Short Entreats Poems

Reduced to nuggets of the dacoit time
Under the burden of spent splendour
Shattered silhouette in a shabby corner
The inexorable skeleton of lovely life 
Entreats the Grim Reaper for mercy 
Daffodils look at you in trembling awe

Air is heavy with August's stifling heat,
Undulating water at the beach entreats.
Grab the kids, towels and sunscreen, let's hit the road,
Unleash your inner child, get ready for play mode.
Sandy shore and cool, refreshing waves are waiting.
Time to go now, no hesitating!...

the mouth spins webs
of lies and deceit
that catch you, ensnare you
in it's merciless grip

the face puts up
a convincing facade
it feigns a heartfelt smile
or hides the crushing sorrow

a person entreats you
becomes your friend
then strikes you down
and leaves you for dead

and how would I
detect the lie?
I must watch the eyes
the eyes never lie...

He bade him well and caressed the sea
Their lips deplored and pined prithee
As hearts had quelled and tidings lorn
As romance sailed towards love's newborn

Once a dream had therein seen
Entreats that time which charm's convene
My soul entreats and whispers why
And the waters take my once forby

For towards night's nigh
Where
wind's winter gales
For which dance's die
As passing passion sails...

I proclaim you as my love
I've tasted the zest of your essence 
Your ever essence treasured presence
Entreats me, so completes me
Once just a friend
Now presently my darling
Fathom the thoughts
Heartaches in arc
~
Together, we're allows 
Those of the tasted hearts
Liken sweets tart
Come unto mine loaf
Prevailed in awe
I proclaim you as mine love...

A tarry bright smile
Whispers of soothing sounds
Tantalizing spices of seasoned aroma
Fragrances which evokes the upliftment
Of an unconscious soul
Beauty in it's modest nature
Life unwraps as it flips into series of previewing pages
Flashbacks of captions that entreats the mind
Distorted emotions creates a wavering countenance
Tales of trials
In pills and in portions
It disintegrates every story into pieces of treasured gold
Laying up bounties for a mysterious quest...

The Nature is of miserly nature
Keeps stocks of the yellow hue
Selective in its use.
Like a sapient gift-giver presenting
A dulcet beauty of sunset
Yellowish entire sky.
The nature nurtured by the Father Sun
Entreats us to view pale sky
And shivery small sip.
Bathing the flowers in shining color
But days of glory too short
Green pushing out yellow.
