Down from a prospect, acclaimed
As that clear eyed
Of a Reisling grape
On the french side
With the local product spilt
Adds, dare I say
What of its sparkle
Gives life to bay....

England’s acclaimed bard William Shakespeare
had a father whose jobs included tasting beer!
Lines from Shakespeare’s plays might put hearts aflutter

ODE TO NORA

Never been encountered, 

desire so much desired

On the verge of being so wanted, 

attractiveness becomes attraction

Ravished at natures’ skills, 

compatibility made so compatible

Acclaimed with the right appeal, 

lust turns to love!...

I have always thought
Such ideas to be logical

     Thought that a lover leaves, 
     and leaves room for another

But maybe there’s more to it
     A lover leaves,
     God throws in another lover
          In his critically acclaimed grace of timing...

Six enlightened tunes 
Eight melodies of virtues 
To become acclaimed 
In the ten skies of the Church 
This is the eternal bell


This poem is about a 1,200 year old Manichaean bell (and its inscription) found in Ordu-Baliq (Capital of the Uyghur Khaganate).

I’ve oft noted on this forum, a hesitancy
To comment on poems acclaimed 
Methinks the cause is our ego
Which is as yet untamed 

Perhaps we seek an echo
Or makings of a virtual bond
But why not appreciate fragrance
That uplifts our soul with its magic wand

LONGING TO SEE YOU

I’ve climbed patiently this far
Over the heap of piebald years
To have even a twinkling glimpse
Of your acclaimed effulgent face
A flitting moment to me bestowed
Enough to send my spirit leaping
Among the daisies in the morning sun
When time are short for squirt of joy....

There once was a lion so dread
His trainer must keep him well fed
For if this bad lion
Got hungry for Brian
Old Brian might just end up dead!

Ole Leo the lion acclaimed
Like to play the “I’m so sweet” game
Slow Brian was lulled
And his arm it was culled
Now, the zoo’s out a lion it seems!...

Apollo, Grecian god
Acclaimed as god of sun
Ageless and immortal
Adept in many skills
Archer and musician
Athletic and handsome
Adorable in mien

An amber portrait of Venus seated on a rocky landscape,
With enigmatic facial expression historically undecipherable
Symbolist's acclaimed goddess of feminine mystique.
Born through Da Vinci's Smufato technique
Lady of Louvre, Lady of all arts.

Assessing wealth above

Almighty’s acclaimed glow

Awesome wondrous study

Appreciation with bliss

Arrayed firmament*

Assuring heaven’s hope

Amidst bright faith ascent.

*Psalm 150:1 Praise ye the LORD. Praise God in his sanctuary: praise him in the firmament of his power.

so invisible here
looking at you while you sleep
light wind blowing
middle of the day
sun is being kind
feel so alive
never thought i would be here

so highly acclaimed here
looking at you while you sleep
perky cleavage still attentive
soft, pretty mouth slightly open
smooth tan skin so radiant
feel to revived
never thought you would be here...

Glorified and sanctified 
by all these tomes, 
blessed and praised, exalted, 
extolled and honored, 
adored and lauded 
in the name of these wondrous vintage books,
acclaimed 
in the name of poetry and science fiction 
and lost race adventures, 
sorrows and consolations, 
abundance and peace, 
dreams and losses 
and dreaming still in celestial libraries, 
Amen....

Acclaimed Italian-American actor, Al Pacino
           His brooding intensity, a raging inferno

He forcefully exclaimed "Hooha!" in 'Scent of A Woman'
A catchphrase was born. Great actor, dimunitive human

How too choose, how to select
A film to fill that two hour slot
The bumph will big it up 
Over egg the pudding like as not
So I look for key word like
“Thought provoking” or “moody”
“Poignant, “Critically acclaimed”
Or “Stunning cinematography”
And when I’ve identified them
I know they are the ones to miss 
And I get the one with the cover picture
Of a girl in a state of undress...

I wish a kiss upon your heart with unconditional love my compassionate part.
Dance oh beauty in my head as i sleep, awaken the power of destiny i seek.
Can i hold you closely and be your hero entirely?
Conversate honestly and laugh tirelessly.
- a miracle on mystery lane,her beauty un acclaimed ,destined by determinations 
unexplained
i wish her here to conquer my pain.
Take my hand and walk away....

when truth stated by acclaimed sages is not realised
in as the vibrationless state is not cognised
whilst acknowledging the possibility
we try and refine our ability
parking the point
till God does so anoint
our eye with piercing spherical sight
attaining luminosity that banishes darkness of night

the blossoming flower waits
in staid stillness sedate
for as long as it takes

this is our offering
this is our prayer...

lovingly attentive
   immediately acclaimed
   complementary
an exact contemporary
yet
    vanishing away
in perceived emotions
     distinct absences
     of
       apparent inhibitions
&
    estatic beauty

so remarkable a nature
the ability to mesmorialize
    the
       unforgettable

an ancient beauty
       such introspection
       .              indulged
hidden 
     in an

Solstice perennial deed
Vivid blush ingrain seed
Reverence of times past
Pledges for battles cast

Lulling heads, utmost grave
Reverence for services gave
Abloom on war-torn fields
Long ago sacrifice yields

Acclaimed soldier's might
Noble tis honorable fight
For whom bell tolls
Poppies laurel lost souls

Doleful meadow bloodred
Tally those who bled
Rustic fields gently sway
‘Neath skies somber gray
