Premium Member The waves gently caress my feet, leaving traces of sand as they retreat
The waves gently caress my feet, leaving traces of sand as they retreat, A weight presses on my heart, leaving me still, bound to memories, For I still see you beside me, as if you never left this place, The sunset by the waves reflects the tremor in my heart, reminding me of you, Here, buried in the sand,...

Premium Member Castles in the Sky
When life’s been pillaged of calm I yearn for welcome release Somewhere far beyond life’s qualms To know solace and deep peace I build castles in the sky Where I retreat now and then I build castles in the sky But I never move in I go there to think and pray Where no one can breach a thought A safe place to steal away And...

Idyllic Retreat
In this charming retreat, the silence of nature and hills talk to me, whispers of forgotten tales in the breeze, of hidden secrets of times bygone, an era of luxury and grandeur, where every stone holds a story untold. In the marble statues and king-size portraits, etched in elegance, they gaze through time, their faces frozen in an eternal grace, gripping the pulse of...

Premium Member Sweet Southern Retreat
‘I found an explosive quill down on the streets of New Orleans.’ It’s fun to share who I am and also learn from other writers. There was a discussion on the idea to let yourself get lost inside of another world. I made sure to speak a reminder of the inner child. The one who wasn’t...

Premium Member Write Laugh Retreat
Now together we can all retreat, and try a brand new poetic style; I’m so ready to learn and compete. Exploring New Orleans Canal street I want to sit with the Muse a while; Now together we can all retreat. Hoping the kitties have inky feet, my nickname resembles logophile; I’m so ready to learn and compete. Cannot wait to feel the inspired heat, whether...

Corners
There’s a corner of eternity where I’ve built a simple home. A place that I can go to when I want to be alone. A place where winds of time and space glide gently through the air. A place each time I leave, I’m longing, wishing I were there. We deal with many things in life, so much that...

A retreat that was not
Free for all were train reserved seats, In hotel nor a well-served room, Elsewhere a crowd that always greets Us, and we returned to resume Our fate from the date left in wait, But of course, the retreat was great. ________________________ Happenings |06.11.2024|vacation Poet’s note: The festival of light, Diwali, was just over. And as is the custom, many families going on...

Silent Atlas
It's 5:30 AM, sky bruised and quiet, And he’s there at my feet, my loyal companion, Eyes bright, no judgment, just need. Out we go, one steady step, then another, Field sprawled wide, we chase the edges of dawn. Back home, the soft hum of her breathing, Kids' backpacks lined, the day pulls at me Like a string too tight, ready to...

I do not know what's on your mind I cannot ask, we are confined To silence You maybe want to share and chat And tell your thoughts Of this and that So locked we are in soundless pose Held secrets of our lone repose Imagine we could read each thought Communicate while saying naught We may become just silent friends Before the day of silence ends And...

Retreat in the Woods
Awaken with the break of a tangerine dawn bathing you in its Crimson sacredness ! Meditate with the majestic Pine trees Towering the skies Transcending the temporal ! Dance among the wild poppies and lupines Reveling in your freedom and aliveness! Like Robins and Jays Singing Life's joyous melodies Live with abandon, moment to moment ! Blend...

Aqua sky and scattered clouds, with thriving palm trees growing: a secluded, solitary tropical retreat, where waves are ever flowing; tranquility green and blue saturated. ...

Premium Member Rock Chapel
Take the key Loop it round your wrist Stroll outside Let hope persist Up the hill Where cattle graze Electric fence To manage strays Follow grass That bows and beckons Squeaky gate Rusty latch Up the hillock Breath to catch Steep and winding Knees that strain Sensing stillness Tensions drain Atop the mound A stoney chapel With wooden door And lock to grapple But soon inside The gorgeous light Stained in colour Mute, yet bright A chair to sit As eyes adjust.. A...

Premium Member When the final curtain softly descends, and the echoes of my days retreat
When the final curtain softly descends, and the echoes of my days retreat, I want to whisper to the wind that all my life, I was a bride betrothed to amazement, In the silent embrace of dawn's first light and the whispered secrets of twilight. I was the bridegroom, holding the world in my eager arms, feeling its...
