Beauty escapes her
Lovely is her heart
Under quite a blur
Really never to part

Descending full moon
A perfect swollen disk
Of amber hue
Sneaks
Behind horizon peaks
And fleeing morning’s Sun

Summer heat rising
Sweat lubricates the brow a
Single drop of sweat
Escapes the swipe of an arm
Lands on concrete to sizzle

Past the edge of light
Not day, not night, just fading
Inside twilight space
The night ravages the day
The day escapes the night

dragging feeble feet
a silent walk to death's grasp
beaten under house
the last sigh escapes her lungs
whiskers shrivel as years pass

The Justice we find in rhyme
Escapes with passage of time.
But worry not, friend,
It will never end
As long as there exists crime!

Pumpkin seeds as teeth
Candle light escapes eye holes
Goose bumps in the dark...

It's a vicious room
Without any quick escapes,
Just honest thinking;
Stop spinning, you'll hit the floor,
Focus on finding the door

Don't tease me with words,
they fly away uncaged birds
and none fill the lines
except the ink flow unused
as it waits release to speak.

Nemesis bird eludes twitcher
That darn wanton bird
magically escapes my gaze!
'Tis a supernatural curse
that keeps it unreached.

Verse
Peace is a dove
Wings, you
Breathe this
Sweet air,
Escapes the
Hands of war, but
When you spread
Your wings,
You land on
Every shore

Crow
Steals my
Fountain pen
Outlaw escapes.
He won’t bring it back;
Still I give chase.
Lucky me,
He’s dropped
It.

Sultry sky
Undulating uplands
Majestic mountains
Magnificent moments
Exciting escapes.
Reality relieved.

Morning Jollity
darkness now escapes
light arrives
sweet like grapes
no more mourning
beautiful morning
jest
joy
jollity.

Reading a novel on a summer’s day
My conscious mind escapes so far away
Meditative to the essence of play
Lulled to dream land on the beach by the bay.

Astronomy explores
all of the universe
as distant galaxies
are revealed, inspiring
ardent adoration.
And awed by creation,
amen, escapes your lips.

Leveret scurries
Trained ears, panoramic sight
Saved - by a hare's breath.
Easter Bunny blinks
Burrows the deep undergrowth
Close shave this morning

The Stars.
They are like holes in the deep of darkness,
Through which our little hope escapes,
The hope that helps us survive...
In a world full of irony.

An innocent breath of air
Escapes from my throat
Taking life from my body
Effervescent wind,
Return my soul
To its hollow grave,
The confines of my corpse

I do not know?
Impaled by her sparks
Dangling feet can’t touch ground
Hunger escapes me
Try to form words from lost mind
Must learn how to walk again

Into the phantom darkness
My soul flew ahead
Paving the way for my flesh self
Who had no choice
But to reattach my shadow
And retrieve my
Darling darling soul

The giant’s eyes have closed.
Guards stand ready to deal the deathblow.
A hush—
The cheering crowd remembers
It’s not over until the last breath escapes.

Honorable one
Escapes the confines of life
Seeks out the real truth
Found in the hearts of the few
Singing tunes of the righteous
