computer mouse gone
the puppy is contrite
hangs head with guilt
remote is missing
Buddy avoids our eyes
secret stash somewhere
whistling cowboy
mothers pink cheeks
apology

How merry could the old bachelor be?
We decided to set him up, times three.
He was polite.
Not contrite.
He then demanded life privacy.
A Didactic Cinquain Heart -
Heart
Unfeeling, contrite
Pulsing, pithing, crying
Ever so broken

An alien snatched my wife one strange night,
To planet Speed, they took her in flight.
But the alien confessed,
She'd been sorely unimpressed,
So back home, he returned her, contrite.

Resistant to the light, we crouch in fright ~
Bemused by lower mind, we feel contrite
How long with fear, will we thus trauma bond ~
Ignite bliss within, by love’s magic wand

A heavy heart
Makes for a new start
Life is finite
Time to be contrite
Apologies for recommending life
Insurance brings less strife
Farewell my friends, good
Others will save and invest for your brood
Super Moon presides
Laconic application
Devouring life and soul
They say it’s a curse
Shivers replace the heart beat
Unwelcome changes imposed
The mindset for one
Howling beasts inside contrite
Affection withdrawn
After Being Contrite,
Daisy Effortlessly Flirted,
Going Home In
Jasper's Kayak;
Likely
Mimicking
Nonsensical Opinions,
Previously Qualified;
Regarding
Sailors
Tattoo's,
Unaware
Vain Wizards Xrayed Yellow Zebras!
I lied about
where we went.
I lied about
what we did.
It was
good bonding.
The cops ruined
our sibling spree.
I am sorry.
You weren’t
supposed to find out.
We didn’t know what was in store.

Listen to poem:
The long guns trained upon my fragile refuge,
yet still to find forgiveness in contrite cadence' known.
Will you discover the dream has died-
in defiance of a love so giving...
to find the day's child-like grasp,
of world and wonder worth living.
Listen to poem:
Serenity is to know what's right'
Eyes that peer in, beyond what's seen'
Nurturing our feelings with no regrets contrite.
Sensing the world, with consciously culled delight.
Exploring touch, smell, taste in ways foreseen.
Prawn and Winkle Custard
Prawn and Winkle Custard
A delicacy and delight
Much nicer than Pilchard Jelly
Sounds disgusting and contrite
I’m partial to Bat wing stew
Though not to the taste of all
But as for Squid legs soup
Yuk, that makes my Stomach crawl
A Wookiee, the Wolfman and Jaws
Broke all of the Halloween laws
The shark got first bite
And was not contrite
His friends crawled away on their paws

Soft white
light shining bright,
manifests before us
in vibrant stillness of the night,
as God, our Father, speaks to us gently,
saying we need not feel contrite,
since karma’s washed away,
in healing light,
soft white.

My heart secures fright,
Forced into the light,
My soul so contrite,
My words become trite,
Hear my lonely plight.
I feel her cries,
Disclaiming sighs,
Without my lies,
Breaking all ties,
My love knew
Lies in view,
Breaking clue,
Shall she,
Blind me,
Mad
Fading light; our joy throbs lessen
Aversion contracts heart
Love alone makes our soul glisten
To so be, simply start
Hermit, be vigilant
Of each thought, cognisant
Make ego decadent
Heart contrite
Fading light

Quietus
Throughout my heart's chatter
Love does not matter
For when it's not confirmed
Concessions will turn
Though contrite loneliness soon burns
A coupling that's so desire
To consume loves burning fire

At you're peril
Should you choose to disregard
Believing it's humor to dark
Once understood
Becomes instantly funny
Bang on the money
As it parodies life
The absolutely absurd
That you could not write
As so contrite
The human plight
Is comedy gold
Destined never to grow old
I thought I would write something shiny and bright
Then lost the thought and wanted to be contrite
So here I sit in front of a blank page
When all I can feel is a "Nothingness Rage"
How do I get myself out of this plight?
The humble man stands before God,
Contrite, and aware he is flawed;
As each day begins
He confesses his sin
Then kneels before God and is awed.
The flawless man stands there as well
Convinced he has no sin to tell
And that God is his equal
Which leads to his sequel
Of life everafter -- in hell.
To be alone in the dark
to dark deeds of demons hark.
Heart contrite nurtured by sprites,
fear not foes unseen,but fight,
to gain the gales of flight
of your soul uncaged divine,
and thank the Gods for man's flight.
Live in joy of heart's delight,
and fear not fights,but be kind.
Be strong,but not violent.
I'm leaving my soup,
I've had my fill,
one more slurp,
and I'll fall ill,
ran out of letters,
can't spell a word,
(so I've heard)
like jeopardy,
the wheel it spins,
some contestants,
never win,
with much contrite,
and my last bite,
I swallow words,
already ingested.
what the question was
contemplator put on pause
shifting instead into trance reverie
postulating consequences of asymmetry
ballet thus enacted in perfection of delight
treat for the soul yet we are contrite
because what the question was
was by artist put on pause
