Short Encase Poems

Autumn leaves encase
A ground once caressed by heat
Tread carefully here
Beneath your feet animals
Are hiding from winter’s breath...

Flailing madly
Against the tide,
I am impaled
By the futility of life.

Slowly losing myself
In the bitter cold,
The devil's clenching fingers
Encase my soul....

kiss of venus fly trap 
suck the marrow from my bones,
encase my heart, secrete,
dissolve the myth of wings... 
death be true to death

*love,death or truth may be the sanctuary
  depending on the situation....

Air fragrant your presence
Smile radiant your essence
My poems try to ensnare
Encase whatever you are.

Storm fierce you’re blown
Time ruthless you’re torn
The poems melt in my eyes
Drown what of you remains....

Wake me up.
Cold embrace,
Wake me up.
Soft hands encase,
Wake me up.
A dream so sweet,
Wake me up.
Nocturnal treat,
Wake me up.
It's all a lie,
Wake me up.
Alone I cry,
Wake me up.
End this freight,
Wake me up.
Turn on the light....

Space and time encase
Manifestation
Both seen and unseen
The void potential
Spanda kinetic

All that that blocks
Energy flow
Impediment 
To our ascent 

Sticky thought
Attachments
We forgo

The way
Simple

Still

The shadows entice
All who are present
Feel the vibrations
That encase our lungs
Black spills throughout here

Tainted by night
We drift among
Bleak entities
Pausing for air

Threats of bile
Stir inside
Lifeless souls

We are 
No more

Gone....

I come before you broken
 I stand before you hoping
 that you acknowledge me
 that's you embrace me
 let your encase your heart beats ever so sweetly
O GOD YOU ACKNOWLEDGE ME--

Snow painted on majestic peaks
Staring down on an ice blue lake
Watching the crystal waters seek
The perfect spot where it will make
A looking glass that will encase
The reflection of the mountains face

I love the lake

and I love the sky,

I engage in simulation of swimming through the shy,

I enrage my eye's with wisdom and fire,

I encase the revealer
because it's everywhere all the time,

I jack out my figure with a hand of time-

sleeping soundly 'till morning

and drinking the wine......

ABSOLUTE SOLITUDE 

The bird of the blue flies in the rhythm of freedom with whisper
of wind on the wings to make music of ecstasy for the soul
when the still petals of mind encase absolute solitude.

This pulsating inside my chest,
The subtle touch of your aged hands
I cannot help but beam,
Merely thinking of your devious smile,
And the way your bulky arms encase me
The clash of our hearts together,
Sends me to wander free in my utopia
The one where only you and I are present
All we can do is hold on and love....

A quiet, tranquil space
Isolated from the human race
Shuttered from life's obsessive chase
Disappearing without a trace
No itinerary; no suitcase
Fleeting time to erase
Solitude, serenity to encase
A staggered, slow pace
Only my thoughts to embrace
All expectations, challenges efface
Billowy dreams my saving grace...

the difference with mist		


this…. landscape of blurry fog
mist that rise from breathless trees
kiss with vapors from the mourning rain
wish upon a lonely breeze

place with sorrow your heavy dew
encase thy eternal lips
traced by charcoal and vellum
erased with lightness that is missed

Electric pulse between 
You, you and me
Like the nectar and honey
Waters to the leaves
Encase between mine
Together slivering
Announcing arrival
Stiffening between time
Lightning speaks, only at speeds
Fastened into my, my beginning
Showering rains, melting sands
Rising in me, accompanied by you
You and I, gone by light...

Holy Spirit
O Holy Spirit
ever resided inside me
may the breath of God

sweet so sweetness sweet
ever resided inside me
and may God’s spirit

flow within reach out
and just encase and embrace 
 all eternity

KISSABLE THIRST QUENCH COMPLETE

i kissed you once on
petals of radiant love
like a fruit pick up

quenches thirst complete

So is the heart beating; 
His life was yet so young ;
in his hands, and his arms were Mighty strong. 
I accepted his breath upon my neck ;
how loud his hands and arms surrounded me first,
 and as we embraced it, an aura that I encase; 
the smell of his essence;
 flared he was earnest. He is honest, and he cares;...

I got one unique smile;
Noticeable even from a mile.
Behold me with your eyes
sure, blood bathes my face

Don't mistake my closeness
nor ever encase me in sweetness.
I am no enchantress
as this my widest grin...

Smiling in joys and pains
as though nothing in vain.
Love, hope and faith I retain.
Indeed, keeping me sane.

I'll chase for my love,
I'll race for my life.

I'll face all my uncertainty,
I'll trace all my opportunity.

I'll embrace this urge,
I'll lace this courage.

I'll brace all obstacles,
I'll erase all hindrance.

I'll embrace this desire,
I'll encase this romance.

I'll face all my fears,
I'll trace all my dreams.

I'll chase for my future,
I'll race for my wish....

IS THIS EDEN---

Our flower in the garden
Won't you come in out
 of the storm
No withered leaves
Bring forth blossoms
Rise beyond the storm
Allow the sun to warm you
stem of flower fold
Rainbow colors shining bright
Encase your beauty surround us
Pleasant sight grows on
Flowery hedges in the garden
Where am I is this Eden
Amen

In the bevy of beauty 
She strode with carriage and courage
Gazers overwhelmed
Critics clamoured
Now,
Mourners mourning
As they gather round her past
This noon she stood there vertical
Tonight she lay horizontal
Her pride and beauty encase 
In the meaninglessness of life
Head dropping
Tears tiring
Hope hopping
'Dirt to dirt 'hallowed the priest
'Emptiness of human in the human cosmos ' echoed the mourners....

I Love you deep then runaway
For the slave child may never lay beside the master
Encase our cadavers within one grave!
So that we may live happily ever after 
                                       
   
Thier words pierce sharper than blades.
Branding the letters out on her heart: "NEVER LOVE A SLAVE!" 
 
For the slave child may never love a master
Encase our cadavers in one grave!
That we may live happily ever after...

Sun nestled on the horizon
Casting its rays upward
Giving the belly of the  Clouds
The glorious light hot pink color

Damp, cool giving sun
Competition for the day
Clouds seem to encase
The sun closing in on it

Saying no, today we 
Rule, don't give your light
We will water the earth
So the earth can be restored

Those heavenly rain showers
Bring their blessings
Giving all living on the earth
Hope of renewal and rebirth...

Unknown Unsayable


As I sleep with shuttered eyes, closed;
Bed time my teeth enclosed in a jar;
I can't speak, asleep can't speak no teeth;
Got something to say, Can't speak, dangers around me;
Eye closed encase in darkness, lips and mouth lock;
Got something to say,So frighten still can't talk, can't open mouth;
Unknown terrible thrill, can't see or speak, UNSAYABLE
