There once was a young frog named Darren
Who was taught a fable to scare him
If a princess tries kissing
You may soon go missing
When she turns into a great heron...

A certain poet - by the name of Darren White,
Said - my limerick is completely alright.
I agree with him,
I have self esteem.
For this purpose I came to this site!...

Perception


while djinnis cackle

I craft poetry
in this room 
with both hands tied

I compose
on white walls
with an imaginary blue pen

Lion or Chimpanzee

What if a lion I were to be
Out in field so handsome to see
Or could be leopard who is spotted;
Could tell was him hugely dotted;
Swinging through tree was chimpanzee.

Memorable moments of a night out,

             Rhapsodic or horrendous,
 
                 I ought to be a girl !

Your golden heart,
sets others apart.
Your gentle way,
shall never stray.
From the other side,
our worlds collide.
Your nature divine,
which is hard to find.
For your tender age,
you are quite the sage....

A WISH

He holds out both his hands
eyes closed, and aimed up high
a wish escapes, it flies
and on a star it lands
that wishes it could give
the means and will to live

"Here am I, 
finally alone"
says this gravestone
placed on my bones.

I wonder why...

How long I have to sigh
under its monotone
grave good-bye?

What was once a matching pair are now so very far apart
You hold one key, I hold the other, you are forever in my heart

I use the key daily, and it always reminds me of you
A gift unique and special and I know you use yours too

She’d thought he was eyeing her rack

as with great charm, he led her out back.

But she realized too late

this would be her last date

as her neck got sucked dry by a Drac!

There is a dragon named Darren
His scales gleaming gold and obsidian  
Lore, emotions, magic, protection
These are his specialties

He is guide, friend, and mentor
Without him I would be
One of the soulless dead
Consuming all who draw near

Average days 
Pass in a haze
And sometimes leave us low
But 'purple days' are special days
With a wonderful magical glow
Filled with happiness and joy
For all the world to see
Hope your days are 'purple days'
And set your spirit free

fringed rifts tear
aside a curtain
ragged with light 
stage is prepared
soft murmurs
grow into roars
voice raises to
a deafening scream
that erupts and whips
waters with
thundering applause

this poem is dedicated to Darren, the green bard and warrior
there is a bard gentle but still a fighter for the right cause
there is a bard who knows how to listen and when to speak
there is a bard who heals 
there is a bard who has saved me with
music
word
and
deed...

Translucent fishes in shallow water
Graze our nails curiously.
I nibble your bronzed neck...

Crystalline summer fantasies.

Polished pebbles ripple,
Curious shoreline gestures
Around our lazy afternoon dream.

Dracula was in a fix
Blood and sweets just do not mix
The dentist had no doubt
The fangs had to come out
Goodbye to vampire’s tricks.

Sound currents
     invisible caresses
     on sensitive skin
resonate

Rays of sunlight
     dazzled display 
     adorns brown curls
radiate

Pirouette whirls
     personal cyclone
     lifts off
surges up

crests the arc
     internal elation 
     revels in the moment 
timeless...

Love is a trilogy
Held always in our hearts
Its fragrance captures one
Right from the start

Love is a Ballet
Explosion of emotion
That spins our senses
In a dizzying pirouette

Love casts silhouettes
Soft and gently spun
Highlighting all they touch
In colourful hues...

On the occasion of a friend being given a very short time frame to prepare a seasonally appropriate poem for a radio program.

Gail's on in the morning
so here is your warning
she's not on for long,
just after a song,
before the news,
taking her cues,
From Darren 
Not Sharon 
Her slot
Is shot
Long 
Gone....
