Short Comprising Poems

I'm sorry for making you sad,
I'm sorry for getting mad.

I'm sorry I wasn't being understanding,
I'm sorry I wasn't comprising.

I'm sorry my love, I broke your heart,
'cuz now my world is torn apart....

Fear is paralyzing.
It can be a thief, robbing a person of joy.
Comprising
Trembling, sweating
It can cause fast heart rate, poor boy. 
Getting 
Chest pain
Fear is the ploy.
Chained! 
Fear is paralyzing.
It can cause fast heart rate, poor boy.
Chained!!   ...

Rose Meadow, an outcast woman,
	portrayed by Fertie Fields.
The film chronicles her Pagan beliefs.
A supporting cast boasts
	Roland (Rollie) Hills and Hayden Hayfield.
	Cameos by Misty Marsh and Lily Lake.
Marquee brags of Nature’s spiritual mysteries
	comprising the life of Rose Meadow....

In our times, Shakespeare is finding it hard,
His poised quill and nerves constantly on guard,
The Alehouses serve no mead,*
He can't drive a metal steed,
But, Starbucks Mocha doth maketh the Bard

Solstice
                          Tween season
                     Heated, hot, season
                 Between spring and autumn
             Comprising northern hemisphere
                   Acclimatized, condition
                                Seasons

Silent and still, our wasted strength
waited for the dawn
to pry open day’s magnificent creation.
We waited for morning’s breath
to kiss the daylight into us
and take the star-light from our eyes.
You were a contagious infliction
for which there was no cure.
We were two lovers laying in the wilderness,
comprising the night....

Recognizing life's fields need steady crop rotation
Each of their grains harvested requires separatization
Safely stored in silos of compartmentalization
Red lights flash consistently on the horizon
Emptiness found in the words comprising
Tomorrow is another day or so, I'm surmising
Perhaps one morning, I'll wake up more wizened...

My dear Selene
you continue
to amaze me...
tonight you took
my breath away
as I espied
the veiled beauty
of your flushed face
and like a fool
was lost for words!

Action and relation
Comprising our togetherness
Our moving parts pulsate and arrange
Lost in being and fantasy

Consolidation is the skin
A membrane that keeps growing
Fluid exploration fills the room
Im swirling inside you

Climbing through a final womb
Dreams come wilder in pace
In an instant supplied and transported
Everything gestated in woman's wake...

I followed a single snowflake
On its free-fall journey to earth.
Obscured by its frozen, cloned kind
Landed silently camouflaged
Like a virgin parachutist
Whose achromatic flake added
To the cumulative beauty
Of a wintery afternoon.
At that moment I realized
Beauty was not a single truth
But a delightful harmony
Of invisible qualities
Comprising the form of beauty
Most often sadly overlooked....

How warm the sun upon my face
The morning beauty fills my sight;
With creative, expressive grace
Coloured blue,yellow green and white.
                    A solstice June
                    Mid-summer tune
Fills heart and mind with pur delight.

Under a sky of celadon -
   I watched bees huddle
In frenzied expectation
   Of riding a flaxen petal.

Lupine and globe mallow
   Danced about while sage
Waved at me from below -
   Comprising my entourage.

I saw pale butterflies mingle
   Within dewy creosotes
Then came an argent gale
   Which tugged at their cloaks

And then - the drape shifted
   But my vision proves true -
A celadon echo gifted
   To me that sunny interlude....

R-hythmic sound is played, 
O-n the twenty-second of January; 
M-ind is lulled to deep sleep, 
W-hile pausing in activity. 
E-ars hear the rhythmic sound, 
L-istening to the golden voice; 
L-ife is truly pleased, as the soul and spirit rejoice. 

R-hythmic sound of the heart 
E-xpresses beautiful beat; 
V-ibrationn on the floor though 
I-s caused by thundering feet. 
T-empo, accent, and meter in the movement are found; 
A-n aspect of music comprising the elements of rhythmic sound....
