Short Phosphorescence Poems

Pisces
Jewelled and bright
Navigating the dark solitude
in their phosphorescent paths
Creatures of soft flight
beneath the sea...

A firefly, named Phil, quite the spark,
Tried to signal a plane in the dark.
He flashed with his light,
Caused the pilot such fright,
"Is that runway a bug?" was his remark.

…and as we walk
You and I
Hand in hand
Into the golden phosphorescence
Let us remember
The trail we leave behind
For our issue may 
One day in their lives
Wish it were they
And not us
That first explored it…...

I lay on the turf
one night

I turned the
sky upside down

And into a black sea
and rode a canoe

And paddled and saw
myriad phosphorescence below

Twinkling one after
Another and so on . . .

A Delphic phosphorescence nests
Kindled was the yellow flame
Exclusive ulterior vibes rest
A Delphic phosphorescence nests
Sensibility shan’t ever subside
Upon sojourning the grain
A Delphic phosphorescence nests
Exclusive ulterior vibes rest...

Barren luster
cotton breeze
  phosphorescence
    misty seas

Lucid splendor
breathing calm
  Sunday apex
    sweaty palm

Arid heart
wet disease
  fallen hard
    slight increase

Callous taste
naked steam
  ever beating
    broken seam

Kindle existence
blank fixation
  torrid matter
    last temptation...

Sky tinged with phosphorescence
  Moon pale, convalescent
    Incandescent lunar crescent

Adolescent lips meet in acquiescence
  Hopes blaze, steamy flourescence
    Hush! thy quiescent quintessence

Shy effervescence, her backdrop incalescence
  Tumescence lurks too, fraught essence
    In Love's Mirror of Evanescence...

sacred life…
mortal as a seashell
cradled and designed by divine hands

swept by tides
over the waves of chance
phosphorescence under tender skies

hidden souls
within a spiral core
with lore of an ocean at thy breast

soft landings
upon the shoals of time
'till nestled in the palm of God’s hand

Swirls of light
Enveloped the sails
On a quiet starlit night
 
A captain, on the deck
A precious cargo to keep
Phosphorescence trails
Iluminating the deep
 
Lanterns on the masts and spars
Reassuring touch of timber
Flap of sails
The navigation by the stars
 
On the sea
Lit by a moon
and star bright
Carrying precious things
A ships' captain
On the deck at night...

Sunshine
Radiance brightness
Suns light rays
Natural light sparkle bright
Solar

Daylight                                          
Sunshine brightness                         
Gleaming phosphorescence                   
Luminance coruscation rays              
  Vivid
