On black velvet sky
Srinkles of white gems sparkle
Embellished with shine...

Parchment of the grove,
Soft wind caresses the trees:
Frail embellishment....

she wears on her skin
the perfect girl of his dream
her highlighted crown
conflates an embellishment
emitting fashion design

lyrical embellishment 
      of a crescending scratch
packs
     its things, ready to run
builds its place
     among the nothings
               of an empty woods...

To embrace the frigid frost in nakedness so acute
My embellishment lays scattered at my feet in putrid decay
Not till spring i awaken and encompass you again

No gnus is good gnus... heard that before?
A bit of a twist but youse guys know the score
A wee departure
Language is a starter
Embellishment expands our lust to explore...

The dress
Couture Dior
Embellishment, gemstones
Rich hues, deep sexy cabernet
my fairy tale, a quest for romance, dance
a frock fantasy has gone wild
I’ve fallen madly for
“Joie de vivre”
the dress

They are running for positions in government. 
What they say is full of embellishment. 
When they are receptive, 
their tactics are deceptive. 
Thank God their terms are not permanent.

After a long time today
Blue throated bird I saw
Cuddling psychedelic sunlight
Dating for the first time this year
Embellishing the boughs with amber moments

Your in my gears
Cover me in tears
From head to toes stained in your blood
Just act like it's not there
An embellishment amongst a prayer
Feeling of left alone covered in disppear
Dying to cry or crying to die
What your doing to me is killing me inside...

I’m Geared Fast
3/15/2016

Some folks have a penchant for detail,
And use three thousand words in relating to me a story
That I know the ending to after the first one hundred;
That leaves me biting my tongue while thinking, 
Just the facts, skip the embellishment before I
Scream!!!!!

A window 
is an opportunity to see the world
without having to go outside and participate
a beautiful embellishment to 
your house and a practical 
necessity for your car.
a window can both 
save your life and 
keep you safe from others.

This light were much the duller
Embellishment by far
When set against, antipathetic
Of what seemingly mar;
For those shadings, tree-blown
In the woody storm-thrown.

In one, who so pretending
To be perfect always
A smirk, a sour-faced contrast
Could enliven my days!
Refreshing, if fearsome walked!
And if finally balked!...

A rhythm to Bali beach

Amidst the memory splendor
Spashy beauty of your image
Keep us sane
We sing....

Cherishing your embellishment
Gulping in the glory 
You left
We sing...

Covered in precious love that drips 
Continuous passion
I kiss
We sing

A Long awaited candlelight 
Lights our darkness
We love 
We sing

Mystically murky memories

Antagonize anyone and anything

Despite delving deep down

Each embellishment encompasses eternal envy

You yearn, yet…

Only one option opens

Understand, undertakings undo unambiguously

Live, laugh, love, let lie

Opt out of obligation

Offer open objections ostensibly

Knowledge kindles kindness...

Embellishment content
is sired not ~ nor is full extent
flocked sternly, the construed resent
is oft the wandering mind's consent!

To view the atrophy's invent
is vague and apprehension's sent
my heart awakening, so alert
looks forward, while all knees are bent ~

with prayers of useless saming's vent
looks forward . . . loving's implement!...

Sip this description
Flipping indigenous misfits,
Imprints or footprints in sound

The valley out of bounds
Where real world blues
Are castigated in spades
Dark hazes rearrange the page
Pressing 
Prime poetry always
Lifted in a miraculous tumble

While battling limbs plunder
Im just herculean on this mystery fit
Having no eye for embellishment 
making answers split 
And financing the change...

Mornings requisite, not intent
nor fool's embellishment
file their extent!

The meaning's purpose is my rent
my Godsend ~ my content,
the herald of my calling, from God sent!

Nor tithing's hold, the need's incur,
my break for time ~ lies like a slur
until the vestige, now impure ~

My hands recycle ~  merit stir . . .
Invent, Invent ~ the broadcast is the cure,
I am the willing donor ~ driving spur!...

Sometimes to make more interesting,
A story being told,
Some folks will try to enhance it,
To make it sound more bold.

Sometimes when we're relating,
An experience one's had,
Certain things are added,
To enhance the good or bad.

Often when retelling,
Some newsy bit of info,
A supposition can slip in.
The story changes, bingo.

Whether to make it exciting,
To help or hinder tried,
It isn't simple embellishment.
The truth is that you lied....

Listen to poem:

The oomph and zing of extra spin
adds razzmatazz to shot akin
to the standing ovation din
a hole in one gets for a win.

The cream screams to the top.

The razzle and dazzle of dance 
shake, rattle and roll of romance 
is enhanced by the oddball prance
of a jitterbug jive freelance.

Bebop is king of pop.

Jazz embodies the extra dash
of syncopated mish and mash
adding gems of splish, splosh and splash
improvisation in a flash.

Flip-flop until you stop....
