Reflection
In awe of the lights
Presented in a shimmering show
Rain water accentuates the mighty view
Shining lights glow on pavement
What a grand sight
Reflection

Who builds the nest of the weaver bird I ask.
Using one thousand strips of grass, it is a daunting task.
Starting with a ring-shaped frame, it accentuates his life.
Male weaver bird’s building skills determines if he gets a wife....

intent accentuates
vibrancy of our heart
in agendaless exuberance 
pulsating thus in the vast void

this intent is innate aliveness
of pristine consciousness 
that’s aglow at all times
screen of awareness 

abide therein oh hermit

Her silhouette in moonlight’s gaze
accentuates her splendid curves
she dances in moon’s golden glow
feet tiptoe ‘cross the velvet turf

She floats through night’s gentle breeze
as if she were a lullaby
enticing only lovely dreams
amid a velvet midnight sky...

Mystique in that smile,
Ardency in those eyes,
Delicacy in porcelain skin,
Honesty in her voice, 
Uniqueness in her spirit,
Soul in her passion,
Mystery again in gestures,
Intricacies in her flaws and perfections,
Tenderness accentuates in all of her,
And again, her madding Mystique....

Crystal dewdrop jewels pendent from leafless Hawthorne
over snowdrop pearls and early golden buds of daffodil.
A blackbird upon Sparrow, Peggy Gladys does adorn,
while morning light accentuates the name of Mitchell, Bill.
I look behind, my footsteps in the dew a path have worn,
past Throwers by the row, as well as Bunting, Jane. Stowe, Daniel....

her ebony hair, pulled, tied tightly back
in a manner that sharply accentuates
her haughty, elegantly sculpted face;

the unblemished stretch of ivory-toned,
delicately pored skin over the slant
of an exquisitely endowed bosom;

a work of art is she, just outstanding;
that she really seems real is astounding,
that mannequin there quietly standing....

Illuminating orb accentuates the feeling of coolness
bats are coming, October feels and cherishes them
tiny moths transmogrify from the sky in a mystical way
winter is being announced ahead of her time
Sky turns his back on the orb, pretending not to see
Wolves as they bring their pups to the hill
Heart of the orb adds to the silent of the beautiful night....

Against sheer lace that filters in,
pink halos traced with white, 
she leans against the window's frame,
enveloped by the light

The pregnant pause, as twilight crowns
accentuates her form.
The beauty of her shape is drowned,
in mother-love transformed

She is dark she is pretty
She has an easy grace
When she smiles sky's open
As she walk beauty accentuates
If me alliterates she's beauty me beholds
In her hugs me befoulded as am beffuddles
The in her me spy genna

Me spying beautiful l meadows of genna
When with her me fathom lilting nivarna
Her essence a paradise of carousel emotions
Her name is Rue an enchantress gem is she..

Oh, how the heart pains when lonely and tried
The pangs never answered are heaviest to bear
As the curtain comes down upon the earth’s day
Evening accentuates and reverberates the ache

Let not night, fall upon a lonely bleeding heart
For it is in darkness that the heart then hazes
Providing little clear thought for he who suffers
Let day be constant, through clarity, the heart survives...

She wears a slightly see-thru dress of pleasure
That of which night accentuates the curves more 
Her chest showing nipples in equal measure
Drawing power of acquiescence on shore
Her form leaves me meandering towards lust
That dress just blends into her skin, like her bust
It all becomes one, shows off all her glory
She has my heart, her love I sure do carry

Amidst the mist, perchance!
The besieged me, accentuates..
gamboling at that ephemeral glance,
The demure Soul for a moment, eluates. 


Defying every dulcet wrath,
with my erstwhile prudent..
eking out, what I ever hath,
ineffable! yet a halcyoninan incipient.


I ride astride now, towards then..
from what is lurking afore,
groping the gossamer, to a glen,
where emollience rise only to inure.....

All Ways, Always

Bestow love; begin the beauty.
Cheerfully cherish; live charming.
Happy hearts grant heavenly hopes.
Let loveliness lead new lifestyles.
Hold honesty in your thoughts.
Merrily make marvelous days.
Determine to adorn delight.
Admiration aimed amplifies.
And affection accentuates.
Approach life tenderly, all ways.

Intervals

Time
lapsing
repeating
a breathing space
respite from preceding activity. 

An interlude that accentuates breaks
and goings on
preceding
silent
gaps.

Thus,
rending
beautiful
flowing music
enlivening auditory delight.

Giving patrons harmonious pleasure,
happiness born
through music
or words
paused.

Time’s brush paints the canvas 
of a year untold with precision;
Fine details and soft strokes 
take on an emotional outburst;

Of a year untold with precision
the clock accentuates highlights 
shaped like roller coaster skylines;

Fine details and soft strokes 
joyous freestyle of highs and lows;
Abstract design’s the buzz of life;

Take on an emotional outburst 
with a brand new color palette;
Coast on all of the chaotic shades....

Laughter is beautiful with light in the eyes.
Color accentuates any day or any face
Nature by the creator flows freely.
Rejoice in our far away sisters
Adorned in silk of scarlet or grass skirts
Flowers and shell jewelry
A natural beauty is adorned with a smile and a pleasant hello
Touch my hand, kiss my check
Laugh and cry with me, be my companion.

For Nathan Dilt's A simple reminder contest,
Remind the people of the world of their beauty!!...

After having been gone 
for a long stretch of years 
   The Muse finally came home 
Yes- you can see 
    that we will
    gain knowledge 
and strength
  Delight in her return
The light shines brighter now 
  and the urge to create 
deepens in all of us 
 She is a shining sun - we know now 
  we will glow 
through the long winter nights 
    The  Muse has found a lover
moonlight accentuates
  the deep, dark shadows 
which form patterns 
  on the cool, cool earth...

Scattered the droplets splay 
a sheen not really seen 
soft shades of blue filter 
from the form that is you 

azure streaks of summertime bliss 
electrifying my sky 

a mere twining in your eye 
accentuates and erupts 
feining the sun 

I've come undone 
as the strings untie 
the past 

waves wash over our fears 
bravely admonished to lie near 

trailing footprints traverse 
holding on to an outstreched hand 
farther never felt so close...
