Long Symbolise Poems

"The Crow Bar"

she said,
here I bury my dead,
you can hear them sleeping
somnulent forget-me-nots,
snoring blithely unaware,
in neat rows between 
the thick,
ink injected lines,
their soiled lives
ploughed and 
turned over 
replanted
sunnyside down
expunged and 
wrung out

eventually,
not totally oblivious, 
they...

helplessly carried away with waves.
My feet are burning...

The tiny little white flower, with star-like petals that bloom in all directions?

Prompt: Sundial


Stone keeper
of time so frail,
Gazes over gardens,
Poisoned
by pretentious people

Time trickling away,
The truth shall stay.


Superior shrine of ages
Shines,
Preserved
past periods
when legends had long	lost life.
Casting contorted shadows from its path,
The renewed sun shall laugh;...

With a golden nape, that area on the neck’s rear,  
And a silent voice, excluding some chirps and stonks,

That you love me and I love you.

Think I need a flag…

To reflect my being
Think I need a flag
For everyone sightseeing
To admire all my qualities
And individuality
A flag to tag not to brag
Though representing…

To hold up very high
And higher...

That rambling castle across the landscape bewitched my heart
As though divinity has signed, gorgeous is its art.
Are the cherubims relaxing, spreading out their legs and hands?
Are these archaic, ornate boulders on mountainous strands?

Cave-like, carved curvy...

ON BEING RIGHT

The flag that bore a holy cross or crescent
Claimed to symbolise one righteousness and truth
Yet each side had same battle cry incessant
Unique virtue moved the sacrifice of youth
Europe’s fields now bear the ends...

Oh dragonfly your name 
is such a cruel misnomer.
For you are neither dragon nor fly.
Its true, your larvae are vicious monsters.
But, once pupated and transformed to adulthood,
your delicate beauty, in form and action, is astonishing.

The linearity of time banishing winter blues away

As they say until Mays over we should neer cast a clout

"Winter Rain"

The Lady in the grey mackintosh stands stark and somber in the cold, grey

Her body is stiff and still as she waits calmly for the last bus to arrive.

She is holding a brightly...

Reflecting skills and passions of the maker
In a modern style, or maybe antique

It also says something of the wearer
Choosing that special item to display
As a bespoke item, it’s all the...

nor it will set at dawn
or it will be dimmed...
