A New Beginning

Thatched hut in the sun,
Trees and balloons as landmark,
Journey to embark!

  Ingenious phrases of praise 
     fall flat on our ears
   
  The conscience pricks them ~
     balloons of our fears

Premium Member Heart Shaped Balloons

Sharp pointed arrows 
dancing high on helium
linger in the air; 
Red and pink heart shaped balloons,  
how I wish I hated them.

Premium Member Behold

Citrus balloons fly
Toward those stars of glitter,
As painted fireworks
Splat upon sheets of paper
Soaked in the darkest of inks.

Korean Water Balloons

Awash in a big sea of blood
Trump's Cash Cow was chewing its cud
Kim Jong-Un laughed,
"Don't be so daft!
You know it was only a dud!"

Bouncing square balloons
Rectangular falls spools bounce
Play catch you and I

Jellyfish At the Beach

Jellyfish At The Beach

Graceful pirouettes 
Swirling among the waves.
Dancing months of r's,
Warriors with a sting.
Empty balloons on sand.

Premium Member Bursting Bellies

   Balloons fill with helium, soar in the sky

   What strange gases burst politicians’ bellies

     ~ Perhaps Saturn will see them fly by

What She Holds In Her Hand

Don Simmons 3 By 8 IMAGE 1/5/2015

Her hand gently grasps vibrancy
But, dark shadows envelop her
Balloons for Midnight's Children waits...

Beauty of Words

Breath-sound-voice make words
They are listened to and heard
Their beauty takes wing
They speak their voice as they fly
Then burst as fragile balloons

Premium Member Animals Continued

Prancing in laughs the menagerie,
all the animals stop by a tree;
No longer in a cage 
gone are masks full of rage;
They jump with balloons delightfully.

Sunday matinee Pepé Le Pew
patiently stood in line in a queue
holding colourful balloons
to watch Looney Tunes cartoons

Dinner Time Afterthought

After I’d been made to eat dessert, 
You’d take me into your bedroom, 
Recall a memory of us and assert, 
With balloons no despair or gloom.

Sensational Yellow

Sensational Yellow

golden, radiant yellow balloons
blazing in a welcoming sky
their buttery brilliance floats up to greet
a lemon colored sun.

In My Mind

In my mind

In my mind
We’re building a castle 
In a city of lanterns, parachutes ,
balloons and bubbles in the sky

Come to me
Now my dear
Bride to be


Nothing to fear
Early love balloons 
Year after year

Birth hummed tunes
When we’re free
Our garden blooms.

Ladybirds dine on fruit nectar,
Spfring rose petals drying,
Pressed between lines of poetry,
Park swing chains squeking with laughter
As balloons drift with doves.

Bogies Balloon

Bogie was curious and wanted to know
why his party balloons wouldn't grow
Bacall let out a sigh
same old reply
"just put your lips together and blow!"

To the Stage

Darkness takes over just before
The dim lights shine on my balloons
A happy facade MUST appear

Balloons of Yellow

Balloons of Yellow

Balloons that have a yellow glow
Make one feel so happy and glad
To see them will lift you from that low
And whilst their there you will not be sad

Spoken Words

Divorcing soon the tongue,the words,
Marrying them the hearing ears,
Flying up in the air the words,
Swallowing like balloons,
Letting their masters to lick their wounds!

Red balloons I brought, escaped your hand, but you can hold my heart instead

What I Believe

I pulled the clouds apart like a curtain..
There sat those who have gone too soon..
To know they are together, I am now certain..
And our hands touch lightly like floating balloons..
