Ongoing Oceans

Distant shores dreamily deepens discrete desires
Intriguing, intoxicating intimacy inspires,  
Harmonious heavenly, hearty helps heals….
Ongoing oceans overcoming ordeals.
Form: Verse


Torment

today we hide, tomorrow seek
ordeals unending, soundlessly
reaching toward the helpless meek
mindless strength is given falsely
end it all, but never does it
never are we given our life
to delay it is our source of strife

"Inside a man of steel, a towering fortress" - quote by poet.


   amidst ordeals spiritually steadfast.
  tough to break; calm under pressure;
 weathering life's tempestuous storms,
   passing tests of character and faith;
  strength and endurance like no other.

Importance

Importance


Brittle while still beating

Facing ordeals bound unscrupulous

Memories and self-fleeting

Roaming humankind, staying meticulous


Probing for thy true identity

Shedding light upon the unrighteous trials

Rummaging for crumbs of serenity

Confronting the blunt force of society’s denials

Spaghetti Soup

P erky poets penning perfect poetry
O f ordeals, oppressions, over joyfulness 
E ntreating, enticing, exciting entries
T elling the tales told through time
R ich rhyming romance, riddles and rib-ticklers  
Y es!

S avouring sensual seductive spaghetti soup 
O n lookers ovations of one-upmanship 
U niting us in ultramodern, understanding of
P oetry


Everyman

Every Man
Every man is a blind tourist
On bare feet, naked body
In the mystery world of foes
Full of thorns and venom
Battling against chaotic ordeals
Unlucky he who tours long
Fighting long folly wars
With no victory in sight
Ripening and rotting
Slowly and surely
Like tomatoes
From anniversary
To anniversary
Finally resting
In the dustbin
Forever

Nutrition must be met with healthy meals
 
Exercise tones bodies for ordeals

Water is the key to stay hydrated


Sunshine's vitamin D is top-rated

Temperance kept disciplined, a must

Air quality stays pure- no pollen, dust

Rest restores lost energy to new

Trust in God helps keep your spirit true.

Premium Member The Truth

We ask for the truth,
 but it's masked by
 televised ordeals of everything else 
we are not fortune tellers 
we don't know what the future holds 
so we sit and wait 
day after day for a sign 
that may never come
 neither psychics, fortune tellers 
or tarot card readers know 
what awaits our fate 
carpe Diem seize the day
 live for today 
because tomorrow may never come

Taming Teenybopper's Twigs

eerie odds itched
fumbling frails flipped
saucy syllables puked
nosing nocturnal nude
lanky lust birthed
heaving haughty pandemic

ordeals awed strife
taunting tuning thrives
wielding whooshing wiles

dark dribbles dripped
tracing bruised tips
laced wit's lips

trained technology thrilled
taming teenybopper's twigs.

Idleness

How long have you been in me ?
You who loiter and linger 

Shattering all my dreams 
Awating all the ordeals

Turning my bones weak 
Making my spirit bleak 

For iam growing lazy 
And admiring a life; cozy 

Forcing my forfeit to flourish 
And my serendipity to vanish 

They said idleness is destructive 
Want to undo my follies and be constructive 

Alas! Never too late
To change my fate

Icon of Syrian Revolution

How fast life goes! How slow we feel! 
When someone dear leaves us for real.
How hard it gets! How tough the deal! 
If they're sublime and have ideals. 
They pay so much and beat ordeals.
Their names spread and shake regimes.
They shine so bright and join sunbeams.
They soar so high no one can reach.
They speak a tongue no one can teach.
Such is Sarout, a martyred icon; 
A free Syria on the horizon.

The Mist

It swallows everything in its path,
even man's breath! As it slowly moving along the streets,
only mourns and screams you hear; deaths happen 
during victim's broad vision. Survivors of the traumatic ordeals
claim that fading, whitish figures tear flesh with their long,
crooked nails; in some cases they slit victims' throats - the slitting
has an eerie, audible voice. Until now, exorcists and mediums avoid
this town.....

I See Your Trees, Father

Stunning to see
How I love the leaves 
Of the trees 
And how they bend 
Over to the river.

Those stalwart trees
Standing side by side
Reaching towards heaven in prayer
Their branches extend for shades
The surrounding rejoice as I feel your crisp air. 

Each season affect our living
Your leaves changes each color
Father, you give us the strength 
To survive the ordeals of grace
Your trees witness history of humanity and time.

Best In Retirement

Best in retirement.

There comes a joy, a contentment not had before in life.

The struggles in life about over, the ordeals mostly gone.

Sweet surrender it is called but it’s more like victory.

Victory over life not had years before.

New friends become familiar, old ones more dear.

For some it is to know steadfastly they are going home.

Not to an earthly dwelling place but an eternal home.

To Loves eternity without question.

Not Everybody From Danger Flees

Not everyone form Danger flees
Some do beg for it with “Please!”
Their entreating voices loudest 
Sounds producing of the Noisiest:
Blokes who’d shun a state of Ease,
For ordeals paying all their fees,
Their unspeakable imagination, The Best’
Sure Danger, absent from the East, is in the West 

Not everybody from Danger flees:
Danger keeps advancing and they’re trees
The Gone ultimate Warrior, for example
Consuming avoidable blows, his own sample.

Taunt Smothered Smooches

bounty braces grumbled
humming hoisted hurdle
sassy syllables strained
cremating crumbling crane
rusty rebirth bewitched
rumbling reincarnation enriched

callous colour bruised
blueish orange blooms
dark dual drool

mystic moaning etched'n
punctured pruning crest
smiting succulent breast

voluptuous ordeals vying
taunt smothered smooches.

Note: Of nocturnal nature. Inspired by a picture of the cloud I took this evening.

Premium Member Love and Leather

I believe in the truth of two wheels
Of farmscapes and lakeshore drives
A refuge from ordeals
Where turkeys flock and freedom thrives

I believe in the prayer of engines
A faith into the pastures sound
A people moving in all directions
United by a hope unbound

I believe in highway justice
Law laid down by county roads
A banjo picking a song of oneness
The tune that our whole country knows

I believe in love and leather
And the beauty of our rides together

Persona

Amazing buildup of affection,
She is an iconic vigour,
Fights with society 
To affirm her existence 
In this bitter world.

 Owns the wings of courage,
 Aspires to touch the horizon,
 Smashes stereotypes,
 Eludes the cage of suffocation.

 Compiling memoirs of ordeals,
 Blazes her woes away,
 Reflects a gracious smile,
 And utters words in appraisal.

 Illustrates a glorious extent,
 Prompting decisive impulses,
 Attempts to fortify her pals
 Towards their prospects.

Loneliness

Lost in nothingness
Isolated, separated, devastated
Searching for a place to call home
But where can you go
Where sunshine and eloquence thrive
To not be sunken by loneliness
Omens take you out of mind
Will it last
A mere reflection of disgust
Felling like you can't find no one
Felling like no one looks for you
Searching for things to take you high above
In a time of need
In ordeals of a firm slit
Shedding the emptiness
Sick of living lies dripping in tears
Left all alone
