way out there
deep in the night
well before dawn
dew forms on you
painting you into the picture

Again, you gave writing a go;
In shame you now hang your head low.
You once had a sonnet
Or two in your bonnet;
Now limericks are all that you know.

If we are honest
then we'll admit
the most hideous things.

I don't know how many
syllables went into this
but if you are counting

feel free to tell me.

Trying to write a Pantoum is fine
 But what if you miss a line
 Then it becomes a pain
 When you have the wrong refrain
 Then Rhyme is the form you assign!

When I first saw you
sparks flowing from heart- to heart
you mesmerized me my dear

I knew I had met my fate
you were my forever love

When Light Forms Colors Unite

Further than amazed silence applauds
         when lights, shapes and colors unite
          and enchanting time in fair sight
        attesting  purity never action flawed

Response To PS' Example Forms

she who opens up a can of worms
shaking the tree of PS' example forms
a rock now overturns
ones a properly learn
PS reign the storm, get onto the norm

All Forms Of Combat

He gives back-turned witness
To those who've perceived
In clear forms of beastliness
A splendid display.

History's onlooker.
Mankind's one shame-faced!
Stands back, in time, from cheerer
Glorifies Death's play.

Premium Member Forms of Time

Time is structured in forms
The future
The present
And the past
The past intrusions into the present
The present reserved for the future 
And the future unfolding eroding the past and the present 
Time has structured forms

World of Forms

World Of Forms

Sun drops in on us
Draws tears from the well of Earth
Children drink up light, water
Oceans have more salt
Both form the world that forms us
Tears dry, sun rises higher

Love Comes In Many Forms

Love comes in many
shapes and sizes
In many forms
and devices.

But love that is
certain and never a fad
Is the love that I 
got forever from dad.

You taught me to love and
to fight for my right
You took me in and
kissed me goodnight.

Premium Member My 3 Forms of Poetry

Music is poetry for our ears.
For our eyes the written text of poetry is what all poets hold dear,
but when the poetry of music is combined with the read poetic text,
the poetry form of a song has been born.

Forms, Who, You

What is a form
who needs a form
my form

My
form is my life
my
life
is my form

My reality is my reality
your reality is your reality
why segregate


Do you understand
do you really understand 
to deep?  

Go beyond
go within
be the limitless

~O the dread of a bobcat’s tusks    
  In search of rabbit in the brush
  Hunger in cat’s form is life’s thrust
  Swift, the bobcat’s pursue
  Still in life the rabbit must trust
  As life’s forms bid adieu

Premium Member A Poem Forms In My Heart

A poem forms in my heart
   A notion born, a place to start

It murmurs now inside my brain
   Sound waves spread into my veins

It presses hard against my lips
   Radiates down to my fingertips

Gushing forth from trusty pen
   Words flowing on adrenaline...

Dream forms spiral, though we are still, tranquil in witness mode, so in time ego sheds its will and sings to God an ode. Sans our thoughts, who are we, save the Self, which we see, luminous are carefree? Thoughts go viral ~ Dream forms spiral
