Of concrete, cement, asphalt, stones
The humble weeds seek the Sun

I saw him through the slats.
His eyes brighter than the moon,
Smile as pink as a rose.

Prisons Are Not Made of Walls

Bricks and cement do not make walls for a prison
Only cruel minds and premeditation 
Is it not murder?
Is it not fraud and theft that locks one in?
Form: Imagism

Unfullfilled

Youth,
Like cement before it dries,
Like a promise before it’s kept,
Like words spoken, 
—yet unfulfilled

World of Imagination

The  concrete
thought conceives
the world in cement
and steel...
the imagination loose
and fertile, builds a
world from ethereal matter,
  Dreams...!

Construction

The cement
is the letter,
The foundation
is the word
the brick
is the verse,
the poem
it's the wall
the poetry
It's the house built...
 Home sweet home !

Heaves off weight

Premium Member Jed

There once was a fellow named Jed
 Who found oil in his old homestead
 He got such a thrill
 He moved to Beverly hills
 Bought a house with a cement pond instead

Premium Member Pulling Me Gently

pulling me gently
into a quagmire
not in a quicksand way
but slowly 
methodically
sneakily
steadily
until I disappear
into wet cement
forgetting
I ever
was

Come

Come, swiftly
Come, now
Come and fill my heart
And seal therein; every vacuum
Come and cement my thoughts
And tranquil my soul
Come, now
And complement my soul.

Premium Member November Sidewalks

November sidewalks unsightly grow
   Leaves mingling, sloppy with slush and snow
Where dandelions bloomed between cement cracks
   Now pray bugs that warmth come back

Premium Member Red Wheelbarrow

The red wheelbarrow
with its cement smudges
and rusty scratches
dwarfs the white rabbit
nibbling young lettuce
covered in morning dew
next to the flowering
crepe myrtle.

The Haunting of Hill House

Is a place born bad?
Can evil seep in cement,
fear grow then wilt within vine?

Something with no name
weighs in rooms dark, light finite.
Doors lock. Windows look, knowing.

Premium Member Cement

either drown with me or let me in,
let me in,
my tears hit the cold, and lonely, but paved cement,
the tears feel like cement, 
and taste like cement, 
and stick to my skin

Love Changes Mood

What I see, 
All is you.
I see God,
God is you.
You live in house of brick and cement,
I want to live in your heart.
What I feel,
All is gaiety.
When I smiles,
Cause is you.

Positivist Reflection

Despite living
supplying myself with cement
, steel and disgust...
Despite building me
daily verbiage walls,
I'm in a light spirit...
always ready to burst
in songs and laughter...!
