Short Conserving Poems

Stark naked and bare
Creepers conserving new life 
Vines in wintertime

felines
on window's perch
now drowsy in the sun
conserving their energy for
midnight....

Orange glowing in a field of green
Or along a mountain side.
Silky petals reach toward the sun
And dance in the spring breeze.
At night they cup their faces
Conserving strength for tomorrow....

Cradled in your arms 
A peaceful lullaby                                       
The look in your eyes 
Content and conserving
The child in my heart
I feel you observing 
When I close my eyes 
I feel so deserving 
Of your love!...

My mind often stores images of daily events good and not so good for prolong periods of illusions ( Time) past, present. Noe I reboot my hard drive of anything underserving of interference of my data, cpu’s, peace constantly being restored in my mind....

All Things About South

Every thing about South is  worth preserving,
Down to last bit and we should be conserving;
For long while,
Southern style,
And whole place we feel like we are desrving.

Charleston. He also went to Hemmingway, SC

Holding on tightly- 
open to the dreams, 
pondering produces pain- 
enduring engages entitlement. 

Along the way- walls, 
novels not yet written- 
dying in the corner. 

Calligraphy conserving life- 
holding on dearly, 
a frame for future fragrance- 
neither scars nor wounds- 
grandeur grants greatness, 
especially once hope is found....

Moonlight
hits my face
like some soft
low pressure
water conserving
shower head
And I dance
in its spray
thinking of
pure lunacy,
Wishing I could
tug moonbeams
straight into my pores
And then,
I watch
myself floating
along in a gondola
holding stars in my hand
I light our way
through a puzzling
but beautiful
labyrinth of feelings...

In the hub of action
strangers’ faces
pass by in a blur
rushing and racing
too busy to connect
smiles in absentia
their on switch off
most probably
conserving energy
overwhelmed
exhausted
barely keeping up
with the pace
of living

All I want you is you
Your love is true
you always take my breath away
but I'm not leaving, atleast not today.
I want you to love me for eternity
cause I feel that you are every part of me.
I'm surrounded by your embrace
You're everything i need & more
You're my conserving grace
For you, i would walk  a thousand miles
You're the only one I want
& i'm addicted to you now.........

Upright with concern

   sinking inward

    conserving it's strength

   many balanced on it's shoulders

   relying on it to stand steady and strong

   thousands of stories told

   many slept with their hands tucked in it's ceases

   leaving memories for it to keep

    some laughed while others cried

   in the softness of it's heartbeat

   it's a mystery how it stands there 

   without defeat.........

My energy I conserve, 
Not for the guests seats
I have yet to reserve
Nor for their paid meat
I should carefully preserve…
Squarely for the nice treat
My boys deserve.

Their negligence I’ve grasped
And at it gasped
And hands of shock clasped!

Now, my voice to be a rasp
And my sting that of a wasp:
Welts to on skin break out,
Pain-enduring lips pout;
In drug stores no liniment
For their energy-backed punishment....
