Masterstrokes Poems | Examples


Oi Oi Hoi Polloi

All aboard the bizarre Farage barge.. 

Unless of course you are from abroad..
.
Narcissist catalyst.. old school fraud..discord twist..

Can't resist.. staging the raging red mist.. 

Fist of Mob rule tryst does persist..  


Depraved raves..insist..craved faves..

Won't save slaves & knaves..

Hellbent they are sent..

To graves under the waves…

Foolish votes for ghoulish gloats..

Seedier media leaders lying..

Defying the dying..


Folks crying..ghastly ghostly boats..

Crude jokes delude..lewd masterstrokes denude..

Corporate rascal castle debacle floats..

On dank murky murderous moats..

Scuffles.. muffles ruffles & kerfuffles

Pokes & provokes just for bank notes..


The ubiquity of inequity

This poem or tome..

Every face…race should be.

Free to roam..

In this place..

We all call home..

Premium MemberLife’s Beginnings

Centuries of creations,
a bravura of celestial fireworks,
masterstrokes exploited,
tides of events vying between 
gelid cold or searing hot.
Mountains grew, valleys sunk
oceans divided and storms struck.
Dust, sand, dunes, soil, decomposition.
Then came life!
All was controlled and peaceful,
for God created all things good.
Alas, it was the calm before the storm, 
for after man was born
all hell broke loose
And deadly fireworks never ceased.

Premium MemberTwilight Fades Softly


Twilight fades slowly
with masterstrokes of indigo,
persimmon and periwinkle pastel hues.

Crescent moon smiles in amber,
as pearls decorate sky.
Twilight fades slowly.

Owls rotate heads,
as nocturnal hoots softly echo
with masterstrokes of indigo.

Predators hunt prey,
until dawn emerges in
persimmon and periwinkle pastel hues.

Premium MemberMy Journey through Time and Space

When the last glow of daylight is seen
and the first shades of the night begin
the merging moment melts
and is tethered to Twilight's subtle gleam
where my mind is interlaced,
   in sentimental thoughts
wrapped by twilight
I'm aware of windblown wildflowers
and weeping birdsongs
   that cry for the end of the day
as night immerses the last flickering light
from the red threads of the horizon
where the sunset's final spark vanishes
and the first star of the night shines
in the darkened region of the sky
   like a point of light
that welcomes the moon as it rises
   in its majestic glow
offering shades and silhouettes
   across the landscape
where my eyes gaze at floating luminous fireflies
   that dance before me
beneath the dark-hued clouds that hide the moon
before parting allowing its radiate glow
   to wash over me
in a timeless mesmerizing magical moment
of masterstrokes painted by Nature
that hangs before my eyes on its earthly canvas
   of monumental proportions
that mirror the sensitivity of my soul

Brushing such as these, millennial stars!?

Daeothisis, turning gently pensives kaleidoscope in

Jurisdictions palette of hand....

Sine qua nons, plus quam perfectums

Land of the Living

Everything seems fresh 
in the land of the living now,
The bright lemon sun pours 
on the rolling fields,
Rays of liquid gold 
that stream out of the blue,
The clarity of babbling brooks 
that trickle gently through,
The masterstrokes of springtime, 
nature’s canvas revealed.
Vivid paint of cosmic order 
slashing bold and clearly drawn,
A breathing, living artwork 
digitally enhanced,
By the sharpest neo-realism 
set beneath the skies,
A tapestry of colour 
spread before my newborn eyes,   
As I watch and breathe creation, 
by wonderment entranced.
