Poetic Realm

Romeo was handsome and warm;
he often lured Juliet into his poetic realm...
he had a charming smile and vocal skills,
only climbed balconies with roses, not hills.

City On Venus

My dream futuristic city
My city in the heavenly tropics
My walled Indian city on Venus
My city with tropical flowers
Luxury condo buildings with white balconies.

Gardens Above Ground

Balconies 
are decorated
with daisies.

The perfumed 
geraniums
hang like plants.

Beautiful
are the gardens
above ground. 

They are seen
in New Orleans,
not elsewhere.

Penthouses

Penthouses 
Are not the retreat 
They are the meat
That sandwich the talent 
On balconies 
Away from the juice 
That produces 
Abuse and misuse 
Of time better spent 
With friends
And open ends
The bends hide
From the start

Progress

Progress
By R.e. Taylor

Man has moved on
Progressed
Beauty no longer matters
Only function
Canyons of glass
With walls of stone
No more flowers
Or window boxes
No more balconies
Or cobblestone streets
No more places to walk
Or talk in peace
Has man really progressed
Or has he lost too much


Premium Member Laundry, Spring Thinkings

Washing spinning suds
Watching. Thinking on spring things
Carnations in strict 
Formation and blue roses
Poses on balconies.

With BLINDING beauty 
All are blooming and smell of
Fruity confessions
With their beauty fragrant
Fruity concessions they are

Doing their duty making
Life a lovelier WORLD

Balconies

Where did the balconies go?
Lovers can no longer read sonnets from below
Romantics can’t climb the vines to kiss their true love
Couples need a new way to elope
Romeo cannot woo his fair Juliet
Love is truly lacking inspiration
Where did all the balconies go?
I do not know but in today’s world
We need just one
Built for romantics and lovers
And the idea of love

Clover Leaf

Execute the space
 Dont let it go to waste
 Shake each clover leaf
 With satin hands, minds blend
 This is the grand chorus
 
Men have flown from pages to see
 The great unfurling of destiny
 Rocketed through endless chase of chance
 
We will make futures sparkle today
 Poised on lofty balconies, bring out
 Your kings and peasants to see
 What comes now
 When we blend our mercury

Premium Member Gasping For Droplets of Air

The day broke muggy and gray
  Dewdrops sizzle on gooey asphalt
    and burn holes in parched lawns  

Outdoors discriminates not between
  craftsmen's rank sweat and 
    day laborer's grime

Apartment-dwellers' tongues hang
  over their balconies, enervated
    gasping for droplets of air

Hell hath no Furnace like a city
  at the mercy of a heat wave
    without a Fire Escape

Should Doors Close


Should doors close, you'll find me awaiting 
Harking to aeolian whispers,
Watching the windows for your return,
Sitting in crepuscular stillness,
Should doors close, balconies will open,
Creating new possibilities
Of our passionate love reunion,
Look for marked jalousies, should doors close.

One Sunday Morning

Sunday Morning 

Puddles on cobblestones
 Had a film of spent 
rainbows,
 clouds rested on rooftops
 and tear streaked windows misted; 
dejected curs  
sniffed the air as a damp army 
of washing hung limply on balconies. 
Church bells peeled  
the faithful prepared for mass, 
unseen and 
under arches the tormented
 waited for the bar 
to open and release them 
from the agony of 
their lonely inferno.

St Maarten

The island is very small
With a small mountain
And a small lake
Some small towns 
With small stores
Little houses with tiny balconies 
And miniature beaches
Where winter and summer are blended 
Exchanging their days and nights
Like the play of waves
You can ramble on it all in half a day
Only the setting sun is big
Like a giant bronze rooster
It doesn't want to leave 
Even for a night
This island of only two postmen

Plastic Surreal Suburbia

Been landscaping crew cuts
Mowing down yards constant
Gravel in its place, hedges and drapes
All for you to live accordingly
In the right scheme
Where wildness is tamed down
Where citizenship, not so profound

So we can go on our way
Planting seeds for the future
Seeding children with identity
Posing God on marble balconies

Any upset to the balance
Police find the scent
Guard dogs and lawn gnomes
Our plastic surreal american lives

Premium Member So Quaint

So quaint the papa
Of the church original 
So loose, the benedictions
From balconies fall.

Hours or minutes
Or seconds or days
End times, ne'er 
So obviously near.

Reguild the lillies
On the Crest of kings,
Approach thou legends 
Within reach of the demons.

So delicate the orator
Of foundation,  lays
Till wisps of sin
Engulf our plane.

Friend or few
Foe or many
On that night we forgot, 
The Saviour descends.

Premium Member My Favorite Alley

I always expect to hear singing from the balconies
there is only the chatter of other enthusiastic diners
in the thin alley where we consume outside in summer
Scars, my favorite restaurant with a welcoming owner

we are greeted with plates of warm steaming appetizers
crisp table cloths are white linen, the silverware heavy
It is not inexpensive, but we would gladly pay more
for the ambiance, delicious food and this gorgeous alley.

Premium Member The Happiest Time of the Year

Israel's Festival of Tabernacles is here
   Designed to bring cheer
      It's the happiest time of the year

Crops are harvested from far and near
   Extensive preparations made, quite dear
      On balconies, in courtyards, flimsy huts appear

Jews share their largesse with all who draw near
   Eat and sleep outside, except in weather severe
      Rejoice together, proclaiming this message clear

    ~ With thanks for our bounty, the Lord we revere
