As the heat subsided
A cool grayness crept in
Exhausted shadows slept
Limp leaves exhaled hope
Open windows inhaled it

Years devolve becoming fragmented time scattering moments across lifetimes in final exhaled breaths

My Day

Inhaled oxygen
Then exhaled stress and inhaled
the stress I exhaled.

Continuing life
Though in hesitations, Ah!
Positivity

High

Hiding everything there was to say
spent ashes in a pile of the day
intentions inhaled and exhaled away 
unspoken words of love going up in smoke.

Premium Member Gone In a Breath

Listen to poem:
Wispy smoke billows Steamy breath exhaled in swirls Like paper streamers Break free, gone in a moment Bon voyage to hopes and dreams
Form: Tanka


On Smoking a Pipe

A wispy finger tickles the air
But a breath exhaled
Chases it away
All that remains now
A sweet scent in the air
And now it's time
For another puff
On the pipe

an infant's cry --
                                                      first breath of life
                                                              exhaled

Yester-Me 2k12

Certainly I'll reminisce thereof the past,
Tho' shall not dwell therein it evermore.
For when I've inhaled and exhaled life's last,
Perhaps therein memory's realm I'll yet soar.

Premium Member Thought of the day

comprehend oh fellow souls, this truth stark ~
each breath exhaled is a leap in the dark

likewise in-breath graced is a gift from God ~
use it well dear, by giving love a nod

Pulse

life flows thru 
the flesh
exhaled thru
movement
recycled about
i want to know 
where it is
i am supposed 
to go-
leaking faucet
giving time a 
pulse, yet still
no reason.

Premium Member In Perspective

latent privacy
emerges into the limelight,
into the unfamiliar:
emptiness
exhaled
anguish abolished
destroyed:
insignificance
dismantled
despatched
to the extremities
of life

Premium Member Departed Maiden

Her soul still clung after she exhaled her last breath.
Her body still feels warm even in death.
Her voice still echoes in my head.
Her memory still lives on even though she is dead.

Premium Member Toot-Toot, Doggone It

There was this entrée; they called it bean soup
My pet tasted some, then let out a whoop --
   Doggone it, I exhaled
   As Fido wagged his tail --
While I removed all his stench from the stoop...

Freshest Of Dawn-Walks

Freshest of dawn-walks
This by a sea.
Whilst on its air none but thee
Its lung's trace leaves:
Life; as first exhaled.
Spumy mists through.
As one cast up on anew
World's shore; least grieves.

summer rain
upon hand
a fallen tear
  ###
winter snow
upon her face
rosy lips
 ####
autumn wind
upon her hair
braid unravels
  #####
spring breeze
upon her cheek
breath exhaled

Premium Member Peaceful Solitude

Soft summer breeze
sensual aromatic scents
inhaled and exhaled
through sensitive nostrils
the rhythm of the wind
warming soft cheeks
inviting the closing of eyelids
capturing a peaceful solitude.

Premium Member Consequences

Listen to poem:
meltwater
exhaled breath
warm remnant of kiss
inescapable consequences
ramifications off-ramp.

despite en garde, parry loop,
deflect dodge defy deny and cry;
relent now, 
imbibe and savor the afterglow.

Release

A sanctuary I entered
I exhaled
lifting me sweetly
to my cloud
I shout aloud
releasing my tension
thoughts pushed aside
as I reside in my abode
lulling sounds encircling me
pushing me to rest
a while...zzzzzzzzzzzzz

Summer Haiku

across the seascape
visions infuse with sunlight -
footprints wane in tide 

summer waves roil sand
eroding lines and dunes –
salt water stings wound 

Summer’s orbit ends
fog chills exhaled breath - 
a lone ship calls

Tree Swing, Revisited

Inhaled and exhaled
Freedom; its relief.
Higher, forth and back, higher; till
Felt have broke loose of
Earth. Not as this tree's
Flutter-sheddings brief;
As those feathered; of golden tone. *
Endless blown above.

* golden whistler

Premium Member Famous Folks

whatcha do when your mom
has on speed dial a bunch
of famous folks, find
your favorite and text ‘em
funny faces and love
from you to d’em

finding the cookie jar open
gasp, your full name exhaled,
ultimate laughter and forgiveness

Spring Clean

You wiped me out
The day
I was exhaled by that indigo storm.-
You stared at me with
Disapproval,
A frown sown to your forehead
As I lay on your fingertips.
Like dust in a dark old attic,
You disposed of me
To spring clean your life.

Dinosaur Dodoitsu #3
(Just a hypothesis… smiles.)

Dinosaurs that roamed the earth
Breathed in methane from the air.
CO2, which they exhaled,
Made earth plants flourish.

Premium Member Midnight's Braid - El

woven into midnights braid
sunsets goodnight kiss charade
bowing low for curtain call
draped in heavens endless shawl
warmth exhaled in cooling rise
silent wings of butterflies
woven into midnights braid
