Long Enwrapping Poems

Your warm enwrapping hugs, your frequent gifts of grace,
Before your brilliant mind, which used to dazzle bright,
Gave way to Alzheimer’s dark unrelenting blight.

to strangely dance.  
Slipping down into the water as deeply as she  can, 
she revels in the liquid warmth enwrapping her.  
Such contrast this...

Floating in the flash flood 
of divesting dissonance pervasive,

has reached very early the life’s terminal,

did you know 
in the fog, the secrets 
coil in each reaching tendril
floating in the ephemeral pause, caressing me
knowledge enveloped within
peaceful contemplation
quiet word-games of hidden wisdom
"Where did you leave your game?" The Great One chuckles
and...

Poetry for me is all consuming, encompassing pain from tears I have shed
Only Poetry Soup lifts my spirit up high; I write poems from inside my head
Early each morn or late in the night, a...

I built a nubile nest for them so we could live together 
kept it warm in the long winter time of frost and freeze

From the falling edge of the ebony night sky,
as the surmounting shroud of despair darts,
the promise of the full moon I’ve made to you,
I’ll keep before the enwrapping eclipse starts.

As the cloud clumps clear at...

The dust on the lonely path
Blown by the wasteland wind
Meanders listlessly towards
The shimmering buoyant sea
The sapphire waves roll endlessly
On the golden beach outstretched
Adorning the supine sands
With the pristine pearls of love.

Silver moonbeam lattice makes
Dreams for...

It started with one utterance 
that grew into a shout.
That cry grew louder in his ear.
He could not get it out.

and then one cry was two.
His frightened eyes searched faces on
the teeming...

as sun slides down in the sky.
The shadows increase in length,
a dark waterfall descending 
upon the sandy beach.
Slowly I inhale and exhale,

My eyes devour 
swirls of...

The evening dainty drizzle
Dances with twilight tinge
Descends in tumbling torrent 
Through the opaque night
Enwrapping enshrined
The squashed sordid sky
Waiting to unfurl wide in vain

Under dawning sun to paint
Ruptured rainbow charm.

The juvenile sparkling smile
Innate...

In the deepest 
Darkest hour
In the tranquil of the  night
When all lights stopped to beam
I had a dream
You my love came to me
A wish I'd cherished
For long,oh ! So long


You infiltrated my sleep
To be...

around her shoulders prettily,
a woman sits in a silk gown.
Alone is she beside the sea.

Deep longing in her starts to stir.
She sits, arms round bent knees as she
recalls his...
