And by others have been inspired.

All In Vain

Two-thirty in the morning at my window.
Moonlit dark centiment, I feel windblown.
Convict compliment,
heartless at sundown,
and as the morning comes
the need dies down.
At sunrise all is forgotten

Compliment

Taper your senses
Choose a way to plan your path.
Climb your own fences
Crack the ice and then laugh.
Sew the fate of your choice,
Don't turn you into them.
Every person has a voice,
And darling, yours is a gem.

Cool Virtue

Saying "thank you"
Best compliment
To helping hand.

Admit you're wrong
Is humbleness
Down earth virtue.

Show up on time
Is discipline
Is at its best.

Listen not break 
Is self-respect
To whom who talk.

Annual Limelight

The season's almost over,
and I hate seeing it leave
without a whisper,

complaint or compliment,
while poets
bask in literary sunlight,

thinking the moment is eternal.
April's month of poetry
is soon to end.

Love's Vitamins

Like the dietary suppliment
love takes its compliment
the feelings' growth
heart's strenght 
firm
steady
unshaken love
healthy and sound
true love finally found
heart beat, love's so proud.

We braced the city square
empty lyrics,
A shadow everywhere

Silhouettes mock awry

Sentences and limb darken
Already compliment

My Sweetheart

Her fares
Feed my fainting frame.

Her genial gesture
Graces my gut.

Her beauty
Bands my body.

Her care
Clads my clay.

Her spirituality
Spurs my spirit.

Her tender talk
Tickles my thought.

Her conviviality
Is my compliment.

Deceptively Bright

Prepackaged compliment,
  our badge of delight

Symbol and emblem,
—deceptively bright

A pandered acknowledgement,
—slap on the back

Others controlling,
  the acceptance we lack
