Premium Member A Patchwork Quilt

memories may heal 
         but some cut so very deep ~
             stitches must remain

Pink bleeds to orange 
alight with patchwork color;
The stars awaken,
their sleepy eyes catch the Moon;
Perfect Florida Sunset.

A patchwork of snow
   Lies still on green checkered fields
Melts way down below...
   As my heart stirs, renewed feels
Our love yet eager to flow

The Throws of Spring

Its spring time
When beauty is released
Like a hand stitched
Patchwork masterpiece
Nature shows off
Her spring time finery
Spread like a throw
Over all you see

Sarajevo

A patchwork city
Where danger sleeps
On rose beds in the concrete.
And the city’s eternal flame
Eternally warms 
The hands of young boys 
With the faces of old men.

Premium Member Conjoined Phrases

Art 
splintered  
pieces sewn
into patchwork;
Conjoined phrases decorate a soft quilt;

Words wrap you up lying on the sofa;
Warm and cared for,
poetry 
comes to 
life.

Edward

A red streak running till the kitties left alone
An Edward
Unfurled with the intent of being taken
A hole stitched with embroidery is an inevitable breakthrough

Premium Member Autumn Sentience

As Autumn approaches, patchwork palettes, sweet sienna sap, and savory seeds augment this flavorful fragrant season, softly cooing to the winds “It’s time, come”

Premium Member A Patchwork Pastiche

Illusions,symbols of childhood,
coloured filled swathes of painterly
hues.A  private fantasy in slow
motion suspended in space.An
abstracted blur in flashbacks of
yesteryear,caught in a daydream.

Whiskey Magnolias

whiskey magnolias...

patchwork tongues
dart at the deep glass glistening--

We are painting the
wrought-iron spider webs
with silver moonlight.

My soul and the universe
are burning
at both ends.

Poems For Fun - a Patchwork Mind

If one has a patchwork mind in his bonnet,
and the patches are not well 
stitched and sewn together,
thoughts , opinions and ideas
leak out easily through the seams
and what is heard in the end
is funny screams

Boss

Writhing patchwork
Vivified
With negative charge

Shirt-n-tie shoe-in
Lunch-n-punch reports
Control over who?

Crisp tailoring hides
Grisly quilt
Stitched of you

Alpha goat
Clip-clop
Over you

Alpha rat
Gnawing
On you

You

Premium Member Fire Raging

words
fitting-together
like patchwork,
 
then, sound spills
like a chorus thrills,

then the poem,
a fire raging 
consuming,
overwhelmingly the air,

with urgency,
I stand far away,

in timelessness.... 

listening.

Patchwork Scraps








Here in my heart lies a patchwork of scraps alongside a love, once whole and beautiful Here in my soul pastiche melodies of songs that spoke of flower fields and loving you.

Questioning Rest

Why would I silence my eyes for the night
And surrender to slumber
And a fractured patchwork of pictures,
When I could let them recount 
Each electric detail of the evening just past
That I spent in your eyes, on your lips, on your heart?

Patchwork of Tailors

A stitching of parables,
a weaving of psalms

Whether ancient or modern,
the truth plaited long

The story we tell,
with one pattern beset

A patchwork of tailors
—whose needles profess
