Long Rescinds Poems

I shall resolve to leave this
Place now...
And steadfastly search out,
Nestling between ridge and bluff
Amidst the folds of a foreign 
Land,
Several acres of unkempt ground
Fallow and rough;
Upon which stands...
Crumbled stone walls
With an exposed slate roof in
Some...

Love like this… such beautiful bliss,
Lover of my soul – it is He who makes me whole.
Love so amazing… my heart is always praising.
Lover of my heart – His love set me apart.
Love so forgiving…...

"Ransom"




Held to ransom 
words inject your mind
pierce your skin
drawn backwards 
you transcend, 
you look within
a bloodied mind
the numbness melts
inconsequential ignobles
and dreary misfortune
a polar ice cap 
lying cold on stony heart
rescinds


Blue blood bleeds Red
Mystery Girl
Implodes your...

Winter Wind  The Boy from Colorado
By David J Walker

Cold   
Dry    
Grey
The winter winds 
Select the day 
To rush the trees
And brush the field 
Where cotton corn and wheat 
Would...

Midday light unfolds a shawl
How strange that it can numb the cold
Sun skirts the brow of peak and mound
where white on white can blind the eye
and seize the moment for awhile

Sweat trickles from his forehead,
He...

When time echoes the promise of a rambling soul, one who knows that the past never can be left, because it is there that solace leaves its caress, its breath ever rising in the presence...

Swiftly the years swing away fast,
Memory steers both first and last;
Swiftly the sad dissolves in mists,
Memory bad rescinds old lists.


Quickly sad times forlorn and old,
Memory chimes to forfeit cold;
Quickly bad things dilute with age,
Memory flings...

The winds come to me from the fields of sleep
Where dreams are blown out of the shallow hills
And I, in my solitude, do rejoice
As I take my comfort within their voice
Which visits me as the...

A lighthouse blinked deep in the shadows' gray   
a fog-horn bordered at the distanced lines,
few stars were scattering above the bay
and scintillating mirrored in my eyes;
- my eyes were focusing upon the brines,

The gravity above bends all curvature.
Rusty creases smooch the downpouring nectar,
leaving hints of shaky aches here and there.
More of it can split smiles and slit tears.

Nails intrude into the forbidden territory.
Drill repeatedly to fill air...

(SOMEWHERE IN FRANCE 1917)

It’s just another starry night
all is at peace before the storm,
Yet so afraid am I, of the impending summer’s day 
now the shadows begin to form.

Many silhouettes create memories
those in childhood verdant...

The threshing floor divides the brisk cold winds
and too gentle zephyr of mortality.
I choose the rose-red blush where death rescinds.

My mind reels with the thrill of whiteout blinds
buffeted by green field sentimentality.
The threshing floor divides...

Enduring love in a letter box
for it wearies not with age
neither does it fade in time 
It forever lives on every page

Oh I know it all to well
love comes and go's like the tides
but here...

The dove flies by with olive branch  extended
Showing the world that peace is not but a whim
to search your conscience is recommended

The leaders of men listen to your heart, affected
by the power that wars...

Queen Caroline hails one request
that excellence must have no bounds,
each dress displayed, shall manifest
as brilliant Blue Ridge Mountain gowns.

Her summer dress, a sunlight's kiss
as breezes play the season’s song,
such glory thrives in temperate bliss,
as mountain...

When walking through a graveyard in among the many stones;
I’m told beneath the path I tread, lies rotting flesh and bone.

But I refuse to dwell upon what death and time have done:
Instead I choose to...

Soaring storm seethes in the shattered sky
Traces the tormenting terror in the calm air
The whispering wind of joy knows not why
It should face ruthless turbulence of despair.

Afflicting anger flares up in the spiteful mind
Smolders the...

Leaves were green dresses in Spring; now wrinkled with age
Yellowed as an old love poem written on a parchment page
Stripped from tree limbs by Autumn's vibrant flowing winds
Chilled air is part of seasonal changes that...

Surging storm swarms in the shattered sky
Traces the tormenting terror in the frantic air
The whispering wind of joy knows not why
It should face the ruthless turbulence of despair.

Neither prey nor pawn
nor life before the awn
soul's bitterness conforms ~ forlorn
to mediocrity before the dawn!

Contentment strives to grace its mother's arm
I strive not so ~ objecting from within
I strive to nullify complacent win

"The snow did not even whisper its way to earth, but seemed to salt the night with silence" - Dean Koontz.


Still as the winter’s night, mourning
When will we heed His soft warning?
Snow dreams, believes, sometimes...

The long tunnel at its end a light
To an eye it is a delight
Not only because gold is in sight
But because of ancient Gods this is symbol of might

The firmament's still calm rescinds.
Thrashes out gloomy storm whirlwinds.
Lightening flashes striking on high.
Ring out wild bells to the wild sky.

A funnel forms, living peril.
The atmosphere going feral,
Horrific whirring sings its cry.
Ring out wild bells to...
