Around fidelity's spoken

The swing dwindles and fluctuates forever caught in a spiraling breeze

Buddha cast in bronze

--- heaped high w/ new-fallen snow ---

smiles unfazed, dwindles

cross-legged in the garden

under the sky's vast length, breadth....

Who can capture you
With a glass jar held face down
While your wings flutter wildly
And your hope dwindles
I watched somwhere afar off
Please let my butterfly fly...

Sweet Dear Moment
Sitting At It's Peak
Constant Fading Glory
In What You Never Seek
The Light That Dwindles
Stricken By Intent
The Slow Sinking Sun
Just Time So Well Spent...

Hope
Dwindles
Changing course
Of time and space
With glacial winds suffocating my whole
And absence of color within the snow
With the harshness
Of yearning
Dwindles
Hope....

Sweet fragrant delight,
Embracing fields refresh souls,
Morning renews earth.

Buds blossom, awake
Revitalize a longing,
Night dwindles away.

ebon night dwindles

     cloaking mournfulness of heart—

a street lamp flickers

Deep down it's dark, silent.
No one here no one there 
its just me and me.

I see the bright light 
To get to it I squabble
With ardour I embrace 

The light dwindles away 
Dusky and me it is again 
But I'll live for light...

'Neath nocturnal bloom
the essence of self
dwindles in a pillowed horizon
twilight dies a whisper -
your voice in my ear…

the pale goddess rises
mothering angel’s tears
tending till dawn 
a moon garden vigil
bearing witness to your visit...

'Tempus fugit' we cannot deny
for suppleness dwindles and mirrors can't lie.
As wrinkles start spreading and children depart
the truth of this saying hits home like a dart.

Laboring in obscurity
my dog forgets my name
The hours pass, the moments fade
with every day the same

My faith a light that dwindles
belief the final straw
In darkness splayed, my hope betrays
—no luck beyond the draw

Les More owned big fancy mansions galore
Then bought half of Wyoming, but kept craving more
Now his real estate dwindles to six feet by four
It's all he now needs; no less, no more

Listen to poem:

Shadows Densely Cast
David J Walker

How soon the night begins to call
Fall is falling fast

Shadows thinly passing all 
Daylight dwindles past 

A crusted moon 
a ragged ball

auric emblems last 
Hold your breath 

against a death
shadows densely cast...

Mounting mass of land 
mount of rocks, mountain laurels
let's get up on top.

A copious flow seems
flowing through the years, beware
rivulet it ends.

Rivers and Mountains
retain before it dwindles
let young ones rejoice.

Swaying in the breeze 
Amidst the dancing leaves
A subtle rise and fall
As Mother Nature breathes

Crisp, refreshing air
Twirls and spins her hair
She giggles, up then down 
Of time, she’s unaware 

A pleasant world, she knows
Joy dwindles as she grows
This moment, all is fair
Her innocence aglow...

Heed love’s voice, conscience whispering
Else flounder in darkness
Pure of heart feel bliss throbs spearing
Aligned with That oneness

Ego stalks us in stealth
Yielding dwindles soul’s health
Love divine, our sole wealth

There’s no choice
Heed love’s voice

Purity dwindles inside of me,

the longer I stay alive.

The only thing promised in life is experience

and for sure that one day we'll die

The truth isn't hiding, it's us who is hard to find,

searching everywhere but inside.

Some hunt for a meaning and fight over who is right.

I've just learned to enjoy the ride....

salient seal surges
fondling felon vices
tumbling twain smirks
leering lusty lurch
per punctured zeal
moaning mists breed

wielded will whooshes
dripping damped drizzles
seeped'n saucy stinks

haughty heels hanker
oozing taunted trigger
airy atmosphere flickers

tumbling tiers throttle
dangling dark dwindles.

Head scrambled, bejangled, and no longer together. 

Everlasting you said, but nothing lasts forever.

Letting me think that, was a trick but not clever.

Percentages say you’re the reason of my endeavor.



Laugh as you will its all good.

Our time dwindles at the rate it should.

Still you’d stop the time if you could.

To bad this is real life, or you would....

Feel the privatization in its might
A bullet in the African soul-
The sectors sold
The branches squared.

Our pride dwindles
When our Africa is slowly auctioned
To forces of stealth
Ruiners of our democracy.

Our masters slowly gather the spilled milk
Stride by stride
Grinning at the auction table
Their eyes glued on the politician’s billboard:
AFRICA FOR SALE....
