heartbreaking aqua
tears tearing from lashed sighs
run in wakes of blue
endless fountain of grief’s fall
wipe salt filled eyes

Stormy Day

Howling wind,rain lashed porch,
            Garden in disarray,a wintry stormy day.
Stay inside, wait for tomorrow

Target

Tested,
hunted,
singled,
chased,
cornered,
lashed,
to fatality,
he wanted to be away,
but they got their way,
and pulled out life's last ray.

Sprinkles

The King lashed his horse with the rein
And galloped up front in the rain
When he lifted his sword
It was, 'Farewell my Lord'
For that was the end of his reign

Almost Got Me 3

Lashed 

to the mast 
of
your sinking ship

a captain

who finally lost
his grip

at least the grip you
had on me

Thank God 
I am 
a 
woman
free.!

The seafarer

I was sailing alone
in the stormy sea of life,
Sullen thoughts invaded my mind
Dark waves lashed my heart
Until you came aboard,
lost at sea, my soul found the shore.

Ending War

Lashed together
for a better tomorrow,
ending war of words.

Heralding the new
moon I sacrifice
my becoming age

I will sleep now
on hawthorns in bleeding
flames of forest.

Premium Member Uh-Oh Makes a Boo-Boo - Oops

Uh-oh met Oops
    made an egregious error

  Mistook Oops for Boo-boo
    thought a kiss'd make it better

  Oops lashed out
    called Uh-oh a name

  Boo-boo's not cured ~
    Is Uh-oh to blame

Were Startled and Cringed

Were Startled and Cringed

We had become startled  and then cringed,
Loser Trump lashed out and was unhinged;
We would wonder,
About his thunder;
His stupid hair looked ugly like it is singed.

Flutterbyes
 of lashed 
luscious Every-Knows
my soul the Blue Morpho
Butterfly my mind laced
black edges my breasts
fluttering bright blue!

Rain

I woke and smiled to hear the rain
That lashed against my window pane.

It rained so hard I laughed with joy
And splashed like I was still a boy.

Perhaps you think I’m quite insane -
But why do people hate the rain?

Premium Member Too wet to woo

Too wet to woo

I'm sure a white owl flew across
Car headlights traced his grace
When seen, I always think of Dad
Wise written on his face
The rain lashed down, my love so distant 
Too wet to woo, the owl insistent

Lashed Lilac

Through the gate of the dale
flew a garrulous gale
tearing through branch and leaf.
We watch; wait for relief.

Leaves and twigs lie scattered;
blooms from the lawn gathered
into a bowl, displayed,
admired before they fade.

Shame

Shame
My foe
you make me
cover my face
when I`m being mocked and 
lashed with virulent words,
My legs wobble on the street,
heart racing with unfathomed fear
as if stranded on ~land of vipers,
Unperturbed zeal for success covers you.

Premium Member My Falling

See what beauty life expended
Given to my blessed tree
In my glory colored ended
Lashed the wind has taken me
From my place among my brothers
Flying free until we meet
Tumbled aimless all descending 
Prone in honor at your feet

Premium Member guessing which pumpkin is Barbies

can you guess which pumpkin is mine? Barbie says to us.
No idea, lies Auntie Mame, Uncle Henry and my dog Gus.
I roll my hazel eyes at their pretensions, for next to the sink
lies a gorgeous long-lashed-eyed pumpkin completely in pink

Wonderful Awe7

Oh the wonderful awe I sense
As the great ocean greets me.
Her rhythm and majesty so intense
yet so soothing and free.

Though my soul may be adrift
or lashed to some calamity
Her waves do tether and are swift
To center my reality

Peices of You

Pained memory     A hurt of kind
Inbedded deep       This tapeworm of time

Like the distant rings of Saturn
Now on outer edges    Once the centers core

Still lashed by length of  reach
Peices from the heart
Fed-upon, forevermore

Sweet Children

We sweet children
who came in from the storm
(smoke & lantern hung from roof-beam)
(lashed by frigid torrent; black moor)
came trembling to the foot of your chair
and your eyes flashed & flamed like Death
and you stared at the wall.

Premium Member The Better Choice

Lashed by rain
I sheltered 
beneath
its wind bent
height
in its hurl
of leaves
and whip slap
of bark
against
a huge trunk
below
its creak
and rising
roar
to a sudden
crack
in fear
the better 
choice
would have been
to get wet.

Silence

Words,  dumbstruck
Hushed, stuck
Seething, soundless
Tongue tied, speechless
Still, in a stupefied daze
Lashed by roaring waves
Of silence, pin drop
Strummed a mute song
With echoes across
The  entire cosmos

Desert Rose

A pretty little rose born in desert land
Growing in torched hot sand 
Where loneliness all around 
And no company can be found 
Lashed by sunlight
Dry out in hot thirsty night 
Though don't know why to live 
Fragrance it can give 
And it will do 
Thought I can't smell you

Jane

Out in the park, lashed by rain
a girl, heart torn, cried under a hat
there in the ground, buried her Jane
an old brown manx, as flat as a mat

Pound for pound, not pretty but plump
Marcus, the neighbor, two pies, not enough
fast to the market, tripped over a stump
Jane at his feet took her last puff

What God In Me Crushed

What has God in me crushed?
Hunger to have things rushed!
Which words of man God hushed?
Ones that made faces flushed,
Where could God have gains slashed?
In account money stashed!
How has He some men thrashed?
When their speeding cars crashed!

Men whom God never lashed:
Those who had promptly blushed.
