Rouse a gust of wind
To blow away the cobwebs in my mind.
I'd beseech it take these haunting memories
If it would be so kind.

When the west wind blows wildly
And the winter seems too long
Will we all be tired and weary
To find wonder in the springtime song

Feelings

Feelings…
like wisps of cobwebs clinging,
cannot be shaken away.

They lie there,
unwelcome and unbidden,
Like unwanted guests come to stay.

Premium Member Birth Of My First Poem



Dad's workshed dusty
cobwebs, cans and jars hold stuff
old tools hang on hooks. 
That day I wept my Dad's death
and my first poem was born.

A drainpipe full of leaves
fallen like every dream,
as time silently thieves 
moments of happiness,
gifting melancholy 
like cobwebs on the eaves.

Beyond My Reach

I shift my focus inward
I hum gently till the vibrations resonate
~ chanting clears my mind's cobwebs

In my weary old mind, in a very old house. What will I see or find? Running around a mouse, ghosts of the past and spouse. Cobwebs blow in the wind.

Cleaning House

My wife and I went up to the loft the other day
And I cleaned it with her while we were there
But oh dear now there is all hell to pay
As I cant get the cobwebs out of her hair

Killing the Spider

All her fears
Were based on a lie
If you deal with the lie
The fears will die.

She dealt with the lies
Bottled up inside her
Not cleaning the cobwebs
But killing the spider.

Tableau

An elderly television speaks to her
in a deaf duplex. Her garden is a cluster of cobwebs, it rattles and spins its gossamer skeletons by the shade of a spidery light.

Premium Member Cobwebs

cob webs gather in the quiet corner
congregating mind dust
adhering to the vacant synapses
vibrating in the heat of random thought.

Snowdrops

I remember snowdrops
in the fledgling spring,
in the veins of sleet
where the mill torrent raged.
How bejewelled cobwebs
to the reeds would cling,
and how all but that memory
has aged...

Staircase To Heaven 2

i whisper in her inner ear
staircase to heaven
i know
lets get this cobwebs off
clean our thoughts
i know
we slip on the semanic pool
land in the burning
fire
then kiss in guilt and
despair

Tears

tears spurted out like arterial blood
tantalising cobwebs on the roof of flood
tearing hearts fed on love delivered
tangentially proverbs choked
halla lameni biscraho barassed
premas bulando keglig pharised

winter fog welcomes the dawn
and obscures the light--
cobwebs shimmer
necklaced to the hedge

Another Cup of Coffee

Another cup of coffee
to break the cobwebs of dreaming sleep
to greet the rising sun rays of the new day
to break the morning of February midwinter
to wake me wide-eyed and ready
for the tasks of life of ahead.

hanging from the trees
winter fog welcomes the dawn
and obscures the light--
cobwebs shimmer

Home

A old house.
A place with cobwebs.
A crow that calls.
A little princess that sings she 
fly’s above the house.
She waves her wand that shows her life.
She looks up to the crow it could have 
been this or that.

We Will Never Forget Whats His Name

We saw his boots behind a barn door,
his hat on a peg gathering cobwebs,
the dust of his skin in a dustbin.
He was a last straw in a hay stack.
Yet we all said we remembered him
while we drank beer to 'what's his name.
