Field of Dreams
(World War One Poem)

Field Of Dreams

The World has stated our freedom,
the worms shall share a soldier's fear.

then I would chase her around

  dreaming of nights of dragons and forts becoming the warlord of his blankets

Premium Member So Tell Me If
I left my naivety back in the hood
to explore the empathy in my heart.
And deep in my soul I feel that I’m good

everyone sees 'something'
as wrong in news reports

some density of an ongoing
propaganda that supposedly

Premium Member A Meal In Five Senses
Within an overplay of paneled oak
and illumination fittingly low,
set upon a table, its style baroque
a lighted candle, its shimmering glow
plays an unopened bottle of Bordeaux

Distant soft murmurs of discrete lovers

Like when bagpipes sing 
from far away

come alive with hope and faith
and restores my...
