Once You Find What You Are Meant To Be, Trying To Get There Will Make You Happy

Slalom, serpentine or straight 
Your course need only approach your goal 
Although important is the rate
To a noble bourne, it is not the soul
Form: Rhyme

Thus, Fate Avengeth

Henry VIII desireth an heir.
Wife after wife, nary son hath wives bourne.
Thusly, he cut off each head.
Findeth a new wife instead.
His sole son hath been born from an affair.

In a given pace
Dismail  of rounds
Sounds of ordinary
Act as eagle as bourne
Join  the pot in dreams
Flourish to all  to shine
Live of  short coming
High hopes  all come back

Pace In Hopes

In a given pace
Dismail  of rounds
Sounds of ordinary
Act as eagle as bourne
Join   the pot  in dreams
Flourish to all  to shine
Live of   short coming
High hopes all come back

Attic floorboards creak
Something seeks a memory
Sleep and leave it be

I'm sure there are two
Another cat sneaked inside
My cat helps it hide

Bourne Free

Too wise for anything 
but faith…
to be carried by angels
in love’s holy grail

The light in her eyes
to reign majestic
illumined by heavens
flowering dale

In a Pot In One Piece

I see the world all  beneath
Wars for oil planned turmoil
Wealth walks in greed in surge 
Speeches done about lost dreams
Making in dreams from yesterday
Dreaming as equal as all bourne
In a pot in  making one piece

Premium Member Bedtime At Grandma's

Small one
Playing is done
And your bedtime has come.
Wind is moaning
rafters shifting.
Listen.
Inside closets 
ghosts are sniffing.
Dare not move. Dream you fly.
Sun in your eye
Morning.

Premium Member Serendipity

It matters not the timing of a day,
An absent mind that meets a busy street.

The driver of a bus who turns away
To better hear a joke behind his seat.

An accident, no planning to discern.
A curve of fate, be random or your turn

Pool of Souls

pool of souls
choosen in  birth
is it  random 
or meant to be
glue to a  chosen  body

bourne in pain host  passion
first breath in cry 
to be hold and love
last  breath in cry
to be  respect 

in disperserse of universe
fighting with our shadows
holding a seasoned soul

Blue marble in space

     On your vagabond journey

          Through the galaxy

              Plying your eternal bourne

                   Please avoid those asteroids

To all my Souper pals I raise a toast

     I love the creative po-ums you post

          May your well never run dry

               As your poet's bourne you ply

                    As Ralphie said to Alice - you're the most

Enjoy the Scent of Roses Elegy To Myself

I’m but a man of meager means A man of simple pleasures Tho’ deep endowed with eager dreams I enjoy life’s simple treasures My days I know are numbered now And so are minutely measured So that I might remain A man it seems (and bourne by dreams) A man of meager means And simple pleasures

Your wishes can't regain,
A thrill so long ago. 
To once again reclaim 
A past you wouldn't know. 

You view a different dance, 
With unfamiliar tune 
You pine for lost romance, 
Yet treasure not the Moon.

Eighteenth Century Love

Treatise of love suborn
Of feelings, desires shorn
With parochial aspirations born
On ritual wings bourne
Romance brokered forlorn
On christening morn, personal 
license torn
Deeded by title; underwritten 
with scorn
Parceled with dowry; with 
annuities adorn
Liabilities, a fitted mantle 
charitably worn

The First Day

Gray dawn,
A yearned yawn,
My foot on cold white marble.
Gush to the stop,
With marathon stomp,
Bourne to jouncy travel.




It's mainly inspired by my initial feelings on first day heading to a new job i always dreamt for.Hope you liked it.Please give remarks of appreciation/criticism down in the comment box.

Fruit of the Heart

Fruit of The Heart

There scarcely abound happiness
In hearts that nurture no forgiveness:
While the 'unforgiven' is fettered
The 'unforgiving' is also burdened!

Forgiveness' fruit of the bosom
Bourne from the heart's blossom;
While the Grower's heart's gratified
The Picker's thirst's also satisfied!

Bourne On the Wind

From afar both night and morning On the four winded sky, The stuff of life that made me Blew here, so here am I. Now for a breath I tarry Not yet to blow apart, So take my hand and tell me The feelings in your heart. Speak now and I will answer How shall I help, now say 'Fore to the winds four corners I go my endless way.

Premium Member Too Late

Opinions never veer, 
Nor acting deem you wise. 
You're branded now with fear
Behind a thin disguise. 

Behavior layered deep, 
No fantasy can hide. 
The wounded at your feet 
Your conscience won't abide. 

A fire too great to quench. 
Has spread too far within. 
Were you to turn an inch, 
You'd face what you have been.

Premium Member Two-Timers

Simultaneous the sting,
Those who two-time on the wing.
Each at fault began the fling.
Subterfuge, a complex thing.

Schedules smeared and rearranged.
Missing gaps in time explained.
Lies to memorize, maintain.
Learn the lying details game.

Shelf life of adultery
Locked away for none to see.
Those who trusted while deceived,
Hold, and rightly so, the key.

Premium Member Contretemps

Angry acts begin. 
Harmful words would never flare, 
Count to ten then once again. 

Wildfire spreading fast, 
With mistaken, muddled acts. 
Smokey aftertaste will last. 

Then finessed assaults, 
Vainly exit, pride intact, 
Casting blame, the other's fault.

Friendships fall head-long, 
Disarrayed in stumbled steps. 
Puzzled reasons blurred then gone.

Premium Member Dream Visitors

Invisible formations streak 
Through clouds around the Moon, 
Then delve beneath the canopy 
to voice a mortal tune. 

Your soul the vessel to impart
In perfect tonal scheme; 
One second of a beating heart, 
A light year's span, a dream. 

Now as you wake in stretching moves,
As night to day evolves, 
A messenger left vital clues 
To aid your will to solve.

Stargazer's Prayer

Stargazer's Prayer
by oldaubry

 

Capricorn, Virgo, Sagittarius too
Grace me with your image
as you come into view
I feel my true self
as I look to the sky
I can feel that one spark
as the evening is nigh
your stars are a guide
like a mariner's chart
as I use the sextant
that is bourne of my heart
I pray for safe passage
I don't want to roam
May God speed my journey
and help me get home

Smearing Tears On My Table

Smearing Tears On My Table,
Irridescent In The Glow Of Pale Light.
Trailing Down My Face and Able,
To Bring Out The Pain Heightened At Night.

Evaporating Into The Darkness,
Yet Pooling Into Oceans Deep.
Sadness Bourne As I Accept Less,
The Price Of Lost Love Is So Steep.

Smearing Tears On My Table,
Moistening My Numbed Fingers.
Love Being A Subject of Poetic Fable,
This Pain Purchased To Forever Linger.
