When the fog lifts

When the fog lifts and
dew has fallen, let the clouds
reveal what darkness
has hidden. Gurgled cries from
peasant victims, now silent

Premium Member A Poet Lifts Late Afternoon Shades

The mood of Autumn falls — dimmer switch of twilight. The deep, lovely sprawl — a yellow-orange sprite. 11/7/2018

Ladders and Lifts

Then teachers like ladders,
They let the children climbing up,
Holding ladders in care until finish,
Now teachers like lifts,
They let the children get in and vanish!

Premium Member Invisible Veil Lifts

As the veil does lift
We feel inner shift
A pulse magnetic
A throb ecstatic 
Bliss ineffable

The happening
Enigmatic
Joy spherical 
A miracle

Feet and palms 
Touch healing
By feeling

Steady
Current

Flows

Premium Member The Breeze Lifts My Spirits

Roses look redder
     Sunflowers sunnier
   Chrysanthemums brighter
     Queen Anne's lace whiter

   Leaves waving like pennants
     Puffy clouds sail along
   Grass green and refreshed
     Birds sing their song

   The breeze lifts my spirits
     One click saves and submits it

She Lifts Her Veiling

winter nature's prize 
                                      creamy alabaster ice
                                    wears hill queen beauty 

                                   sun's heartfelt soft smile
                                 beams upon her shying face 
                                       she lifts her veiling

Premium Member It Lifts, Defies Gravity

It Lifts, Defies Gravity 

That great curving line
made of countless droplets
in shades of aquamarine
to showers of foaming white

it creates an opening
a cave where light can spin
then plummets down again
its passion has been spent

rolling gently to the shore
tumbling sand and shells
small remnant lives
then going back for more.

Premium Member Lifts and Lorries

We cowboys on this side of the pond
  Get out of bed with boots and spurs on
To ride our bucking bronco golden stallions
  As you mount your nags on the weak side of the ocean

Yes, we snicker as you call elevators 'lifts'
  And your truckers call a semi a 'lorry'
But daring to call a cop or a smokey a 'bobby' ~
  Odds bodkins, bloke! Please say that you're sorry!

Premium Member the morning lifts

a solitary willow weeps
a babbling brook nearby
deer and fawn present a peaceful scene
the sun begins to glisten
on the dewy grass

field mice run through the meadow
rabbits play hide and seek
bluebirds perched above
on a white pine branch

sudden gunshot echoes
everyone scatters
first day of hunting season

Premium Member The Fold Lifts - He's There in the Mist

The fold lifts - he's there in the mist
   And the world tumbles aside.
We come together and meet lips
   As Night's stars fill our eyes.

It's a world of two - two in the world.
   The rush - the fire of his touch
Enshroud us as a cocoon would
   And it's everything we want.

The fold suddenly lifts again -
   A secret knowledge now in its stead.
I face the garish morning sun
   With a smile - though twisted.
