Mary, Mary quite contrary
This is what I want to know
With an Adams apple
And the razors dapple
Are you really a girl, yes or no?

The colors drift
With the winds of winter
Drafts dapple and draw
A sequence of life
Ever changing
But always the same
Once it begins
It never ends
And so life goes…

Upon a dapple steed, his goal: To make his maiden’s pairing whole. They trod a meadow grassy, bare Hope wanes he’ll find her slipper there He is the dark knight of her sole…

Outside the classroom
Sun and cloud dapple the vale
Thrush rehearses triple phrase

The while overhead
Lark ascends in descant stream
Studies the Elysian scene

Premium Member The Seeker

Some seek truth
in clear, sweet 
streams -- a
dapple of sun,
a capture of beams --  

Some seek truth in
deep, salty seas -- 
thinking truth, God's  
sunken mysteries -- 

I find truth
in your devoted, loving
eyes; and if that is
not truth, then I will
settle for lies….

Nature Gogyohka

Crystal dew nestle on meadow,                      
     Snowy mist caress the peaks,                            
     Bright dapple of sunlight shift,                           
          As breeze stir the leaves,                                    
      Nature awakes anew with life.

Premium Member Once a Spring Breath

Dapple, broken rainbow upon my heart, A light within and existential angst. Once a spring breath that danced, now falls apart. Dapple, broken rainbow upon my heart, A moment of you captured in my art. Hours move forth, you fade away, with much angst. Dapple, broken rainbow upon my heart, A light within and existential angst. 8/29/2022

Premium Member The Ramble

I follow the track with a spectacular view,
into a wood with its carpet blue.
A winding path to the field below 
through an ancient green lane where primroses grow.
I watch a swallow swoop and pass 
above a meadow lush with grass.
Quench my thirst in dapple shade 
midst waving stalks which seed,then fade.
Homeward I wend in loosestrife knee high 
alongside a stream trickled dry.

Premium Member Sundrops

Sundrops dapple umbrageous trees strewing uncut diamonds, littering the path with ambient flickers of what lies beyond. Sundrops freckle ocean's surface accenting the ripples that pattern the waves, nuzzling playful kisses toward the warm beach. Sundrops seduce the wayward wind pirouetting with the aphids blissful dance, a frenzied tarantella across my lips.

Dapple Winter

Dapple winter sky dune
mingle with drizzle frost tunes.
A stroll through winter wonderland
hand in hand we shuffle new fallen snow.
Ice maidens dance in the blowing winds.

Frostbitten feels my fingertips,
my lips you warm with ember thought kisses.
Oh, how I love the winter brisk meeting
with you at my side and a full lifes ride.
Come now winter blow the seasons
magic travel near and far.

Kitchen Window Reverie

Kitchen window reverie
with the sun streaks flooding through the inchworm green leaves of the China Berry tree.
Walls dapple dancing
with mottled shadows mirroring the underwater sunlight ripples filtered through the fluid 
sea.
Delight in my mother’s eyes
with creation on her finger tips and Russian Gypsy blood like fire in her veins
Smiling with elation at the simplest of life’s pleasures
Living within the luxury of her means.

My Hot Dogs

Two small dachshunds 
Fill my soul
They have their own 
personalities
One named Rocky 
Cute silver dapple
Smiles as he runs
And eats with delight
The other named Gavin
A tiny terror as he thinks 
He's bigger than his bite
His joyous times
Are also running and rolling
Chasing birds and anything 
That moves 
These are my loves as they
Continue to grow 
I'm a proud dog parent
Seeing and being
With them 
Brings me great joy

Cripple Causing a Ripple

He was born a full cripple,
Who is now causing ripple,
Unleashed shock waves a triple;
Soon to catch some disciple...

As cripple had sucked nipple,
Fed flesh fifty times supple:
'The most blessed cripple'—Sample
Mum's testimonies —Ample...
Of his mother's eyes—Apple
Though on his body Dapple
And the redness of maple...

At twelve could his mates cripple,
Rash harsh orders give people.
"To rupture it is simple:
Quickly take off my pimple!"

Apple of My Eye

Love is like a juicy, apple,
for those of us,
who wish to dapple,
Lucious, fresh and red,
first your dating,
then you wed,
sometimes it can get quite sour tasting,
and you wonder,
the time your wasting,
but mostly crisp and sweet,
though love,
I's rarely ever neat,
you may divide it into slices,
times that are good,
and those times in crisis,
but don't pick thatt poisen apple,
from that apple tree,
for may may deeply regret,
your future destiney.

Muted Midday

Naked pure newborn Eden, unashamed
                Soles step intrepid on spongy moss 
                Quadrant of tropical dapple claimed 
                Fruits in Winterless heart's emboss 


    Limbs mingle, indulged by marquee manuevres 
           Ponder labyrinth piths without hindrance
    Sultry poetry compiled among canopy soothing 
            Canoe traverses untold as fingerprints

Premium Member New Eyes

Listen to poem:
How did I not see this before?
The green of the trees
 with their cornucopia of shades
Layered and punctuated periodically
 with a unique dapple of light
Amid the litany of man's failing 
 concrete towers
The leafy giants stride imperceptibly 
 towards notoriety 
Saving the planet
 one gramme at a time
As the humans race past.
The leisurely somnambulants
 biding, stretching, organically
  rooted in their dancing
   to the alternate tune
    of Nature's longevity

Premium Member Dawn Awakes

Autumn's moon truly radiant and playful, 
    In a stippled and midnight blue hues.

  Fragile is the troth with nature. 
    Falling, trembling, withered leaves, 
      Drift throughout gravel beneath; 
        Dapple shadow cast across the ground in stillness. 

  Silence surge as nascent darkness draws. 
    Snappish breeze, spring up slicing through darkness, 
      Lays a gentle kiss, and it slowly fades.

  Stillness, a breath, the wakeful light of dawn awakes.
