Letting Go

Grimacing faces
With teary-eyed composure
Look out together
At their capped and gowned daughter,
Happy, yet sad, both know why.

Graduation Day

At last, their big day.
Gowned, smiling, hopeful and proud.
Graduates, conferred!

Premium Member Ghouls

Gates of hell were opened
Guttural groans were heard
Grotesque ghouls overhead
Gowned in gossamer gauze
Gnarled fingers reached for me
Guilefully, they took flight
Gory night of bloodshed

Love you even more

Parachutes are for girls
Soft beautiful things 
gowned in silk wings
Curls, linen, lace
Wisteria eyes
Silver snake tongue liars
Asking for wishes
On evening stars
Forgetting 
Even stars fall

Premium Member Are We

Through felicity gowned greens and idyllic hues Such plethora rhapsodic throwing dulcet trues Chrysalis skies in simple radiant Sapphire clouds never evanescent Talisman, we're here or are we sent! .


Wind Nymphs

Stands every headland upon
Each, seaward facing
If but felt a-twirl
Outlines a young girl
Diaphanous-gowned.

There, beneath, rising up on
Whose frolicesome air
Made of whom, wave-high
Or just teased in by
Delirious sound.

Premium Member Frozen In Crystalline - Number 7

A druid climbs the sacred oak, white gowned
to bring the holy mistletoe to ground. 

With a golden sickle in his hand,
caught in his vestments, its brought to land.

Then, they feast beneath the sacred tree
gifting two white bulls for God's bounty.

A Red Sun

A Roses’ red
Blush of life and wonder
Lips of Saints kiss the ground
Dipped, dripped, gowned, and drowned
Floods of what the sun bled
Sweetness was profound

Color of love
Kisses of wonder
Pure blanket surround 
Dive into the free
Like boats at sea
For Beauty was around

Freedom is an ultimate thrilled

tide that quickens my praise filled 

breath as its promising, prism gowned 

waves pound glistening visions upon  

shores that tease my tingling touch 

by denying a complete catch for my

own freedom cache of liberty abilities.

     Oh! serene spirit,

     White gowned on sun flecked waters.

     Majestic in your slow glide.

     What intelligence

     Guides you silently along

     The river’s strong flowing path?

The Rain Maker

Sweet rain is hammering the dry ground
Dirt turning to muddy foundations
Leaves nodding their heads to the sound
Gaia smiling upon her creations
The earth with green is gowned
Eudora now pouring her libations
To Ceres, with grain is crowned
Patron, we give our adoration
The fruits of your harvest abound

So, Barbara Blount Hall,
solid and imposing,
very proud of itself
in photo I'm seeing.

I wish I could look
through various windows
at all the gowned masters
in charge of high learning.

Then they would see me 
and look up in surprise,
teaching thus faltering
for the while I was there.

A Glimpse of Light

My rueful spirit was gowned in a silken shroud of white. Was there no chance my penitent cries had been heard? I searched his pensive eyes for the palest glimpse of light, then he wiped my tears away. His heart had been stirred. Four line poetry contest Sponsor: Constance La France Posted: July 27, 2020

Premium Member Grand Nebula Carina

Hubble photographed her
in her finest sapphire 
and carnelian display;
a wizened sage who’s
gathered knowledge of universes
Orion takes his back seat to her luminosity.

Gowned in her elegant splendor, 
Carina’s a nebulous delight, 
upon Sagittarius’s Arm
a pageantry of excellence,
as she arrives at the universal ball.

Premium Member To Jail With No Bail

Beat spouse
Called louse

In funk
Got drunk

Left bar
Drove car

Cop stopped
Got popped

Smelled booze
Bad news

Tests muffed
Handcuffed

To jail
No bail

Court date
Learned fate

Judge gowned
And frowned

One year
Oh dear

Confined
He pined

Short shrift
Wife miffed

The Wedding Prayer

Your hand I hold
Your ring I place
Our future dreams to unfold

I see you there
gowned in white
and crowned with darkened hair

I pray my Lord
This bond we made
will remain until we get old

And if in sickness,
we cannot be as one,
by each other’s side;

Do keep our memories,
and our hearts so dear,
to each other we abide.

Grasshoppers


Green grasshoppers glide gracefully over the ground, 
Their glossy gossamer wings glitter all around, 
Their glassy feathers generate grandiose sound, 
Like glorious gladiators, some golden gowned
gorgeous grigs gallop in their gluttonous manner, 
Other garish brown ones glow like grimy scanner
as they hover in swarms like a greasy banner, 
Best, stay away from grasshoppers - that's the plan, er!!!

The Wedding Prayer

Your hand I hold,
your ring I place,
our future dreams to unfold.

I see you there,
all gowned in white,
our union we will share.

I pray my Lord,
this bond we hold,
will keep until we get old.

Past chapel fair,
past garden grounds,
our marriage we declare.

And if in sickness,
we cannot be as one,
being by each other’s side,

we preseve our love,
cherishing memories,
and to each other still abide.

My Flesh Softly Whispering

my flesh is softly whispering, "i am dead."
   as my Mind gently escapes all of Humanity\

that i am/was now/once human:  no regrets.

             the price of tuition 
with the mansion of illusionary fantasy.

    All toll:  the age of forgiving 

  is slightly gowned within white laced

/unbelieving until the moment of 

Learning & remembering we are not just

flesh now but before purest Spirit.

  And we are free!  If it rings truth.

Futureal

Bathing in a rave of golden sunlight.
I found the door that lead to that skinly gowned 
piece of my mind.
Of reason, of thirst, of intimacy.
A face, a mocking test of bested kind.
Life was jealous, of we.
It teased and it tempted.
The temperance of its temper 
was insurrected, dialected by dumb rage.
It sought to analyze us, in a separate cage.
Eternity is a long time.
Without the illusion of age.
With the heart of a mage.

The spell has already been cast.
As we walk the stage.
