Springtime moving in

Winter vacating his house

Earth awakening

Premium Member The Stars Will Guide Us Home

I am longing for our souls to fly amongst the cosmos.
While we are all slowly dying, I find myself trying
Everything to win your love and heart back before our departing.

Premium Member Before We Each Headed Home

Before we parted ways at the bus station, we tenderly kissed.
Before departing for my journey, I realized I'll be missed.
Before we met, we never thought we'd find a love like this.

Wildlife 35

A soaring and high-flying martin,
Was gliding before his departing,
But before his migration
There was some conflagration,
'Cause the bird right in front kept on fartin'!

fall weather has crept in, leaves are falling,
mornings now dark and quiet, 
songbirds are departing.

Candles
snuffed out,players
departing one by one-
the symphony becomes a
solo

Inspired by Haydn's Farewell Symphony(he wrote it as he felt the orchestra had been too 
long on the road!)

Return Love Those Meanderings

RETURN
Departing from oneself, rivers escape mountains at SOURCE
The meandering is not only to Sea; meandering home, roots, too ...
By way of the Universal Ocean. Waters blend salty and fresh!

Premium Member the home never departed

There seems a 

departing from

innocence and

meaninglessness

to fill a role and

discover  meanings 

in what seems

happening~

yet meaningless is

the home never 

departed~~

Hands of Giants

Hands of Giants

Morning window, orange sunrise.
Ice crystals of frost slightly obscuring

winnter black trunks, tumultuous limbs;
hands of giants waving good morning 

for last night's departing gale!

Deep Shadows of Autumn

DEEP SHADOWS OF AUTUMN


The departing sun low in the sky sees
Trees weeping into a carpet of russet shades
And hears birds’ silent chorus of mourning
In the deep shadows of autumn
As they gather strength for the cold ahead

A Hair-Raising Tale

A short-sighted barber named Dave
Bid folks to 'Sit down and be brave!'
With ears and neck snipped,
Departing they quipped:
Whew! That was a very close shave!'

When Darkness Grows

The time past eve
when darkness grows,
and stars arrive 
in velvet carriage,
'tis a time of lending
dreams to romance,
as gentle kisses prosper,
lifting hope
for lives entwined;
and hearts remember
way beyond
their departing.

Premium Member The Flight of Time


Time flies with pace, mutely, unheard,
Each moment a departing bird,
A whispered breeze, a fleeting thought,
The battles lost, the lessons taught,
Time squandered in vain is lost time,
Let`s make the most when the heart chimes.

Sunrise

you disappear

like the sun

pulling the night

softly behind

you like a curtain

departing

 

and if the sun

does not rise

in the morning

I will wait there

in the darkness

waiting for you

to returrn

 

forever

Departing Soul

The sweet, sweet smell of a departing soul.

Your face blurring with my tears,

as your warm hand grows cold.


The sound of children weeping breaks the heart,

with tears flowing down their cheeks,

salty kisses to part.

Premium Member Departing Words

You have nothing to forgive, you have nothing to forget.
You have nothing to re live, you have nothing to regret.
You have nothing to be afraid of, you have nothing but my respect.
You have nothing ever again to ever worry about, because you are dead.

Premium Member The Sneeze

The Sneeze

We seem to act
Of our own volition..
Departing this place
Of our own volition..
Coffee..not tea..
Unquestioned choosing..
But does the simple sneeze
Unfurl the question:
Is there volition..?
Are all events really
Sneeze events...?

Bright Lights City Skies

Departing from the train as arriving unto a new towns station..
Quitely gazing about and a wisp of cool air lifting my silk dress
Stealing a peek without under garments of which I never wear
Waltzing while swirling its greetings kisses upon, my bare flesh.

Lift - Off .

The " Airhead "  Spaceship  was  starting .

The  Astronaut " Bimbo "  departing .

She  really  looked  cute

In  her  skin-tight  space  suit .

A definite  no-no , was  farting .
