Premium Member Sensous Brown Eyes




              Beige , wide brimmed straw hat.
              And flirting, brown eyes beneath.
              Flickers of my past.

The Fence Builder

brimmed eyes 
squinting against the noon brightness.
gloved hands 
wiping the salty drops away.
denim moving
with the lankiness beneath.
strong lines
rising as the maul swings

Purple Glow

They were my parting gift to her,
They were as fresh as her beauty,
Her face glowed as she received them,
Tears brimmed in her eyes,
Our gazes were fixed on each other
until she was out of sight.

Premium Member After the Yearning

She spent so much of her time
in her mind wildly churning
fantasy with deep yearning
which she spun like useless twine,
then grew old, never learning
that her dreams, like clouds, had dimmed
joy with which life might have brimmed.

The taste of hats

If 
I eat
today’s feast,
it will be brimmed
With tastes of daring
flavors inside for sure,
spicy with a pinch of shame.
But truth be told, the bite is good,
teaches me to keep my opinions
Cause I have eaten a few hats in life.

Dexterity Brimmed

I dug out the 
big pieces of 
black soil of 
my choice,
Crumbled them 
in a tank, 
removed the 
humus and 
pebbles;
Then the soil's 
soaked and 
kneaded 'to 
paste I placed
On my wheel 
and moulded 
all 'ese various-
shaped 
vessels!

The glow of day along the horizon
Steadily moved more distant
As my thoughts became more brimmed
With you as the theme.

Whose eyes where I to see ?
Whose hand would reach toward me ?
Whose voice would light within my ear
Telling of her presence near ?

Autism

O, I love my dear boy
So dearly and so blindly
I will give him my blood
And life if God permits so

He's so weak and sick
So pallid and so tender
But I know he's an umbrella of snow
In the wide-brimmed form

A rhyme, a loft 
Almost in the spelling of my own world.

Premium Member I Realize

Tears have brimmed just beneath 
a facade I afford humanity. 
Held at bay with fragile strength, 
weakened by emotional casualty. 

Pain, anger. I unravel. 
Elements of personality lost. 
I feel my essence shrivel. 
Patience like an angry sea, storm tossed.

Abigail

Abigail forgive me
Breaking your heart in the invisible day
Itinerant always ... pushed by history
Gently breaking bonds in brimmed dismay.
Angel of my better memories
Incessant friend ... from a small flower grown
Love blooms again where understanding is sown.

Premium Member It's in his kiss


Trump threw fake air kisses To his very bored looking Mrs. Funny, how her wide brimmed hat Deterred them from the love rat. So many of the laws he broke He will soon begin to revoke. What a shame he’s the POTUS A STORMY four years for Flotus

Angella

O’er this land I roam
Eternally through sorrow
Escaping thy ‘morrow
Seeking thine home

Pocketed tools, head hung low
Stones kicked roll swift
They flee thee as on I go, bereft

Woeful and yes full brimmed regret
Tears nay neither sweat nor dew
I would shed existence for you

Premium Member Benevolent

Benevolent Limerick Written: by “Miracle Man” 7/10/2018 I once knew this man, who was quite benevolent, But began showing signs of becoming malevolent; His heart brimmed with hate, He became easy to exasperate. Since his passing civility is much more prevalent.

Premium Member -Time Wasted



So much time wasted
So many years
Consumed with inner turmoil 
Cried an ocean of tears

Zero self confidence 
Brimmed with inadequacy 
Failed before l even began
“Everyone else can do it …..but me!”

l found inner peace
My soul was set free
No more time wasted
Just loving being me!

Journey of Bliss

her eyes were
speaking
love
glint peace tranquility
we are about to take
off to eternity
running away
eternal wisdom of love
brimmed with tears
anguish of pain
giving way to assurance
of freedom
dampening power of
my withering cells
charging rejuvenating
at the probability
of the journey
life is a journey
of bliss

Premium Member Fancies

Fancies

Hats worn sidesaddle sporting feathers, cornflowers
Whimsy rides in sequins, ribbons and plumes
Small or broad brimmed, laces form floating towers
Swooping pillboxes off to the races clad in blooms

Dedicated to the fanciful hats called Fancies worn at the Kentucky Derby and Royal Ascot Races.

Premium Member Have You Ever Seen a Rabbit Wearing Glasses?

A rabbit's life, tragically upended
because of the company he befriended - 
where, once, happiness had brimmed,
he grew old, and his eyesight dimmed. 
His brain slowed down like molasses. 
'Twas then I saw him wearing glasses.
So, pitifully, he did implore, 
but the carrot said, "don't darken my door".
In the end, he took the dead man's walk,
led by a vitamin A-poor celery stalk.

glorious day calls
donning summer's broad-brimmed hat
for LOVE of sunshine

unworn since last november
garden work my FUN
laggard spring was late and cold
urgent..seeding must get done

dig them up and put them in
setting sets in ..seeding seeds
hoeing, raking, composting

Premium Member Illumination of City Street

Bittersweet-lights are striking twilight. Waxing moon mise-en-scéne witness. Sans commonplace, suit in pursuit of radiant bouquet - its open spray, long stems in delicate hands. She’s clothed in black and white, lost in thought. Under dark brimmed hats, holding composure, yet the scant swivel of the man’s neck will decide if they are just passing ships; moonlight’s palpitations.

My Favorite Hat

My favorite hat is a wide brimmed straw hat
This hat has a bright orange ribbon hat band
The orange shorts matched and that is where it is at!
Little cabanna girl I got titled; Isn't life grand
It is perfect for the windy, sunny beach and sand

Until the day the pelican flew it away
So long cabanna girl
Now I am topless, my shorts did stay
I searched for my pearl
with no success, now I wear a curl!

Premium Member The Face

The face of this old man painted
as the pastel portrait mute,
turned grey the hard way,
looks at the memory space vacant.
The pensive eyes, one shrouded by
the shadow of sorrow,
the other brimmed by
the film of frozen tears unshed
for the dear ones gone,
engraved in the webbed face 
as the scars of the lost time.

Evening Portrait

Steps snoring on the slipperless carpet
At snail sped a thought brimmed him
His tendons and tensions are thawing wet
Ang glazed eyes graze upon the dim
Evening ekeing out its sunset ending day
In wet seas of memory that washes away
That joy that kindled him by treat of kiss
That joy now folded like skin and put away
Left him fogged with feeling, empty and grey
He is weighted with thoughts of people he missed.

Premium Member Kids From the Village

Just the town children ne'er
feasted a forest of one tree's
in a labyrinth of the uninvited
stirs like cream in cocoa
--rightfully aloof

Their eyes steeped in a delft brew
brimmed by clamourous whispers
of an ephemeral sound alights a tortoise
yet ne'er have tea
--unwittingly

Juxtaposition compares bears none to
contrast, ne'ertheless, true to form,
town children
--they'd be.
