are the garden's tomatoes, more treats colored red!
Inside an orchard, carrying a pail which holds small fruit
From a cherry tree, treads a freckled lad, hair like fire on his head.
Underneath a canopy of leaves, robin redbreast sings a tribute,
Lifting notes mellifluously in praise of nature’s grace.

Robust as chili peppers' flavor; radiant as a ruby gem,
Everywhere we see the passion in this color we embrace.
Delightful and dynamic too is this color most worthy of a poem!

The Silent Tantric Healer

Not all Healers will charge a fee,
Some will appear to touch your pain points,
Fingers Knowing exactly where to press.

Their own heart is a subscription service, 
That knot in your back spoke so loudly,
Unperceived Tantric Rhythm, that's a yes.

Eyes Beaming with multiple timelines,
Hairs standing on end, Deserving of respect.
Aware in another life, we once met.

Never telling what they'll do,
Not warning you about the effects of the magic, 
It suddenly just beams out of your chest.

Can't stop thinking about it now, 
Nor can be brave enough to subscribe,
Memories standing out from the rest.

Sacred caressing to rip the ego to shreds,
Beauty together pre-empting an entire life shift,
The Silent Healer does it best.

The price is life as we know it,
Goosebumps telling a tale and preparing new,
Though you laid with them, now to yourself you must confess.

Premium Member Sly Fox the Destroyer

Sly fox, you deceiver
Trying to make me a believer
Tempting me
Pre-empting me
Of your bogus lies, I am the receiver

You look so fine in your red fur coat
Batting your eyes, my ego’s stroked
I’ve fallen for your foxy ways
That have ended my innocent days
I’ve fallen prey
My soul’s been slayed
Foxy destroyer, please go away

You’re empowered
I’m devoured
The sly fox has conquered 
Another coward

I am caught in your fox trap
You are captured in my rap
But you like it where you are put
While I try to chew off my foot

Another victim of the fox deceiver
I warn you boys, do not believe her
She’ll coax you into her foxy den
And consume your heart like a fresh farm hen

Lady fox, you are so sly
No match for this country guy
Limping away with a foot chewed off
Sorry for the next guy you caught

Sly fox I leave you behind
But always you’ll be on my mind
One of a kind
Making men blind
No love they’ll find
It’s foxy time

Premium Member Filled

upon my emptiness I am filled 
a gentle spirit soaring about 
my manic mood swings 
I cater to soft scents 
hints of violet clusters covering 
the ongoing greenery of untimeliness 
I capture my melancholy madness gravely 
lost unprepared for thee upcoming storm 
of pure panic my breathing is subtle 
my cries are calm chuckles hidden beyond 
the sudden episode that releases unwanted 
energies my mind needs for sheer survival 
afterwards a coming melody heard far off 
within my emotional state and my positive 
mental attitude somehow arbitrated 
quietly between personalities I fold myself 
into a fetal position and weep so 
empting my wretched soul 
however filled with the holy spirit


Premium Member Souper Brand of Brian Strand

I shoulda seen it comin’ my way - 
The Judgment Day

Bears the brunt of judging as gold 
Rakes piles of entries, old and new 
Insists - "completely up to you"
As long as you do as you're told 
Note, read the blog to make it through 

Submissions, like lava, pour in 
Tempting many soupers to win 
Review as you give it a shot 
Ace of Judges snubs dull and bland 
No to acrostic, rhymed or not 
Dare I disobey Brian Strand

Strand’s contests I deem Brian’s Blast - 
Meaning high praise and no shade cast!

Premium Member Delight

Sun-ripe strawberries oh so sweet
Tempting swollen fruit to eat
Red berries in dish of cool ice-cream
Awesome moment a summer dream
Wonderful taste lingers on tongue
Beloved by all of us old and young
Each afternoon a strawberry wish
Ruby rhapsody in my dish
Remembering when I was very young
Idyllic memories of summer sun
Each lick of my spoon was sheer delight
So much enjoyed each swallow and bite.

Premium Member September Falls

Silent leaves, whooshing in serene showers
Easy to guess forests are born of hope
Pretty hues in gold, rum, toasted flowers
Tempting souls blessed by soft rains who shan’t mope
Endless nights spent with stars, gentle and bright,
Melodies of harvest stirring our hearts,
Bringing life to verses autumn will write
Ever awed by grandeur when the spice starts
Resulting in pumpkins, apples and more
Flavors of golden crispness in the air
Amazing gifts from God that I adore
Lingering inside, a grateful prayer
Laughing ensigns of grace so astounding
Season of still, cool wonders, resounding
