Premium Member Fading Photographs
The most honored woman of her place; I’m not fortunate enough to see her face! She is none other than my loving mother; People say, one can’t find like her another! I know not, what mother’s love is all about! Does God have any sense? I always doubt! The lady in the photograph, I was taught, Was my mother! Oh, a great...

Premium Member Beauty Parading Feathers
she wears feathers better than a peacock More of them than a revered Apache chief Feeling their strength, understanding they have flown Their ancestry coaxes her to shine her light She parades their beauty down the catwalk Showing them off, as they show her off. Other models gawk, appreciating her designs Where everything is moving and fluttering...

Premium Member Love Is Parading Around On the Stove

Police Corps
P-arading at ceremonies, protecting and preventing conflicts and violence O-fficiating official outings and offering guides and shields L-anguishing your own at any point of call I-nvestigating initials of the inevitable crimes and dooms C-onfident to move to meet flaming fuse and fights E-xpectations too huge to meet …’where were the police?’ C-rimes deter your presence in humility and respect O-bvious are the...

Parading Blue
Tides, they arise overshore along with fears, they reverse overboard her cloaks, they float in their eternal blue with her flawless gulf carried out through. Those emerald hairs, they dance along as her salty breath , they slap across chords escaping through their entangled twines that symphony, they engulf my senses. Those ships, they riding on her back never was sure about ...

Parading the Unkempt
Countless in our days Of lives seize with easy. Alas! Guns off fashion For many of them Fathoms its symptoms. Enters the Polished clean hands Reddish with stabbing , Answers they have not.
