The Lawn

I feel like writing silly tales
About a typist who had long manicured nails
She tapped the typewriter so slow
Until her boss told her she had to go
To employ her was beyond the pale

Freedom To Go Insane

Allow yourself
The freedom to go completely insane

Our existence
Is not meant to be
Suppressed, manicured, and precisely arranged

There's a lion living inside
The realms of the beating heart

Birds of Love

birds of love
nest on the roof of
the enthralled
souls
long nails blue and red
like blood
manicured and pedicured
caress without 
hurting
red hair of rage envelope
the mysterious mind
Form:

Stardom

She stands, hallowed in sunlight, no, limelight
Waving manicured hands at screaming fans
Smiling at the flashbulbs
Empty eyes not really seeing
Empty mind not really comprehending
Empty heart constanlty weeping.

Hate

Through the manicured lawn hate crept  eating
soil
It hid its face
  the sun and moon soon spied the long shadow
by
watching the aphids
run and hide
This I took as divine right
 and smothered hate within a killing jar

Premium Member Dandelions

Dandelions are Mother Nature’s gold medallions, Hated by master landscapers as obnoxious weeds Marching across manicured lawns like battalions, A whiff of wind releases thousands of their seeds.

Clean Hands Filthy Minds

hands are clean manicured
perfumed groomed
our minds are dirty filthy
they plot and judge greedy
amass and accumulate
fire fuelled of fear
insecurity is an addiction
accumulators breathe heavily
our minds are dirty
the stains of innocent
blood
Form:

Culprit of Love

deep strata of yellow rocks
spreading the fumes of sulphur
hiding in the basement
of my tranquillised memory 
for an investment of return
i am a culprit
culprit of love
sentenced to a life term
of labour in your
frigid tentacles of
manicured love

Premium Member Equality

Every well worn pair of cocktail gloves
quietly passed down 
untarnished but imperfect 
always stretches to a perfect fit;
Lace left with unforgettable 
imprints from every manicured hand
too unique to ever be identical,
yet the style fits each woman equally.

Suburban Perfection

While gold-laced suburban skies shine, it is wasted on the child. As he pouts behind a picket fence, vanilla ice cream melts. Watching the manicured lawns grow, I long to loosen the green.

Premium Member Mirrors An Ode

I
through the looking glass
suspended in space.
caught in a daydream
blurred by destiny’s tears 
II
a personal portrait
a painting of passion
pulsating with a manicured 
imagined fantasy
III
painterly hues splashed 
upon the patchwork quilt 
of  a soul's reflection
mirrored in the heart
Form: Ode

Four Haiki

Haiku
September drizzle
Sombre green olive trees weep
Dripping foliage      


Haiku 
Sighing plethora
Rain on a Sunday afternoon 
Heavenly peace for some 


Haiku 
To be obsessed 
With a gal who rejects you
October deluge  

Haiku
Disconsolate leaves 
On manicured lawn of opulence 
Golden oaks lament
Form: Haiku

His Hands

Masculine broad fingers delicately pluck the strings
fingernails manicured to perfection.
His knuckles tight and tense
his right-hand moves with such expression.

The sound is soothing and calming
his left hand soft and warm expertly plays.
His face in concentration
he looks at me with a smile quickening the pace.

Plastic Smiles

hollow shells
of people smiling
plastic smiles
white picket fence
2.5 kids
suburban street
manicured lawns
walking on leashes
their fabricated dogs
priceless crystal 
sits on the 
coffee table waiting
waiting for one
little teeter 
one little totter
to crash
into pieces
hollow shells
of people smiling
plastic smiles

Miss America Revisited

Wrinkles deepening with the fleeting years
Show worry and sadness and nothing to come.
Her starry eyed plans are now in arrears
And gone is the look of delicious aplomb.
Her world-class body brought whistles and cheers
Now hid under muumuus to old age succumb.
She works on her tan on manicured lawn
Dreaming of pageants until she is gone.

Premium Member Summer Expectations

Appreciating days ahead,
With spring fast moving on,
The joys of summer beckons,
With loveliness wide spread.

While lying on a sundrenched beach,
Or playing golf or games,
Summer is as tantalizing
As tasting a fresh peach.

The radiant and vivid blooms
Of flowers competing
With lawns so manicured and lush 
Serving as living rooms.
