Shields Poems

Blue Dogs and Parchment Shields

sniff out the garish lights
loud music and drunken discussions
enter the party uninvited 
conceive uneasiness and instant disdain
you try to dance with strangers
who quickly slide away.
somewhere in the intercourse of a reddish night
they feed you to a pack of blue dogs
willing to drag you down into their fetid fires.

Loneliness warps all reason
lowers the standard
opens the vein

Hungry Hawk

Listen to your heart
think with your mind
before you think you're apart.

Walk through the fields,
get out from the dust
be covered behind the shields,
make sure you don't have any rust.

Wake up free of concerns, 
take your soul for a walk
because there are no returns
for a solitary hungry hawk

Book: Radiant Verses: A Journey Through Inspiring Poetry

Unexpected Shields

Times when u were young ,
A thought strikes me
Trees shade in scorching sun
Mid aged acceptance 

Strong roots for little grass
Heads first prior 
Maker's unconditional affection 
Follow the steps

Untroubled upturn for keeping 
Untroubled upturn for nourishing 
Wasn't a function for prospect,
But desire for bliss

We dont long for inconsistent affection 
Nor tenderness of our veins 
But unexpected

Tee-Shirt, Old Jeans

The question, urgent and acute, that fashion
asks every woman daily: what does she
prefer? A Ricci’s chic, a chilly passion
of Ungaro, an ease of Givenchy?

What’s better? A dramatically black look
or, say, an all-white? A silk cape with strappy 
heels or a floral-printed dress like Brook
Shields in “Allure”? The one that makes her happy.

So what if… Her

Shields and Yields of Love

Fields, shields and yields of love heal
Upheavals hearts harassed and heckled in circumstances
Maintained, retained and sustained on a hill
Disown and drown doubts in cocoons that ingratiate impertinence instances.

Fields, shields and yields of love lubricate
Gears and gaskets gleaned from garages of gregariousness
Feted and elevated to sainthood to subjugate
Spirits and writs to wean wads of wickedness.

Fields, shields

Trump Shields the Us From Becoming a Carcass Filled With Ants

Trump Shields The US From Becoming A Carcass Full With Ants 

Trumps draws a line in the sand
He's shaken all the trees in the land
Call him whatever, okay an ass
Yet keep in mind his motto USA first
From the civil war to now
No other's brought out the plow
Like how Trump has outlined in his model
In stomping

With Fantastic Shields Made of Doubt Proof Steel

With Fantastic Shields Made Of Doubt Proof Steel
             (The Turning Point)

In this my heart, I dare steel my resolve,
never again yield to cowardly fear,
change my life and in truth's wisdom evolve
well lighted path that breeds courage so clear.

In my spirit, a new creature

Sunless In North Shields

SUNLESS    IN   NORTH   SHIELDS 


It’s painful when the sea wind 
Drives  rain into the eyes
At the end of Yeoman Street, 
Where I waited so long for that girl in the yellow raincoat,
Who never came. 

Seagulls mocking down distant streets 
Of Utrillo roofs and closed doors.  
At

Leaves and Shields

Oft'times I see my friends all 'round
Lke leaves of Autumn, floating down
And softly drifting, side-to-side
A passive dance, on zephryn tide

Then when the ground is covered o'er
A million leaves! A billion! More!
Each leaf contributes its full size
Then, on a stormy gust, they rise

'Til once again back to the groung
With only a faint rustling sound
They cover Earth

Umbrella Shields Sun

Umbrella shields sun
Color lit bright by day and light
Long shadows cast behind.
