Short Accentuate Poems

Hearty beef stew
Beef bullion fondue
Carrots not a few
Diced taters imbue
Beef chunks to the brew
Salt and pepper to
Accentuate!...

the moon takes its place, 
the stars accentuate the sky,
darkness' been summoned,
nightfall has opened its door, 
we take strides in the moonlight.

the setting Sun 
sleepily sinks into the Sea.

'Neath the 
crimsoning sky, 
silhouettes of fading light

accentuate
this day's hopeful
farewell and goodbye!...

Adding black to light the green
above the swirl of scale
Talons  bare in shining sheen
Accentuate  the  curl of tail
Half open eye of iris red
Flat wings of gabardine
Brush holds in sudden Elvish dread
The artist has been seen...

guru chakra and sahasrara
combine to accentuate 
mood and mode contemplative
bliss hums with potent power
as toroidal heart joins the play
feeling soma nectar dripping

forgive our diction
but this is fact, not fiction
and certainly not metaphorical...

The epitome of frowziness
Unkempt, with a dash of wild
Stylishly disheveled
Beneath an unexpected
Yellow bow.

Soft stains accentuate
The drape of her dress
Highlighting invisible features
Pencil drawing
On a moving canvas

Gliding smoothly
In unlaced ballet slippers
Leaving no trace
But the hint
Of her presence...

daffodils spinning heads wind scents lovely smell
     roses bedded different accent emphasizes
tulips are so colorful and bright accentuate
     élites amongst the bushes and scrubs 
placed on the table in budvases to adorn
     treasures at this June garden party

She has exceptional supple rose lips
Face with a complexion like no other
She purses those lips not having one dip
So sexy are her eyes, not to bother
She sure doesn’t accentuate her hips
But her face showers more than another
Lovely pink cheeks leave her blushing with awe
This contemplated as I kiss her jaw

Materializing Craft

Placed on hard wood writing with fingers actuated & brilliant
While feet float covering bass and manage manipulation of volume
So as to accentuate the crescendo

This allurement and I construct the anthem
My heart sings
Bars inked with sonancy spilling out rhythmic bestowal
Until my musical thespian can not flow anymore...

Placid haven between the mountains

Accentuate the idilic romance between

Romantic couple who was enjoying

Anniversary celebration for the ten

Days of a second honeymoon

Inspired by the sacred vows

Solemnly pledged with an amorous 

Enchantment for an eternal lifetime

Slamming back from a pedigree
Feather weights accentuate
Dodge and dart, meditate

Throw down the majesty
Standing statue to lumbering birds
Grotesque reflects off the shin bone

Moses parting the red sun
Hauling banquets with captors
Captives sling up the frozen masters

Atomic beats streaking spleens
Intestinal with pesicide, the tics grow dreams
Split to dull gather, sending cinders...

beauty makes demands
        exertions
           to overcome
              stimulations
imprints
  in a new phase
      an essential experiment
to assimulate
    to induce
          the tranquil
soft as falling rain
     a capacity to feel
     to purge the past
     the unseen the seen
to reveal
       & render anew
       & accentuate&embrace
in
   the contours
     of my mindh...

we heard in latest news
priest wore walk on water shoes
now can go on cruise

priest gave his sermon
prepared and said in german
we did determine

thank God have to do
sermon was over and through
picture of us He drew

God had premonition
when with much apprehension
must maintain retention

did die by the score
why would there ever be war
which we do deplore

must accentuate
God given abilities

stuporous
guard down
past tendencies
rise within instinctively
manifesting as rage
condoned by ego
as being fleeting
thus leaving residue 
of past animal nature
within our radiant soul

the faint traces
of identity nurtured
enables us to bilocate
between the immanent
and the transcendent

unique wabi-sabi stains
like the spots on the moon
diminish not soul’s beauty
but rather accentuate
innate luminosity

we forgive ourself

$6.50 for an ice cream cone,
A rip-off, that’s for sure,
But once spring fever hits, I know
There is no better cure.

There’s ice cream in my freezer;
I could scoop myself a bowl,
But in the outside air, a cone
Is soothing to the soul.

Today’s was coconut with hunks
Of chocolate mixed inside
And almonds to accentuate
No pleasure was denied.

$6.50 for an ice cream cone
I’m glad I can afford,
For after so much time indoors
I’ve earned this sweet reward....
