Premium Member Rosalind and Orlando

Orlando has written a lot of love poetry.
Written on leaflets, they have been placed on every tree. 
Ubiquitous in the Arden woods, they are easy to see.
Orlando expresses his love for Rosalind freely.
His wording is not good, and his rhymes are lousy.

Rosalind now roams these woods, but is not alone.
Joining her are cousin Alena and the fool named Touchstone.
However, Rosalind's identity you will not recognize.
She is now called Ganymede, and is a man in disguise.
Since you defeated Charles the wrestler, she's been in love with you.
A reuniting with Rosalind is just about due.

Based on the play "As You Like It" by William Shakespeare

NOISE OF FAME

Tuning the radio
Everyone stay tuned
Constant drawing attention
Nothing but void, empty sounds
Yelling words without reasoning

Some times what you see can be deceiving
An attacker is a hater 
Leaving the victim in distress


Talk! Talk!! Talk!!!
Talkative, feed the brain 
Before you open your mouth
Saying things unaware of, cost a lot

Story! Story!! Story!!!
Story-line, how the things goes
A lion showing love, is still a lion


Awareness your acts, my reaction
Aware that you need attention
Without detection, dilute facts

Spiting on the less, thy prey
Portraying to be their KING
Self gratification over all

The songs tuned, while radioing
Came face to face with a lion
Lion ruining into skeeter

Unaware of reaping others Lion's nature
Not unknowing some lion are breeds of love
Others furiously, relentlessly

Wrath unbearable, roared the lions
Hunting the hunters for it's story
Hypocrisy he posses, ignorant followers

Times changes all but never changes
From ages to ages, stage by stage
Ranges war, hunters can't wedge

Coming face to face, multiple lions
Right in the dark, at the night he birthed
Feeding his prey, Bulling and blackmailing
Even amidst the silence of a lion. 


Claiming to be the king of the kingdom
When the next of kin, is worthy and ready
How long do this endure, roaring furiously 

A hunted lion, by the packs of hyenas
Unaware of another lions, within thy territory
What a history, about to emerged

For it's the lion's feasts, wording weapons
With pen filling every void, noises
From the packs of dogs, Don't leads
They back and follow with love


Unaware of the destruction, endangering lives
Embarking on, mission impossible, penned 
Assassinating the lion right at it's den

But they never find a lion, rather a monkey
To dance with in the dark, nuisance the agendas
Wake up, justice is here... The lions don't bark
I roar knowledge, dedication to liberate.

Premium Member A Few Famous Men Named Robert

At birth, “Robert” was the name I was given.
It was the same in the case of my father.
It was also the name of my great-grandfather.
I was too young to do anything about it then.

There have been many famous men given that name.
It is one of the most common names on the earth.
Many of those males have proven their worth.
Lots of them have gone on to fortune and fame.

I will have to give you readers something to read.
Please don’t ask me how the name came to be.
Here are a few Roberts famous in history.
I will give you some examples if that’s what you need.

Robert the Bruce lived in the fourteenth century.
The nation of Scotland would be his realm.
He proved to be a powerful king at the helm;
until he was laid to rest at Dumfermline Abbey.

This famous writer also came from Scotland.
Robert Louis Stevenson lived in the nineteenth century.
He was a prolific author of novels and poetry.
Among his works are “Kidnapped” and “Treasure Island”.

A famous general led the armies of the Confederacy.
In a losing cause, he was a hero of the war.
To describe this West Point graduate, need I say more?
This legendary warrior was named Robert E. Lee.

Here’s a contemporary name many of you should know.
In “The Godfather Part II”, he played young Vito Corleone.
“Raging Bull” would be another great movie.
This fine actor’s name is Robert DeNiro.

Well, that is about all I have to say.
Are those a few good examples I gave here?
I hope I have made my wording quite clear.
I think that is enough for all of you today.

Mine Penned Umbrage Metes Rebuttal

I apologize at any unintentional
     flagitious, egregious,
     deleterious et cetera and
atrocious (asper wording),
     which accidental faux pas
     toward an allpoetry participant
     named skypriceireland, who brand
did me with

     crookedly unflattering feedback,
     and practically demand
did, an explanation,
     which hoop fully
     clarifies intended feedback,
     thus aye expand
utmost sincerity and perceives
     how my anger got fanned

when purposeful intent grand
lee and roundly surmising
     if the Jesse (un-named child) referenced
     in the poem played

     an influential invisible hand
as the whims of children
     can be so inventive
     absent any parental oversight
     to inveigle being baited
     from kiddie make believe island

a desired outcome, rather
     exclaim with com manned
double delight at such un-planned
Hi Yo Silver braying ejaculation,
     thus upon this
     expostulation I stand.


Premium Member Actions Speak Louder Than Words

Actions please us deeper than just words-
though teasers talk up promises so made
with words that sound like songs of pretty birds;
the music's sweet, but sours when pledges fade.

Words flow smoothly, soothing heart and mind
with hopeful thoughts that all too soon escape.
These words that tease are truly not inclined
to fill those hopes that never will take shape.

Actions do please deeper- words just tease
to simply stoke a fire that's never lit.
Just empty words for vows that float away-
from shallow talkers who will not commit.

So disappointed when words stand alone-
that only tease with promises not met-
to then accept the letdown we bemoan
by sham neglect- the sad result we get.

Note:
The origin of this phrase in its earliest known 
appearance (with the exact wording it has today)
is in a work called the Melancholy State of Province,
1736: “Actions speak louder than words and are 
more to be regarded.”
However, the idea of this phrase goes back even 
further. For example, Michel de Montaigne, who 
lived during the 1500s, expressed the following 
in one of the essays he wrote:
“Saying is a different thing from doing.”

Premium Member Soup Compared to Poetry Soup

Summertime, summertime
And homemade vegetable soup
This is no place for fruity loops
Only foods from the garden that rhyme

Oh! Give us soup in the summertime
One writes tomatoes, another squash
Another corn with peppers by gosh
End with dessert a pie from lime

Summertime, summertime
Oh! Summertime
Shoestring budget on a dime
Carrots, potatoes, butter beans prime

Awesome soups, mighty fine
Cut some okra, dream a dream
Snap a few beans then just steam
Cook some cornbread, make a design

In that soup mixture, have some verse
Maybe a sonnet, where love comes first
A stormy day Haiku, and rain clouds burst
Maybe a clerihew somewhat terse

Maybe precise wording, in every line
Just the right noun, verb, or conjunction
To have it just blend in a junction
On soup write, then forever to it consign

Premium Member Thoughts Upon My Poetry Journey

Well this has been a marathon
poetically speaking so much to attain
many hurdles have been jumped over
wording things together always to sustain

This has been such an experience
giving me such a pleasant desire
so that I love to read poetry
really good penning that I never tire

As well as reading I've learned to write
finding it a great source of peace
taking away many stressful nerves
bringing calm wish never to cease

This indeed is an awesome blessing
to receive many messages so kind
the lovely folk here poetically signed
so inspiring bringing much pressing

My future here lies in the heavens
having written on subjects of all kinds
maybe my ink is down to its last drop
bowing with thanks to all with I've dined

For the Heck of It

3/9/15

He was unable to go far
Without any sonar
While below stars
He looked up and said "Hello Mars"
As he held onto a crowbar
While walking past a sign that said mopar
He knew that everybody had their own scars

After a change in rhetoric
He would never quit
For the heck of it
After he got a better grip
During every trek and trip
No matter how harshly the weather hit

In this planet
He was thankful for the wisdom granted
And moved systematic
As he turned on every single switch of static
From a room inside a hidden attic
He had a sudden vision which was graphic

It was disturbing
But the first thing
He did was change his wording
Then he continued searching
And working
As an earthling
With efforts focused on conserving
Because it was sterling

Difficult to Find

12/13/23



Secrets still buried
Stories in the wind got carried
Historical accounts occasionally varied
The truth can be sad and scary
We've barely
Discovered much so spare me
The same can be said for things happening fairly
Since the dawn of time it occurred rarely


Causes with a dark past humans still worshipping
The cauldron folks continue stirring
Waters people are murking
So much unknown, instead of starting to worry
I try to find answers but it can't be done in a hurry
Somewhat disturbing 
And blood curdling
Could it be water that caused such a shape and curving?
This planet twirling at 1000 mph constantly whirling
Every night tossing and turning
I was hurting
My vision sometimes blurring
Minimal ground I've been traversing
This weed I'm endlessly burning
Toward a fast death I'm hurling
It's difficult to find the right wording
The cycle still circling
The truth is emerging
And surfacing
Energy dispersing
Or combining and converting
Then it starts surging
To some it's unnerving
During my time on Earth I'm searching
No matter if others are deterring
I'm still unearthing
Sometimes smirking
Nearby curbing
I'm determining
It can never be found by purchasing
It's concerning
For so long people have been serving
Evil always lurking
Showing no mercy
I'm constantly learning
During this journey
No adjourning
The hands of time turning
There's endless controversy
That's occurring
It's not always working
Such concepts use to irk me
(Birds sing above Earthlings)  or  (birdies chirping above earthlings)
It briefly takes the mind off the worst things
Yet I still feel like cursing
Toward no destination I've been surfing
Mind all over the place still swerving
For more I'm yearning
Something inside churning
A fool splurging
Yet again swirling down the drain go my earnings
I still can't get it right even after rehearsing
What a joke feeling like a ghost the recipient of shirking
How am I already not on a gurney?
