Thankful Trees

I was loosening the soil
On the roots
Around the trees

I was shock to hear
Saying
Thank you
Taking one voice
All the trees


My Girlhood Times

Old
lattice
of brown vines
loosening their grasp
from a cracked dwelling-
Nearby,  I  trace
sweet girl's years 
bouncing 'round
trees

Premium Member Pumpkin Camouflage

It’s that time of year
         The turkeys are in hiding
Pumpkin camouflage 
No matter their endeavors
          I’ll be loosening my belt

love lays...
liquid lunar light
licking lips, lobes, languid limbs
lovemaking, loosening linens
loving looks
leisurely liaison
lingering, lyrical lovesong
love's lullaby

Premium Member Funny Limerick For Summer

Loosening her two-piece in the sun
Gail rubbed sweet cream to tan, to have fun-
     With bod on a hilla
     Ants crawled with much thrilla--
Ran she, exposing a burnt bun-bun !

Premium Member A Good Listener

She listened carefully
Without comment
Learning their secrets
Filing them in compartments

They were honored
Revealing things long hidden
Loosening up their hold
More open than they should have been.

Jazz me in



"Jazz me in"

notes climbing blue light shining pulling the heart plucking it 
on a silken satin string the ties binding loosening submerged 

Jazz me

A New Monster In Loch Ness

I saw the huge beast from the dock.
The scene evoked bowel loosening shock.
Run and hide, Nessie!
It's about to get messy.
Rosie O'Donnell* is swimming in the Loch.

evening settles soft, a calm hand smoothing edges of the day. I breathe its peace, every worry loosening in the light. in that stillness, trust grows gently, resting in God’s steady care.

Know Your Lines

Your love is scored with lines:
The thin one of a bitter smile,
Loosening after while,
The legal ones you sign in ink,
Those ‘round the tub and in the sink,
The battle-lines you draw in bed;
Lastly, lines said in your head.

Premium Member The Rose

A proud rose
transfixed by the sunlight
into awesome beauty
opens her petals wide
to fullest potential
and feels the first loosening
of a petal.
She wonders at her fate,
and further wonders why
she never thought of it
until now.

It Seems

it seems
the seams
are coming undone

each little loop
loosening
as the threads
slowly unravel
around us

all we can do
is hang on
to this little piece
of hope
dangling
by the knot
forming
in our
throats
as we pray
for a cure

Premium Member Ease up

Loosening up to let go of control as slowing down soothing my soul
Options exist to decelerate now since feeling good to unfurrow my brow
Welcoming whatever comes my way by riding the wave to lean into today
Black and white fading to gray with the middle road keeping me above the fray

Teaching What I Tawt

with this sing
i songly wed
i did you and
you did too

i bridled the not
French but Spanish
kiss thus tightening
the knot not loosening

i now pronounce you
pronouns in the eyes
of a looney tune spit
sputtering Sylvester

stutter Puddy Cat
and i say i say i say
Leg Horn as a
southern fog drawls in

I Asked For Roses

Sweet concord mellow wine
Loosening my tongue
As I tell all
To all
About you, the volcano erupting
Into my life,
Storming verbally
Crushing my heart...
But I don't cry,
Not me!
Sweet concord mellow wine quiets me
As as you claim you are mine
I ask, "Lord why me?"
"I asked for roses and you sent me a tree!"

Mysterious

Grip loosening; 
the lesser evil-

will liberate you-
from the nights terror.

The moon bleeds, 
in your bed.

A raw wound-
unblinks in pain.

No words will speak 
for the fallen icon.

The death has extracted 
its price.

Black milk exudes 
from the round breasts.

Sun was rising.

Premium Member Contentment

Sunday morning under my quilted down comforter
Coffee smells loosening tension like a good massage.
My alarm clock snores on, this being its one day off
And I gaze at the dresser replete with family photos.
Contentment fills me, dampening every exposed, jagged nerve
And begins to overflow as my cat purrs her approval.

Premium Member PORTAL

A thin seam of light appears  
where the world has worn thin.  

I step closer,  
feeling the hush gather around me.  

Nothing opens outward~  
instead, the doorway widens within,  
a soft unfastening of fear,  
a loosening of the old, tight self.  

And through that inner brightness,  
I finally see what has been waiting.

I Asked For Roses

Sweet concord mellow wine
Loosening my tongue
As I tell all
To all
About you, the volcano erupting
Into my life,
Storming verbally,
Crushing my heart...
But I don't cry,
Not me!
Sweet Concord mellow wine, quiets me!
And as you claim you are mine,
I ask, "Lord why me?"
"I asked for roses and you sent me a tree!"


Cynthia

Perhaps

A thought starts a fire
loosening the lips.
I want to scream.

Between dreams and stars
a sky hung with
inverted moon.

The desire springs a scythe
but cannot cut a
jellyfish of eye.

A sunstroke was speechless
without a sun.
The gift of a night.

The sweet tooth of a lie
scoops a truth,
king of bitters.

Taste of Freedom

Chains
Forged by you
Designed to hold me down
Loosening
Weakening

Your iron grip
That forced me to lye
To sit by your side
Unclenching
Relaxing

The web 
You cast around me
To make me stay 
Untwining 
Unwinding

Everything you've done
Broken, erased, destroyed
You have no more control
I run away to my first
Taste of freedom
