Premium Member Poetic

Thought frames deeper flow:
Slots what wordplay shows.


Feel the surge attend:
Ink flow moves my pen.


Poise in succinct writes:
Voice how feelings cite.


Sense prompts lyric verse:
Jazz of fine outburst.


Feel the lavish touch:
As words grapple much.


Glimpses on the way:
Usher rhymes this day.


Scent of floral tints:
Stray memory mints.


Fond impulse now speaks:
Feeling words urge peaks.


Rise and fall and spice:
Verse rhythm can splice.


The gap silence curls:
Speeds waves that unfurl.


Cadence in full swing:
Invokes dance that flings.


Writes upon a time:
Emerge in plain chimes.


Touch of ecstasy:
Sparkle zest I see.

Premium Member The Resurrection of Writing a New Book


"The Resurrection of Writing a New Book" 

Insular, a new world begins
from the inside it serves its Saviour
reconnaissance is the betrayor 
incesscent it speaks non-stop
in cloudy roadmaps it stomps
unstoppable 
the regiments read on
instructions they march 
unhindered reviewers across 
what is seen on a tethered cross 
translation cuts
it throws its shining arsenal almighty
from the crowned heart 
where the sharp thorns bloom 
it writes its illuminescent stories
across sorry lips that try to speak outwardly
the synopisis is parched
the mind with arms outstretched
looks upwards for heavenly relief
upon the rolling hard edges 
of burning Wormwood
where forgiveness is peaced
the measure of compassion 
is largely pierced 
confessions are heard and lost 
on the brevity of a dead end
and that is how the Light gets in
dreams like this 
are the resurrection 
for writing a new book

the new exit strategy
before it is too late

dreams like this
are the resurrection 
for writing a new book

before it is too late
dear Poet of The Day


Candide Diderot. ‘25

Now where does this Highlander start
To thank those commenter's, present and past
So many read and absorbed
Their kindness to me always lasts

Soap-Song

if the sinking-of-boat …ice-cream by name 
be deducted from the swept-off-in-flood … by name roll no 31 
then would the wings of the comics 
cease to exist 

what says the uninterrupted sound of water-falling 
from the stomach of the moon
 
what writes the pus and blood 
what writes the fuming-hot rice 

the creepers and the herbs grow continuously 
in the insomniac bath-tub 

the sounds of the horse-hoof floated by the river 
used to change the velocity of its clothes 
both in the morning and evening 

the birds from the cornice go to school 
by dip-swimming 

it may come one day when the fishes 
become very angry and in the tale of the sweet-meat 
the potter will destroy the jointly-built bee-hive 

then all hurricane would be habituated to dinner 
sans saliva 

then there would be no such morning-walk 
in the body of the trees
from which such a bore could be found out
through which an elderly saral may fly 
into the blue translation of a squirrel
 
the magnetic field of the orange-pulp 
and the productivity of the open window
reside in the same locality 

if their frequency be touched   

then the the antenna of the mermaids 
speared with sleeping-oil 
may be injured

by burnings their eyes 
the crow-birds knocks at
in the soap-foams 
produced by the afternoon 
 
the pond with a jumping deer 
wants to make bite  

it is not known by this way
when a white hyphen 
sticks to the palate of the shirt 

now put off all the whispers 
and let it be talked on the will-paper of the bees 

why the pages from the honourable ash-trays 
be excluded 

those bunch of waters 
that come out from the churning of the anises 
and the jumps born of their semen
also make friends with the group-photos 

now let this other night sends its best wishes 
to the future candles 
through a cell-phone

A Writers Life

A WRITERS LIFE
 There is on Facebook pictures of dead film stars
 like Elisabeth Taylor, who was born in London 
and photos of her childhood. 
I don´t really care about this. We should remember her
as a great actress, see her movies and shut up.
Then we have Ernest Hemingway, who is one of me
 favourite writers, alas, he often appears in the picture 
of his life, not so much about his writing, more about
his adventures, which I do not care to read about.
Dos Passos, another great writer, lived a smaller amount
of daring-do, but he surpassed Hemingway in his  
say, The Bridge over San Louis Ray”, not to forget 
John Steinbeck, Theodore Dreiser and William Faulkner.
I like American writes, pre-word processor, 
and now they are going mad producing toms of too many words.
The thing is this. I don´t want to know about their childhood.

Maybe Someday

There was a time when i  believed i could be the best dj ever
Then a professor says you have no voice for radio
There was a time when i could be the best poet ever
 There was a time when words where fake and staged
The plan is not realistic to make money on a writers dream
To find the words to create the world you wish to portray
I write what i write with in 20 minutes
The words just flow i don't second guess
I don't worry about punctuation
I make words work that should not work together
I take this gift and change someones life
I am not the greatest of all time
I am not the master of poetic thought
I am just i man who writes to cope
I want you to read i want you to feel
I want you to see you could do this too
But i am no expert  i am just a dreamer who dreams
Maybe someday they will know my name.

Design speaks well
As touch now tells


Beauty feels nice
Feisty sweet spice


Fond visual flow
In lovely show


Smart and sleek looks
Soft touch now books


Easy and smart
Ideas move heart


So much to say
Apps in full play


Joy seeds happy
Work feels lively


In a sure trance
Warm fingers dance


Verse lines now groove
Rhymes and thoughts move


Here as I write
Words sparkle cites


Sounds in full boom
As music blooms


Rich rapture lifts
Micro Tale gifts


My journey quest
Greets writes of fest


Here as I sit
Seize vibrant wit

A touch that grows

Her First Diamond Sparkled Her Seconds Gonna Shine

Id like to think what she writes
Is somehow meant for me
The notes she posts in public
Are secrets only I can see

Is it new beginnings 
That we seek to find
Or proof that fate can sometimes wait
For when the time is right

Her first diamond sparkled 
Her second’s gonna shine
The gifts that we’re both grateful for
Are part of its design 

Thru the years we’ve held on
In each other we confide 
Her first diamond sparkled 
Her second’s gonna shine 

Looking back on the day
When we... became friends 
Is now a stark reminder 
Of how I hope we end

We can’t replace a lost embrace
But I’ll be damned if I won’t try
May our journey end
With her.. by my side

Her first diamond sparkled 
Her second’s gonna shine
The gifts that were both grateful for
Are part of its design 

Thru the years we’ve held on
In each other we confide
Her first diamond sparkled 
Her second’s gonna shine

Here I am to speak again
What lays so heavy on my mind 
Her first diamond sparkled 
But her second’s gonna shine

Her first diamond sparkled 
But her second’s gonna shine

Premium Member Now Once Again

Now once again we meet in time,
Mimes mimic plain the muse that rhymes.


Chimes sweetly strain to tell of fate,
Rhymes usher rain in mellow state.


Here by the way of placid calm,
A brand new day speaks soothing balm.


Now once again the course is set,
Writes utter plain the present bet.


Chimes tell of peace that flavours craze,
Words in crisp ease now sparkle daze.


Here works enchant the way of voice,
Art once begun can fashion poise.


Now once again the mellow mood,
Words cast in pain forge mellow good.


Mimes in verse rhyme can posture well,
Time collects chimes just as words dwell.


Here on the way to charming lift,
Seize thus this day to grow your gift.


Now once again the music streams,
Of truth laid plain that sifts each dream.


Time and space meet the soul in quest,
Soul and heart greet body-mind fest.

Premium Member When You Are In Love


When you are in love

When you captured my sight I heard a song
Evoking a symphony of feelings quite strong
As cadence of quest reached deep in my heart
Urging in your embrace for the music to start.

We exchanged affection without a spoken word
Falling in love imminently as emotions stirred,
When rhythm of hearts made a passionate claim
As your mature frame seduced my budding flame.

Though you warned me with an adorable plea
I never considered age when I set myself free,
For you adorned me with a grace of sapience
Comforting in intellect derived from experience.

And you bestowed upon me a life of relevance
Ornate in the virtues of brilliant significance,
Treating me like a queen of ardent dream,
Adoring me as if I'm the source of your gleam.

When we encountered a hint of dissonance
You rallied to my aid to console my innocence,
As maven hands ably shaped our relationship
Reveling how amicably you steered our ship.

First time we met, I knew we were meant to be,
Since then it has been a life full of joyous spree,
For age doesn't matter when love writes the lyric
As passion resonates sound of angelic music.
