Premium Member Night

The large room is almost dark now
Moonlight the one light source
I sit here next to the window
Which the wind shakes with force  

A light throw tossed across my back
Waiting, waiting until
The lady of the house comes in
Her smile lifts the chill

She walks across the large dark room
Gently touches my arm
Then sits and turns on the small lamp
She snuggles in with charm

Here in my luxurios lap
Picks up her book and reads
The night no longer is cold ~ bare
My queen fills all my needs

Entangled arm and arm together
The warm throw encases
How she enjoys my warm leather
It heightens all her senses

Finis'
Can you now guess what I am?

Premium Member By the Stream Beside the Meadow

On a grassy bank beside a trickling stream
I view her ebony locks of which I've dreamed

Naked she is bathing in translucent crystal clear
As I long for her shapes to shadow me near

This short distance between us in natures surround
For soon we will be in clinch on her sacred ground

Whilst all around there are sounds of wildlife lush
It leaves you in marvel as it quietens to a hush

I turn my head in this most dreamy of place
As I capture her beauty that nature has graced

The cooling waters from the pure running stream
Cascades down her body this fluid supreme

Her ebony locks down her body caress
Naked to bare we have no need to undress

On a blanket of tartan we kneel down as I dry
My love, my lady as we look into our eyes

Shaped undulations awaken thoughts in my mind
As I lightly touch my dreams start to unwind

Our adventurous hands now in wandering roam
Amidst the greens and colours in this harvest home

Beneath the blue, two torsos in mix
Feelings of desire have us joined in transfix

Pleasurable movements like soft rolling waves
Cresting in the breeze as we internally crave

Our love heightens in joyous serenade
By the stream beside the meadow, our love displayed

Ode to Loud Snores

When he sleeps, he snores so loud
It's like hearing a train plough through the crowd
The lilting cadence of his loud snores
Makes me squirm and heightens my nightmares
You might think I should be used to it by now
At times, it's not jarring, but soft like falling dew
His mellow snores stay with me through the night
Don't you think he sounds hot? 
His sonorous snores wake me sometimes mid-sleep
Give me gorgeous gigantic earbuds or dose me with dope
But without his soothing snores by my side
I'm unable to rest peacefully indeed
I think his thunderous snores act like a melodious lullaby
Look, my eyes are drooping! ~ Can't you see us matched evenly?

Premium Member Nighttime Monster

Nighttime Monster


The monster within me raises its head—
     its power consumes me nighttime in bed.
It stirs up my mind with poison of dread
     and robs me of peace, conflicts me instead.

The monster within me sums up my day—
     to show outcomes in a negative way.
The pluses forgotten, soon shoved away,
     replaced by the angst that enters the fray.

In day, I respect my glass as half-full,
     but nighttime reverses and tries to pull
the good things away and what's meaningful,
     to show glass half-empty—so pitiful.

The monster within me makes me aware
     of things not accomplished, heightens despair,
and robs me of sleep while I coldly stare
     with eyes open wide; no rest to repair.

Sometime in the night, my monster lets go,
     as soothing slumber begins its sweet flow,
to wake in the morning able to know
     no monster now, just the new day's bright glow.

My negative monster wakes when I'm tired—
     no strength to fight back like when I am wired.
Please—hope for my new day—keep me inspired!
     Deflect counter thoughts my monster has fired!

Premium Member The Pixie Ghosts

Verd meadow yon shadowed sequoias,
Patterns has lent the scope neath the petals,
Pixies wake on the tips of true choices,

Heightens an ochered sun amidst voices,
Looms about a faint trace of pink mettles,
Verd meadow yon shadowed sequoias,

Tattered remnants of coral sprays joyous,
Whilst they'd be assets in blossom vessels,
Pixies wake on the tips of true choices,

Grooves a pass graced with nectarous noises,
Virtuous domain sprung through laced specials,
Verd meadow yon shadowed sequoias,

Noble claims dotes a wishing well deploys,
Nigh, not far they'd be for all our revels,
Pixies wake on the tips of true choices,

Submit the crush much, us the true toilers,
Sparkled dusk fades long lives of their fettles,
Verd meadow yon shadowed sequoias,
Pixies wake on the tips of true choices.

Premium Member The Gift of Soul

We speak of them together- 'heart and soul,'
   but hearts are flesh- they beat inside of us.
      Emotions grow through love's euphoria
when mind and heart unite in happiness.

But soul- distinct from heart, resides unseen,
   and speaks to us upon a higher plane.
      An aura that enfolds us sacredly-
that holy zone that God instilled in us.

That part of Him that lets us comprehend
   this wondrous nature that surrounds us all;
      the relished splendors of our human life-
the grace that heightens us beyond ourselves.

Compassion, sorrow, and unselfishness;
   a need to share and even yield one's life;
      these cannot be without our gifted souls-
deep-seated in our psyche from the start.

Most humans feel the presence of a God-
   it comes from deep within in many forms.
      Induced or not, we feel that mystic glow-
perceive we are unique on this old earth.

So all-embracing is our sense of God-
   as known from sacred writings long ago;
      made in His image, we are blessed with soul-
a spark from this great glory- is our gift.

Poetic Fasting

As attention is released from food 
it heightens magnetic mood
lucidity descends kinetic 
discernment ascends aesthetic 
ideas caught, nothing goes naught

Body cleared from excess toxin
channels widen spilling more options
downward floods idyllic inspiration 
upward goes my motivation 
observation sharp for superior creation

Food for body is not food for spirit
fasting increases angelic visits 
feeding mind so cordial with verses divine
such a clean sacrifice makes 
my stanzas exquisitely explicit 

Time spent preparing meals
godlike used for lyrical poetic reels
layers we spiritually allegorically peel
seals ink with rhymes and rhythms
ecstatic rhapsodic colourful prisms !

Premium Member the ones i cherish most deeply

when i see that certain smile
it heightens moments
i feel more than approval
it is that playful adoration
that tells me
the heavens are at peace
no star out of alignment
flocks of wings in synchronicity
ocean breezes freely dancing in palms
pelicans gliding above waves
children raised hands down the slide
all the galaxies are accounted for
no nail missing in the structure
a building anticipation as the roller coaster
reaches its peak in the climb
the taste of cotton candy
already upon my tongue
in the fervent hope
that the smile is a promise
of the kiss to follow
the roller coaster now earthbound 
the ones i cherish most deeply
approval in a moment
of playful adoration
it is when i wear a simper
you do that to me
shy and wanting to pull on pigtails

Premium Member Mountaintop Lake

My dreary life shunned, a chance to escape;
atop glacial peak, glorious vision.
Oasis amongst the frigid landscape;
found sanctuary, almost Elysian.

Colorful fish dart, despite intrusion,
in clear blue water of idyllic lake.
Grand oaks' enclosure heightens seclusion,
if this be a dream, no wish to awake.

Surmount gnarly trunk, in bosom I nest,
relax for a spell, savour treetop view.
Ponder existence, I truly am blessed;
alas, paradise, soon time to eschew.

'fore starting descent, 'fore limbs are unfurled,
shut eyes and breathe deep, absorb nature's sounds.
This close to Heaven, at top of the world,
touch of Creator supremely resounds.
