Nascent Poems - Poems about Nascent

Too nascent to be called seasoned

I've been meaning to write for a long time. 
but sometimes 
my words willingly remain hostage 
in my heart. 
Not wanting to be heard.
Covered and crumpled.
I cannot sink in 
I am 18.
it's frightening,
Getting old
my mind is somewhere between
the land and the sky, 
wishing to fly, 
but fears the fall.
what if I am longing for the

My jubilant latent, nascent poetic tribute to black history month

My jubilant latent, nascent poetic tribute to black history month

Which acknowledgement ought to be year round,
similar to altruistic, humanistic, and philanthropic
unconditional acceptance and respect
crafted with the following words 
mostly written January 23rd, 2023,
cuz I, (a sexagenarian married Caucasian male)
get goosebumps when learning
about individuals, (whose skin color
spans the color spectrum)
contributed invaluable positive deeds
(not necessarily done dirt

Napoleon's Nascent Love For Josephine

Give me a smile, that I may build on your assurance,
Kiss me, that I may have to thy kind heart entrance,
Love me less, and see how tumultuous life could be,
Give thy command, and see my loyalty to thee.

In thine absence, mine heart cannot from thee depart;
A moment's departure would rend my world apart.
I recall that

Premium MemberNascent Chance

the random residue of sunken shadows

retrieves an image of the light gone by

an effigy ashen faced and smouldering

glows tenderly upon the silhouette of time


yet another curve ball of molten assertion

distorts impressions on the transient mold

pinnacles opine to differ from ground zero

tapestries’ memories fragment figments

of imagination attempt to reassemble

the waning half-moon of false composure


serrated edges compress

Nascent Warmth

Wrapped in a bubbling liquid sack I grew,
zero vision for my tiny eyes hazel blue,
all I'd seen-- a dark floating tube to breathe,
I heard muffled voices again beginning to seethe.

Calmed by a gentle touch of love on stormy nights,
I awaited to find it the day I'd step into lights.
Ah! Pulled out into blinding white flashing

Oh throw off now the virus swarms
This too shall pass like a wild storm
Different ways of lifestyle forms
In oneness humans will conform
Look for emerging novel norms
Hopefully help experts perform
Kindness touches all that adorns

N - Neighbors

Navigating nervously through our natural neighborhood, our native nest away from the noise and neon nightlights
No need for the numerous noxious normality's named nectars of necessity
Neurotic nightmares of numbers and names; knickknacks, nukes, and narrow-minded ways
Nauseating and never-ending
Noble is the nomad; nimble through the netting with no need for its negativity
A new narration away from

Premium MemberYet I Stayed, Wooed By Nascent Azure Sky

Cheerily blew ocean breeze in beach-park
Till fiery tides climbed bouncing giant rock
Spurred on by the churning clouds hosting dark
As hazy winds ravaged paths on your walk
Rattling lashing gust where fishing boats dock.
Stranger were we, till blinding storm hit blast
Pouring pelting rain on our budding talk,
Waddling needlessly in each other's past--
Alas, like summer rain, our amour

Premium MemberThe Nascent Storm

Jade scythes
of areca fronds
slice slate air;
Medusa's snakes writhe.
Pewter arrows pierce
my garden.
I sit beneath an eave
pondering
the nascent storm.
Geraniums cloister
like vestal butterflies
in darkening loam
as a multitude
of emerald tufts
bend on the fleeing lawn.

this just one example of many peoples
   UNFAIRLY subjected
to subservience and exempt
   from enjoying the fruits of their labor.

Nascent Observations


Altered perceptions
filtering through your mind 
				     drip   ...   drip   ...   drip
Faulty neural connections
causes a skewered point-of-view
Fatalistic, telescopic lens
in which you now see the world through
Everything not right like it should be,
nothing observed is as it will be
One day the blind will see,
and those
