You cannot hold Winter
Children weep for acorns
and their plummets of blackcurrants
They have lost their Midas Touch
Urban foraging is bygone pride

The meteoroid
Circumvents the void
'Til captured by the atmosphere
It then plummets toward the Earth
With glowing core
As a meteor
But after a dazzling fiery flight
On impact
is a meteorite

Winter's Friday afternoon
The Sabbath comes in so soon
The sun, if there be one
fairly plummets down
Already's appeared the moon
~ humming a Sabbath tune

alabaster clouds
morph into ashen grey smoke
acid rain plummets
a grieving heart breaks in two
drowning within its own flood
angel of deaths scythe
shows not an ounce of mercy
reaps a twin flames love

"What is the time?"
The blue coloured sleeve
Plummets to the elbow,
And the precious metal strips
Aiming for numerical notes
Catching in his
Reddened eyes,
Swollen to perplexity
Registers;
"Sorry. I've lost track of it."

silver fishes just 'neath the lake's surface,
glisten like tails of watery comets;
oh, but one of them shall so soon perish
as, noiseless, a blue kingfisher plummets!

Hear the soft pitter patter dancing off the roof?
A cleansing rain plummets the drain, offering
up its truth..
It sloshes streets and people's feet as it
clears the atmosphere.
Umbrellas swoosh, windshield wipers whoosh,
and life is slower here..

Sultry sweetness
Caught on a paper cloud
As a wet surface
Oozes with harmonious reflection
And while that letter
Speaking of daring devotion
And intrepid infatuation
Plummets to the saturated soil
The words slip off the paper
Like tears from her cheek

from the sky plummets
a feathery blur with razor talons
and cruel, crooked beak..
slays a serpentine shadow
in the grass, then flies off to feed
eaglets nestled at the peak.

I am an empty shell
Hold me to your ear
Can you hear the soothing sound of waves lapping on a deserted, tropical beach?
NO!!
All that you can hear is a cry for help, as my soul plummets, screaming towards the black abyss
Say a prayer for this one, and all the empty shells in the world

It Lifts, Defies Gravity
That great curving line
made of countless droplets
in shades of aquamarine
to showers of foaming white
it creates an opening
a cave where light can spin
then plummets down again
its passion has been spent
rolling gently to the shore
tumbling sand and shells
small remnant lives
then going back for more.

a mouse frolics in the sunny meadow,
'neath the grass slithers a snaky shadow.
a short smothered squeak, a muffled stuggling,
flowers flirt with the breeze with nary an inkling.
a feathery blur plummets from the sky
with razor-sharp talons and a cruel cry,
rips the serpent with its cold, crooked beak,
then flies off to feed its young nestled at the peak !

all repetition is intentional
"when"
when life seems darkening
when stumbles knock on doors
let the butterflies surround
when humpty dumpty plummets
when chaos shadows sun and moon
let their illumination through
when rain overflows
when cold remains
inside panes will blanket
remember to breathe
when faced with it all

How strikingly gray
as the Spring rain
plummets
to the ground
The green
and brown
all wet
yet
no glittering from
the Sun's wink
I walk
not skip today
and the train
slowly slips away
so drifts
her wave

Thor's hammer-strike sheds
bolts of jagged sparks;
as misty clouds weep,
and howling winds wail.
With thunderous booms
the seared air fragments;
skewing the night skies
with forks of lightning.
The heavens open;
and an outpouring
of torrential rain,
plummets to the ground.
Despite Nature's rage
and ferocity;
amidst the fury,
the Earth's thirst gets quenched.

Blank verse
Keys hit softly
Keys hit sadly
Yet it’s perfectly beautiful,
In every way.
It speaks of oppression
It speaks of war
Yet it’s still beautiful
In every way.
It paints stunning images of death
It paints stunning images of violence
And still it is beautiful in every way
Until…………
Until realities key is hit just perfectly.
And everything that was once beautiful,
Plummets into woe.

Sometimes life can seem like quicksand.
Without the band.
It is a journey unplanned.
Uncharted the road
Struggling without direction.
Loses all protection.
It plummets one in deep reflection.
Down to the bottom.
From decades ago a hand reaches out.
Help is there no doubt.
Hope inspires your joy to shout.
Love rescues!

I bid keeping my mind off the known calamity
A similar item year ago almost took my soul from me
It was only chump change, it didn't really matter
Pushing away the notions of the hearts that it would shatter
Another bidder and my confidence plummets
When suddenly last call blares out like trumpets
My demise in the form of a contract
Is swore and sealed by a pen that retracts

My heart plummets as torrents of rain
Beat against my foggy window
Pummeling the glass as I
Stare at the phone
You said you'd call and now it's been
Days since you said good-bye
Leaving me to pine away
The long hard hours
Is your imprint on somebody's sheets
Your sights on someone new?
You're breaking my heart
Just don't do it
I gaze at the walls as they close in
With each hour you disappear
From my heart and soul
Farewell my love

I exit the dragon's mouth,
still puffing smoke
after all these
purifying years;
round the corners
square as possible,
narrowly avoiding edges
where the earth
falls abruptly away
and the sea plummets
to terminal depth-
Sure, Columbus made it!
But in this new world
of terror, politically defined,
One must pause
(rethink the wet drive home)
wisely avoiding
the siren call
of neon signs-
slippery, paste voices
of abundance
and firm footing.

Thunder roars and lightning blazes across the sky
And it illuminates the eye of a man as he holds his wife’s hand
The rain plummets to earth and pummels a rooftop
Of a family home as the children laugh and play
The sky darkens a deep black and gray
While a couple lights candles for a romantic evening
And as the wild winds whirl faster
The end of the storm is near
As it goes more joy will come
As each walks outside to a starlight sky
And a peaceful moon rising high

I do not know?
when wind blows a gale
leaves pushed pulled tempest tossed
I see life fleetingly aloft and
gone in gasp and gust
when clocks chime and chip away at time
inevitable and intangibly present
it’s the fool’s errand to be angry at an hour
when cars zip like bullets
when plugs crackle into life
when scissors snap too close to skin
when fragile chick plummets from nest
death darts ahead of life
a promiscuous predator circling
circling even as you say you’re leaving
