Winter Sky

Dark clouds, purple laced grays
 hurrying to the south
 blustery winds, chilled and cold like ice,
 winter's huff and puff.

Hurrying

Lazy, carefree days from long ago…
       Haunt me when I am rushed.
Why can’t the world just slow down a little?
       It’s almost as if I’m being pushed.

Harry Is With No Hurry

Patience is peace 
Hurrying to worry 
It’s like waring with the passing time 
God is with the one in patience 
Another name for God is Harry 
Then Harry is with the one in no hurry

My Mind Does Occupy

Occupies My Mind

Many things in my mind it occupies;
Like cries from all of the Trump lies;
Constantly worrying,
While I am hurrying,
And America sure was not very wise.

Exclamation Point

that simile of a smile 
in your knowing eyes
freezes whatever is left 
of my confidence.


i feel like a terrified 
exclamation point
hurrying off to the tip 
of a brave sentence!

Premium Member Orchestra Of Sky

The rain when it came 
was not unexpected
soft at first
then larger drops 
dancing puddles
ignored by hurrying passers by
I stayed to the end
and heard it all
that orchestra of sky

Premium Member My True Mission Stake-

So I rise out of my timid state; Hurrying my creative slate; Pondering my missions sake; Witnessing my season break;

Premium Member hungry hunting humpback

weird hum in the sea
a floating human-less hump
a humpbacked whale
hungry and hunting
hurrying to hurl krill
hoary humpback heaves with happiness
heads home to retain place
as hermit of the High Seas

Premium Member Hibiscus

Hues of pink, yellow, red
  How sweet its nectar flows 
  Hovering above it
  Hummingbirds sweetly sip
  Honey bees can't resist
  Here comes a butterfly
  Hurrying for a taste!

Programmed Demeanor

Our environment has programmed us not to think things out, the information onslaught has rampaged into our lives, hurrying us to the next task with no time to consider what it is what we are actually accomplishing.

the night lay draped in foggy mist ships were blurry over the coast as sun showed up in the East, fog shivered in deadly fright. hurrying to hide somewhere, fled away in haste.

HABOOB

Harried sands joins forces,
Hurrying towards us,
Heavy with thud of hooves.
Horrified! Seek shelter!
Hampered sun does not shine.
Hope sought in praying hands,
Hapless in the storm’s core.

Premium Member Nineteen Minutes On Friday

Nineteen minutes until the end of the day.
This is Friday so I stare at the clock.
Hoping it will know how important hurrying is.
These nineteen minutes feel like nineteen hours.
Just like last Friday
And the Friday before.

Retired

Strolling around town 
At prohibited time 
Ignoring the church bell sounds
While I see people hurrying 
Down the sidewalk
On their way to work 

Think maybe I'll find 
Pen and paper
And have a coffee somewhere 

Or maybe not

Teens Know It All Miracle Man 4/26/2024 When I was a young lad hurrying to grow, My intelligence hadn’t yet started to show. But today I’m alive, passed eighty-five, and amazed at things that I didn’t know.

Premium Member Hurrying For No Good Reason

The rest of the second graders saw that Millie was done.
At that age being the last to turn a page in is simply no fun.
So, they all scurried and hurried to turn their pages in.
They got plenty of answers wrong too; this was not a win.

Random Thoughts

Hurrying steps
Passed by his side
For rolling stones
He stepped aside



He under played himself
Helping others prove themselves
He gave up his roles
Making happy depressed souls



Is he a loser?
Or owns goodness 
galore?

Closing Time

I Run; Panting; Rushing to be on time.
My cart's wheel screaming clicketty clack
Hurrying through darkened city streets and alleys. 
Gnawing Hunger outweighing my fear of red-eyed rats
as scents of tonight's meal fills the midnight garbage bins.

Premium Member More Sand Please

More Sand Please By Tom Wright A man whose sole existence was from the land, Found his years were hurrying through his hand. As he fought aches and pains, He had constant weight gains, But prayed daily for his hourglass, more sand.

Tears of Grass

I moved through bushes
in the morning it was
stepping on grass
hurrying to till my garden
grass cried silently
its tears made me wet
birds jumped tree to tree
none greeted me that morn
as I scattered their beds
and disturbed their sleep
that wet early morning

Premium Member Icy

Icy northwesterly winds whip
Like a buggy whip cracks,
Hurrying the horses along
Dragging winter on its back.

Green leaves battered to the brown earth
Instant early death befalls.
Tender young fruit most likely gone
Spring unsettled appalls.

Lost In Wild Imaginations Or Vain Schemes of Some Anticipated Good

Some quiet time
no talking
no hurrying
no running
no appointments made for next milions of weeks
just sitting 
taking pleasure in sitting
peace and quiet
maybe with ice tea or nice cup of hot coffee 
looking at the sea 
and some love...
These are the deepest ones.

There You Are

Suddenly she is there,
her young face in the hurrying crowd.

I spin into a forty year old whirlpool
recall how we were
and how time has tested us both.

There she is 
emblazed upon in a strangers form

and I struck high and low,
a moonbeam washed over
the edge of a timeless waterfall.
