Premium Member When You Were Mine

When you were mine the sky was deepest blue
And sunsets had a more resplendent hue
When you were mine the stars did scintillate
The wind’s caress like yours would titillate

When you were mine, the flowers were in bloom
The sovereign sun left not a trace of gloom
And mistress moon beguiled with moonlit beams
Our passion bathed our soul in gushing streams

When you were mine each night was magic filled
Sweet love we’d make until our souls were thrilled
Fulfillment brought with it our grateful tears
A testament to love that cast out fears

When you were mine, embodiment of love
You were my hope of heaven up above
I never knew such bliss could truly be
But now I’m lost, for you are not with me

Premium Member Playing With Words Under Fire

i faint
tiles fall on me
bury me

words like star-floaters
i pop
but less shaky hands sizzle-scintillate

those hands arrange and rearrange
bittersweet flowers and baby’s breath

the rapid eye movement of a painter’s gun
passionate splotches
cover me before i blink sos

one serendipitous word
sensational bonus of fifty points
neon sign euphoriants — i lift

my opponent cheats
teases my tiles
through skeletal-fingers
rattling me

places them in a line
flicks her pointer
and the dominoes
tumble and turn

the dictionary and thesaurus bluster
until they lose their breath
my face burns

A Wishful Wink

Self-seeking combined with appetite
unsettles our global foundations. 
Arrogant malice yields agony
as volatile as dynamite.
Diplomats dream up celebrations
portraying worldwide euphony.
Dazzling garlands line the street
winking past the gluttony.
Roses from all nations
scintillate, incomplete
harmony.

March 9, 2020

The last three lines are a quote: 'Roses from all nations scintillate in complete harmony'  from A Rose by any other Name - by Maria Williams.  My apologies, Maria,  for altering the essence of your line. Scintillate may also mean a flickering, wavering, bewitching light.   

The form is new to me,  the curtal sonnet, created by Gerard Manley Hopkins

The Wilderness

And we measure the action of the animal by various sticks..

And trees change over time, growing tall exerting their force in a time all it's own
Branches snap and fall and become sagging, soggy moist fodder for microcosmic universes,
and the maple burns itself away

Come to their demise decompose and become the forest floor debris
Now which magnificent 'birds of prey' soar over and swoop down into,
to clutch their prey


Wings thrumming like a heart beat 'lub-dub' as their talons send the tree debris flying
stirring motes of dust that scintillate in random sunbeams that illuminate grey shafts of sunlight in bar-codes across the forest...

Dry silence is broken by the sound of a soul when it's over stricken with awe

And in the wilderness, beast tear apart their prey leaving only bits of evidence of their existence

And time means nothing to to this terrestrial drama.

God's Polaroid

        Seven second serendipitous develop
        Macro piano keys maestro, Lord
        Ceiling laden with citrus psychedelic
        Unsatiated homosapiens flawed


        Ghost film fire eye-socket negatives
        Kaleidoscope rolls in their skulls
        Soiree opaque pink sequin sedatives
        Scintillate wicked sinful impulse
  
  
        Protein hungry industry herds herbivores 
        Apex predator caves to serpent 
        Coveted control position consumes pure
        Curious article of cruel torment 


        Sacred score smudged in blood punishes
        Hell or Heaven editors insidious 
        Emit charcoal chuckles, lit match judges
        Bicker Bible's pixels ambiguous 


        Dusk draws hills, halcyon skied silhouette
        God made man strive in shadow
        Modified paradise prints timely pirouette
        Gluttony grabs hanging mangos

Premium Member Strength Of A Thousand Men Affirmations

 I Am David, I Am King, I Am Nelson, I Am Ali
 I Scintillate Internally,
 I Am Strong, I Am of Brawn
 I Am Samson Strong
 I Am Valiant, I Am a Champion
 these scars they witness, I Carry the Strength of a Thousand Men!
 I Am Monumental, I Am a Mountain, in Psalms in Vastitudes
 In Vicars, and Swords, and Infinitudes
 I Am Powerful, I AM
 Thou, are Born Bright again
 Thou, bear these Wings for in Flight I just might catch Thy Light again
 Catch that Night, that cold ember that sparked Thy Flame
 Sword High, I Power through in Codex's of Valor
 In Blades, In Luminance, in Solar Power
 In Grace, perched High like Olympus Heights
 Sword from Stone, from Stone I just might Take Flight
 I just might Break Ranks, by Faith and Blaze towards Better Days
 towards Better Ways,   and by the Swiftness of the Blade, I find the Strength

Premium Member Moonlight on Meadows

My heart remains asleep, until you touch it... (poet)


You are the most' enigmatic existence,'
which will never be mine.
I remain a million waves away,
trying to make beauty from your scars.
Love is a reflective remedy in a world
veiled behind hateful hallucinations.
Envious eyes are an enemy 
in episodes of egression.
As you are a mistress of midnight,
and I, a dahlia rejoicing in daylight.

To the one who has composed an
enchanted poem with silken whispers,
concealed within the silent 
chambers of my sentiments,
lets go to a place where we can engrave 
our own molten bronze memoirs,
where death can never keep us apart.
An eternal paradise for just me and you,
where the hidden passages of unheard chapters,
no longer remain unspoken and untouched.

Kiss me like moonlight on meadows,
caressing each blade of my oasis
in shimmering, silvery sensations.
Knowing my memories will appear
at dawn, in the form of dewdrops.
When aroused embers emerge,
uncontrollable words flow on virgin fibers,
as each intimate beat of hypnotic hearts,
floats along psychedelic paths of harmony,
where perpetual petals blossom like rainbows.
Heavenly scents scintillate senses,
as glittering butterflies float like our souls,
with shadows of satin stars serenading 
our spellbound, sensual, sparkling spirits,
in realms with breathless nights and
velvet sighs echoing like lulling lullabies.

Each scribe springs into life in vivid visions,
like a divine dance, easing us into a tranquil trance.
A place called forever, illustrating immortal vows,
overwhelming like a Michelangelo masterpiece,
outliving the breaths of time in pristine clarity.

Premium Member Bonfire Heart

 Where Stars Collide and Shine Ablaze
 and Passions stir where Fires Rage,
 where Eternal Treasures Oscillate
 and Philosopher Stones shine like a Solar Sage,
 where Exotic Gems pulsate from Deep Within
 and Glow like Wildfires with Wild Flames,
 where Embers Uproar in a Blaze Of Glory
 and Ascend towards Legendary,
 and Eyes Glisten with Celestial Luminosity
 Vanquishing the Lesser with Heavenly Aristocracy,
 Pulsating Heaps Of Light like Sun Beams
 and Chakras Ignite like Solar Bolts Of Lightning,
 and a Triune of Mind, Body, Spirit Resurrect
 and Blitz Forth like Chariots,
 where Souls Ignite and Scintillate
 there, the Heart that burns with Bonfire Faith

Premium Member Tell This Tale Tenderly

their twin heart fires alighted
two passionate flames
one truly was excited
other full of blames

their merger was completing
disappointment too
her high hopes were depleting
she was glad they're through

her partner sought empathy
from her cousin Sue
now he gets no sympathy
no glance, no boo hoo

her new life is marvelous
she made her escape
a pioneer courageous
smooth as a new grape

so tell this tale tenderly
choose the words so well
choose the verbs most slenderly
do not oversell

okay if you titillate
difficult not to
you might even scintillate
speaking of these two

Premium Member Unfold

snow covers my coveted garden,
trees sigh and bare their leaves,
unruffled evergreens stand tall,
decked with shimmering ice-pellets
crystallized on every branches,
magnificent jewellery adorned!

longingly wait for majestic spring when
aquamarine horizon-rays with crimson hue,
unfold a sublime picture of dawn,
my senses are drowned in lilac dreams,
and lost in a tender reverie tangerine!

fragrant graceful flowers will wake me up,
swirling all vibrant colours of rainbow in palette,
playful spring-birds merrily cooing,
saffron imagination dawns on my dreamy eyes.
sun unleashes warmth, tulip-bulbs peek,
bluebells scintillate, creatures waking from slumber…
             
            Unfold a harmonious cosmos!
