New Snow

in cursive shadows
a sun mused elm composes

Haiku and Tanka

Thoughts drop from a leaky pen
A world in a drop
Splashed ink on aging parchment
Letters make words make soft sound

Crisp leaves gaily dance
As red and gold parchment gowns
Swirl on Autumn winds

Dry crinkly winter
Wrinkled parchment skin
Telling a thousand tales

Bright embers aglow
Winter crackles are such fun!

Poured out and placed in piles prepared to be resorted with patience
Put together so the picture is no longer a puzzle

Circomlocution

In a labyrinth fixed 
on parchment folio,
Words smother eyes, 
midst confounding minds.
Each jargon befogs 
what’s ought to be explicit:
deluging audience, 
in lieu of comprehension.

The Love Note

Arthritic fingers
Unfold the crumbling parchment
Stained with tears and words
Her blind eyes no longer see
And feels the deep impressions
Still there after all these years

The Love of Poetry

The LOVE of Poetry

It is the essence of literature

Flowing fondly from hand to quill

Ink spilling one's words on parchment

The Source

The raw material of art
is pain
The grandest illusion of all
is time
Whether parchment, canvas,
melody or stone
Each breakthrough immortal
—creation sublime

A Melody On Parchment

Feelings on paper
A melody on parchment
easy poetry

your heartfelt humor
delighting unknown strangers
while you ignore him

pouring out your soul
into a painting or poem
husband catches up

A Tweak From Grandma

An old fountain pen; restored to its former glory. Parchment awaits its clothing of poetry; my grandmothers words appear; not mine. Another ancestral visit; she’s tweaking me.

Angel of Poetry

Wings of none with words of many
Sounds flowing parchment laid
Pen filled thought’s racing
Twisting and turning mind

Imagination Creates
Gift received written down
Angel Gone

Stuck In a Word Blizzard

Alas, no words can I on
this parchment write,
Just meaningless drivel
falls from my pen!
And I, miserable poet,
Shouts to my Muses, three,
Not how, but when, shall
This madness cease!

Sitting Atop a Time Bomb

Sitting atop a time bomb
realised i am the fuse
imagination not my mistress
but i do like
how shes dressed
Writing words that
are never said
Words that cant keep secrets
or bleed into
the parchment
never be erased

The Poet As Artist




              The Poet as Artist


        Splashing life on parchment
        Painting life as you see it 
        Your passions pen them

Complete Loss

No parchment for to pen my verse
Nor ink to fill my quill
No destined place for words to berth
Nor is there even will
No words to write or come at all
Nor inspiration flow
No lesson learned or offered here
Nor anything to know

It Feels Like Home

It feels like home.
The click of keys on an ancient typewriter,
The perfume of ink and parchment.
The knowledge and words of those before me.
I believe it is getting too much,
The realization that I am
Holding history in my hands.

A Beautiful Work of Art

The quill is to a poet
        as the brush to an artist,
 and the ink is to the parchment
        as the paint to the canvas;
thus, a poet’s scribble is 
         but a beautiful work of art….

Words

words dry on ink blots
rambling through reams of parchment--
the pen cannot speak

clogged thoughts grow restless--
as sunset bursts with color
to open new phrases

fingers slowly draw
rugged lines taking a twist
molding  shaped image.

Write Quick

When thoughts, they come
I pen them quick
On parchment paper
With writing stick
A quill, preferred
If bottled ink
Must write them down
Just while I think
Or else they’re lost
With mind then black
With hopes that they
One day come back
