Long Mellifluously Poems

Hark and listen well, if those foretoken in the eyes of hungers lust
Trapped in their illusion, trampling the Stars into dust
Forced with the detestation stench by the swamp of absolute disgust
Thou blackest scorpion be accursed,...

So, what is the best theme for
a poem?  No guarded secret, all themes --

destination or direction? Wherever the poet, 
himself, deems worthy of fond or...

i wander these winter beaches 
where autumn's storms
have removed the footfalls of summer
believing in spring

here i am alone listening
to the waves mellifluously remind
yet never recalling
floating the river Lethe
alone where the frigates soar above
pelicans traversing the...

Melodious tides serenade along a foam dipped coast line,
we drift as a single composed symphony,
seduced by a pounding surf, its sensuous rhythm pulsates
flooding our hearts, aching to collide 
in the tempo of a lone torrent’s...

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...

Deep violet Hibiscus with velvety petals, 
On the quaint fence, sprawl the zestful creepers.
Mesmerizing tall branches of serene evergreen, 
With tricksy Swallowtails, Redbreast Robin merrily whistling.

Ebullient songs of chirping Hummingbirds,
Little bushy squirrel excitedly searching for nuts, 
Large leaves...

You mellifluously
Strums cords across the harp
And manipulate
The tender strings which lie across my tender heart

The melodies that you play
Initiate a graceful, but deviant dance
As the notes of ecstasy entwine in song
Within passion's lust, onto a...

Actual aptitude and action almost always align aright.

Beautiful bliss, beastly belligerent behaviors: both burn bright.

Caringly convinced, cantankerous curmudgeons collapse, contrite.

Disdaining darkness, devoted disciples dig deep, discover delight.

Erudite, eager efforts encourage, energize, even excite.

For faithful few,...

And sometimes, in the misty theme, comes the downing of tools
When the twilight rain drizzles in its bereavement,
As a curtain falling on the last encore of a play,
And all that remains to dwell upon is...

Lithesome fingers trailed along 
the ukulele’s  frets
as Lilah played her dulcet lullabies.
Swaddled in a blanket, smiling,
lay her little lad,
looking up at her with large blue eyes.

Lilah lilted, “Sleep, my son,
for tranquil dreams await.
Lull-lull-lullabies for...

Verily,here,is awaited fate.
I,artificer of that which immures me,
am befuddled by such hands that abate
and augment 'mid its trice mellifluously.

There is no such animal as time
thrashing at one's mind
with its keen ungual;
ravishing ponder to despondent wonder.

(I don't see a Rondel form category so I am using "rhyme")

My poem is just a happy carousel
that merely wants to take you round and round.
It has no wish to preach or be profound.
So choose...

What rose does not more beautiful appear
after your eyes have gazed on it so long?
The lark I now mellifluously hear
because you drew attention to its song.
The crisp aroma of dawn's petrichor
becomes acute as we walk...

Nature with your arms stretched around ,
You cradle those who once cared for you ,
Love and affection your land abounds ,
You sing mellifluously on an unreal view .

At night when silence falls lovers creep ,
