Long Fully fledged Poems

A perfect radiant day of golden complexion infused the Jefferson brothers to travel down the narrow path, a mile from their home to the Ebb Water Creek.
Their goal to hook a line of catfish was...

How am I doing

Well thanking you very much indeed

For being kind enough to ask

Because I am doing just fine

In fact I can't tell a lie i am actually
way far better than that bordering on
great 

Because...

Dear Son,

As you read this letter
I believe you are fully fledged
And perhaps you have already selected
A straight soulmate among your flying flock
I know my absence's had your heart brimming with rage
May your rage wither as...

Night had been short, I still was highly tired
for my bones had been badly maltreated
during exhausting marches. I admired
comrade John who recently had cheated
the Reaper in the north at Stamford Bridge.
I left the troops and...

FOOTSTEPS 

From cradle to grave,
Such is life
Where we follow certain steps,
First refrain
Emitting from mouth,
A somewhat gargled sound
Of ‘Ga- Ga, Mum- Mum or is it Da-Da,’
After which
Came the dummy spitting bit, 
Followed quickly by
Rejection of their...

I wish for an end to come 
A welcome I spoke; untrue now
The progress of time, showing me pain
Saved me than, to severe me again
An arid mind, pleading for lines to flow.

Upon entrance, my improbable...

Woke up and read David Kavanagh's entry to this contest. Then couldn't stop thinking of two line quotes and keep thinking of another every few minutes... I should actually have 1 more hour of sleep...

Dozy Dick and his Magic Stick it comes to life at night
Takes him to a world of joy and pure delight

Transports him to a place he really wants to be
Of inner dreams and pleasure and...

Just nodded yes, when my ego had said no
Lost all consuming forces, simply let go
Met you halfway, instead of skirting the square 
Perhaps sat down, when you brought over a chair

Found quantum entanglement, not just...

I've ne'er beheld such a magnificent tree.
Only you were a ration of my life spree.

Your shadow splatters my scorching flesh.
Striving to restrain agony out of my thresh.

A tree that can bear both heat and downpour.
Hence,...

A shiny morning bathed in golden-gluey rays. 

Somedays are different from everyday. 
The royal couture's army, Of sun's dear palace.

Served down the feast of honour.

As I opened the mouth to greet.

The berries of my mommy's...

pity the alien who loses its way
& has to stop here for a bit
(to do whatever aliens do, if they
lose their way)---
now,
go one step further &
imagine that like a child
who curiously picks up a fly...

The Earth is about as old as the solar system.
I don't know what the fully fledged humans were like
But human conventions I am guessing were not in any way fully formulated 
at the time.
I'd like...

Unknown to me these parallels ran smooth 
Fraternal twins, unlike in face but both 
Against her sister, but dormant in youth.
My Esau stunting Jacob in his growth

Suppressed was Joseph with his coloured coat
A beauty stunted,...

Early morning vapors emulate a lady's veil, 
diaphanous, a softly shifting secrecy; 
as constant as the tide and deathly pale, 
feathering the lake in fragile mystery. 

Minstrels scarce can sing with proper import

When I first flew the nest, my spirits were low; 
how my world has changed from one year ago. 
Now fully fledged, I spread open my wings! 
My voice, once a whisper, now gently sings....
