Revealing Peace

Revealing peace, presented by my mood,
Persuades the world of feeling all its streams –
A thread of legacy appears by my side.

I Love You

I love you:
Words easy to say
Sweet to hear
Hard to depend
Hard to rely
Mostly persuades you
On too much happiness
Though sometimes no truth in it.

She Waits

I hear a voice 
calling me off in the distance
my thoughts become
Distorted the more that I listen
she persuades me to leave
all hope of stability
to join her on the flipside
where nothing ever goes right

Premium Member From Darkness to Light


As the sun lifts the shroud of darkness, Light surrounds and lovely sights come into view; A palette of colors in the sky, A plethora of blooming beauty on the land. Each dawn persuades us to be a wick of flame And teach the world the grammar of light

Premium Member You Look Scary

One old barber who confesses he's weird
Persuades his clients to cut off their beards --
   Quoth he, "You look scary!"
   Razors them un-hairy -- 
Screams they're even scarier fully sheared

Dear Jack,

Even your liquor,

Agrees with me, 

That you're stinkin, 

From drinkin,

Oh,

I know you say,

That you love me true,

A Liquid courage,

Always persuades you,

But your stinkin from drinkin,

And I think,

Your liquor's a drunken fool.

Premium Member EURIPIDES

Today’s blessing is a thought 
Euripides first designed…
and is an important lesson
for future generations to keep in mind…

To all those people who are wanting 
To make their country great:   

When one with honeyed words
But evil mind
Persuades the mob…
Great woes
Befall the state.

Receding Shoreline





Throbbing heartbeats rise,
Patience draws a line in the sand,
Tears swallow my pride,
Turbulence persuades the tides,
Anguish engulfs the shoreline !

Shaker and Mover Person

M-over and shaker person
E-agerly persuades the gray; 
L-eading the way to mirth, 
Y-es, toward the better day.

G-reat shaker and mover person
A-ims to influence the blue; 
L-ooking for a pleasant place, 
L-iving in a lovely view.
A-s the third of September
M-eets the rising beacon; 
O-pening the morning for
S-haker and mover person.

Belladonna's Temptation

Foolish braves into the unknown
Intrepid steps only fade into the wild blue yonder
While wise old hounds still sit and ponder

How to raise brave young pups
Wise enough not to wander

Tis the lust for adventure
The temptation of the unknown
Invades and instills itself into the bones
Drives a pup mad and persuades them to run on their own

Premium Member Jealousy

Jealousy finally persuades her victims, Making them resort to the evilest deeds No good words or plausible maxims Will uproot jealousy’s dangerous weeds. Once planted in the cold weakened heart They mature as suspicions and doubt, Raising a strong impenetrable rampart Until deeds of hatred flesh them out.

Loves Tender Kiss

Softly floating on air,
   Loves tender kiss.
 Sweet yet delicately smooth.

Always bringing me closer
 and easily persuades me.
Invisible yet so tangible...
 undeniable it will be.

Luscious from those lips,
   Loves tender kiss.
 Lightly bringing me heaven.

This temptation of yours
 teasing me every time.
Still leaves me with
 sweet memories so sublime.

laughter rushes   summer cleanses
                            subverts subsistence 
children ramble  seaside scramble
                scribble sand
            
hamlet beckons   hangout persuades
                         hermits wade
worship freedom
                wooing
emissaries 
                dripping
leisure
                wedges in

Premium Member April

Raindrops and showers,
April opens its windows
looking at the flowers.

Cloudy and sunny days,
cold and warm feelings
crossing different ways.

April has magic sleeves
that you can hide or show,
as well as your slept dreams.

April is like an old singer, 
recording songs every year,
staying and trying to linger.

April turns dark days brighter,
It persuades the birds to sing 
their better songs much higher.

Premium Member She Goes After Her Man

She knows who she wants, so she goes after her man.
Able to convince everyone, she persuades as she can.
He is on an island, so she steals a Wyandotte’s canoe.
He tries to escape, but she ties him up with a lace from her shoe.

I am not interested, he says, I am taken, he lies.
She knows it is not the truth, she has talked to his guys.
She and his mother are in this together.
She marries him a month later, in downpouring weather.

Losing Pace

The mirror’s the scariest place
For gazing at my aging face.
I realize that I’m
In the race against time
Fairly certain to lose in disgrace.

Clothes and make-up can help to erase
Certain wrinkles so I can embrace
How I look for a while
And by adding a smile
I can put forth a credible case.

Yet what tells me that I am off base
And persuades me to give up the chase
Is the camera my spouse
Likes to click, which can douse
All my confidence, leaving no trace.

Premium Member When Nature Decides

When nature decides to precipitate As surely as the earth revolves around the earth, it does not deign to hesitate, Consider it done. A truth I’ve sought and diligently found Weather patterns arrive both soon and late Nature’s ways are both consistent and sound. If climate changes, still she will not wait to control what moisture covers the ground Freezing it persuades us to concentrate, Consider it done.

Shining Force

As the dreamers overtake me
As the sunshine still forsakes me
As the rain above awakes me
To another windy night

As the dark hollows enslave me
As the tired thoughts invade me
As the swinging watch persuades me
I am losing every fight

As the ticking clock absolves me
As the falling sky dissolves me
As the twisting moon revolves me
My body of sores and knots 

As the raining swords impale me
As my eyes begin to fail me
As the shining worlds avail me
The light begins to rot

Premium Member My Hero

He sometimes persuades me
There is a better way
To handle things
But in a dedicated way, not mean.

Always takes my side
Even against his mother
Used to be a mama’s boy
Now is my man.

Sometimes gently gives me hints
Maybe I could do better
Always right too
Saving me from my impulsiveness

Always has my back.
Against the world
Would stand in front of a tsunami for me
Is my hero

Is my dedicated man.
My husband.
The father of my babies
I would trade him for no one.
