Her loving gaze,
Lovelier, kind, and warmer,
Than a moon

Sweet as the sugar
I scatter; illustrious
As these drawn sweet hearts,
Truly a sheet lovelier
More than any love letter....

By giving birth you've lost much loveliness,
but thou art lovelier now in fullness.

So beautiful!!!
I see them as Kings and Queens
blooming and creating the room
full of joy.
Can't talk but they never
need perfume as they smell
lovelier every time I visit
their homes.
Proudly growing like a 
human sickle in 1 year....

A lovelier flower I never did see 
than the fair beauty that now stands before me.
A lovelier music I never did hear
Than the sweetest voice of one I hold so dear.
I never felt a purer or truer thing
Than when on your precious hand I placed that ring.

Paper boats float on the breeze
more fragile than rose petals,
and lovelier in dawn’s light.
Adorned with soft-colored sails,
each one glides with handmade pride
and the sweet breath of childhood
unaware of their demise.

YOUR SHADOW


As I opened my eyelids
You went away
But….
A ‘you ‘in dream
Is lovelier than the ‘you’ on heels
And still lovelier is your shadow 
Like greenery
More idyllic than the hills.  
 
Stay
Or would you ever like
Somebody in your ignorance
Seeing you, Dear,
At will?...

She looks into the mirror and turns away. I can't stand looking at myself, my
beauty has gone away. No it hasn't the mirror image says. Look again at yourself,
You are as beautiful as a warm summer day. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. 
You only get lovelier as you get older....

Your are mine
I am yours
Not a possessive noun
that expresses property, 
but a meaningful word
declaring our decision
to share the best we have--
to listen, to honor,
to understand,
to cheer each other,
being who we are,

You are mine
I am yours.
Together life is lovelier....

There's a tale of old
that has a throne of gold,
a sunflower for the queen.
Her bright silver wings
shine when she sings.
A lovelier Fairie I've not seen.

Her name is Dakin
and she has taken
a dragonfly for a friend.
In fantasy worlds
dreams are unfurled,
and pretending never has to end.

Washing spinning suds
Watching. Thinking on spring things
Carnations in strict 
Formation and blue roses
Poses on balconies.

With BLINDING beauty 
All are blooming and smell of
Fruity confessions
With their beauty fragrant
Fruity concessions they are

Doing their duty making
Life a lovelier WORLD...

Well knowing how the powers of the mystic chords of memory endure,
And that history alone has made today a sure,
I calmly wait for a normal return of our lives.
I’m full of hope, as in a time like this only hope survives;
Assured of a lovelier day than when we begun,
Full of pleasure, and treasure fine, and fun....

I’ve a face for the radio well suited
And a voice at it’s best when its muted
I’ve got knees that are bony
I am ever so moany
My opinions are frequently mooted

But do not be put off by this verse
For I’m sure you could do a lot worse
I’ve a manner that’s kind
And I think you will find
I look lovelier from the reverse...

Walking aimlessly
Suddenly a star entered 
A poem happened 

What was the poem
A cascade of golden light
On her hair and neck

How lovely you look
Said golden neck,the light said,
You are lovelier

The bird in my vein 
Said to both of them, good morn
They smiled, glint on Nile

Year - end night here waits to birth 
Lovelier princess, vaccine girl   
Mountain high does labour earth  
Squeaking rat now, leaps for a whirl.

April - a goddess - 
Lives just down the street
A lovelier girl
You never will meet

It seems I was born
With a ring in my nose
So April could lead me
Wherever she goes

But she fell in love
With someone at school
And I became known
As THE April Fool

Though April showers
Resurrect flowers
Sweet April's powers
Haunt all of my hours!...

Oh lovely rose song
Pressed in that book for so long
Music can't be wrong

Memories that stay
always recurring array
Learning how to pray

Thoughts engraved so deep
Everlasting pure, keep
Reminding of love

Oh that lovely rose
Pressed in that book that was closed
She lovingly chose

Memories that say
True love won't take her away
Momma I miss you...

Sweet Juliet Rose

of beauty composed, 

with cupped rosette form of old-

Emitting from blooms,

Sweet tea-rose perfumes,

a fragrant scent to behold-

                            

Sweet Juliet Rose,

elegantly posed,

with delicate textured folds-

Hybrid perfection,

with peach complexion,

no lovelier bouquet sold-...

Sunflowers in their glory are a happy sight to behold.
When planted they provide joy tenfold.
Sunflowers have wondrous magic powers,
You will instantly smile looking at this flower.

Their giant sun-kissed blossoms head for the sky.
Tall and majestic, they are a feast for the eyes.
I wish God would let sunflowers grow year round,
A lovelier sight cannot be found!...

CINDERELLA  CITY

St. Petersburg is lovelier than Paris as a city,
As anyone visiting  both cities will agree.
Like two fine women,  but one has more money, 
More friends to boast of her charm, make her plea. 

The other, poorer and in need of a dress,
Works hard, survives, and  is cheerful.
All she lacks is a godmother wonderful 
And Cinderella city becomes a Princess....

Peaceful meadow felt like consecrated ground.
Barely a noise, one songbird’s tweets.
Lovelier on this summer morning than I could have imagined.
I reposed in the grass, smelling lavender nearby.

Lying on my back, communing with the sun,
I felt like God had created this dreamscape especially for me.
A blue dragonfly zipped into my view, then gone.
Her presence verified my feeling; consecrated ground....

Listen to Self 


Listen to inner self                                     
                       right here 
Believe me you will 
                       never fear 

Hasten your activity 
                       with fervor
Relieve  you really 
                       from disfavor 
Fasten your practice 
                       with livelier
Lively life becomes 
                       more lovelier...

Lovely is the name he bequeathed her 
on occasion he could recall when they met
variable soft silkens rest upon her breast      
even her lips pursued his inner mindset 
like every young man consumed in fascination 
insecure,  doubtful, hesitant and now totally finished 
even before he could begin to approach his lovely
sullen was his smile, "Would you care to dance?"
together the silkens now lay upon his lips

Parody of Joyce Kilmers  ‘Trees’
for  Victoria Beckham

I think that I shall never see
A poem lovelier than me
 A muse whose hungry mouth is best
Pouting pretty as my breasts
A verse that looks so good all day
And lifts my hands that all might pray
A model that may in summer wear
Parts of animals on my hair
Upon my bosom a sportsman lies
intimate not very wise
poems are made for fools you see
but only God could have made me...
