SNOWGLOBE MEMORIES Poetry Contest
Mystic Rose Rose
There's a snowglobe catching my eye,
a Hallmark moment, up in the sky,
I dream of a White Christmas gone by,
up where the stars shine bright,
and where dreams never die.
There's a cabin covered in snow ...
little kids playing toe to toe,
smoke billows from the chimney top,
a snowman dancing to the bebop.
I'm chasing my reverie with steins of beer,
fostering the pub, and my nightly cheer.
As the snow furries circle the globe,
watching sadly is a lonesome dear.
The jukebox pours its last song of the night,
into a cup of lost dreams that never took flight.
“The rhythmic beauty of togetherness doesn’t fade for love is lyrical” - By Poet
My time is made of many happy hours,
when you give me a glinting prism of glass.
I split the sun spectrum in vivgyor colors
for your dainty face the dawning rays to flush.
In the facetted mirror on your enticing face,
the alluring motif of yearning comes in my view.
Your sweet smile laces your innate grace,
enwraps my heart, and I always find it new.
The lustrous lens of my longing I find magnify
the window of your heart for the butterflies
to enter, and with my ardor they merrily fly
with my love in languishing disguise.
My radiant lens of fervor focuses sharply you
onto my entranced eyes, I’m lost in reverie,
see your face gleam all the time anew,
painted on the canvas of my memory.
The music of my heart you’ll hear pass you by,
serenading in joy when with you I’m close.
The nightingale of emotion will fly in your sky
with the cadenced lyric of love I’ll compose.
My thoughts have rounded to you again ,
you are so distracting . I want my thoughts to ease
themselves with reverie and rest upon all that you are .
My examinations hold you undividedly
and are always pleasantly delicious .
I want to swim in all your colors
and dive below the surface. I want to see you as nobody sees you ,
every shade and shadow and hue lit with a
clear beam of light highlighting all that is tangibly held within .
To make you freely visible and to appreciate the volume
which is filled in you .
You hold me like so many others who gaze intently
upon all that can be seen in you.
A life so precious and quality endearing , I want to touch
that beauty and hold it through every age in time .
I want all to know what I see .
To reach out and posses everything that makes you unique.
To bath every shade in the light that we may fully see the vision .
That it my be planted firmly grow and take root
and become breathtaking in it’s future.
I have made them visible so that all may see your Glory.
So that our Love will be a shining light for all

Roman 13:8
ESV
Owe no one anything, except to love each other,
for the one who loves another has fulfilled the law.
I'm enjoying your theatrics
How you fake it with such flair
Pretend that don't see me
Act like I'm not there
I hear your cackling giggle
With exaggerated smile
A show of pure contentment
Play acting all the while.
I'm not your target audience
Don't buy your reverie
I feel your eyes across the room
Burning, watching me
I know that you're aching
Choking with desire
Dreaming of my mouth, my touch
Your body is on fire
I'm afraid you're breaking character
Lusting into rage
You shake and sweat from passion
Time to leave the stage
You wanted this remember?
You needed to be free
Had to view your options
You'd be settling with me
So continue with your monologue
You're quite the one man show
You're convincing everyone but me
I see you and I know
On a wisp of wattle
that cradled in the fig,
a dreaming began
as sleep draped veils
to nurture a gleam into
dazed eyes,
as mantles of moonbeam
wreath temples
I fell to,
A gathering cluster
that saturated all reality,
a sculptor with tool
set about carving
a bird of paradise
as form finished
it flew away
A dove birthed
from a painters brush
and wiggled free to
splash the canvas
of black
staining its feathers
in obsidian
from centurions
I am gifted a
mariners compass,
they lead me to three rivers
setting sail
like the hunter after hare,
the cross and crown
my guiding lights
my keel wedged
on flying fish,
once soaring
times hand pulled
me to dock with face
now,
so weary I sleep
endless tomorrows,
and will drift awake
as the phoenix
morphs to crane
infinitesimal stars
will emblazon my hair
with constellations
as I regather from
the comforts of reverie
—-
and every now and then,
seeing miniature worlds
on specks of wonderment
will remind me,
that I am just dream-weaving
through southern lights
the sea calls out to me
in the distance out my window
whimsical dreams of sailboats
launched onto waves that glisten
ah how the sea calls out to me
warm breezes stir hushed starry night
its briny perfume lingers in the haze
the stillness beckons in all its splendor
a silence hovers ever so gallantly
ah the sea so calls to me
the moon’s a lonely traveler
cast as a vagrant wanderer
for lovers to meet upon her gaze
it offers solace to shattered hearts
while late at night the sea calls out to me

I've no need to steal starlight's golden glow
for I see light in the jade intensity...
the brilliant sparks in your looks to know
the penchant propensity of love
burning brightly in your green eyes
How deeply I feel your tenderness
in every lingering affectionate touch
Are you aware of what your allure
does to me each time you are near?
When you cup my face in your hands,
have you an inkling, my love
of the tears I try not to cry,
knowing that you're mine?
I hear the moans you cannot conceal,
the groans when your arms surround me.
I long for your enamored embraces
and the way they make me feel
when you trace me with your sighs
I shiver when your lips sweep across mine,
fanning flames of my want and desire
They would put a wildfire's blaze to shame
Each time you whisper my name,
you claim another piece of my heart
Thunder strums in my head
and in that moment, all I dread
is the thought of you turning away
I would yearn to rekindle the embers...
to warm the chill that entered your heart
if you were to say we've drifted apart
As the rising tide washes sea upon sand,
you wipe away my tears
Stride for stride and hand in hand
you walk with me, forever at my side
in luminous light and in reverie
Trace me with your sighs...
lovingly
passionately
unforgettably...
touch every part of me
so that I may cling to traces of you

“There are moments in life when anxiety, bewilderment and tension can turn into slow acceptance, opening new spiritual insights and strengthening one’s faith”--- By Poet
In dazzled astonishment
She looked up from her reverie,
As she heard the flap of wings overhead
And saw the flash of laser beams in her dim lit room
Before her, stood a winged seraph
A radiant silhouette with such gentleness and grace
Never beholden on any human face.
With hands raised in benediction,
Gabriel saluted Mary and said-
“Blessed art thou amongst women…
……………………………………
The rest she heard in a trance.
Unable to comprehend what was conveyed,
The girl looked up nonplussed.
Again he said, “The Holy Ghost shall come upon thee
And a son shall be born of thee
Whom you shall call Jesus”
In that nanosecond of a new revelation,
Did Mary’s world shatter like glassware
Or did her virgin womb thrill with new life?
Was it a moment of epiphany when she felt,
Heaven opened before her in all its splendor?
Did she swim in the waters of joyful tiding?
Or gyrate in the sweeping swirl of tidal waves.
For the girl already espoused to a man,
In whose dreams his comely form had begun
Flitting in and out,
Was it a moment of silent ravishment?
Or of stupefied bewilderment?
Did a dagger cut through her heart?
Not sure, however Mary didn’t flee,
To her it was an epiphany
And she willingly said- “Let it be”
In her case, dread and epiphany came in synergy.
“When the torrents of longing of two hearts mingle
the lovers swim in the entrancing stream” – By Poet
The cadence of craving soars on the wings of dream,
behind the closed eyes, the lilt of longing hovers
in the sapphire sky suffused with radiance of reverie
of the dormant love I nurture deep in my heart.
When sleep holds the entranced vision in a spell
my dreams fuse with the facsimile of your charisma.
Lost in the depth of blind love, they can’t discern
when the two yearning hearts merge into one.
As your radiant cherubic charm flashes within me
I feel the rhythm of your love mingle with mine,
cascading as the enticing torrent of togetherness
in the vivacious valley on the placid plateau of love.
After sixteen years
How does one say bye?
How do you let go?
Not of them
But the company
To embrace loneliness
And say bye
How?
How do you refuse a silent bye bye
To no one but the closer ones
I’ll play a façade, a camaraderie
When you love the one who’s so far away
How do you deal with not being able to wake up every morning
And breathe, “I Love You!”
When your future prospectus dares to tell you
“Never again will you meet”
How do you wake up and still carry on with this loved one?
When words are your only angelic weapon to play in lieu of your heart
How do you remain faithful with so many others close by
It’s the devotion of the soul
It’s the freedom of the heart
It’s a reverie of the mind
If I faltered
Where would we stand?
If you faltered
Would my heart still beat?
When you love the one who’s far away
Regardless of the generation
How do you cope with the thought of future separation?
