Rare Poems

Rare are bucks loud that bang

What all likes lets, such a luck’s rare,
Plugs all panic, such a pluck’s rare,
Rare are bucks that give loudest bang,
Cool with lake’s muck, such a duck’s rare.

Premium MemberI treat love as a rare art, a bold banner fluttering in the wind

I treat love as a rare art, a bold banner fluttering in the wind,
Only those who have fallen off the map of the world, the barefoot kings of the sky, are worthy,
Weavers of warm words, who weave webs of dreams and pure hopes,
Where girls come to immerse themselves in the boundless spring of poetry.
Then they

Beautifully Unplanned

When an ordinary day becomes the unexpected,
The hours turn into a rush, and get connected.
I turned my head to find who stood there,
Our eyes met—something rare

I didn’t give anything that hinted at chaos,
Didn’t give a little smile, just raised my eyebrows.
Ignoring someone, shaking my head—
Not now, I’m done being bled.

But you’re the one giving me

Rare Bird

'It takes one to know one', so they do state,
but that won't take you far,
as we're never told exactly who these 'they' are.
'It's not what you know, it's who you know',
so the saying goes,
but the devil is in the details,
and I say, 'It's what you know about whom you know,'
which really goes to show,
whomsoever holds

Premium MemberRare Bird

In hindsight I can note a master stroke
A revelation from somebody out there
My soul’s salvation could have been a joke
A sad man’s joke, that anyone can share
That’s why it looks so truthful, this old tale
As if our lives were planned on reasonable grounds
But anyway, you see that luck prevails
And luck’s a rare bird, it never

WITH HER RARE FLYING WINGS

Desiring to soar,
She waved her sage rainbow wings;
Peacocking the yard:-
She faked a hopscotching flight,
Strutting her well-winged buttocks.

Premium MemberRare Is A Star's Luster

Into a luscious and darkened wood
heading home,I gaze above a lea,
Suddenly I'm not where I should be
as clouds enthrall , my senses allured!

A thousand stars blazing everywhere,
over a mantle of softest pink.
Yet each of them differs... in its blink;
Flaunting its own luster in the air.

One twinkle reflects of dreams quite free;
another flicks umbra, sad 'though

Premium MemberBeautiful, Rare, Valuable Gemstones

Black opal is the rarest and most valuable opal for distinctive vibrant
“play-of-color”, as the dark body tone of the stone enhances the
beautiful and brilliant colors of blues, greens, yellows, oranges and
fiery reds. It is an exceptional opal that can rival or surpass diamonds.

Blue paraiba tourmaline is rare and valued for unique, electric color,

I can feel my heart now

trying my best 
to compartmentalize
these feelings 
that are quite novel
in company of or separated from
an individual  
who unknowingly energetically
activated something within me
unshakable but sweet

RARE

I'm listening 
As she was singing 
A song so healing 
Taking away all traumas 
She's a healer and a redeemer.

Her voice 
So lovely 
A rare tune
Without auto tuning 
She gives 
Absolute melodies.

Rhythm like never 
So rare
Very harmonizing 
Giving me 
Butterflies in my Stomach.

CRAZY WORLD

So many Societal flaws 
He's so flawless 
Always doing what's right 
Maintaining 
His ancestral lineage.

So many weaknesses 
He's so strong 
Always standing firm
Striving 
To liberate all from their inexperience.

So many opportunities 
He was given none
But, never hated
Neither did he switched 
He's one of a kind
Very rare and irreplaceable.

True friend, like jewel, precious and rare,
Everlasting blessings guides,
 Accept true love at our sides,
Devoted to leading to divine,
Founded great faith, yours and mine,
Acknowledge each human race,
Steady path, His immortal face,
Trust God's bridge to mortal grace.
