A Loan

All I have is borrowed

Love and hope tomorrow
Old times and memories
Art mine read carefully
Not the road to follow

Tonight

Come love
hold me tight
like you did before
in old times
make me feel
loved inside
don't leave me alone
tonight.

Premium Member My Dear Friend

Just like old times there's her familiar features
Peeking shyly up from the snow-clad earth,
Hair adorned with circlet of dainty flowers.
Beautiful Springtime.

Trout in sweet water 
Rising up catching fireflies 
The moon hues the waters blue

As I cast my line 
I think back to the old times
Dad and I would fish all day

Old Times


It is a mind-wandering time

Remember the old times

when illusions were distinct

Remember the old times

when a friendly chat

was all we needed

to brighten up our hearts

Premium Member Brunch

I am joining an old friend for brunch
(my calendar brings me good news). 
We will meet at the bistro, 
remembering old times 
over eggs and toast -
grab a muffin
sit beachside
and gaze - 
bliss!

Not Here For a Long Time

I'm Not here for a long time 
I'm here for a good time
So bring on the good wine

Web of Life

I try to outlive my days,
with the fear of repercussions that might haunt me later on, 
I imagine myself old yet young in a web of my own with boxes of memories refreshing the old times that I had once spun.

Old Friend

My old friend, 
I can’t wait to speak
With you again.
The rose within my soul, 
Maybe we could be…
You know.

However or whatever, 
I know it may be like
Old times.
And maybe, 
Just maybe, 
We could be two
So divine.

Forgotten String of Pearls

Sitting there in the box, collecting dust,

They thought of the old times, when they were a must.

They were worn with passion and pride,

Now they're simply tossed aside.

They yearn for the next time to be looked at with lust.

Premium Member ''Zed''

the wind blows again
     old times it blew and it stayed
you can see mountains clearly
     days we looked for them
ah to be and not to be
see the mountains, not the wind
             I am out of place.

Premium Member Arabesque

ARABESQUE  (triple Haiku) 

faded lace    old times
this favorite tune playing
“smoke gets in your eyes’

she said “I love you”
and at the moment    meant it
time jaded    spilt wine

simple arabesque
but oh    so complicated
she said    “I love you”

Need a Friend

If you need a friend, 
Then I’m here for you.
Always like old times.
When the world turns
There back on you.
I will be there by your side. 
You have me to talk to.

If you have a bad day
or some one upsets you.
You can come to me,
I will be there for you.

Midnight

Midnight, and the cork pops
All the old times miss me
Midnight, and all time stops 
As ever so gently you kiss me
Midnight, and you are with me
One minute later, you are gone.
I wish I could find an Eve one year
When midnight would last the 
Whole night long.

As Sacred Becomes the Past

As sacred becomes the past, the old times laugh youth away--
the words, the music thrilled us with elated visions of life, and
we remember her lonely seduction at the high school dance:
'In love like this, crazy but it's true--
I only want to be in love with you...'

Drifter

Being free, the fun felt good
Clouded, altered, a long way from home 
Hoofed on many roads chosen
And- all about places known
From which to go onward, and roam
Being a drifter, wandering by foot 
After all these past years yonder
Still remembering old times wander

Porsche 911

Soul matters
Driving in the Californian sun
Reaching out of your car laughing at pedestrians
River flowing clear as day
Sunlight shining
Amazing flow
Old times
Drugs
Cocaine
Mafia
Alone in the Cali sun
Diamond rings
Glowing night
Amazing women
Oooooo!
Diamonds!

Premium Member Message in a Bottle

Bottle shared
with my mom’s bestie;
and it was good
to share old times;
now even this
is past times…

The good times roll
away, like
an empty bottle…

We’d laugh,
discuss,

until I had to go
and Judy left

with an “I love you.”
The best thing said

between two.

The Good Old Times

Not everyone enters the priesthood
To molest a child
Not everyone enters politics
To become corrupt
Not everyone becomes a prostitute
To earn money
Priests, politicians and prostitutes
May have nothing in common
But children, corruption and sex
Are no longer what they used to be

Premium Member High Horses

If only you could see that we
are not so far removed
from the men who stood beside
High Horses.

And bales of hay,
and especially cotton.

Fleeting herds and commodities
on societies take a toll.

Old times should never be forgotten,
but remembered as a lesson.

Or history has no soul.

Premium Member Vintage

Stuff from old times
Odd as quaint rhymes
Hollow slant mimes


***** as light streams
Out of sight dreams
Verse of strange beams


Such fallen trade
Cascade loud made
Stuffy grain grade


Cheer old vintage
In sad mintage 
Upon odd stage

The End Were We Begin

The end were we begin

If things will look same always
Change must be a joke 
Welcome to the existence 
of a new generation
The reality is destructive
Yet real 

I hope we enjoy 
Ignorant together 
I wish  life could 
Be back again
Cos we are about 
To end the old times

Welcome to a new world

Miss U

Tears fall down drop by drop,
Without you near me 
everyday is such a flop.
I miss the good old times 
when you were always there
 by my side,
Together we were stronger 
than any wind or tide.
Please come back 
To me 
cause I need you so,
I miss you 
more than 
you would ever know. 
I simply 
miss you
