Premium Member Stardust Serenade


As the scarlet sun sets slowly down the cold horizon,
the onyx night glows in the tinsel torrent of twilight,
the shining stars sprout one by one in the milky way,
cosmic concerto of constellation starts in the silky sky.

Ebony night shapes the silhouette of sapphire sky 
above the malachite profile of the forest canopy 
that wears the bejeweled crown of heavenly décor,
embroidered by lyrical lattice of serenading stardust. 

The spray of resonating sequins of the morphed dreams
drizzle through the misty music of the mystique stardust.
The astral symphony resounding in the ambiance of silence
blends with the refrain of whispering passion wind blowing by.

Our paired essence interweaves with the calypso of night,  
when the seductive song lyrics of longing the stars write.
Melodic stardust shimmers with the cadence of attuned hearts,
composes a new music of life with the intonation of ecstasy.

The stellar meadow of the magical night sparkles above
with crystal charisma of the constellation of blooming stars, 
thus designing the tuneful dreams for our love to sing 
in the symphony of silver stardust in the garden of night.


Journey of a Poet I am Poetry 3

A poet dreams, a tale to tell,
With ink-stained fingers, heart aglow,
He wanders paths where wild thoughts flow.

In valleys deep where echoes dwell,
A poet’s soul weaves tales to tell.  

Through bustling streets and the still of night,
He captures whispers, the world in sight,

He sails on dreams, Finding beauty in moments, 
but never at a cost.  

He scribes down visions that float in the sky,
In laughter and sorrow, in love's sweet embrace,
The poet finds solace, a sacred space.  

As doubts creep in, and the nights turn wrong,`
Yet with every stumble, a lesson learned,

He learns that truth wears many a face,
In the silence, the chaos, the mundane routine,
The poet discovers what living can mean.  

So he journeys on, with the world at his feet,
In the language of longing, where passions meet,
Forever a seeker, in verses unchained,

He weaves his legacy into the night,
For the journey of a poet is never complete,
It's a boundless odyssey, where hearts and words greet.

A poet finds their sacred space;
With every stanza, every rhyme,
They carve their mark upon the time.  

For every journey starts anew,
With ink and passion, they pursue.

Premium Member Tell the Clown Weasel

You should tell the clown weasel, the other girls said.
I had seen him before, but he looked daffy in his head.
He wears a diamond triangle clown suit and enormous red shoes.
I do not think I could, I admitted. He looks like rather weird news.

He is sage and wise, they told me. He has never steered us wrong.
A beautiful Indian woman who was nodding her head, wore a sarong.
He has an enormous talent for telling you what you could do.
He gives you a multitude of choices, several hints and some clues.

I sought out the weasel, even though I was not optimistic at all.
He gave me some ideas – some huge, others quite tiny and small.
He has such a fine brain, I stayed with him for a couple of hours.
My first impression had been ridiculous, he was full of smart powers.

Premium Member Fullness in emptiness

No iron wheel disturbs the velvet moss,
Nor smoke of cities stains the amber light,
Here, mortal cares are reckoned total loss,
And day retreats to soft, star-laden night.
The silver brooklet hums a quiet song,
To ancient oaks that guard the silent stream,
Here, untamed beauty righteth every wrong,
And wraps the soul within a waking dream.
Come, cast away the shackles of the town,
And let the wildwood mend the weary heart,
When sun-kissed twilight wears her purple gown,
And worldly wisdom falls from us apart.
A breath of pine, a breath of quiet earth,
In nature’s arms, the spirit finds rebirth.

Caught Him I'M Not Insane Pt3

Hey guys ,you remember when I suffered that pain
Of been called Mad and accused of been Insane?
I think I found this person, I may know who could it be
Yes! I caught the little sod, he was following me

All this time he’s been aping everything that I do
I told my lawyers and they are ready to sue
He wears the same clothes and drives the same car
He even told other people we have the same mother

I thought to myself, its time to reveal this person
But when I drew close to him the reality began to worsen.
We came eye to eye and he stared at me
Then said “Hi please to meet you I’m your split personality”

Premium Member Sojourn

Come to these shores
Dwell and explore


See how time tells
Glimpse soul that dwells


Dance of pure nerves
As love now serves


In a sure light
Bold cause put right


Love wears a face
Joy knows sweet grace


Touch in clear tense
Knows willing sense


Thrill as joy spins
Waves deep within


Wit fashions fest
Zest flavours quest


Wise ways work well
Yes soul now spells


A play to cast
Right here at last


Journey with grace
Sparks as waves trace


Time to feel jazz
Space in deep nest


Know sojourn child
Meek love styles wild


Pique fond esteem
Love mingles dream

Shiver

In the heart of winter's embrace,
Where the world wears a frosty lace,
A shiver dances through the air,
A whisper of cold beyond compare.

The trees stand bare, their leaves long shed,
Their branches etched in icy thread,
A shiver courses through their veins,
As Jack Frost weaves his crystalline chains.

The sun, a pale and distant eye,
Casting shadows long and shy,
Its golden rays too weak to fight,
The creeping chill of the advancing night.

The ground, a canvas painted white,
Crunching beneath the feeble light,
A shiver wraps the earth in sleep,
In its silent, frozen, tranquil deep.

Beneath the moon's ethereal glow,
The world lies still, in silent show,
A shiver in the hushed expanse,
A delicate, ethereal dance.

The wind, a sculptor with a biting chisel,
Carves out shapes in the frozen mistle,
A shiver follows in its wake,
A trembling breath the landscape quakes.

In the quiet, hearts beat warm,
Seeking solace from the storm,
A shiver shared in close embrace,
A moment's peace in a cold world's grace.

So let the shiver come and go,
For it is part of the ebb and flow,
Of life's grand tapestry, woven tight,
With threads of cold and slivers of light.

DREAMY SKY

[Intro]
I take not one, but two—
Cassidy pens all I see.
His quill carves stars into drifting steam,
Spilling my thoughts like melted tea.

He’s writing now, as the train rolls in—
Steam like ghosts against my skin.
The platform hums with names I’ve lost,
And my mind derails without a cost.

[Verse 1]
Steam draws elegies on mirrored breath,
Faces drip like incense in death.
I stir the firmament with a tarnished spoon,
Summon the howl of a long-dead moon.

Cassidy watches from the porcelain sill,
His pen still dancing, deathly still.
He traps each thought before it flies—
And folds them under dreaming skies.

[Chorus]
We’re simmering in the man soup, friend,
Where silence and sinew twist and bend.
Celestial onions begin to weep,
In pots where buried spirits sleep.

[Verse 2]
The butcher wears a crown of flies,
The carrot hums old lullabies.
A prophet peeled like sacred root
Pours gospel steam through Cassidy’s flute.

Galaxies swirl in marrow streams,
Dissolving slow into lucid dreams.
Salted with cries never born to try—
Scribed in steam beneath a dreamy sky.

[Bridge]
Don’t stir the void... it bites back.
Let it curdle... let it crack.
A hand ascends through boiling foam—
Not waving... just... stirring home.

[Chorus]
We’re melting in the man soup, love,
Seasoned with ash from stars above.
Taste buds bloom in violet hue,
While Cassidy writes what I never knew.

[Outro]
Spooned from wombs and poured through fate,
Garnished with the hands of late.
Drink it down, O trembling eye—
A mouthful of the dreamy sky.

The soup has made me comfortably numb...
No edges left, no place to run.
My name dissolves in seasoned foam—
And Cassidy writes: "he won’t come home."

Premium Member Next Christmas It Will Be So So Different

Another Christmas day is finally here
The very thought fills me with such fear
I have to try and control my old Aunty Mable
Once she hits the gin she gets very unstable

Uncle Arthur rushes in and opens the sherry
then sups half the bottle and gets really merry
He begins to sing carols at the top of his voice
I put up with the din… I don’t have much choice!

The last to arrive are old Gladys and Bert
Bert always wears his distasteful Santa shirt
Gladys walks through the door and starts to moan
I wish Bert would leave the old cow at home!

She whines from the moment she removes her coat
And heads for the sofa and grabs the remote
Demanding she has her dinner on her knee -
There’s some crap on the TV that she wants to see

I politely tell Gladys the dinner table is set
And the film will be repeated of that you can bet
So she sits at the table and picks at her starter
then moans very loudly to poor Uncle Arthur

The table’s soon laden with wonderful food
But Gladys is seething, she’s so blinking rude
She says the turkey’s tasteless and it's bone dry
So I pass her the gravy and I try not to cry

Bert finishes the bowl of chestnuts and sprouts
He’ll be passing foul wind in copious amounts
After rich figgy pud he crams in six mince pies …
It’s no wonder he’s gross with huge wobbly thighs

They descend on me each and every year
And eat all my food my wine and my beer
Then we open the gifts that lie under the tree
As per usual they bring just one present for me

Gladys has knitted me a horrendous jumper
it's two sizes too large, I just want to thump her
I dutifully put in on and I feign my delight …
but it will be in the rubbish bin later tonight!

At three we watch The Queen on the telly
Bert’s farting begins; the room gets so smelly
Within minute’s they’re snoring away in their chair
I retreat to the kitchen and silently swear

By the time they wake up all the dishes are done
The doorbell rings; thank god their taxi has come!
This is the LAST time they'll take advantage of me …
Cos I've booked a yule cruise on the Caribbean sea!
