Chill In the Air

Like mahogany, 
I am no longer free 
to create.  Inch-by-inch 
the square above steals fire -
now gold dust turns to vapour.

Destiny beats kings queens like black drum
Rising to the challenge hard for some
Unknown forces of evil to overcome 
Mahogany strength comes from the son

Looking at the scarp
Of the mahogany cliff
Cerulean tides
Calm down the racing mind thoughts
Offering a peaceful state

Forgotten

So many days, 
So many moons
Have drifted down and by
still and calmly.

Like these 
Forgotten kisses
Under the grey shade
Of Mahogany in
A summer day.


Voodoo Mask

Haunting, oh so haunting,
  Hanging --
On the wall over the chair;
  Hanging --
Made of ‘hogany...
Mahogany with human hair; 
  A relic,
      With an icy stare.

Mahogany Wind

Unfolding your 
Paper mache wings
Greeting this
Reddish brown
Mahogany wind 
Yes, sweeping 
These golden leaves, 
Swirling you, again
Around this 
Pink carousel

Premium Member Black Rose

Ink
death rose
gothic mood
gallows bouquet
sweet scented aroma, grave companions
deep Mahogany, blood stains, velvet touch
doleful embers
charred petals
mournful
grief

Brewed Concoctions

aromatic and deep mahogany
decoction swirled with steam
a cupped nectar of rebirth
morning glimpses of heaven
first sip a remembrance
nuanced tincture
delicate demitasse
mmm...Mine

Wakeup

Unmistaken and unread
Words, walk, wakeup
Past the mahogany dresser
And the ruffled feather bed
Behind the sunrise
Where love speaks red
Words, walk, makeup
She is a woman
Unmistaken and unwed

Sanctified

The dawn's quiet benediction 
sanctifies the soft 
drizzle

     dripping through the canopy 
     of that majestic 
     mahogany,

          unto my humbly bowed
          head, quietly 
          anointing me!

sanguine arrangement next to a ruby glass candy bowl
geraniums crisp and ruffled, sitting on a mahogany desk
cherry wood vase with a scarlet plume next to crisp white paper
inspired to write my striped circus clown shoe poem

Ascend

Of the earth,
Mahogany hue,
Simple plan,
Swathed
In morning dew.
Unadorned husk,
Natural beauty dwells,
Radiant spells,
As encroaching dusk,
Dawn’s a new day,
Appendages beat their first,
Luster and splendor burst
And true colors
Ascend.

DAYDREAM

Rainy April day
In the fog    drenched leaves drooping
All nature asleep
It’s Sunday morning o’clock
Kitchen dry    the coffee hot

An old hollow log
Mahogany in the wet
Lay in our backyard
My eyes hurry inside the gloom
Wonder    wandering

Premium Member Silver Haze

Bonfires of autumn
Smoke blends with silver moonlight
softly shimmering
under mahogany skies
as crystal stars all sparkle

Colorful leaves flew
down yesterdays of our lives
on fresh, cold breezes
Hues December remembers 
like pearl moon's recall of gold

Wood-Fox, a Sculpture

WOOD-FOX, A SCULPTURE

The fox has drawn a circle
around herself. Deep-red 
rich as mahogany. Who carved
these eyes so they etch
a silence in the room
as we go about our reading?
She inhabits a stillness 
between the words, a quiet 
that survives underneath.

Premium Member The Peace Behind Ethnicity

someone asked me to define the peace of ethnicity
I am just a Mahogany child
of Babylon
sitting in my tree
my grandfather planted this tree
I am sitting in my grandfather's tree
eating a strawberry
reminiscing
that is what peace looks like to me
I am ethnicity.

Premium Member SMILES

Someone needs your courageous white words
Make mahogany efforts to be hazel heard
It matters not if you have eccentric emerald style
Long as you’ve got heart and that silver smile
Enchanting encouraging ebony embraces
Silhouette of love across fuchsia friendly faces
Form: Acrostic

Cat Eyes

Moew...
I wonder why
People use their bright black eyes
To glimpse the dim corner
Are they chief mourners?
If not...
why they keep crying on that mahogany desk?
Are they an actor of burlesque?
Or they only act as a deterrent 

Human-being is so...
Difficult to understand

Premium Member Raindrop

Raindrops fall from gray sky
As amethyst tears from brown eyes
Images tattoos on mahogany minds
Neon signs of division so unkind
Dear ones when death comes for you
Remember only love will embrace who
Others have cast away with hard hearts
Pray for faith and light despite dark
Form: Acrostic

School Bus Mahogany

Do you ever stop to think that you're a bus?
No I don't mean a vehicle that would go to toys r us 
I mean an actual bus
Thats a representation of all of us
They stop at red lights 
In spite
Of fights
Lonely nights
A low kite
A repetitive life
Green light, go 
And that's the show
