Gloved Hand

It's winter time and
My hands are cold covering
them up with warm gloves

Premium Member Rock Pools

Down by the rock pools
My hand gloved in your wrinkles
New discoveries
Starfish, crabs and mermaids purse,
Squirting sea anenomes.

Fountain of Blood

Fountain of blood
It’s the new accessory
To a uniform I must return
Burned into my gloved hand
My number was up
And that’s why I don’t write poems with 13 lines

Premium Member Life Today

Life today a silent game of Russian Roullette
Masked, gloved, unarmed a trip to a public 
Place a sneeze, a cough, a bit of smegma
And Covid19 silently end all to Life.

The Fence Builder

brimmed eyes 
squinting against the noon brightness.
gloved hands 
wiping the salty drops away.
denim moving
with the lankiness beneath.
strong lines
rising as the maul swings


Premium Member A Whisper of Wind

What more than a whisper of wind
   can we demand on a starry night
With strains of violins in the background
   and a velvet-gloved waiter

Kestrel holds on the gloved hand, releases flies away, faces wind dives, catches his small prey

Premium Member Back Porch

Mid 60's brother's band
I am a gloved "scab" on bongos and
helter skelter on county fair drums
They play their backyard hearts out
my summer of learning all instruments
Music, playing parties of various venues 
two lifelong brotherly loves.
Thanks Denny.

The Crow

He spreads his lordly cape to slow his descent, gloved talons softly gripping metal throne, his obsidian pallium opulent and ominous. Empowered by wonder and awe, I swallow fear, holding the chthonic messenger’s gaze

Curiosity binds us
The vigilant Seraphim turns

Crumbled Leaves of Fall

I CRUMBLED YOUR LEAVES
WITH GLOVED HANDS
AND MIXED THE RESIDUE WITH SAND
I PLANTED MY COLLARDS AND KALE
MY TURNIPS AND HORSRADISHES
SOME WERE IN THE PALE
I CRUMBLED YOUR PRETTY LEAVES
SO THAT THEY MIGHT NURISH MY PLANTS
COMPSOE IN THESE SANDS
FOOD FOR MY PLANTS!

Will You Write For Me?

"Will you write for me?" she asked.
"Will you be there when
the silver-gloved hand of night
closes the sky?"
The chatter of magpies
never ceases as their wings
brush against the door.
Run, run to the closet of your heart,
and put on your treasure-jewels.
It's never too late to dress up.

Premium Member Surreal Halloween

Heads bowed, shoulders stooped
  Gloved hands, facemasks in place
The sorry souls who venture out
  Seem not part of the human race

Their features covered
  Their spirits smothered
Lurid figures stalk grocery aisles
  An eerie pall hovers over the scene
Foreboding, haunted, surreal Halloween

Premium Member Our New Normal

Extract crimson hope, ruthless needles
Distract my dark thoughts, bleeding ink
Contact sanitized gloved sensations
Contract, as cancerous demons shrink

Dew pretty mornings carry fever
Blue icepacks chase lush, littered heat
Too many germs lurk everywhere - our
New normal household, bittersweet

Frozen Hearts

two walk hand in hand
down the frozen streets. 
couples in their home warmed by fires,
but the two bundled up so close, yet so far, selfishly holding back their warmth.
no room for the energy to pass through gloved hands.
and so they walk, not feeling how their souls ripped apart and the last of their love fading.

Premium Member A Garden Is a Work of Art

a garden is a work of art
    conceived with gloved, wrinkled hands
  a home for fragrant specimens
    for mists, for rain, for brilliant sun  

  yet when the weather turns, so do blooms
    from rich perfumes to withered tombs
  so clasp tight my hand, retreat indoors
    to dream of sun-splashed greener shores

Gloved Gladiator

At the sound of the bell,
the boxing arena trembles;
the crowd's maniacal roar
explodes as a thunderclap.

Blood-crazed predators,
these gloved gladiators;
fiercely glaring, rushing,
breathing murderous rage.

Altar of wealth, vanity,
hurried sign of the cross,
hastily mumbling to God
of mercy...a bloodied prayer!

Before day breaks

The sky dones the gown of darkness, Holding the eternal tears of stars in its bosom, Glimmering in the lashes on the verge of a fall before sunrise. The clouds reach out towards the moon with gloved fingers, Stroking the dying babe fading into the dawn. The sky mourns the fading light at the funeral of night.

Begotten

Conceiving virtue's mending,
spells the view
in careful words unending,
seeing you!

The bridgework, as a blending
links we two
the road, so apprehending
is askew!

My eyes once gloved in blindness,
find renew
and send these fingers rampart,
to remove -

Hypocrisies contending,
yea uncouth -
The sight of you begotten
....seems all truth!

"winter Strays"

Ride brush, stray search. Sit high, leather perch. Lasso thrown, dally wrapped. Wind howls, brim flapped. Chaps warm, gloved hand. Twenty years, ride brand. Spurs jingle, double rowel. Heading home, round corral. By Jim "Ish" Fellers Copyright ©: August 06, 2003 Wednesday @ 1:40 a.m.

trash day

the crawling
trash-eating growlers
empty the jettison
of 7 days

strong limbs and gloved hands
heave and haul
tip-over the unwanted tangle
of unmindful chaos

the machine chews loudly

time to go
drag the empty black bins
back into their secluded caves

time to make eggs and bacon
to drop once more
rinds and shells
into plastic landfills

Premium Member Bonfire Night

Sky lightening up
flares and flashes
arching high above

Pretty sparklers in
kids gloved hands
waving circling

Loud bangs from rockets
as they explode showering
multi bands of colour

Catherine wheels
spinning round
a visual delight

Guy on top of bonfire
soon is well ablaze
warming cold hands

Display now done
kids head for bed
to dream of it again

The Orange

The orange cool in my hands
blood orange open in the moonlight
breathing in the fresh scent
the juices savory stroke my lips
blood orange open in the moonlight
plump and painted red in my hand
the juices savory stroke my lips
gloved by stippled orange skin 
plump and painted red in my hand
breathing in the fresh scent
gloved by stippled orange skin
The orange cool in my hands
