A night of no dreams
A morning of thick darkness
A peacock cries once
Trying to bring back the moon
From wherever it's hiding

The peacock is heartbroken
He joins the turkeys
Because the chickens are just
Colorless walking feathers.

upon each moment
roosts a peacock- fully fanned
veiled from trite peruse
as keen eyes pause and ponder
the faint outline of feathers

Found his wherewithal did not thaw
He went by the book
So his feathers shook
But aroused his mother-in-law

Charged beneath Full Moon Leo.

Crystals cleansed by selenite.
Peacock ore shines in lit night.

The Scene

He tried to put on a scene
Because the wig he wore was lime green
He sashayed about
Like a boastful peacock
He's now a high paid drag queen

A peacock who is grounded as he flies,
will freely psychedelicize.
Take notice as you stare. 
Slowly become aware.
His tail is a hundred eyes.

With elegance the peacock
   Struts in show of vanity
   An admiration seeker
   Flaunting bold feathered attire
   Throws modesty to the wind.

Love is a see-waw peacock
With soft aspirations...
Strings with rainbow whims
Amidst laughing flowers

A fluorescent dome
By unravelling its elongated tail
Loves to roam 
Down the solitary dale
Dances soberly when finds its female

The Peacock

Admire my plumage
Iridescent blue and green
Incomparable
Quite the best you've ever seen
Watch me strut and watch me preen.

Premium Member Peacock is a Male

Fanning his tail is the male’s trick
Beautiful colors prove he is a Mick
Trying to impress a plain brown peahen
His feathers better be thick, not thin.

she wanted to be a he, for they are the pretty ones
I shall dress myself up as a peacock and become king
others were amazed at her beauty and confidence

Bursting barrel chest
peacock strutting rooster crow
amazed am I as you grow.

George Bush went up top for a walk
You should have heard Donald Trump squawk!

The limelight is mine!"

Pretty As a Peacock

I didn't know
some ants had wings
or cicadas burrowed their way
out of the soil
and out of their skin
on their way to become
the big winged creature
who sings.

Premium Member dance of the peacock

head competes with heart
our ego’s aim self-serving
clutching at fleeting shadows


blissful heart tranquil
has no narrow agenda
love’s the fragrance of a rose

peacock in still light~ a breath of hidden heaven folded in his wings still as sacred breath, he opens a jeweled silence~ colors like prayer
