Visitors I saw in my garden today were:

9 starlings noisily squabbling
1 duck casually waddling.

1 robin - a handsome little chap
1 bumble bee, that landed on my lap.

2 neighbouring cats, stalking the same prey
1 little mouse, who wears a coat of grey.

3 worms wiggle above the earth I dug  
1 fat, juicy, giant, orange, slimy, greedy slug.

5 spiders spinning their intricate webs
1 fly cocooned, in delicate white threads.

3 frogs sitting by the garden pond
2 doves flirting, cooing as they bond.

8 skater bugs, danced the waters top
1 blue dragonfly, hovering near a flower pot.

2 brown butterflies resting on my fence
3 foaming snails, their second line defence.
 
1 pushy wasp, that wanted my half eaten bun
3 baby rabbits playing in the evening sun.

1 majestic blue peacock, from the neighbours farm
1 owl swooped in from the farmers barn.

2 swallows aerobatics, as they build their family nest
4 tiny bats skilled navigation, at it's very best.

Tomorrow will bring more visitors, some different and the same
The honour was all mine, for it was my garden to which they came.

Premium Member Tv Dinner

TV DINNER

Take One. 

He wears a stunning blue suit.
His burgundy, tall and handsome.
He wanes, as his candle waxes.

Her hair’s like an Irish flame,
highlighting colors off her florid dress.
Her fluted drink like a ruby jewel.

An arrangement of flowers,
in the dining room,
pale green, white and red roses.

All colors, in setting, blend
with an artistic flair. Two tables set -

one intimate with blue suit and florid dress.
the other, more demure, sits four.

A customer, with medium-brown complexion,
wears a sangria-red shirt, his face
angled toward his table guest. We see

the back of a woman’s mustard-yellow shirt
complimenting our lady’s lavender and florid dress.

Of course, conversation flickers between the protagonists,
comedical in turn. Not the ordinary romance, only
their colorful personalities on display, for better or worse.

Cut. It’s a wrap.

And now when a 

pretty girl smiles
in her summer clothes 
that invite the summer sun in

On some sunny August afternoons 
Walk In the Park  

I think of all the hair
under my ball cap
	sticking out everywhere

all of it gray 
	none of it dark

and the Distortion setting in
on this Aging face with 

the traces of what’s left of youth 
when I was
		handsome 
and had some grace

Now trying my best to suck my 
Gut in 
But to no avail

remembering when
I could Simple 
smile back 

Without the Fear 
of a heart attack

And now when a pretty girl smiles
I Grudgingly surmise

Actually, I realize 
That I must have  reminded her 
of her 
grandfather

#JWME

Joyous, generous, kindhearted, marvelous, musically talented, and handsome with self-esteem issues - placing my feet in other people's shoes to experience and feel their hues of blues 

Wonderful, crazy cool, chaotically peaceful, mellowly untamed, lost, but found...God's chosen child to fulfill His word somehow...someday, prosperity, fame, and fortune will surround me...success at my finger tips, getting my man grips as I mend friendships with God's advice, corrections and tips in mind...letting time unwind, wishing that my daydreaming come true by actions and interactions 

Essence of faith fibers...good and bad traits shape my inner and outer being...meeting new zealous horizons that embrace change, which is a challenging chore and oh so much more 
Awesome good apple of the bunch and God's mild, wild child...a poet and lyricist that had his verses erased online or misplaced in who-knows-where 
Rapt up in rue, yet a light to this world of woe...my mission is to fulfill God's Word - His tranquil truth is not sugarcoated by deceptive lies
Not afraid to speak my mind through verses and lyrics
Introvert and extrovert...shy in person at first, then I open up confidently and jabber on and on 24/7...I do listen to others' point of view, but I have a lot to say about a lot of things that has to do with writing, singing, music, etc. - anything goes as long as I go my own flow and His flow, not anyone else's flows that are in unison in rows to and fro...I make friends and foes, but I love all - fat or skinny, small or tall 
Nostalgic nights and delightful days inspire me to engage in writing and singing day in and day out without a smear of doubt...no sleep placed in eyelids tonight, so I'm fighting the mighty fight 
Gracious and glorious...kinda lazy, yet so busy all the time in all aspects of life - bipolar is the condition I have...and an indecisive, yet creative-logical Gemini 
So picky, yet forgiving and eccentric elegantly...a handsome soul that's full of humility and modesty in all honesty...I have a young heart that is of bliss, XO and art

Premium Member Quartet of Vertical Visual Verse

CRATER a vvv
       fragile     and
      volatile     lie
suppressed     emotions
       denied     'neath
            the     volcano 
              of     frustration 

CANYAN  a vvv
           high     wide
            and     handsome
            the      chasm
             of       emptiness
           that      fills
    viduaged      hearts
ETERNAL PAUSE a vvv
     soft      spoken
  voiced      musings
    freed      verse
  lingers      in
      the       ear
dwelling      for
          a      moment

VIDUAGE
      beauty     youth
yesterdays     dreams
        todays     remains
      dressed     in
       widows     weeds

*NOTE a VVV (visual vertical verse) is a proverbial style shape poem inspired by A R Ammons 'Cleavage and Chasm ' poetry to which I have now applied this new convenient label and an integral title.

Premium Member Never Really Been

================================

You've never really been a part,
you feel, of this rare tribe you've met.
Kept separate from them from the start,
you fear they won't accept you yet.

But now, re-called to places where
you've never really been, a part
of you in all the faces there
will chase disquiet from your heart.

Like you, they're handsome, fair and smart,
the others in this group of which
you've never really been a part -
perhaps you'll find a common niche.

Though introductions can be stiff,
you were begot, the lot, by Art
and all may soon find it's as if
you've never really been apart.

================================


Poet's Note: My 4 siblings and I recently learned 
that we have a half brother, sired 34 years ago 
by my father, Arthur and this poem was written 
to welcome him into his extended family.

Premium Member The Kiss of Death

The kiss of Death is sure to be enticing
Filling up confused humans
With powerful orgasms
As to cause them
A change of existence!

For that kiss have I been waiting for
Dreaming and fantasising about it
As would a princess totally
In love with its charms,
Wanting to feel the comfort
Of the freedom that lie
Between its arms,
As if,
It were the prince capable
Of saving me from my own shadows!

Death, made to look ugly
And gruesome,
Reveals himself as a handsome
Young man with unruly hair
And shiny eyes
Easily seducing me
With his charismatic smile
And the depth of his longing for me!

Contrarily to humans, shall he say to me
I'll fight for you
I'll grope you and pull you
Closer and closer to me
In a tight bond of amorous submission
As
You belong to me!

Then he'll drown me with his kiss
And I'll succumb to him
Through a rebirth in another
Unwanted existence on Earth,
Yearning for when my soul
Would, once more,
Feel the orgasmic euphoria
Of being lost in his essence!

Premium Member Scarlett O'Hara and Rhett Butler

Scarlet O'Hara,
Arrogant misunderstood belle and beauty, from the plantation Tara
caught up in war, love for Rhett, and her OWN survival and money,
she made a dress from green velvet drapes, fiddle-dee-dee, honey.


Rhett Butler
a handsome rogue, a charmer, a gambler of many a dollar, 
with knowledge of women, EXCEPT Scarlet, is that WHY he was enthralled,
his final words to Scarlet, I don't give a damn, as his name she called.

Premium Member Orient Express: Collaboration Poem By Jadazzle Jan Allison and Darren Watson

We hear the engine whistle 
The hissing of the steam 
The hairs on our necks begin to bristle 
As we meet the arrival of a dream 
We didn't think we had a chance of winning 
Entering just for fun I guess 
but thanks to simple poem we are grinning 
As we board the Orient express.
 
London to Paris, what a dream come true
I never dreamed the sparks would fly between us two
The fireman stokes the boiler; and releases a jet of steam
The guard collects our tickets and we begin our dream
Days and nights together on this magnificent train
Travel through beautiful places, seeing new terrain
Enthralled at the elegance and beauty of the carriage
Will our trip together end up with our marriage
 
Looking so handsome in your new dinner jacket
Glad you won this holiday; it must have cost a packet
The ambiance of the surroundings is utter bliss
We seal our relationship with a tender kiss
Holding hands so gently we share a vintage wine
Sitting in the Pullman coach you rest your head on mine
Velvet blue sky and shining stars start to cast their spell 
The romantic seine has such stories to tell.

In Paris we visit the galleries of fine art
Holding your hand I realise you have captured my heart
We pass through the Arc De Triomphe and climb the Eiffel Tower 
Now I surrender to your feminine power
Retire with me to the Napoleon suite 
Sharing in the splendour of this romantic treat
Promise to be my Mam'selle Josephine 
Or expose my heart to Madame Guillotine  

You look so beautiful and smell divine 
I kiss your lips, They taste of fine wine
We are lost in the flames of passions fire 
As we quench the thirst of true loves desire
Our bodies rise and fall as we entwine
Oh I’m so glad that you are mine
All those feelings denied and for so long suppressed 
Come to the fore aboard the Orient express.

Passion abates we are wrapped in each others arms
Darren wants more so I succumb to his great charms
Our fire ignites with desire and great passion
Hour upon hour – this man I can’t ration
Finally we reach the end of the line
Our love making session has been so divine
Arm in arm we head out of the carriage door
So hopelessly in love – who could ask for more

Premium Member My Love She'D Lent

~ MY LOVE SHE'D LENT ~

I followed her where'er she went
Lured onward by her fragrant scent

She clasped his hand, a handsome gent
How could she know my love she'd lent

I died one thousand deaths inside
Choked back my tears with wounded pride

How long such anguish could I bear
My heart asunder to let tear

The hour had come to make my move
My love for her I had to prove

Unsteady I, and quite unsure
Just how to break the news to her --

My tongue was still despite I tried
'To ask her this: 'Please be my bride.'
