Immortal Self

Sheltering in 
Womb of night
Engrossed in
Surreal silence
Imagination stretched
Beyond galaxies revealing
Immortal self

What To Note

If they praise you,
And by that they raised you.
Beware,look down at the floor.
For if you're engrossed you'll fall.

Spokes

engrossed in my book -
the tunes of playful robins
whir of wash-machine
        the sunless dawn, spokes
atop oaks, pines and myrtles

A Prison of Emotions

You may engage in your work
Be engrossed with your friends
Travel around the world
Play a lot of games
But it's hard to escape your mind
A prison, full of emotions.

What We Remember Most

After we lose someone we love
someones in whose life we were engrossed….
those times our memories drift to them
may we be blessed 
that it is their love we remember most

'deep In Thought'

I sauntered along
the seashore 
thinking.

He walked
from 
the other side
fully engrossed.

Rise Early For the Coast

To get the most from summer trip to coast
start early dosed up with coffee and toast,
avoiding almost, the hot sunburn roast,
an uttermost certainty on seacoast,
when lying reposed in slumber engrossed,
you sleep well post noon, with your tardy host.

Smart-Aleck Mountain Echo

I anticipated a campin' trip in the mountains a few days ago.
Ah, the splendor of the risin' sun while slurpin' a mug o' joe!

I greeted one morn with a hearty "HOWDY!", I was so engrossed!
Alas, my euphoria was shattered when the echo replied, "GIT LOST!"

Angst

A lighter moment
doffs his hat
inviting me
to a little chat
engrossed in angst
and emotions deep
I sigh a bit
and dab my cheek
he snuggles down
and draws me near
taking off
my cloak of fear
raising up
his finger-tips
he blows a smile
onto my lips.

Dream

Dream
A call
Familiar
My brother’s voice
I follow its trail
I see him in a room
Brightly lit with many books
I look around with deep wonder
He holds a book and beckons to me
We’re engrossed until we’re lost in time’s trail

Hollow

Hollow

 

l am hollow

engrossed in complete emptiness

engulfed in a vacant stare   

devoid of any feelings

deprived of many pain

l am hollow 

roaming an ethereal realm

clothed in a vacuum

stumped and headless

running an endless race

Flicking Off Maple Leaves

drizzling maple leaves full glory 
young intense reader does not mind
She is engrossed in the story
Which is one of a curious kind

The chipmunks are scolding.
Squirrels are on a walnut hunt find
There is a picnic lunch ready
Mice are sniffing, ready to dine.

Lovers of Ghosts

Poets are
creatures of
spirit, soft, invisible
things whose existence
extends in time.
Hard things, 
of the eyes,
of the earth, of matter
are for humorists and critics.
Poets are lovers,
engrossed in love
and memory of love,
in sad recollection,
and mourning.

Playful Moon

The joy of God gifted out loud.
and darting, darting not from fright.
A playful moon amidst cold clouds.
I saw a lovely moon last night.

Full and fast — I’m fully engrossed.
A beacon scanning the sky-sea.
This mannah, an orotund host,
created perfect just for me!

Kisses In the Night

I thought I had given myself to someone real someone true
That person was you
That now feels like a lie
Even though I was there 
Everything felt so real and right
All those kisses in the night
The excitement on your breath
As I helped you get undressed
You watched me close
Engrossed
You can't fake that

Raucous Rude Gallahs

Listen to poem:
all gathered in flocks
with raucous loud squawks
poised pink-grey Gallahs leap up
smashing the dawn hush
in a scramble rush
to broadcast their rude heads-up

they swoop and chatter
all sundry scatter
as nonchalantly engrossed
uncaring rabble
disturbs the babble
of self-righteous flock utmost

A Beauty, Ethereal

A world-being; a creature of flesh
When not otherwise engrossed!
Of which vision sends me, a soul
A quiver-flame, into
Ecstatic heights; Love's true!

Earthly beauty, to whom hath eyes.
But so transparently fair
Sparkles in all its refinements.
Fairy favours; each one!
Of this blessed mortal won!

The Singer

The Peacock Punks
bide their time
in New York's finery
Their aegis ,Betty Davis eyes
follows them in no uncertain terms
The day is engrossed with snowflakes
There is serenity in the air
as the chanteuse
forgets her words
I sensed the silence
as a solitary butterfly flew past
I longed for my reward
