The Passing of Nick Adams

Elegant
short
choppy 
dialogue

War
women
bullfights
and wine

Early morning
backyard
shotgun
a perfect ending


Down

I am an ocean. Quiet and calm on the outside,
But throw a stone and I become choppy, obnoxious, and full of ripples.
I am the ocean.

A Charlieku

Sailing Choppy seas, Adventurous! Sailing Concrete seas, Irritating. Sailing Dreamtime seas... Sensational!

Sailing Away

The tide has turned on us.
All of what we had is slowly fading,
I can feel you drifting
Further and further away from my heart.
The sea has been choppy too long.


Premium Member Whitewater

We shelter secrets, holding them close 
and encrypted. Hidden truths,
like submerged rocks that create 
snapping undercurrents and choppy, 
white-capped rapids for navigating affinities.

Isles of Seclusion

emotions sailing in choppy waters onward to isles of seclusion passion dinghies released seeking anchors of expression securely beached exploring wisdom shores

The Glass and the Wind

/Blind meting. / Invisible touch. /
/The Sharp. / Voyager beyond the sea./
/Letters into the bottle, / in choppy waters. /
/Remembers, / Frames, /Cold spring. /
/Dreams framed/ in wind travels. /

Premium Member Choppy Seas and Wobbly Knees

When you sail a sloop in slop,
be prepared to stop, regroup;
time spent on the choppy seas
throws you for a loop, makes wobbly knees.

Premium Member Waves On the Lake

On a bright sunny day
The waves of the lake
Rushes to the shore
The children jumps
the waves

Sailboats are in the water
Enjoying to sail 
with the wind
Together the sailboats 
are one
On the choppy water

Life Through Water

Rain is a lull on choppy afternoons.
Storms are enlightening clarities through fog.
Thunder is the words we say before we go in for the kill.
Lightning is the final blow.
Water is passion, wrath, and chaos.
In many ways, water is us.

The Sirens

Ambiguous times,
Sudden bursts with flares and blinks,
Sirens heard for miles.

Disorderly days,
Choppy waves crash on ones shore,
Some just sit and wave.

Frenzied souls weeping,
Violation eats away
At all that once was.

Premium Member The Sky Turns Dark

Foreboding storm clouds sail in fast
Gale force winds touch shore
Lighting strikes the choppy waves 
Rain begins to pour
The sky turns dark and menacing
Palm trees sway and bend
The howling wind is deafening
We pray this storm will end
Form: Rhyme

Atlantic

Cool gray 
Warm tones
Damp sand and speckled stones
Sleepy sky
Lazy haze
Falling into ocean’s gaze
Thunderous roll
A whisper still
Endless water’s blurring thrill
Choppy wind
Cooling skin
Soothing self from within.

The Coastguard

Above the choppy,
viewed from
behind the glassy
winded and floppy.
He observes the flossy 
dark black rolling 
white and frothy.
Salt filtered manes blown 
acrossy limpits rocky 
trapping olde anchors rusty
amongst filleted fishy
sea
Form: Rhyme

Truth As Biggest Speech Defect

We stutter, lisp and clutter
We are not vocal – mute…

We can be choppy, mumble words
Impaired rhythm, be automatic…

Distort our sounds, substitute, omit
Or string together made-up words…

And all impediments forgiven
But God forbid – to tell the Truth!

Premium Member Clarion Sea

Clarion calm sea
right before thunder;
A man wave boarding,
teens sit catching rays;
An emerald gleams;

No sweat beading 
on my iced drink;
Time moves gently,
I am spellbound;

Waves fly up 
choppy, bright;
A storm rise;

The tide’s 
moods swing

big.

For Alaina

The ocean above our heads is choppy, cold and everlasting. 
It glows 
with the crescent, the stars and its nubian beauty.

A Nubian beauty akin to yours my lover.
Let's strike out on that sea, let's climb that trellis and 

Show the earth a nova, strike them blind upon it!

Chum

Hunger, gelid, frigid, no nighty,
In a long coldly winter night,
Needy for a so big woodpile 
In dark, solo I had to chop
Details are good chop --
sticks chum pal up --
marks  choc-ice !!!
Choppy choosy !! 
Wood not woo !
Cook not coo !
Warming,
fire up,  
heat,
fill,

Premium Member Seasick

These high waters are worse than choppy
Scary roller coasters they copy
Our vessel tossed like a sailboat
We can barely stay above or afloat

This storm is the worst I’ve ever seen
It makes my stomach feel green
I am too ill to primp or preen
Tossed and turned like a kidney bean

60s Cool

60s Cool Level choppy, way cool fool, Hand slices the air, horizontal, cruel, {breathe, level choppy man} Way-cool of dudes, controls the day, If you aint cool? Depart I say, way-of-cool doth rule, Capisce ok … Don Johnson https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L2X8D2_TaPc

Premium Member "god Is My Shelter"

Since I do not relish spending time 
with sails aloft
in Satan's choppy waters.
I will seek to lay anchor,
in the stillness
of God's sheltered cove.
As one who knows
the worth of prayer,
I choose to use each calm day,
in preparation for life's storm
that invariably will follow.

Premium Member On a Windy Day Sail Boats Set Sail

It is a windy day
The sky is bright blue
With some fluffy clouds
A bright sunny day
It is time to go sailing
Sailors are enjoying
The wind pushing them
Along the choppy water
They will be out all day
Enjoying the wind and 
   waves
Later when at the shore
A party for all planned

Premium Member Fair Winds

Fair winds and following seas. May full sails surge with scudding breeze. May peaceful moorings host your craft wherever indulgent winds waft. A toast now to your safe return. May choppy seas be left astern. May evening offer pleasing berth to ensconce in halcyon firth.
