A good name is more desirable than great riches;
to be esteemed is better than silver or gold.

Love is the cacophony of life,
the stillness of your lover’s breath in sleep,
the boa constrictor hug of a grandchild,
and the outstretched arms of Christ.

whistle
in the breeze
love melts in a kiss
blown with the ocean sand
sun glorifies the moment
“deep love sets forever to be”

Verse
I had a summer job at sea
The captain, the dog and wee me
A gill net set boat
And away we float
The salmon all caught with much glee
Most mornings on deck I would be
To watch the sunrise and night flee
My dog I must gloat
Could sing a high note
And he gave our fishes for free

Queen of Caterpillars was nearly finished assigning butterflies
She did not need a consensus, but she wanted them to be happy
They were tossed into the winds according to placements.
Scattered to the farthest curves of the globe in record numbers
This might be your prettiest batch yet, her mother told her.
Queen of Caterpillars had to stifle a laugh.
Her mother said this every single season.
And she was not wrong.

Dear Karen, there’s something I need:
I’ve got you a poem to read.
A deficit in one’s attention
is probably best left unmentioned.
If boring writes get you distracted,
my outcome’s adversely impacted.
For when the dear reader is addled,
strong placements just up and skedaddle.
Before you’ve a chance to retort,
just know that I’m keeping it short.
Disorder escapes its confines
perusing these final two lines!

I promulgate against all odds,
To let go indoubts my mind
Profusely with no room to spare.
The image retracts the greater
Evil that lures deep with~in the
Back walls of my soul;and itches
poisonous ivy under my skin,
which starves my hunger for
you.
Are you ready to excape all necessary
Placements to give eachother a special
treatment; of exotic tendiousy's if you dare...
To share the double pleasure... with me; and
only me.

Hi. First, I would like to thank poets for entering my Love Poem contest.
My note is:
I have received some good poems that are not within the rules of length required. Either they are too short or too long. I am just giving the opportunity for those who have entered to re-check their poems and edit their poems if necessary to fit the guidelines. Otherwise, they will not be considered for placements.
Thank you,
Heidi

I do not know?
in mid flight so the birds in autumns fly
ever so darken their eyes lighten seeking skies
twilight the beaten path wings move, they flap
horizontal placements heavens gap
in mid flight so the birds in autumns fly
ever so darken their eyes lighten seeking skies
lift light flight those small, pigeons, robins, and sparrows fly
Mid flight autumn birds so fly heaven's skies

Light Verse
In the heart of bustling city,
It majestically sprawls across,
Mesmerising and gorgeous,
Bounded by pristine stone walls.
Awash with memories, I recall
Nights slogged until dawn,
Gearing up for exams and events
And placements to top it all.
Lived a dream with friends for life,
On these hallowed lands,
Rightfully the 'place to be', now and
Even in the years to come!

THE GHOST AND MRS. MUIR
The lighthouse beacon where a captain lives
alongside the sea he loves. The ghost thrives —
With relish he scares,
The ugly not fair,
Falls madly in love when widow arrives.
With gruff bearded spirit by candlelight,
Mrs. Muir taps on type paper to write
Of his time at sea.
He sells it all free.
The editor is awed by her ghost write.

Potpourri starship jetting through the black hole
In your eyes sparkle the retina jaded surprise
Dew drops droughts in ranges filled with cactus flowers
Glaciers frost environmental placements fold
Pilgrims travel journeys through intergalactic sunrises
Escaping the colonies complicated municipal towers
~
Jet setting the millionaires are traveling through space
Flying first class in this new space race
