The Walls of Notre Dame

the syrupy smile of the chimeras and griffins remove the flesh from our bones roam the walls of Notre Dame


A Love Story In Notre Dame

With a rhythmic spell,
Quasimodo sounds his bell
In his tortured hell,
Esmeralda hears him yell
From his hunchback prison cell.

Memories of Norte Dame

Here is where I really do want to begin;
Spirit and memories will remain within;
Great goal;
Bells toll;
History will have to start over again.

There Was a Strange Dame In Vancouver

There was a strange dame in Vancouver
who insisted on being a hoover.
She sucked in much dust
till her health went bust
and the council had to remove her.

Premium Member Dame Van Dyke

Dame van Dyke now reclines and relaxes,
while her lady-in-waiting re-waxes
      bristled shadowy skin
      of her chinny-chin-chin...
the vexation of vain battle-axes.

Premium Member Dame Tamer

Someone had called him the Dame Tamer.
Rugged good looks made him no shamer.
	Alone, he wore a pink rose
	and a gold ring through his nose.
His close friends knew him as a flamer.

Out on a calm day, wind would gust she didn’t know
She was in distress when it swirled up her kimono.

Premium Member A Surfing Dame

She stood on the ironing board frame
Where waves of clothes she’d tame
She surfed on thoughts high
Inside the barrel green room a dame
Landing on the blue waves she did fly!

A Dame From Brisbane

A haughty dame from far Brisbane,                                                          Looked on others with sheer disdain,
She spoke in a huff,
Her manner was rough,
She was put in an asylum for the insane.

Premium Member From Mermaid To Dame

There once was a mermaid called Jane
Who swam all the way to Spain.
   Where she met a senor,
   Head over heels in adore
From mermaid, she turned into a dame.

Dame Bllame Game

when with much anguish
you will find what you do wish
in liter languish

head had hit the roof
up Trump always sure to goof
need burden of proof

Trump would play a game
why me would anyone blame
disturbed by a dame

Premium Member Nd - On Recalling Notre Dame

wandering quaint streets 
long ago with my small group,
we view Notre Dame

graceful Parisian essence . . .
fire can’t devour memories

Dame

Can only smoke remain visible to thee?
I arraign the distance carved out in gashes.
Proximity charred me to ashes,
Left me to burn, yet never felt the flame.
One glare from the dazzling dame,
To burn one's own nest, how absurd!
Blazed my heart, that sunbird.

Notre Dame Cathedral

Nortre Dame Cathedral, 
ancient and regal
devoured by smoke and flame
history lost, stones crumble
who is to blame?

water and flame fight
deep into the April night
Parisians in the streets
watch the lady's defeat
mournful songs fill the smokey air

in the morning, hearts in mourning
will the Grand Dame of Paris still be there?

Crying Shame For Crying Name

A crying shame 
To fetch oneself a crying name 
From regularized dirty game 
Choosing to not be The Tame,
Forgetting where from we came 
Good and Evil treating as same; 
The soul damning for fame 
And oneself ceaselessly blame 
The Once – Pretty, Shriveled Dame 
Having chosen to be the Spiritual Lame 
To paradise laying not a claim.

* Notre Dame ( Our Lady) took 107 years to build between the 12th and 13th century and for 850 years stood as the guardian of Paris, alas , it took only 30 minutes to be turned into ashes by a vicious fire!

Notre Dame De Paris

Our Lady of Paris
With your ribbed vaults
Flying buttress
And rose colored windows
The Huguenots
The Republicans
Couldn't destroy you
Victor and Quasimodo
Loved you
Napoleon restored you
Fire couldn't destroy you
Your spire fell
But your spirit
Your cross
Still shines

Parisian Skies

The skies of Paris were lit up
in 1940, when the Luftwaffe 
rained down armament...

Burned again in student riots
in 1968, with the protests
against parliament

Then again an apartment block
In 2019, Feb, arson after a 
neighbours' argument

And now the skies light up once more 
In 2019, now Our Lady's flames 
on the firmament

Life of a Hamlet Dame

Life of a hamlet dame is,
Akin to a caged warbler...

As it's wings are clipped
So,is the dame's pin...
Confabulating with a lad 
Is a sin...

As the warbler sings for freedom 
Through the bars of the rages...
So,the dame dreams of freedom 
Through the bars of the cases...

As the caged warbler is ignorant,
About the joy of freedom 
So,is the hamlet dame...

This Dame

Expectations arise from all margins 
To be an enhanced consort, mother or operative 
 My contents oppressed, condensed to insignificant  
How can I give God what I lack? 
Cultivate my lord this dame in me

I can’t say exactly what it is 
That keeps me sane in this world  
I constantly fall for the same ploy 
And expect to receive deferent outcomes 
Liberate my lord this dame in me

Notre Dame Du Bois Joli

En route avec le Seigneur on l'a suit
Aucun regret
Parmis la forêt
Mes pionniers
Vous avez bien trouvés
Lesson d'amour
Au secours
Apprendre à partagé
Vous avez bien semés
Dieu retrouve en moi
Choix de sa foix
Au temps du respect
Une jeunesse imparfaite
Mon Dieu je te demande pardon
Merci de vos leçons
Plus de souffrance
Viens on danse
Tu te rapproche
Au fait des roches
Du village petit
L'épiphanie

Notre Dame

Long ago at Notre Dame
In the concert sang I
And afterward something new
The first time I met fans
Walking out of the hall
Many people saw I
And for reasons I don’t understand
They all wanted me
To tell me how
They all like the show
Loved the songs I'd sung
They all wanted me to touch
I didn't know what to do
Years have passed from that day
As still indeed I say
I do not know what to do
When ever I meet a fan

Dreamy Idyllic Impressions

Fly butterflies red and blue,
Being dazed by a rainbow  
That dawns on her fairy face,
Well adorned with golden hue.
This dame must dawn a festive 
Moment: a lovely wedding, 
Yet the sad tale her eyes tell
Crumbles my idyllic dream.

Premium Member It's a Crying Dame

Yeah I signed on to the Me Too campaign.
Gender abused? Add my name!
So many of my girlfriends posting the same;
Playing the whose been raped or molested game.
Not usually political and such an old refrain,
But if you think we've got equity you'd better think again!
Not just another dame jumping on this train,
Nearly every woman I know, with nothing to gain
Has to this sad list of affairs added her name.

Could there be safety in numbers calling shame?
