Before I started asking,
I was too busy living
The questions still in limbo
—the answers undefined
(Villanova Pennsylvania: July, 2019)
Encased in darkness
neither here there anywhere,
locked in misery
a reminder each day
the devil keeps his promise.
© Harry J Horsman 2012
Dusty windows reflected fading dreams,
Of items treasured now lost in schemes
Of hopes long lost or freshly dashed,
Left in limbo as cheques were cashed.
The luckless leper’s lousily lobbing
Lame libel at Lords and Ladies along
His lonesome lane, a lizard in limbo
Loafing on his lowly laurels, laughing.

I'm lost in Limbo
truth will be revealed Friday
I wish time could fly
They haunt the castle halls
Lost souls of ghosts of bygone years
Adrift inexplicably in limbo circumambulate

Indifference ineptitude the soul of sorrow
I see here.. In this media led world
Laughter is bought, sentiment directed
Mankind in limbo with value de-selected.
When feelings stop,
words take over
Emotion harried,
pen unleashed
Heart in limbo,
mind resurging
Muse in waiting
—time released
(Dreamsleep: March, 2022)
if today went up in smoke
where would i be?
who would i be?
would god come for me?
i have that feeling that i'm
not alone in my questions
we're just all lost in limbo
waiting for answers
waiting for that first snowfall
its blanket of glitter
and magical hush
looking for that perfect excuse
to build a fire, to lock the door
and blissfully hibernate

.
her eyne are
staring my
at
i know it's not me
They call you untrue
Leaving with the light ~
Will you?
No more,
Your arms now my safe shore
They say you betray
Hearts in limbo ~
Will you stay?
Yes,
For your kiss forgives
All this.

With little to gain
and much more to lose
the soldier reloads
no longer to choose
A fate most uncertain
all outcome in doubt
his soul placed in Limbo
—too late to back out
(The New Room: November, 2021)
Waiting for the music,
naked and alone
the words become orphans,
unsung and unknown
The letters in limbo,
each phrase nether blown
with melody absent
—the magic disowned
(Rosemont College: December, 2021)
Chimney is blocked
Reindeer in limbo
Santa is shocked
Angels tuned out
Jesus on crutches
Crying out loud
Dice already cast
Cross nails await
Fake news unsurpassed

His Pick Me Up
He sighed her curled lips and innuendo
Her short skirt and flirting eyes his lingo
Pink flamingo rises
Passion inside skies
He hurried, his long necks are in limbo
connie pachecho

Bubblewrapped children
disparate hope
Spirits in limbo
shortest of ropes
Control and protection
their meaning belies
Tomorrow ill promised
—eternity cries
(Villanova Pennsylvania: November, 2018)
Without
your heart
open
emotion unspun
Without
the right feeling
the words
lie unsung
Without
the right words
the
verse to abate
The reader
in Limbo
awaiting
—his fate
(Dreamsleep: January, 2024)
A whole is normally the sum of all of its parts
Cept in politics, stumps even us most clever bards
All rules are out the window
The world is in limbo
We'll soon come to our senses and this era disregard
So here I am - Reincarnated
No more keeping up with Joneses
Free at last ! ... forgetting though:
They love to eat frog legs for dinner...
I was given a challenge to write a short poem by looking at a picture of a frog... :)
Like it never happened,
we greet each other with
hugs and hellos.
I see you with mutual
friends;
we drive in
separate cars:
acquaintances.
Stuck between loves,
two halves of an unmade
sandwich,
that no one wants
to eat.
In the beginning …
the past and future
were orphans
Lost in a silence
unnamed until
spoken
Waiting in anticipation
their birthrights
in limbo
The present expanding
its moment
—christened free
(The New Room: June, 2023)
Most days writing filler,
the Muse to appease
The words poorly chosen,
no ace up my sleeve
Each phrase a fulfillment,
old promises made
With feelings in Limbo
—my pen to enslave
(Villanova Pennsylvania: December, 2019)
the moon emerges
the clouds linger in limbo
peoples moods begin to change
i am lost for words
my husband begins to bite
i fall victim at full moon
karen croft
what happens during a full moon?

I want to write what I'm feeling inside as writer blocks denies.
Mix emotions in a bottle got me polar opposite
in limbo.
What a Surprise...
What a Surprise myself is trying ain't showing the truest feelings that lies.
