Upon Her Perch

Upon her perch
she gazes down
    sights
           no
               soul

Man in the moon is
Fishing for seasonal fish
From the harvest perch

which high on a hill will perch
where God loves to lurch

Premium Member Perch For Birdies

Mr. Giraffe was as docile as a tall creature can be.
He hid among the leaves of a Cottonwood tree.
The birds discovered him and said “whee whee whee!”
He is our newest perch. They were happy as could be!

Premium Member The Novelists Perch

After school Ali wrote outside in her favorite perch
Inside the protective branches of her favorite oak
Stories, songs, riddles, jokes, they flowed here
She was prolific her mother told others later.

At the time she was too shy to share her work.
No one saw it until years later, and this suited her.
She became a novelist, but remained humble
Remembering her favorite perch with pure love

When Love Perched

When love perched on my window sill I closed the curtains and prayed for its demise.
When I asked love to show me favor it grinned with a devilish smile,
When love was said to me it was only out for its own interest. 
There figures came and went, yet disappearing like baby teeth. 
Love stayed away, stretched as endless as the galaxies. 
I opened the curtains and yet love still remained, perched high in its forgiving state.

The wind sang
The bird,
He said he spoke in chirps 
The chime rang 
Nine thirty, 
Invoking church 
He grinned and in slang, 
He softly spoke his favoured verse
“He said bang,”
Declared the word
“And there’ll be a cry from the wayward Perch.”

Find me by the gardens, 
The flowers follow the suns guidance. 
Poems of complete jargon, 
The power in words are intended for defiance. 
Then the bird remained in silence.
