Once summer green
then Autumn gold
bedecked this ancient tree-
Today silhouette laid bare
misletoed in winter frieze.
Sculptor Thorneycroft Wiliam Hamo
made many a statue 'to go '
He also carved building frieze
so versatile was always at ease
Off
chance
in a
web of paint-
dripping with talent.
Ekphrasis after Frieze by Pollock
Listen to me read my poetry on youtube under name of ichthyschiro
A wish on this cold Winter's frieze
A diamond ring Santa, oh please
It was ever so shocking
What she found in her stocking
A ladder right up to her knees!
Rising well before dawns first light,
Driving through tunnels of trees.
Bedecked with frost shining bright
I miss the sight of this winter frieze.

Dr. Walter Frieze
Here, arrogant Dr. Walter Frieze
Who in idle boast, cured every disease;
From illness, could never go blue
Lies cold, felled by common flu!

Once,summer green
Then,autumn gold
Bedecked the ancient tree-
Now,in silhouette,laid bare
Mistletoed in winter frieze;
Flurries of snow,fine & dry
On its branches lie
White stars,scurry and shift
In piles of patterned drifts.
Once,summer green
Then,autumn gold
Bedecked the ancient tree-
Now,in silhouette,laid bare
Mistletoed in winter frieze;
Flurries of snow,fine & dry
On its branches lie
White stars,scurry and shift
In piles of patterned drifts.
The rafters creak
The Fire alarm is delirious
Its 4 AM
all is in a frieze
Intrigued by the night
I unpetal
The Night people dine in-between
Top hats appear
Bell drawn dazzles
You stole my castle
I need to graduate from this dawn
Solo artist Snow works throughout night,
silently painting rooftops white,
crayons lawns, pencils in trees
a dazzling shade of white
over his great frieze;
his masterpiece
wins acclaim,
then melts -
shame!

SHADES OF WINTER
Once,summer green
Then,autumn gold
Bedecked the ancient tree-
Now,in silhouette,laid bare
Mistletoed in winter frieze;
Flurries of snow,fine & dry
On its branches lie
White stars,scurry and shift
In piles of patterned drifts.
Of men and ships that plow the seas
And leave a vanished furrow
In unmarked depths of ocean field
Where a million sees lie fallow.
Men who cast with roughened hands
Hopes upon the silken crests
And visions to the salty breeze
Ships that touch the foreign shore
And paint the harbor frieze.

Snowflakes soft as a Kentucky breeze
Floating down gently in the frigid air
Settling on the barren limbs of trees,
White brush strokes on a winter frieze
A whisp of snow, an old winter tease
Reminding us of our ski gear to prepare
Snowflakes soft as a Kentucky breeze
Floating down gently in the frigid air.

Nature of visions ,voices of expression
from the frieze of life a purifying fire
of confession.In an ode of contentment
a blended passage,an intense yearning
where last things,last.
Hear me recite from my 4000+ PS anthology on youtube under my pen nameichtbyschiro..

Raindrops, God's tears for His creation,
When frozen, His jewels for decoration.
The hoare frost bedecks the trees,
A wonderland set in a frieze.
Driving out on wintry nights,
Sparkling jewels caught in headlights.
A spiders web is on display,
White with frost that passed that way.
A watery sunrise fails to melt away,
The winter wonderland that is today.

SCULPTURAL
fusion
frieze
fine curved
perceptions
economy of line

humdrum gestures
unrecognized
pretentious
hysteria
& shocks
foibles
so explosive
THIS IS AN OPEN(organic) FORM VERSE without grammatical symbols the ' open' relies upon 'the one breath limitation' & so inherently requires the 'reader' (reciter) to input and respond thus making the form a two way interplay and often a unique interpretation by the enigma so derived
SPONTANEITY
Like nature working
inside from out,painted feelings
impressions..from within
drip by drip An abstract
creation pure form in colour
A spontaneous, frieze to and
fro,high then low ,back and forth
so off chance, large scale ;
a web of paint,layer on layer,
Drop by drop-one by one
out of the unconscious mind
to arrive as a statement ,alive
in the here and now;
Colour on canvas remade
Listen to me read this poem aloud on youtube under name of ichthyschiro
Dappled light streams,
filtered through
Shaded green,
mossy rock gleams
Such light pooled below..
Strange flutterings,
I heard so,
in summer trees
Deepest,richest green,
filled my heart
Summer trees
Where have you been?
Lost on a soft breeze
Tall and strong
The giants of the earth
They cannot walk
Here they belong
Summer trees,
caressed the ground
Deepest, richest green
Nature's colour frieze
In it, I breathed
in it, I drowned
BIRDS
B reathless each day the winged ones burst and unite into the twilight frieze--
I s there a more delicate touch to the sight than the songbirds as they take to the sky?
R eveling while entwined with the tailwinds-- delighting the indigo breeze,
D ashing on the last rays of sun to nip the laziest mosquito on the fly --
S ong of the satisfied sung—they fade into the welcoming night bosom of the trees.
