Premium Member Leaves Are Leaving

From whitened trees, leaves are leaving
Releasing fall, color flutters
Upon the wind's icy mutters
With a ruby river weaving
Homage to a season's grieving

Awarded An Accolade

Much homage on him had been paid;
Recognition given to with honor laid;
Person desired,
And had hired;
On then awarded another accolade.

Sympathetic Homage

They come from a country in Eastern Europe...
dreaming of freedom, reviving their faint hope;
I'm quickly learning to speak their language,
to understand them and offer courage.

‘A’ for agonies great;
‘K ‘is homage to Kalashnikov its genius maker, late;
‘4’ is the damned exponent of its murderous power;
‘7’ are the days in a week it kills, and every hour!

Dirt

It’s funny, I don’t believe in heaven, but every time I pay homage to the dead I look towards the sky.
I hope I don’t end up there when I go,
I’d much rather be the dirt travelers tread on.

About Face

Can our spirits pray
without God at the center

Can worship pay homage
to self

Can divinity reign 
in each person ordained

Revering what’s hidden

Unison

All human are equal,
Sex, faith, mind, skill, treat, mood, feet;
In "Homage" state,
Where we belong, live, controlled, undisturbed
Like chords.

Stranger, are we not equal?
Odd.

Homage To the Soup Regulars

There once was a bunch of nice poets 
Who always wrote glowing comments 
They remedied  my rhythms
They helped with my haiku
They are poetry soups, super hero's

Premium Member Golden Leaves

Trees dressed  in many
vibrant colors  pay homage
to Autumn's birth

 As golden leaves fall
and float in the breeze, it meets
the eyes with delight

A melancholy
orange sky sets the sun and
greets the horizon

Fault Lines

Spiritual draftsmen,
builders of walls
Demanding blind homage,
 tithes of false hope

Fortressing darkness,
ministering fear
Evangelist’s rumbling
—prophets who quake

Premium Member Tiresome

how
dull~
patterns
become worn
and then commonplace,
tiresome repetitions of self
imposed standards of beauty, exiling the beastly
unkempt dregs of society who only take and refuse homage to perfection

She Laughed Her Ass Off - Homage a Mike

She laughed all day
She laughed all night.
She went to bed
and had a fright.
Her ass was gone.
It wasn't there.
She laughed it off.
but didn't care.

Imagine sweet winter, through wishing white snow, Leaves trees and foliage, with a delicate glow. With the children off sledding, and the cocoa so sweet, 'Tis no wonder why winter, is such a great treat!
