Short Imageries Poems

So trippy pretty.
Wish there were flashing colors
Hypnotizing me
With shining imageries,
Enchanted via drummers....

Suddenly seeing imageries in the shed's wooden planks,
As though my own mind is playing optical illusional pranks,
Finally have found the right high that hits me like heavy tanks....

Imageries of tribal stench
Streets stretched in stray bullets
Carcasses charred in church
Women slit in the dark
A conglomerate of conference table
Littered with  coffee and curfew
Monkeys mourning
Centre crawling
Sentiments sighing
Jos, a shadow....

Take the terrific tour:
Walk with words,
Sing sweet songs,
Rent real rhymes,
Make mild melodies,
Pen passionate poems,
Involve inspiring imageries,
Wield wholesome words.
Talented? Take time to
Intrigue, impact, instruct;
Take the terrific tour....

VICTOR HAILS FROM MALTA

I picture you on your island of Malta,
fine treasures you mete with nature
and lovelorn memories. My mind’s eye
froths with imageries and portraitures.

You stir the sea of Poetry Soup’s lot,
ladle out friendship and kind words.
Halfway around the world, the sun
And moon shine with blessings stirred.

Edacious dreams were left to die,
but hunger doesn't fade away.
Sweet longings that pervade each day,
reminding that our hearts don’t lie.

The brilliance of the imageries
(not fading in intensity)
press to my thoughts deliciously -
rose-colored tinted memories. 

Those dreams were never meant to be,
I fight their lure ferociously.
But nothing else, this want, appease -
rose-colored tinted memories....

paintings on the unpainted walls,

   though quaint or even mistaken,

      exude the naive hope 

          of capturing


the shaking silhouettes of shadows

   of the truth, the artful, the beautiful,

      both vague and  vivid, 

          and of coaxing


imageries to pause, to stay a while,

   as the coarse canvas the brush 

      caresses with moist hues, 

          tints, tinges....

in the glint of dew strewn mesmeric meadow, on the pearl laced 
waves of moon splashed sea I look for rhyme when imageries blow
on mindscape raising dust of emotion turning into storm of afflatus
making me a poet profound

see the miasma
rise from my blooming garden…
birds fly on lyric
