Premium Member A Whisper To Me

A loud cry of mine, hearing it, all were delightful
A whisper to me – you’re welcome to this world.
A walk into dark that's startling and grave
A whisper to me – you’re indeed brave.
A difficult task accomplishing in the biting cold
A whisper to me – you’re dedicated.
A pleasant stroll in the gleaming starlit night 
A whisper to me – yours is a dauntless spirit.
A boating on the river viewing the waves
A whisper to me- life is full of ups and downs. 
A symphonic chime of jingle bells amused
A whisper to me- you’re blessed.
A swishing sound of swaying pine trees
A whisper to me- fulfill your obligations.
A visit to the age-old, mighty mountains
A whisper to me – be sturdy to face all troubles.
A gaze at the endless, serene blue waters 
A whisper to me – learn the merit of tolerance.
A thrilling walk in spring beside my girlfriend
A whisper to me- you’re my beloved.

Premium Member Tide

Storm a brewing upon the horizon,
With the Darkening of the sun
Clouds touching the sea
What next in my quest to be free
Lowering of my sail
The wind starts to wail
Coming at me
The sea
Waves so very tall
A mountain of waterery wall
For a moment my heart starts to stall.
 I shiver at this sight
Turning day into night
Put my bow to the wind
I shall not bend
Face this sea monster coming at me
May end up at the bottom of the sea
Don't really care
Doesn't dare
Davy Jones
May get my bones
But I feel no fear
As this monster draws near 
Lifting me so high
Seems my sailboat can fly
Salt stinging my eye
Boat jumping from wave to wave
Dancing above the watery grave
I scream with the storms  passion 
Which after a fashion 
I was it, it was I 
One and the same
In the sailing game
Fearlessly  we battle ,a test of wills
 A test of skills
Water slamming me back
I slip in and the wave I attack 
It seems much taller than I 
Once again I'm lifted toward the sky
Floating a moment in the stormy air
We were a great pair
The storm and i
Was saddened as it passed on by
Trembling and shaking
The sun starts waking
Baking
The chill from my soul
Survival was my goal
 drying the skies
The wind dies
My soul flies 
What a ride
The thrill I cannot hide
Riding the tide
Sea is where I roam
It's home sweet home

A Warning For the Young

In shadows deep, where secrets lie,
A warning whispers, heard nearby.
Through ancient woods and hallowed halls,
A tale unfolds, where danger calls.

Beware, oh wanderer, heed my rhyme,
For here unfolds a cautionary chime.
In nature's guise, enchantments sown,
Perils concealed, as seeds are sown.

The winds, they whisper eerie tales,
Of treacherous paths and hidden trails.
Each step you take, a choice profound,
In trepidation, the truth is found.

Mighty waves crash upon the shore,
Their roars a warning, forevermore.
Beneath the surface, a tempest stirs,
To unsuspecting souls, it silently lures.

In starlit nights, where darkness weaves,
Flickering shadows, the mind deceives.
Be wary of the seductive glow,
For danger dwells where secrets flow.

Through city streets, bustling and bright,
Shadows dance in the neon light.
Amidst the chaos, a caution cries,
Of hidden motives and sweetest lies.

In matters of the heart, tender and true,
A whisper of caution, I share with you.
Love's allure can mask a hidden thorn,
Beware the flames that leave hearts torn.

The clock's hands spin, relentless they go,
Tick, tock, a warning in the ebb and flow.
Time slips away, moments flee,
Choose wisely, for choices shape destiny.

So, listen closely to this poetic plea,
A warning woven with words from me.
May wisdom guide you on your quest,
And safeguard you, as you seek your best.

Premium Member City of Lights - 1

As the morning dawns and sunlight
Fades the darkness of night
Stars flicker out and moon turns to dust
And I recall the place of my heart
Here, I reside in Joyville, where I smile
Laugh and dance through the wonders

As noon rests against my bare skin
Caressing my heart with kindness
Whispering soothing thoughts
Into my soul and reminding me 
That wherever I go there will always
Be this place for me, Heart City

As the night colors the entire world
In hues of soft grey and sapphire
Where flecks of stardust capture my
Spirit in a whirlwind of emotions
My heart races and praises with prayers
For the warmth of this city called Soulful

There are places I go when I do not know
Where the best place is… places like 
Inspirational, Enlightenment and Yes, even 
Despairsville… places I wander through
When my mind needs feeding and my thoughts
Need bleeding, like a feeling so vast and sure
It reaches past my calm and pierces my core

In these places, I know of the need
Need that is great and rides waves of hope
Lights flicker and create hues of flourishing
Caresses that mingle with mystery and music
Breaking out of the pain and sorrow and sending
Grace, mercy, peace and promise… love so reliable
It breathes inspirational poetry through my soul

And I reach past the echo of discouragement
Discovering the hand of healing, hope, happiness
That makes a way, even when the way seems impassable
A way through the city of Regret, Dark town and Sadville
Into the heart of praise, promise and psalms that pray
For a way through the weeds of wickedness and sin
Into the Garden of grace with Salvation that will win

Leave those dark cities behind and walk a mile to find
Joysville, Heart Town, Faith City and Love that Lasts
Discover the path to Light, love and laughter and you 
Will find that this life can become something good
A part of your soul looks for this place where God 
Gives the assurance that He is always with you, Guiding
You through and coloring your world in hues of delight

Find your way – praise and pray – and you just may
Reach your destination and the home that awaits!

Premium Member Floating On Love

she split down her kaftan down the middle

spread hips imagination and playful foreshores 

lay down on the beach and listened to the waves


at first the sand ground at her passion but soon

the salt of the ocean moistened appetite for more

as she sailed on ebbs flows and pleasure let free


her lover joined at mid-riff played with her pearl

anchored on their pulsating coral reef of delight

the stroboscope of a lighthouse pointed the way


erect near a beach hut of drift wood and starfish

shadows applauded uncensored communal rapture

until drift spilled ripples and spray into the waft 


motionless they remained at the tide line of joy

imagined a wild fire roaring way into the night

retold their story and rejuvenated their dreams

The Law of Love and Harmony

Written on March 09 2015 4:32 AM 

Wind is blowing 
Moon is shinning 
Birds are whining 
Oh, the night is in motion

There's the girl,
And there's the man she loved.
The man smiled 
And she freeze 

Her heart accelerates 
And its velocity is changing 
Well maybe its the gravity
Because the girls falling

She can't contain what she feel 
Is there a formula in motion? 
She can't regulate the force
Is there a formula in free fall? 

There's the girl
And there's the man she loved.
The man speaks
And In the sound waves of his voice
She fell in love 

It was a kind of force
It will need a measuring
A weighing and an instrument

Yes, the girl is in some kind of law
The law of gravitational pull? 
The law of equilibrium?
The law of acceleration? 
No the girl said
"I guess its the law of love and harmony."

Premium Member A Broad Reach


The horizon sketches a moving line,
A boundary we oft take for the end;
But to the knowing spirit, limits bend,
 Inner self and outer bounds intertwine.

To forge a broad, sure solemn sacred reach,
We need unstrap from the edge of the shore
What we thought, what we wagged we knew before,
And let the wafting waves and waters teach.

The more we sail, the more we uncover
The horizon receding before us
And how little we know that we can trust,
With knowledge ocean, an endless wonder.

The ego shrinks, the branded harbour fades,
As we sail out on boundless ocean`s deeps;
A graceful  insight lies that never sleeps,
Guiding us through the deep sea shifting shades.

A bashful breath in shining stellar spark,
We are a tiny boat  in the vast sea,
A drop of rain in  the infinity,
A dot of light in the unbounded dark.

Let our end goal of life be the broad reach,
Knowing well that we can grasp but a drop
Of the stream of dew at the mountain top
Or a grain of sand on an endless beach.

Let`s stretch bounds of the mind, let anchors go,
Let`s sail in the vast sea, the glowing blue;
The light resides deep within us, that`s true
And we are one within the streaming flow.

On a broad reach, our vessel finds its guide,
Sails in tune with the invisible wind,
Letting unseen currents direct our swing,
Past the shallow blue water of low tide.

To travel a broad reach across oceans
Is to sail wide, without  destination,
Trusting our journey and our own vision	
Where our boat mirrors inner emotions.

             ________________________________________

Scarlet lips susurrous softly,
amid quiescence of dusk
bequeath beamily beguin beats 
within our sumptuous souls.
As grace echoes in crimson,
tears trickle toward titillating face 
vital words are shared in embrace, 
eliciting a warm scintilla that crams,
my heart to the brim,
our euphoria shall shut out the world
Such are your lovely virtues,
scarlet swing, swirl, and splendor,
mellifluous plea of my heartbeat.
Perhaps this flesh is gossamer,
wrapped around wintry bones,
until I hear the timbre of your voice.

We should meet at dusk,
as the sunshine is waning.
Daffodils light up my mane,
peppery sanguine sepals.
lusting lyrics lost like lines
Join me at dusk,
softly swinging 
across stardust lips 
of weary soul, singing in embers 
drawn down dunes deter
We should meet at dusk,
as our skin melts into night linen,
and we sit beneath the moonlight,
not requiring any words,
floating on seahorses, 
amid sapphire blue waves, 
and waltzing to sea-angel moans.  
We should meet at dusk,
to show me your soft hands,
wrap me in rose petals,
slow-burning summer opening.
We should meet at dusk,
with quartz amethysts
cravings for whispers of the future,
while never departing.
I shall wrap my ribs around yours,
sustained and pianissimo.
kindly apply your fingertips,
and tiptoe down my spine.
We should meet at dusk,
and, well, simply kiss me,
throw me a steamy embrace,
will fade into wildflower shades. 
we whisper as silence draws,
shy, pink, fizzy, sizzling apple spirits. 

I retain a nightly tally,
hours on given days
amidst the quiet murk of waiting
you embody my soul.
I almost lost faith
soaking in a velvety eclipse,
years flew by lacking your love,
which goes hollow until you smile.
I attempted to forget,
the curves of your body,
and sweat-formed salt puddles,
dewing on the warm golden dome,
those were milestone spots
of mutual delight.
Kisses resemble seaports.
such a visceral map to feel
that plagues my dreams.
Years of seclusion occurred,
erosion-prone, and sallow
a memory-bound state,
that yearns solely for,
your trustworthy love.

Ocean Wave Girl

Over the seven seas lies my faith and strength
Over the hundred years lies my soul within
Across the ocean is my open shore of glory
Each wave that crosses over tells a specific story
You can see me from the hills over yonder
A ocean wave girl living up to her honor
You can see my shadow at the mountain arch
A heart that shed so much blood, but a perfect art
I've known to be a warrior, I knew from the start
The wind is the hill I have to cross over, when the wind 
blows hard, I look pass my shoulders, cause the love in
my veins is what keeps me still, to flow back in the water
and live up to my will.

_____________________________________________________________

Simplistic Meaning: A girl that loves the ocean waves, has died a hundred years ago doing what she loved to do, Her faith and strength was to dodge the waves and over come the high winds, She loved the ocean, She spent time there and each wave/memory tells a specific story. You can feel her soul from the hills over yonder, She died there as a surfer living up to her honor, Her shadow is a reflection of a "true champion", that shed so much blood doing what she loved to do, but an inspirational art. If you knew her; Her love is what kept her strong to chase her dreams and carry on.

Journey

All alone, just by myself
I journey through life,
Many walk alongside
Yet all along, I but walk alone.

Slowly, steadily at an even pace
Resting, but a wee bit awhile,
Milestone after milestone
Wearily, I walk the well-trodden path of life,
Never ever straying afar
Never wading into the rough waters
Just anxious to get somewhere,
Just eager to find myself
a patch of cool shade away from this
searing heat of the mid-summer day.

No compass in hand
No polestar to guide
No beacon beckoning
No sails set
No winds of the sea to steer the course
as I voyage through life
Just hoping to drift rudderless
into some safe harbor someday.

Every so often, I pause to look back
and see only my shadow
grudgingly tagging along
And this winding road 
relentlessly trailing behind.

The surrounding silence hangs
like a cold breath in the air
And the waves of the turbid waters
urging me onto its stygian depth.
