Long Unconstrained Poems

Little child
Your tiny hands hold a little flower
Delicately, you start weaving a story about peace
In your gentleness, you understand how happiness works
It is the sanctuary of warm softness in the heart
Free of all clouds and...

Your sands sieve through my fingers
The luxury is mine
You watch me around the clock
A perfect circle
Your all seeing eye.
I exist in your omnipresence
Hypnotised by your chime
You pave my thoughts
I trail your steps.
Suspended in time
I’m but...

[A tribute to my very favorite type of dreams in childhood, and I don't believe I'm alone in that.]


Once I could fly without a plane, 
unconstrained by gravity and
unbounded by mother earth, 
I would soar...

OH VINCENT

Oh Vincent, can we ever know what torments plagued you; 
what demons fought you; what images raped your senses?
It was no accident that you sent blinding blasts of brightness
swirling, like hurled saucers to splatter...

Two Poems



Avariciously she wanted to be a poetess

Cryptic colloquial eloquent words possessed

Often elusive eschewed from the theme

Limericks and rhymes avoiding etymology means

She an emissary of exonerated poetry banned

Refused extrication to facilitate an easy read

Hoped the...

I do not hold myself to time trumpets,
no list of things to do schedule for me;
but I follow my own true north compass,
I am unconstrained and unrestrained free !
Facing each new day with rapture...

Roosters crow at the break of day
Inviting the sun to come up
And reveal a partly cloudy sky
While the poet shivers as she stays
Out on the porch to view up high
The odd slow movement of clouds...

FEELINGS


Feelings,
Masters of my destiny
Lords of my life
Strength of my dreams
Instigators of my actions

Burning fire you are 
Consuming my whole 
Being:
My heart
My mind 
My soul
My spirit,  
As you relentlessly
Demand: 
To be conceived
To be formulated 
To...

When Death was free to roam the world,
unconstrained by science and medicine,
when doctors were mostly showmen,
and priests held the final word, then...
then people believed in God and in
heaven's bliss and hell's torments.

We moderns think that...

Afterwards in heaven’s garden
Where I find no weed or thorn;
Only stoneless soil unhardened,
Life is verdant, newness born.

Rows of hedges, trees, and flowers
Vibrant in their colors fair
Beauty floods my eyes for hours
Unconstrained by time, I stare.

I...

Aerial dribs and drabs, a sidewalk canvas
As a toddler chases bubbles her mother blows
       from confectionary soap,
Fluttering fluidity in spring air

Child's laugh, a mosaic of innocence, discovery and glee

Evilness consumed your mind	
You deflowered my innocence
And robbed my naiveté’
Burglarized my integrity
While applying a death grip on my sanity

Do you think about the youthfulness you stole?
Or give thought to the exploitation of my growth?
One day...

an image blue     a memory
 fleeting midst
          black,white &
 colour flows

 shadows stream
&  ideas fly
        free to drift

 afterthoughts   floating
zig-zags
 primitive themes
the unconscious   pre occupied

 the misshapen
          in  designs
to surprise
    & provoke
glimpses
      into the  bizarre

a short breath blown
a frottage

One Day Soon
One day soon when we’re covid free
there'll be fun for both you and me
Able to hug someone again
as we did in those bygone days.

Oh the joy when freedom has come

It's funny being a kid--
for one thing, 
you can never see eye-to-eye
with the grown-ups, 
and not just cause they're taller-- 
no, it's how they think,
in that strange way, 
what with all their secrets
and sneaky looks...

Sometimes I get nostalgia attacks
Like asthma attacks 
But worse
Because I have no inhaler for this
It contracts and expands my lungs into painful convulsions
Casualties of breath as I reminisce of the times before
Before I knew of...

When wind’s silence 
heralds boundless oblivion
and the trembles of cracked earth
raise the dust of tears
dried by the boundless footfalls
of sallow flesh

When a thread of gold
brings unearthly thought
and the misconception
of suns fallen
drives foolish men to their...

My finger felt unusually light and unconstrained
free of the weight and choke of the gold ring 
Did it slip off my finger or I hid it 
in a nook beyond my reach
Trying to recollect while

People, prepare for chaos;
democracy is struggling.
Worldwide ideologies lean far right;
dictators, potentates, and tyrants rule
unconstrained by any semblance of law.
The young don't recall past wars;
or what their fathers fought for.
Politicians sell fear, packaged as hope,
through accusations...
