Premium Member World Of Light

The bright world of Heaven is beyond the golden sea's horizon.
Where darkened clouds are outlining silhouettes of many lakes.
Heaven's world of light indeed beyond human comprehension.

Unwanted Mail

Unwanted mail,
Discarded piece by piece,
Colors that invade around you,
Outlining shades,
Of being displeased,
Fading wasting moments,
As time takes toll,
Laughter and love,
Are lost in your soul.....

Civilization Lost

Stone homes of ancient memories
Sentinels sleeping under white
Locked in a fading breath
Of the long lost keeper.
Life trapped in timeless glass
Glimpsed amid weathering bones
Outlining the ways of forgetfulness.

The Morning Sun

Your warmth in the morning sun
Your eyes chase away the rain
Softly outlining your silhouette
Slowly brushing your hair away

Moments that last forever
Sometimes end to soon
Just as the sun must set
So to must it rise again

Pastel Light In a Memory

Her colors wrap around you
Like a blanket of warmth,
The all loving goddess mother
Breathing life into the dead.
Outlining the shades of memories 
That yearn for the still-life
That sits in the center of
A vacant dinner table.

Premium Member Winter Morn's Grass

balmy grass of dawn

outlining winter-brushed climb

as new sprouts open,

I search morn in veiled ascent

...to find sheen from godly light

Premium Member Black Confetti Gone

Our conversations quickly turn to black confetti.
Dining in separate cells.
Fingering our cell phone pals to death.
Until they turn us on.
Chips in our relationship throb. 
Yellow tape outlining respect.
Where does love go?
Oh, where does love go when it's 
gone?

Alien Romance


                As I look at the sky I tremble that it might be happening
                  The eerie fog outlining the shape of his ship
                               Now is my chance    
                                       for   
                           An alien romance

Fool Me Twice

I have never held a grudge.
Yet, I have learned many lessons.
No acid, tears, anger, or vengeance.
Solely, absent from further sessions.
Not a head of rock,
nor a heart of poison.
Avoid the outlining chalk,
brought by harmful potion.
Trying always to forgive,
for I am no perfect bet.
But wisdom has taught me this.
It is naively dangerous to forget.

White Chalk In the Rain

White chalk in the rain

I can’t stand the thought of
sitting on a street corner,
writing on the curb
with white chalk in the rain

Outlining puddles
in runoff contaminants,
bleeding into the asphalt,
following the cracks and crevices
of the last poem I wrote
in permanent ink,

when the sun danced
across her smile
and my words
brought blue skies
to the pages of
my heart’s desire

I hate chalk…..

Premium Member Night's Palette

A turquoise sky marbled with wisps of Xanadu clouds,
Framing smudges of magenta layered over wrinkles of denim,
Smeared above remnants of a setting orb
Outlining silhouettes of barren limbs stretching into space.

Let’s walk along the shadows wrapped in weary contentment
Hands intertwined in night’s rhapsody
Silently sharing the crescendo of a days demise
As it graciously releases its last breathe into twilight.

Body Language

Running my hands over your body
Outlining the features of your face
Memorizing you as you are
Wanting to bottle this moment
In hopes of preserving you & I
Seeing the star shine in your eyes
Kissing you with heart wide open
Ready to embark on this journey
Towards ecstasy
Floating in your arms
Entangled in your gaze
Becoming one with your heart
Slipping into the crevice of your soul
Where I find the mechanisms 
That make you whole.

Reborn

My fingertips moved slowly up and over your lower dark region,
          Stopping to caress your navel.
          Towards the base of your breast,
          Outlining the entire soft pendulous orb,
          Savoring this before seeking the inflamed nipple. 

          Your flesh erupted in miniscule bumps.
          Your body shuddered and your eyes closed.
          Your pleasure a tiny,exquisite death:
          A rebirth in paradise.
