She gathered the fractured
constellation of yesterday,
delicate and incandescent.
Each reminiscence pulsed
with a nacreous glow,
perched at the rim of her
awesomeness.
Sentimentality drifted
through her in gossamer
filaments, slow and weightless.
She followed the topography of
conversations that had evaporated
into quiet.
There were chronologies
inscribed in shared glances
and midnight confessions.
She refused to lacerate
what remained. She refused
to calcify the sorrow.
Instead She cradled the
poignant tableau with a
solemnity almost liturgical.
The frqgrance of vows
unkept hovered, elusive, like
vapor over still surfaces.
Every vault of her recollection
housed relics of an intertwined
existence.
Moments preserved in resin,
dialogues that reverberated,
seconds caught in amber light.
With an exhalation both
compassionate and irrevocable,
she stood from the place of
remembering.
She approached the boundary
where what-was and what is- hesitated
to converge.
She placed the remembrance down-
not discarded, not desecrated, only
unburdened.
An intentional abdication,
fluid as tides retreating from
shore.
No obliteration, merely the quiet
consent to stop shouldering its
gravity.
The ache did not dissolve. It
transmuted, became diaphranous.
It receded into the vaulted chambers
of chronology, a mural behind crystal.
She could still perceive it, radiant and
unhurried, without being tethered to it.
The yearning persisted, yet it no longer
orchestrated the rhythm of her gait.
Mourning had mellowed, like twillight
acquiescing to the arrival of darkness.
Beyond the world
proceeded in its sumptuous,
unremarkable cadence.
Breezes moved through
branches with a languid,
impartial benevolence.
She advanced and the atmosphere
did not implode in the wake of her
leaving.
There was expanse now- immense,
incandescent, and tremulously possible.
The recollection remained behind, archived
with care in the gallery of what she had
cherished.
And she continued onward,
bearing not the encumbrance,
the benison.
A serenity born from
allowing history to reside
where it belongs.
Feed journey quest with profound cheer,
Ask love to seed a poignant rhyme;
Sense knows fond fest with zest right here,
Heed that deep need in space and time;
Instruct pure wit as humour styles,
Observe calm grace as stillness grips;
Now let faith fit bold hope worthwhile.
Work words that trace a vivid trip,
Outline fond ways to anchor peace;
Riches find form in motifs grand,
Dream well each day in succinct ease.
Wise worth sculpts norm in wealthy blends,
Intuit clear truth with love's blessing,
True peace funds proof in wise living.

Deeper than deep that poignant feel,
Intent to see the blessing here;
Ask peace to heap a lasting thrill,
Be what may be a hidden cheer;
Explore the fest in fond embrace,
Touch helps you face that hurting pain;
Expect the best to greet fine grace,
Sense a clear trace of healing gain.
Mind and heart know a better way,
Endow grand wit with rhymes that spring;
Love frames the show that joy prompts play,
Live well each bit as troubles fling;
Indulge each tear that pains your heart,
Take things that come with calmness still;
Urge hope to cheer all wounded parts,
Stand with sure sums and live goodwill.

The poem "Love of Pink and Blue" tells a tragic tale of two lovers, Romeo and Juliet, whose love was doomed by the feud between their families. The use of pink and blue as symbols of their love adds a unique and poignant touch to the poem.
The first stanza sets the scene and introduces the central metaphor of the poem: the love between Romeo and Juliet is like a bloom of pink and blue. The colors are described as bright and true, which implies a sense of authenticity and sincerity in their love.
The second stanza begins to introduce the conflict that threatens their love. The pink of Juliet's blushing cheeks and the blue of Romeo's passionate eyes symbolize the purity and intensity of their love. However, their families' feud serves as a barrier to their relationship, emphasizing the external forces that prevent them from being together.
The third stanza introduces the clandestine nature of their love. They meet in secret under the moonlight, and swear their love to each other, which creates a sense of intimacy and sincerity. However, their colors are described as clashing, which hints at the inevitable conflict that will arise from their relationship.
The fourth stanza describes the tragic end of their love. The families' wrath is too great to overcome, and the lure of their colors ultimately seals their fate. The use of the word "lure" is significant, as it implies that their love was irresistible, but ultimately destructive.
The final stanza emphasizes the tragedy of their love. Their hearts, represented by the colors pink and blue, are broken by the end of their relationship. The use of the word "fate" implies a sense of inevitability, and the poem ends on a mournful note.
Overall, "Love of Pink and Blue" is a beautifully crafted poem that uses colors as a powerful metaphor to convey the tragedy of forbidden love. The language is evocative and the imagery is vivid, which makes for a memorable and emotionally resonant reading experience.
Some say children should be seen not heard
But out of the mouth of babes poignant words
Kids are often innocent observers who play
Never really know just what they’ll say
Tact they haven’t mastered yet
They don’t mean to make you upset
They ask questions and state their view
Sometimes they bring forth a teal truth
Kids who witness trauma are always affected
Laws in society should help them be protected
So many foster kids need a forever home
Resources for them are needed it’s known
But the people who are supposedly pro life
Don’t often adopt or foster or even try
To make these kids feel loved not alone
It’s not their fault they have been wronged
Kids are little people with ideas and dreams
As they grow it’s important we meet kids needs
Lost verses here
Choke a brief cheer
Here as I sit
Watch iPad wit
Lines in verse strokes
Mix myriad pokes
Here for a while
Watch wind blown smiles
Words in brief dress
Hook thoughts from mess
Here in a daze
Words ponder maze
Ideas now breeze
Provoke to squeeze
Here by the gap
Wait on word map
Rhymes in stray chimes
Stretch juice in time
Here flash most brief
Prompt poignant grief
A stray intent
Brings odd content
Here words now trip
As fancy grips
Lost verses float
Away to gloat
Here I find me
Lost yet happy
Lost verses fit
Such hollow wit

Aura of joy in radiant blooms,
Beauty now plays with buzz of light,
There is no ploy where nature grooms,
Only fond stay of feast to sight.
Serene this poise of fine delight,
Truth now laid plain in wholesome show,
Stillness bears voice in breathless flight,
Purpose springs gain in ceaseless flow.
Touch of a gaze that distills sense,
Love comes to glow with finesse grand,
Dazzle and daze return intense,
Life in free flow makes love a friend.
Peace has a way to usher good,
Soul feels a touch that gently heals,
Here night and day forge sanguine moods,
Feel magic touch that hurls goodwill.
Who can deny beauty and grace?
Such awesome lines in myriad forms,
Flowers apply a scented face,
Fruits pure and fine in cheery norms.
Blossoms now spring with affluent ease,
Poignant this space where time greets grace,
Song birds now sing in bubbly peace,
Light shows a face in thrills that ace.

In the flushing garden path
we walked entranced,
the scarlet sun spreading the spectrum of dawn,
held us within the sequins of the sparkling sky.
You saw my heart contoured
in the crimson curves of clouds,
but not for very long,
for the rainstorm ravaged the sky,
I disappeared beyond the rainbow arch.
Over the wavering waves of the desert dunes,
we trudged with rhythmic exuberance,
until I melted away like mirage.
You reached the verdant oasis,
sprawling as the pulsating tapestry
of my olive heart,
swept away by the desert storm of yearning,
lost in the miasma of opaque oblivion.
On the silver sands of the satin beach
we traced the entwined fervent footprints.
The rolling waves embroidered
the pearly lattice on your lissom ivory feet.
As the tides of time erased my trail,
you now walk with poignant impulse
through the mist of cascading moonbeam
that has dissolved my nocturnal quintessence.
The dazzling dawn of desire veneers
your heart’s horizon with halcyon hues,
spreads the sunburst tinges
of my timeless longing for you,
you remember blushing aglow
your emotive epitome fossilized long time ago,
painting the panorama of golden garden
in your heart’s canvas,
blooming with the luster of the lost love.
Wandering listless in the wasteland
of the waned memory of belonging,
your tear drops roll on the garden path,
wrapped with the bronze leaves of the fall.
Their rustle echoes your songs for me,
long lost beyond the still shore of silence.
When in the seraphic spring
you're embraced by the ethereal essence of euphoria,
you'll never know
how much I miss your world
where I do not exist.
Place your trust here in Spirit fire,
Embrace wise touch beyond man's mind;
Note thus good cheer as Gifts inspire,
Taste truth as such where Love designs;
Etch a fond peace in actual grace,
Calm knows a squeeze of fragrant feel;
Old motives cease in poignant trace,
Sense a cool breeze that helps hurts heal;
Truth shapes beauty not like before.
Health comes easy with heart's sure core,
Odd yet lively beyond old lore;
Life quest lovely forevermore,
Yield soul sublime to Wisdom's face.
Speak Holy Ghost that all may see,
Plant Love's grand rhymes in saving grace;
Ink Lord of Host to set us free,
Remember Me as The Christ said,
Ignite our souls with vision clear,
Treat us to be with message laid.
Father make whole and purge all fear,
Impress our hearts with clear soul flames;
Raise conscious feel that each soul knows,
Echo our start to bless Your Name.
Move Love's goodwill in contrite show,
Outpour and teach us to be good;
Vet guidance here to live each day,
Extend Your reach with vibrant moods;
Surprise our cheer on Love's pathway.
