even dear ones
her sneer evoked.

Lingering in air
Sweet aroma that evoked
Memories hidden
From the past hugs and kisses
Smelling as petrichor scent

Provoked and Croaked

Elegant words from mouth of Trump evoked;
Even those complacent became provoked;
No denying;
He was spying,
And what we wish is that he had crooked.

beautifully evoked ~ 
           inspired art imagined 
           soft rain falls
      
           on oak scented leaves ~
           spirits engage me to write
           Haiku form driven...

The beauty spilling from your pen
and all your passions placed therein,
evoked emotions deep within,
and if our souls ne’er meet again, 
I’m blessed to say, I knew you when.

Sincerely,

Some of the great paintings he created
evoked the dire fate of many;
Christ's fate was tragic instead:
his sacred entombment was
done with pious hands 
laying down his 
cold body
pierced by
nails....

She’s fierce with red eyes
Evoked by power of fire
Terror, corruption
Quite a sizzling hot feeling
Avoidance of normalcy

Never misstepped
    never misspoke
  Her bearing impeccable
    equilibrium evoked

  Adored by her subjects
    bewigged barrister... blimy bloke
  Tears flood the world's heart
    its queen's not awoke...

Amplified beauty characterizes deeply evoked feelings gotten here,
in June's klieg-light,
lighting many nation of plants,
quietly rendering senses towards utopia,
vanquished with xanthophyll.
Yellow zoophytes!!...

I saw the huge beast from the dock.
The scene evoked bowel loosening shock.
Run and hide, Nessie!
It's about to get messy.
Rosie O'Donnell* is swimming in the Loch.

Attended a performance last night that blew me away
A concert in tribute of Gord Lightfoot, idol of my younger days
What glorious memories
Evoked teary-eyed reveries
A journey back in music, a gentler time it portrayed...

flick of
         a brush
in time&
space
 
to bring
   a symphony
           of tones
the art
    of allegory
with
minimum of paint
maximum
            of reality
           with
tradition traduced

timeless truths
&
     sighs
evoked

Listen to poem:

I've seen that face, I see in crowd
I know that new place, on arrival
I've felt all this familiarity
I know, I know this being
has all been there before.
Past lives, past sense, 
past tense, become alive
in present tense,
evoked by the yearning
for context, meaning
in the empty void....

Experiences re-lived
culled from images I've seen,
books recalled,places I've seen;
Re-fashioned,enhanced and changed
emphasised and re-arranged,
evoked,re-styled in shaded tones,
uniquely embossed my own;
Written out for you to see
this poem trapped,within me..
Now,you dear reader..set free....

I could pioneer my real self to your credit,
Astonished by facts concealed in my zest .

Was proud of my Victorian traits ,
But you evinced me wrong.

Evoked thoughts of modernisation into me,
Tuned me to a vivacious being.

Such revealing discovery of myself,
Exploring Rarest traits from treasure chest!!...

My heart was heard
Sensed every note
These birds evoked
Animals came to play
Added smiles to our day
Squirrels do feed
Where I have kneed
Calming air
Brushed our hair
White butterflies pass us by
I almost cried
Black-and-white warbler
Came out and pondered
Blessings were made
This melody we played...

Time creeps along, slowly,
Slowly never ending,
Ending in remorse,
Remorse evoked,
Evoked sciamachy.

Shadows all about,
About me poking prodding,
Prodding at mine sawol,
Sawol of eternity.
Eternity of sweet memories,
Memories lost destiny unfolds,
Unfolds then enfolds,
Enfolds over mortal life.
Cruel life sleeps....

# _expression
Not an ounce of simple
But a dash of complex
my paintbrush or pencil  
_is how I express

Much value is lost
In spoken word
Too high, a cost 
To be misheard 

Insert a tune 
The words may follow
Authenticity blooms
No longer, hollow 

Emotions evoked
Kindred spirits
If only, you spoke
Who would hear it...
