Premium Member Instrumental Emotions

Have you noticed how instruments show feelings?
It truly is a marvel to behold!
With the human touch they express emotions
That the musicians may not have told...

The Violins and Violas, how
They sing. They laugh. They cry
In the deepest realms of melody.
It brings tears to the eyes.

The chuckle of the Cello
Brings a smile to the face
As the strings vibrate and wiggle away
From a tickling hands embrace.

The Bows in unison rise and fall
Like dancers in a show.
Jolly whistles make merry tunes
From the Flutes and Picallo.

The delicate twinkles from the Harp
Add some sparkle to the light.
The playful Piano keys compete 
And race in this musical night.

The Drums echo out the beat
Of the Orchestral heart.
The rates of which will vary
To the ending from the start.

The audience accompanies 
The Orchestral happy hour
With clapping hands and tapping toes
And lyrics voices shower...

Watch and listen carefully.
More than musicians are at play.
The instruments are happy 
And they share their joy today!

Flower Fairyland

"Flowers are the music of the ground from earth's lips spoken without sound."                                                          - Edwin Curran


During my morning saunter, I saw the crocus smile,
even as the dewdrops danced on dandy daffodils
The peonies poked out their puny buds from under the earth 
and the vibrant violas shook their violet heads,
Lilies looked lovely in their pink and yellow dresses;
I stopped and stared at colours bared, 
the sweetest scents staggered my senses,
The blissful breeze waltzed with the flowers,
As the birds belted music in the background;
Had I stepped into a fresh flower fairyland?
Grateful to God for His colour coordinated creations,
I realised ~ the harbinger of good times, Spring has arrived.

Premium Member Spring Sonata

How many times have I written of her glows!
Yet, the yearning to write more and more grows.
Forgotten feelings soon get a vent.
When I see the sprouts, in shyness, they are bent.
Ra.. ra.. ra.. ra.. la..la..la..la.. The scented breeze hums

Aromas of my favourite buds, blooms, and blossoms
Of tulips, hyacinths, lilacs, violas, and balsams
Creep and climb jasmines, sweet peas, and clematis.
Entwining them as though a long-lost kinship bliss
From far-off trees, jealously peep the envy-red plums.

Fruit flies, sand flies, blue bottle flies, and dragon flies
Commune, with multi-hued butterflies fluttering in the skies
Queen of the Night, Bird of Paradise, and Celandine Poppies
When secretly providing nectar to the worker bees
Where-from, to chill and thrill them, come these ice crumbs?

Premium Member Slow Sink

 star-swept with 
soft blushing blooms ...
this slow sink ,
swathes my henna heart 
with deep mauve hues ...
as I fall into the frostbitten lake 
mispronouncing ~
the marmoris of metaphors 
that were meant 
to burn with magic ,
where the soulmate of poetry 
breaks within the tears of sunset ~
sipping sighs of sorrow 
from the crystal sky ,
that leaks loneliness 
through the cracks of 
liquid lilacs and lavender light ,
because there seems to be 
no translation for the 
language of love 
that weaves woes 
from warm wisteria
  instead of blossoming
in coffee-scented chiffons 
  moulded into origami orchids ~ 
without any creases 
and I wear no name 
in the absence 
of your ablaze august ashes …

read me swiftly 
orchestrating in 
the blackcurrant tattoos 
breathing ... in tributaries 
stretching to 
the silent traces of trauma ,
twinkling with 
turquoise and turpentine

for, I am not alive ~ 
but the seas still crash 
the swollen shadows in my ribs ,
kissing the fallen sun …
that ebbs and flows …
through violets 
of vaporising violas  
like an incensed inferno ,
uncensored with ultraviolence 
escaping the delirious doom
within driftwood dreams …

I want you ~
to not speak to me 
so in affection
in this sparkling satanic siesta,
because poetry 
has forevermore been 
my saviour and my slaughterer ~ 
that leaves me …
drifting with the flow ,
in exile … evermore …
chained with
    moonstone cobwebs
of confused consciousness 
   and conversing cryptics ~
befogged with gaslit goldens
laced with forest greens,
where verses wander 
like a villain ,
withering 
         in emeralds …
 listen, O velvet ink,
               longing to be 
                           r e 
                          s  c   u

An English Country Garden

An English country garden 
so evocative of times gone by
recalling all the many plants 
lovingly sown by Granny and I

Majestic Lupins and Hollyhocks 
so tall they almost touched the sky
Lily-of-the-Valley and Forget-me-nots
tiny flowers loved by Granny and I

London Pride and Morning Glories 
no longer taking pride of place
pretty Violas and Pansies 
velvet petals with a sweet smiley face

Old fashioned Roses 
their beauty was sublime
such a heavenly fragrance
belonging to another time

Today our plants are brash and loud 
as they try to make a statement
delicate beauty disallowed
no fragrance wafting like a cloud

Precious memories returning
of a Granny I loved so
together gathering fragrant blooms
we’d tie them with a satin bow

Perfecting a fragrant posy
a centerpiece for our table 
precisely at the stroke of three
Granny and I enjoyed afternoon tea

Premium Member Ratzinger Und Ich

We asked for nothing more
than a Musik sheet the war 
was nearing an end you and 
your bruder was quite young 
your wounds were healing as 
we kneeled at Saint Sebastian 

Church Rome 1944 mass wasn’t 
the same without the harsh bellows 
of Victory sending the birds fleeting 
through the chapel as the bells chimed 
I’d remember you always every single 
time I fondly winded a wooden 

coo coo as the milk maids dance 
the wood cutter chops the bird 
flies out the steeple over frauenkirche 
our lady of Munich as we gathered 
kirchenmusik our time Marienplatz 
Mary’s town house of monks 

seeing your tiny face peeking 
through the American soldiers 
hiding from Hitler amazing even 
though you were wounded you 
stood fast in Rome awaiting 
victory captured a pow a prisoner 

of war hard to believe today that 
priest were being kelp among 
my grandfather platoon somewhere 
in Italy keeping you and your bruder 
safe sharing lovely hymns throughout 
Europe my meeting you while touring 

Munich Chaplains arch bishop of Munich 
the fondness of shopping in the forst 
dining feasting on viener snitzel and 
pomfritts a crisp Riesling sways 
settled my nerves right before the 
guest arrived the clock makers all 

lined seeking solace for peace carving 
my children toys from wood to take 
back home to America my making 
guitar keys for violins cellos violas 
writing poetry why we were the Musik 
who would have thought one of you 

would be Pope I always thought 
it would have be you Georg you sang 
like a Cardinal creating a flock to the 
choir many blessings Georg and Joseph

May the Lord always be with your spirits

Premium Member Spring Is In the Air

A faint perfume of lilac blooms has stirred the sleeping dawn
Bright sunlight weaves a golden loom with threads across the lawn
Crisp white-lipped Delphiniums tossed snowflakes to the hills, while
Daffodils and pink jonquils shake off the morning chill

Each violet of morning has left no stone deferred
Found growing near, a sprout appears from every seed interred!
Greeting me like candle flames, are poppies, gold and red
Hawthorne weaves a golden crown around the arbor's head!

I look long past the windowpane, and spring has bloomed anew,
just in time to see the sky revealed in shades of blue
knitting primroses in surprise! A sight long overdue!
Lost between the flagstones, alyssum, wild and free, has
mushroomed into puffs of white, competing with sweet peas!
New sprouts of cosmos spring alive in flowerbeds we've teased

On winter's lace a pansy face is smiling up at last! 
Petunias in their pastel coats, are dressed like royalty
Queen of all in velvet robes, the iris crowns the grass!
Resplendent are the foxgloves…..and the dragons are a Snap!

Sweet Williams are such gentlemen, they make the morning grand
Tiger lilies brave the wind, stalking in the breeze
Under every shady tree, violas are reprieved, while 
verdant shades of primrose lace wear green upon their sleeves
Wisteria's hysteria spreads levity with ease!

Xanadu is Statice "quo"……now, what more could it do?
Yarrow blooms tomorrow.  I'll have to dry a few
Zinnias mean that spring has sprung, to share fresh air with you!

Premium Member Wishing for Spring

there are mountains of snow
   outside my window
the temperature is well below
zero
the trees are wearing white gowns
some are like skeletons
        reaching for the sky
the sky is winter pale
&the wind is howling
   but I am dreaming of Spring
wishing for flowers
herbs like mint&rosemary
growing
      in my kitchen window
I can see everything in my mind
the volume of color&hues
          daffodils&violas
&painted daisies
in my overflowing garden
     a bright sun in a blue sky
fluttering butterflies, bees&birds
the overwhelming variety of
                         pansies&petunias
oh, I do love nasturium tumbling
bright poppies&coneflowers
       &cannot forget the tulips
or forget-me-nots . . .

Roses Hypothhetically If You Find Your True Love

Reine des Violettes - the rose is Fushia
Love thee - love thee not is the daisy - dreams
Thee dreams of rose petals
Bewildered - are pale
Of thy shades of pink
Called the Belindas
Maggie- she a rose of blossoms too
Petals - so pure - true of dark - be true pinks
The reine DR Violettes
Extroidinaire of aroma
Know thy fragrance
To be of prominence
Marchesa - Bocella - Light sweet the scent
Her fragrance then beauteous
Be - love at first sight!
Ne dawn! Climbs - up the hedges
Pink and ever so true - petals devine
Thee shrub - buds that of an Old Blush
Blushes of thee - How do I love the buds?
Violas are blue violettes
Tis so beauty true
Called penny series
Deep of thee blue hue
"How do I love thee"?
"Let me count the ways"  in life
The muse - the prose everlastingly on that rose
The climbers picturesque. plant thy paths
Thee rendezvous of sweethearts , too true.
I loveth the bud and it doth blossom in the prose.
