Short Marks The Spot Poems

X marks the spot,

And stars mark the sky,

And a heart marks my unconditional love for you....

Treasure hunting and antique jewels
Salvaged shipwrecks where King Titan rules
X marks the spot on Blackbeards’,
 gold in the sand
How far will you  go, and what will it cost
….when all is lost...

Osprey
with it's tentacles
jutting out 
plunges 
into a shallow stream,
grabbing
a Rainbow Trout;
tantamount 
to an arrow 
hitting 
the center 
of the target!
Up and away it goes!

Some pirates once used, this uncharted land,
    To bury their treasure, and contraband.
    Now, where x marks that spot,
    On a map, time forgot. 
    They all lie entombed, submerged in quicksand.

6 days till kings day, wise men visit the Jesus baby
3 kings are in a song but not in the word
Eternal life he brought with faith enough for all
X marks the spot don't miss your one shot!!

I took the challenge of the PD
Yes opinonated me!!...

aloft in the sky
this cloudless day
the stream
of southbound planes
x marks the spot
where you stood
a linger inside
my thoughts

a tender touch
in fingered breeze
your breath
upon my flesh

a blush within
a wayward sun
setting to my west...

In our palace lives a bot
    Quite a finicky task it has got

  Thrice daily removes every single spot
    from the royal server -- the '10-2-4' teapot  

  Our bot makes that teapot shine and sparkle
    in case you-know-who returns ~ Ms. Markle...

Picked a seat right next to you 
repulsed by the mere inches 
obstructing me from a touch;    
X marks the spot, 
invade my fragile bubble; 
Make me a little bit nervous, 
invite me to snuggle; 
Together is so much better, 
your vibe a soft velour blanket....

Always
be
careful,
Don't
eat
fattening
garbage.
Help others,
Initiate,
Just do your best,
Kiss daily,
Love often,
Money doesn't solve everything,
No 
one 
person is perfect,
Quick
reflexes
save
time
unless
variables get in the 
way,
X marks the spot,
Zesty poem, huh?...

No one has
One single good

Excuse for war today
X marks the spot for
Conversation
Unless people are just plain
Suicidal
Eventually the human species will

Forbid the acceptance of violence
Or curse itself forever
Revealing the fact that

Warmongers
Are cold-hearted
Rabid monsters...

There's no experience like learning that most chaos kills
I won't lie or pretend this,  x marks the spot my skin chills
An orange moon doesn't negotiate, what darkness wills
An existence plagued by pharmacies making bitter pills
So I'm crawling against the surge, brought by appalling stills
Disturbed by what relegates, our open hearts into, Roman thrills...

erect with naughty thoughts

licking your beauty marks
like playing connect the dots

squishy sensitive pink parts
wet x-rated lust marks the spot

come off as cool collective and calm
but my intimacy is sizzling melting hot

burning through barriers thick napalm
about to explode like a ticking time bomb

my bleeding heart placed
on your protective electric palms...

Conflicted
constricted in this thought of mine
Im surrounded by wants and needs
with no means of differentiation.
How can I chose a path that is unknown
Where my heart is blinfolded...
How can I follow then?

Im Stuck...
Standing on the x marks the spot and have no means of keeping the treasure
just to know i can find it.. 
Will that sastify my hunt for love?

Conflicted, Constricted, and Confused......

Lines on my chest like a treasure map
X marks the spot
Your finger trails one from left to right
I sigh
Signed their names across my heart
I didn't ask them to
Ridges, glacier lines.
Your tongue leaves a small
moist trace down the valley of
dried tears
My hand lifts your head
In a desperate plea
to stop
Your love includes scars
My pain denies them

My memory, Is a site inhabited
By a few shallow graves,
For no painful matter have I interred,
That Satan doesn’t periodically excavate it.
He’s like an aging dog, digging up old bones 
Even when I displace to another location, 
He shows up marking an x on the spot


Give me the person with burning desire,
And you can have the one with talent.

There was trouble written all over her
like a treasure map, gold buried deep
between the missing ampersands 
where to begin, 

X marks the spot

Y chromosones
like quicksand YX
rolled up, a necessary
reoccurring addiction
sage smoked slowly

then fed to the sharks 

gold buried deep
between the missing 
ampersands
the better treasure 
hidden

XX marks the spot

Yo ho ho and a bottle of wine;
Your heart will be mine.
You will make me walk the plank;
Because on your love I can bank.

Me heartie, I be coming for you.
Brave a cutlass battle, through and through.
Secret isles we will go a-sailing.
Give me another kiss, never failing.

Land ahoy, here I am looking for your treasure.
A map of your heart is my only pleasure.
I will find ye, that will be my lot;
Because X marks the spot....

Staggering thoughts through endless space marks the spot for heart felt grace.
 I gaze with desire for kissing action looking close to see reaction.
 she closes eyes and parts her lips as i pull her close grabbing hips.
 she holds me close with arms pulled tight knowing the moment is perfect and right.
 She whispers softly close in ear take me now forget the fear.
 The night is young our emotions are free lets do this together you and me....

A telephone pole
With a white painted mark
Next to a large rock
With moss on it
On top of a dirt patch
Where grass is near
And surrounds the scene
A small bush or tree
Wraps itself around the pole
Still revealing the white painted mark
Which marks this spot
As our area
Of pure romance
Where it all started
When love bonded us
And wrapped around each other
A spark of memory
In our minds eye
To hold always
By the telephone pole
With a white painted mark

X marks the spot if it’s V plus V
Or what XC needs to add up to C.
To the left of L or perhaps the right
There’s a difference some would consider slight.

Once the C’s add up, then it’s time for D
Which will last ‘til M’s a necessity.
Then it’s fun to challenge a boy whose path
May be one that follows the joys of math.

Placing X and I, L and M and C
To make sense brought smiles to both him and me
So we stopped at the point when I’d taught him plenty
And he knew MMXX was 2020!...
