Clairaudient Claire

Clairaudient Claire clambered to cling to her cliquish closeted clan
Clutching cloistered clues, clarifying a clumsily closed clergyman.

Growing Pain's.......

Tragedy of human affairs
        fledgling...a comedy of errors
             incidental....accidental
    awkward,as we clumsily stumble

Comes-

the creative computers come cleverly
COMES the creepy controls come creatively
comes the clever countries collides comes clumsily

Contrast Comparisons

Comedic contortionist claims clubfeet;
consider carefully, circus clowns cheat.
Chico chipped Carson City's carved concrete
clumsily chiseling cheap cardboard containers.
Charlatans can calm capitol complainers
confounding Congressional campaigners.

Clumsy chubby chimpanzee counts cherry cheesecake cases covering corner combined clear ceramic counters.

Canny cat catches canary 

Cunning cat chases crazy chattering chipmunk clumsily can't close chubby cheeks 'cause chaotically  cramming chocolate covered cordial cherries

A Childhood Memory

Memory stored the smile I wore when I learned how to walk, rather than crawl, my first trial. I seldom sat though I'd often clumsily fall, kersplat! A clown as I recall, down. Memory stored the smile, though I'd often clumsily fall down. (Minichu)

Protagonist

PROTAGONISTS

Protagonist
Finds himself alone
On stage
Performance frozen
Smiles clumsily
A hidden hand
In shade
A stab from behind.

Vacant seats
Bated footsteps
Dust and delusion
Close to dusk
Protagonist wails
'Screw me
I've to deliver
My arch dialogue
Et too.............
Then fall me'

Protagonist
Finds himself alone
On stage
Performance frozen
Smiles clumsily.
A hidden hand
In shade
A stab from behind.

Vaccant seats
Bated footsteps
Dust and delusion
Close to dusk.

'Screw me
I've to deliver
My arch dialogue

My Simple Valentine Story

dancing clumsily - shy blue cowboy eyes smiling. . . . he swept me away marriage fast foreknown - no proposal from his lips. . . . just lots of kisses my man of few words tells me, “I’ll always love you”. . . . few words are true words

Clumsily

Risky unflawed breathing flawed by your touch,
you hit like an endless electric shock;
I try to evade not hang on too much,
each exit I am met with a roadblock;
Feet in the air a game of double dutch 
my pulse in my throat with all the sweet talk;
Suddenly I fall your hands land on me;
Smiling heart spills on the floor clumsily.

A Nation's Nightmare

He's off-the-wall
Unprecedented gall
A human catcall

Sins and grins
Feels no chagrin
Conscience of tin

Lies and fibs
Speaks in mad-libs
Smack in the ribs

Text and tweets
Clumsily browbeats
Brutally mistreats

It's no joke
Hatred's unyoked
Violence stoked

Is he secretly rootin'
For another shootin'?

Evening Ember Glow

Written: March 14, 2025, for contest Sponsored by: Constance La France ***************** After the rain, the air smells musty and moist, and smoke swirls clumsily upward from chimneys, as they float away, the leaves crackle and rattle. Mulled wine soothes the spirit on cold nights, our eyes feast on the blazing fire as the sun sets.

The Story of Love

The story of love

Tash Mahal built by a prince
for a wife, he loved despite having many spouses.
A beautiful palace admired for its architecture
and reduced to mere splendour.
On a narrow road going uphill, I came across
a clumsily built cement block
made by a boy who loved Maria Emilia
 Thorny bushes overgrew his work.
Yet, it was here I sat down and cried for lost love.

Computer Lab Blues

Today, I brought my earbuds. 
So, while I'm surfing 
Facebook™ 
 in the computer lab 
I can listen to music 
on youtube at the same time. 
I clumsily molest the 
backside of the dusty monolith, 
as my left ring finger 
discovers an abrasive crust. 
Someone broke off  
their headphone plug 
in the jack.

How do you manage that? 
Oh, tell me, lord almighty in the sky, so high. 


How do you manage that?

Beggar Shows Us a Mirror

The vagrant beggar in seeming drunken stupor Clumsily staggers about hither and thither No one truly wishes to lessen his pain Turning backs on him with disdain Now and then a half hearted benefactor Presses into his hands unusable note in tatters We watch from a distance, ebbing flame of conscience To glowing heart hardening resistance by our egos indifference 15-May-2021

Croydon

Indisputably bankrupted deux times
boardings on stalled windows
Recession unproofed
bundles of betwichted people aloff
clumsily lost Waitrose
and still the Fairfield roof leaks
Queens gardens is no longer bespoke
its tenable for climbing children

We've still not lost the war
culture exists
and I'm eternally grateful
Poets Anonymous
and Poets hour at the library
provides the same echo
of the past

The pen which started it all

I traipse my fingers delicately across spiralled letters of each written word and dated times 

The clumsily transitioned Thoughts are transferred on to pages full of Passion and expressive rhyme.

Splattered,stained and ink spilled journal, with it's torn ridge spine ,misspellings and crooked lines ,  

Reading the moment a daydreaming story teller and her poetic adventures began, such beginnings were mine

O, Why, Why, Why

I left the pages of my book clumsily open, the phone off the hook and what was said hanging; I walked for hours and hours, hallow inside, empty, the words said, echoing and my mind over and over; why, why, why . . . I silently screamed. ______________________ February 23, 2019 Poetry/Verse/Why, Why, Why Copyright Protected, ID 19-1117-689-02 All Rights Reserved. Written under Pseudonym.

Sand Man

On average
I operate on an acre 
of song grass
this past decade
its slowly filling
with stone and sand.

Once per lifetime
a vague law emerges from the brine
growling, childhood shall come to an end
gradually or suddenly
I was very adult like
to think the choice was ever mine.

Stone hovers clumsily 
over flesh and bone
life is painfully precious
living has become voracious
on this lonely acre of 
broken time
gull song 
sand.

Words For a Morning

The water wears a halo of mist
made gold by first light.
Two swans write their waking
on the soft glaze of a morning
as if tracing psalms 
to anoint the coming day. 
They bow their heads gracefully.
Clumsily, I bow mine.

I can almost feel each word
being transcribed across
the tightened surfaces of my mind.
I come to listen,
to hear something sacred
being said in a language 
I cannot decipher.
It is agonizingly beautiful.
Why am I so afraid ?

Curious Psyche

Bashfully, dimple-ly
Child-like  grin on my face
Naturally, clumsily 
Jumbled up speech all over the place

Often left wondering 
"Was I misunderstood?" 
A tad bit optimistic
Far too curious, for my own good

Dig a bit further, braincells debate
Thoughts come back to that family tree 
Is it destiny or some kind of fate
Search a bit deeper within my psyche
Discombobulated,  now I need a coffee.

Vision Warp

Three kittens clumsily trying to cuddle up to mother's bosom. Blind at birth, driven in their search for comfort. Feel of soft fur, soothing purr of their mother. Unopened eyes trying to view beyond the darkness of their world. Twelve limbs seeming to have minds of their own, all stepping in different directions, stumbling. Cuteness in the human realm. Their angst and desperation only known to them


Cuddly little toys
Searching for mother's warmth

The Love

The Lovers


 On my walks in the interior of Algarve
 I followed an overgrown track that once
had been a road for horse and carts.
At a clearing, I found a clumsily made shrine,
and on it with unsteady hands, was written
Pedro and Maria 1912.
I sensed an immense peace sitting here.
Love is enduring and everlasting.
Their tenderness is what I breathe 
in the trees and plants.
Later on when I was lonely and sad
I went up there and warmed my soul
on their love.
