I have frequently wondered about snow
When it melts, where does it go
Yet my ponderings too oft lead to pollutions
Preceding hurried late-night ablutions
Galactic and fleeting
Galvanic completing
Gone, never repeating
Geologic receding
Glowing and preceding
Glyphs that they were reading
Gnosis they were leading
To me Thee, ‘is a sunder,
proped to one begging display
of teeming vigilance . . . what
to my Ire duth I believe?
Sweet sweet Melody preceding
me, laughter before me, thoughtlessly . . .
Carefree Notions of thee
pondering . . .
The attitude towards Muslims by the majority in my country
is the same which was promulgated against the Jews preceding nazi Germany.
They who do not learn from history
are destined to repeat it assuredly
and history is repeating itself presently.
August were the moments we partook
During the preceding night
My eyes dissolved into cacophonies
Of everlasting rivulets
Fate never before
Had glistened so vividly
The beauteous exchange
‘twas the spate of arias betwixt us
Gradually the nexus continued to cleave
Even sleeping
an aura
burns in rest
slow inhalations
felt warming blood
nearness overwhelms
wicked sensed eyes open
universes traveling
discovered secrets
lay bare
wonderment known
blazed awareness
preceding sleep
stealing my heart away
to dream
before
earlier, past
backing, preceding, affirming,
aforehand, behind , beyond, future,
succeeding, following, resulting,

Where to be found?
Lost world where Love abounds,
Adult friendly cities,
Only smiles for all, prithee,
Like the Garden of Eden,
Our Planet preceding,
After Anarchy
and bigotry,
Our visions shall achieve,
Our human dreams,
A lost world found,
Where Love and Peace abound.......
The very first rapper preceded
Ice-T by aeons and eons
Though his rap-a-tap-tap
never earned him lights in neon
Humbly plying his trade in forests far
from billionaire rapper stars
The woodpecker taps out his tune on trees
~ at times nearby, have a look-see
Whilst seated upon the commode,
An astronomer, Johann Elert Bode
Found a celestial law
Which had nary a flaw
Which he phrased in the form of an ode.
Each planet you see is removed from the sun
By a distance twice farther than the preceding one
Not a half, I lament
Not three hundred percent
But just twice! (Now isn't this fun?)

Christmas Day is quiet –
Traffic’s light and stores are shuttered.
All the hype preceding it
Has fizzled out and puttered.
Families turn inward
And the streets are near deserted.
Temptations from the outside world
Are easily averted.
If you took all the Sundays
And you rolled them in a ball,
They might finally rival Christmas –
It’s the quietest of all.
Blurred words billowing like smoke,
Coals raging still red
From preceding night’s campfire.
I try, put them in proper place
In vain as I get scorched
And the scream that comes out--
A lightning thunder strike…
That, that is the poem
I’m pregnant with,
So near birth and still so far.

You'd inspire a fanciful thread for a poem,
You are analogous to each discrete totem,
And, precisely, like every preceding being,
You are quirky; no other soul is apt to tying,
You become entangled in the customary,
And, an emphasis entails the precursory.

full of embraces
I was a hug and you a cover
Preceding and proceeding a squeeze
Shouldering
Body temperature exploding
Rising temps
Incorporate consists
Lust rails relentless
I crave inducement, yet in containment
We unlock our embracement
Nothing but our eyes eye are spurning
Must stop burnings

Preceding Today
By: Inkling Al'Kallio ??™?
Like Jack and Rose,
we glow before the tide aroused.
All those promises we grew,
withered with no one to water,
and out the window they goes.
Our Hearts are shattered glasses,
took the blue app to fake bloom.
Computing whose happy the most after the row .
But soon we'll press the reset button and blaze,
seeking another heart to break.
Limerick: Once a mincing Mrs. from Mississippi
Once a mincing Mrs. from Mississippi*
Went to a bank for a fiddle-d-dee
But her girdle got stuck
And the “SS” came unstuck
That’s why Missis ends as a double P..
*No aspersions cast on Mississippians here;
the term refers to the Paleozoic era in North America,
following the Devonian and preceding the Pennsylvanian,
of course.

To begin with
Solidity is a mental illusion
The world always had its holes in it
We have no end, only confusion
Change always is indeterminate
O, but where did we begin again
Don't you see
The beginning was just the effect
Of the preceding cause
So now you agree we met before
That was tomorrow
But I cannot remember what you will be
Memory has a hole in it
And the pass is falling out
Like stars, one by one.
A gentle sway
Amidst two pines
Mid summer day
One may find
A Georgia peach
About “yay” tall
Low key screech
Preventing fall
Canopied shade
From layered leaves
Pigtail braids
Adorning trees
Whistling winds
Promote the sway
That soothe her limbs
Wide awake
A humming sound
Could be heard
Before she’s found
Preceding words
Once disturbed
The magic fades
There are no words
To recreate
A tranquil, Autumn stroll
Parched Northern air
The day would soon unfold
The preceding day’s heir
A humble October chill
Tickles nature’s spine
A predictable daily twill
A tale as old as time
An array of colored trees
Umbrella the path beneath
Framing the dance of leaves
As Mother Nature breathes
Home, is soon in focus
As their walk comes to an end
They blow a gentle kiss
In hopes they meet again
Intervals
Time
lapsing
repeating
a breathing space
respite from preceding activity.
An interlude that accentuates breaks
and goings on
preceding
silent
gaps.
Thus,
rending
beautiful
flowing music
enlivening auditory delight.
Giving patrons harmonious pleasure,
happiness born
through music
or words

Poetic form: Quadruple Tetractys
Porcelain peacocks strut in starlit shower,
drifting as clouds on an emerald lawn.
Black Narcissus spindles in oxblood flower
in teeming beds before the coming dawn
of floating white as night would then be gone,
its smoky quills of porcupines receding
to a memory as effervescing
rays of morning glow would begin, preceding
butter sun with cumulus as dressing
in an azure sky and daylight's blessing.
Cool overnight rains, bear a fresh burst of spring,
Peach and pink hues grace gardens, youthful playing!
Pale lemony sunshine, at warmth's golden beginning,
And everywhere you roam, there's a novel happening.
Pink butterflies in circles, a bronzed loop de loop,
And masses of cherry blossoms, preceding red fruit.
The grass so green, pearl dewdrops gone one by one,
Like the shadows that flee, in feverish awe of the sun!
Burst into that tight cleavage
In search of a dept non had reached before,
In a darkness so sweet and embracing
Pumped up, with vigor the thrusting continues
An endless wave of moans drowns the background
Yes! Id hit edges and probably bruise
Yet I persist
A lingering joy awaits in accomplishment.
In what seemed like seconds of eternity
I arrive, a boyish smile preceding
An arrival met with utmostly great enduring pleasure.
a battered soul
forced to choose
between the way
dark paths obtuse
Accept defeat
no strain to bare
except the pain
is nothing fair?
why must I hurt
while others live
my heart has ridden
your callous shiv
the path I follow
seems dim at first
but light preceding
unrivaled thirst
step into swamp of sorrows
blight
swimming through agony
with the temptation to
end the suffering
end my suffering
and drown in sorrow
