All the Pretty Words
"All the Pretty Words"
All the pretty words
blooming like summer jonquils
fade from the velvet fresh green tongues
and rich fecund tussled beds
of poets and minstrels
strumming hearts with
fingers that waltz over keys
plucking tangos from dreams of
sensitive...

A Season's Dance
The seasons vary as they come and go,
and each, a lovely lady, loves to dance.

she wears whenever she can get the chance.
She often glides through night beneath the...

The valley's call is louder
than the mountain's peak.

Fell halfway from the stairway to heaven.
Here in the realm of the fallen are supple lilies swaying in the evening breeze

I Lingered At Loves' Door
I lingered at loves' door
Lips waiting for a kiss or two
A brush of passion
A whisp of warmth
As many lovers do
The first was quite dull
Fumbly digits all like thumbs
And when it came to kissing
A mouth...

Let's Tango
Little waves of light, reflecting darkest night,
Embracing shadows, so alive – feelings to recite.
Little wonders, growing, soft and silent, flowing,
Coloring hearts, so graceful – amazing, mind blowing.
Little whispers, rising, fragile but so energizing,
Breathing hope through...

Masked At Midnight
castle bound
castle masked
masked by clouds
masked by snow
snow holding horrors
snow dancing in candlelight
candlelight deepening the hollows
hollows of deep sunk eyes
hollows of alcoves
alcoves with writhing lovers
alcoves with frosted pink floors
floors ripe for waltzes
floors hiding trap...

Our eyes are on enthusiastic elation;
In sunlight, they shine in golden green,
We children gather to witness the scene;
Though we have our mangroves,
Neighbor’s is tastier; reason none knows;
As throwing...

Big, giant hands are wrapped around my neck
Before they let me take a step they always pull me back
They slap me, choke me, wipe their sweat on me
They are the hands of mighty HISTORY.

the list is a thing that broke my heart
it tore me and my friends apart

Tanzend
Tanze, tanze,
meine Liebe,
dein Herz tanzt,
dein Haar tanzt,
deine Augen tanzen,
und ich,

halte dich in meinen Armen,
meine Liebe,
mit deinem Geruch nach Apfelsinen und Honig.
Uns gehört die Musik,

Vaporizing clouds are dulcet and colored.
Cinnamon light was shed on my shoulders.

Rushing streams released as winter thaws
As nature wonders I stand in awe.
Spring awakens, her heartbeat quickens
A pulse of sap through bare boughs thickens

Storms of Fall Splendor
8-16 Lines of Fall Splendor – 9-12-23
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Storms of Fall Splendor
Whirlwinds of splendor jitterbug in back streets,
Autumn’s song breathes in a blizzard of umber,
Downpours of vermillion create flushed retreats
Crimson cloudbursts, impetuous as thunder.
Tempests magenta scuttle on...
