Short Enchantments Poems

Jungle of my enchantments
fairies, elves, mages, gnomes
childhood dream field...

A siren's call
Echo's of white fenced bliss
Painted with silence it's ghostly pickets
Allured enchantments
The muted past of her remiss...

Rain taps, rain taps tapping on my window
Sounding like a voice singing softly
A mermaid's song of
Enchantments and callings
Luring me to the window
Craving to hear more...

Siren, siren with shining hair
Beneath the moonlights subtle glare
I see thee so pretty and o so bright
Mind clouded from false beautys light
As I swim towards teeth and claws
Too late I see I was enthralled
By demon cant* and demons verse
It spelled my end, and was my curse

* cant is short for incantation...

Beneath the burning skies I watched the sun,
Into the horizon it gently fell,
While clouds of dreams, their magic begun,
Enchantments woven in a dusky spell,
As sunset’s reds then turned to night’s own dun,
In paler light the moon sees all is well,
And destiny lingered to find her way,
As I watched the sun slowly set today.

Lo' and behold,
There it sits
Red Fortitude,
Under an ocean of blue,

Amidst pale yellow plaster,
Towering above,
And a foliage of green
That crowds for a view.

The sun whispers phrases
Enchantments that only shadows construe
And yet unphased by its neighbours
Lost in thoughts of its own
There it sits
Red Fortitude
Under an ocean of blue....

"softly"

above blue skies beauty floats
endless grace unveils softly to all
inviting souls to be part of heaven
one touch of warmth spirits alter
ultimately changing worlds and walls

useful sun and moon whisper to lovers
only to speak back with thankfulness
igniting passions of young and old
enchantments dance under such spells
always holding softly between lights

the frozen grass
&frosted breath
    seemed to freeze
    a prelude soft
all rich array
  that wintry day:
visions of delight
all in vain
    otherwhere
    heart of fire
    all unseen
    far beyond
    from this place
with
     enchantments
                cold
in
   moments
            space:
eyes aghast
        unaware
        visions wide
        grew faint
with
     mortal taint

inspired by the poetry of Keats...

Beguiling Spirits

I know of their enchantments
The longings they inspire
Of promised inhibitions
And kindling desire.

Constrained by walls which glimmer 
Opaque or dim or clear
Sweet barely muted whispers
Succumb the naked ear.

A hand upon the vessel
The stopper freed at last
A casual undulation
Poured neat into the glass.

Embracing sips then swallows
Well finished is the fight
Enveloped by the liquor 
Of amber, red, or white....

Tree-finger enchantments
   Shimmer pedantic staccato;
Violinist plucked
   Long-tails, blue in snow,
      Bewitched no longer, frolic.
   Embrace Poseidon.
       Whisper labyrinths cool to the wake.
East, I see an oblong ship pirouette
    Charging from Olympus…on fire,
        Shadowy Everests migrate west;
    Crisped saltines crumbled by guilt
       Whose silent peaks rejoice:
How beautiful the clouds swim in sunrise sky.

Nothing
in all creation
can equal
true loves value
a priceless gift

Unpretentiously given
delicately expressed
no accommodation
for superiority
or spite

Tranquilly awaiting
to build you up
supporting
your independence
devotion
is not possessive

A sanctuary
in moments of sorrow
embracing
empathies
healing strength

Sensual desires
breathtaking enchantments
arousing playfully
devilish romance

Most importantly
true love
is
unconditional...
