draping. Glassbraking.
Settled around the window's frame....

Spanish moss draping from trees
swaying in the breeze...

Lights up imagination in all its splendor --draping light upon.''...

instincts instigate impulse
draping dream diadems
watering wafting wants
tilling till time teaches
fears freeze freedom
lucid love liberates...

rushing waters fall
as of sweet rhythmic curtains,
draping moss and stone

Painting sky before I was born,
Draping my grave in leaf and acorn.

balmy cool
whispers and lulls
draping around me playfully

        draping  
       hern hips
     her dome's 
        tresses
       it's thick

past it's cinnamon 

     redolence
     sweet wet
        mine
         lips

fabulous confab
concurring, conjoining, draping
significant rendezvous  in tandem 
coiled  hearts

Merriment gone like smoke, loneliness sets in.
Worse than that one feels when living alone.
A look at the stage
Finds it empty with draping curtain.
who knows
who knows
Where do her chamber windows close?...

Evening was draping dark
Shrouds of yesterday,
Smothering it with stark
Sheets of black and grey.

Now the open graves of night
Free the dawn once more:
Morning moves in robes of light
From the night-tomb’s door....

Rivulets of ice hung greedily
to the barren, brown, basalt,
like ribbon-candy in a baby’s hand.
The sweet, wet, drool oozed from Mother Earth,
like a frozen curtain draping the mist scattered day,
hiding the promise of spring....

He dreams in electric themes
draping around the armchairs
he wheezes  down time

Across feral fields his eyes skims
the scenery
His shadow silhouetted by the evening sun
aware of the amolaly
recalling a spectral  youth...

LACE
Ornate
Rich  texture

A jeweled pattern
Draping fine elegance
Of Mother, exquisite bride

“prized heirloom from time's love story”

Winter Snow

Sleek ermine boas draping
the naked arms of nature
bare of their green velvet capes...
snow falling, settling.

fragrance of new spring
   draping flowers with bright tints--
drizzle comes in pours

~
children swish through games
   under April's wet landscape--
ring-ring-a-roses

After making love -
I lay my head upon your chest
To hear your heartbeat;
You are delicately built
But wonderfully alive.

Your skin is like satin
Draping across my fingers
As a blanket would but better;
Let me lay in your warmth
'Til the evening's end....

sari of morn floats

draping temples with orchids,

as Angkor Wat blows its mist

to flame coned incense;

and in the still of homage

pilgrims wander with their gods.

Wild, ecstatic, frivolous roses,
Haphazardly draping in staccato pink
The grassy embankment.
Bubbling, gleeful, like so many corsages
On fresh-faced girls at a
High school prom.
Cheerful, radiant, intricate charms,
Proffering subliminal messages
Of joy and hope rekindled....

It did not stay in bed for long 
the ultimate.
Clouds climbed down from immortality.

The sick motherhood.

We made love 
listening to winds
draping our ashes.

A father waited at the door.

I am the sun
I am the moon
interpenetrating in you.

In concept of two enemies.

Cold cloud in Emerald leaves
 of shaded greens
 gray cascading roughage flows
 flowing streams
 Hues of blue 
flaunting falling down 
draping the emeralds green grasses dom
Beauty on grasses grounds

The curtain drops and
Ethereal hand grips me
How it suffocates!
I wrestle with the monstrous
Draping beast to free myself.

Nights when a blanket
Of dense mist draping itself
Across the land, I 
Feel the damp and moldy air
Gripping me in its clutches.

Ashen black bricks,
all surround.
Nestled in the darkness,
Night's silent blackened crown.

She owes it all to the light,
the solitary glow.
Screaming out in protest,
draping mist in snow.

In absence of light,
of Sol, Sun, and sight,
nobody would know her,
nor call her "the night"....

Beads
Of sand
Twirl around
In slow motion,
Like white lace draping my feet in cool waves.

Powdered coastline echoed of our laughter
But how fleeting
Was June’s quest-
Time's play
Gone.
