after the sirens

not anyone
had spoken for hours
but the hard hallway remembered
the sound's echo of ambulance light
and how a woman still clutched her locket

.rusted Locket.

I clutch my side. 
The photo in my pocket.
I grace my neck.
This tiny rusted locket.
My conscience in my mind
Is telling me I'm fine.
It seems I can't
get over you.

Skeptically Open Lovers

Open a bigger locket
In devout letters
To unhinge hours morality
Fending the pessimist off
Grasping empty,
Inlaying foundations
To refine and revere the life's span

Premium Member Living On The Edge

A chance for life and risk of death in my left pants' pocket,
A photo of my first love in my make-belief locket,
While living my own life on the edge just like a sparkling sprocket.

An image in a locket

Thy face encased in gold 
placed at my breast,
all I have left

Yet, how am I to hold 
an image in a locket?

Old Photos

piano rocket
jazzy orchestra sprockets

no electric guitar
no electrical sockets

careful where you dance
might get hit with a lover's locket

no security here
no need to empty your pockets
bumping to trumpet prophets

Premium Member Heirloom

Harry is heartbroken,
his wonderful mother
has died. He passes her
heart shaped gold locket to
her great granddaughter. She
hugs him and places the
heirloom around her neck.

The Golden Locket

See that little girl in white
With the golden locket?
She is what you could be
She is what you would be
If I had a penny in my pocket

The Foyer of the Heart

The Foyer Of The Heart


In the center there’s
a hollow

small, enclosed,
oval like a locket

called the foyer 
of the heart.

There the bullets 
carom while 

the widow,
room to room, 

hunts her man 
around the house.

Premium Member Forget Me Knot

Listen to poem:
A long piece of string
is shorter when knotted.
Memories entwined, enraptured 
are captured, confined 
to remind in locket.
Held dangling over the heart,
on string tied behind 
the neck, knotted

What Is Love 2

what is love
is love a rose
is it of the heart
did it just arose
why cant i be apart

is it in chocolate
is it in the bed
is it in a locket
does it have to do with red

is it in a box
is it in a ring
is it in rocks
or in an angels wing
what is love

Never Forget

I reached above and grabbed a star and placed it in a locket In hopes that you will wear it every day the sun does set So when you see its glimmer as the evening starts to darken You’ll know how much I love you and you never will forget

Premium Member Why He Fought

Soldier stashed a silver locket
Safe inside his jacket pocket
When the war would numb his senses
He’d break down and drop pretenses
Open up the only token
That recalled those thoughts unspoken
Images of infant, young wife
For their freedom, he’d give his life

Premium Member Found and Lost

I found it when I was only three, 
and then I took it home with me.
I put it deep within my pocket 
like a lover's precious locket. 
I found it calmly quelled each fear, 
so, for sixty years, I kept it near. 
One fine day, it said, "look at me".  
Why did I throw it in the sea?

Premium Member Aquamarine



I wear a gemstone locket aways that holds ashes
it has oceanic hues and I get lost in the endless blue 
my most precious possession filling me with emotions
of harmony, tranquility, peace, acceptance and calm energy
a treasure forever as mom and dad are within so I am not alone
