Inspiring Sadness
Shuffling off
this mortal coil
with nary
a shout or whimper
wearing mismatched pyjamas
different slippers
and unmatched socks.

In vain
This pain


Not much
To touch


Climb high
Plunge sighs


Fast drop
Last stop


Speed blinds
Lost mind


New dread
Drops dead

Hamlet
In the Dane's 
Tormented soul 
Expectation waited for nightfall 
And nightfall for the apparition 
Of a noble ghost.

Take a sip
On this trip


In good time
Taste rich mime


Tea cuppa
Not mocca

Fine form stews


Quick clear taste
Sip blunt haste

Not much to say
No need to play


Pray on the way
To flood this day


Words have a way
To string fine say 


All in good time
Touch circles rhymes

A Grinch in a hamlet of Whovilles

Stole credit cards, ringing up big bills

     Without checking price tags

     He murmured, “Bah, Scumbags”

For this is how grinches get their thrills!

Deep cold chill here
Thaw frozen cheer


Moon gaze of sky
Stars up so high


Late night sows dark
A lone dog barks


Dark spreads lost light
Eyes ache lost sight

MOVE


Meet moments meek as art attires,
Opt thus to seek a genuine fire;
Voice in fond peek that surge of charm,
Etch as you flick truth that inspires.
