loose tumbling sea breeze
sets waves of tense limbs free –
empty beach chairs

can’t play musical chairs nor switch tables —

Premium Member Daily Daft Ditty 1 - Musical Chairs

I ran downstairs
to play musical chairs - 
how I do recall!

I kept repeating
changing seating
'til there were none at all.

Glaring white lake stretches up to bushes’ shades.
Adirondack chairs and canoes align in grace.

Premium Member Indefinite Art

Brush strokes take this paint, 
I see our musical chairs; 
Style flows like water; 
Smelling the smoke and the wine,
You are indefinite art.

Premium Member A Phone Is Missing

A phone is missing
We find all kinds of wrappers
Under dirty chairs

A phone is missing
How did we get so many junk drawers?
We better stop looking

Premium Member Firefly Juxtaposition

darkening meadows 
conjure parallel stages- 
lawn chairs on damp grass 
fireflies skittishly eyeing 
the flitting lights of smart phones

Dangling Dwellings

Dangling thoughts
Of your brilliance 
Dream about the days of destiny.

The wondrous slots 
Of due diligence
Fill their chairs with the pace of scrutiny.

Rebel With a Cause

Comfortably I'd sit here and settle
unaware my office chairs a rebel
like quicksand
I'd need a hand
as my chair would sink to a new level.

Lawn chairs arranged in circle.
Wood piled to build the perfect campfire.
Friends gather for lasting memories.

Premium Member A Step Back In Time

A step back in time
when verandas had rocking chairs
purposely placed in the sunlight;
waiting for Grandma to sit,
and rock until darkness descended.

Poem 222

crows, crows everywhere under the wooden stairs. Broken chairs in the sky a flying soar high bear my mother's fruit for she sees a nail in all our hearts and souls.

Nothing

Nothing
You're Chairs, Empty
Empty room
I have tears on my cheeks
My heart stood
My dream is dead
My life is cold
Wishes me dead.
Apples are laughing
I'm alive
Dead

Song

Song

I sing
for these empty chairs
as well as the sea.

The sea hears me
it translates my song
into a language.

A language
that every fish in the sea
art

Twist Of Fate

Sitting alone, empty chairs, hollow feeling
She's looking sad, devoid of something
'Till someone giving her bouquet of flower
Sudden change of atmosphere in the air.

Spring Garden

Garden in full bloom 
with moving perfume, 
butterfly wings spoom. 
Nestling outdoor chairs 
old and gracious airs, 
spring morning prepares.

Katherine the Great

Katherine the Great
Was fashionably late
In the parlor were chairs to recline

Each year she got greater
So of course she got later
And now all her “good friends” decline

as the soft wind blows 
outside on the deck chairs rock... 
their presence is felt

Love Those Who Abound

Love Those Who Abound

We always love those who abound;
All over each place as well as around;
Up the stairs;
Sitting in chairs;
Not seeing them caused me to frown.

Tea Time Tableau


Come to my garden ~
     Let us have some tea, 
Let's enjoy ourselves
     Under the lush tree, 
I've set out the chairs ~
     For just you and me.

Another Saloon

In the club, everything is the same:
        Lounge, tables, chairs,
        music playing..
     Only people weren't
     the same... They went to
     to the salon, longing...!

Premium Member Empty Chairs

Empty chairs sit

Waiting silently alone

Shared warmth eludes them.
