ice coated fence posts

      punctuate the snowy trail…

          frosty whiffs of breath

If,stops,colons comma make sense- 
                                                   sounds become your cadence

inspired by the words of the duchess in Alice in Wonderland

About Nothing Really

Natural endings are destiny.
Some curtain closing situations punctuate 
themselves. Wether totally unexpected 
or well planned 
the unexpected mince minutes into
seconds, and then

The Glue

The world your editor,
each season your pen

Heartache your publisher,
verse to amend

Days left to punctuate,
nights misconstrued

Memory the binding
—time as the glue

Soggy Tease Shirt Contest

It was easy to see who had the most eyes
Attached to her chest so abundantly sized
In this contest
She had the best
She quite easily garnered the... booby prize

Premium Member Stay Salty

Violently mimic the wind,
stay salty yet flow like water;
With an attitude stay thick skinned,
violently mimic the wind;
Keep poetry neat and well penned,
then punctuate it to slaughter;
Violently mimic the wind,
stay salty yet flow like water.

Premium Member First Draft

A rough idea 
invades brain waves.
Words flow. A pen glides, 
line after line across the page.

Anticipation, hope rings. 
It grows, lives, sings.

Evaluate, punctuate
strike out, insert
distill, re-frame
copy, finis.

read aloud . . . scrap.

I Was, I Am

I was BORN.
I was WELL-READ.
I was POLITICALLY FATED.

I was HISTORICALLY ENTERTAINED.
I was PHYSICALLY RESTRAINED.
I was BIOLOGICALLY STAINED.

I am my VARIOUS WRITINGS.
I am my SPOKEN WORDS.
I am my SILENT THOUGHTS.

I am ORGANIZED.
I am ARTICULATE.
I am PUNCTUATE.
I am GRAMMATICAL.

I am SELF LEARNING.

Spot On, Harry

Harry Styles from One Direction has corrected a fan's punctuation...

Harry Styles is really great
He knows how to punctuate 
And he learnt to spell at school
Harry, man, you're really cool  
Better read than Harry Potter 
A rarer breed, a comma spotter
Tell us, Harry, in your pop 
What’s the point of a full stop?

Premium Member Hurts

Your saline tears
Punctuate sad cheer


You look so sad
A void dooms mad


Truth flings new pain
Words fail again


Sad floral tint
Footsteps crush mint


Hurts bring odd gain
It's only pain


Who sings the blues?
Yes, is that you?


Hurts help you grow
That much I know

Premium Member Consolation

When restless suns have cast their final ray
Upon this space of ground that I've possessed
And hymns of sorrow punctuate the day
This soul of mine shall have its lasting rest.
Then tongue shall once again of briefness speak
Life's swift journey once again reviewed,
That cause which hastens anxious men to seek
Will lead another man to faith endued.

Listen and heed the message grand:
Faith answers need with love dear friend.


Listen and know to find the way:
Peace ever shows true light each day.


Listen and feel how love frames truth;
Joy can now heal with living proof.


Listen and greet each moment here:
Bitter or sweet punctuate good cheer.

Premium Member A Frolic For Children and Puppies

Rolling bodies, 
Grass stained jeans
And shouts, yips, and nips
Punctuate the air
As the child and puppy
Roll in the grass of the yard.
Squirt gun fights,
An unintentional bath,
Painted with frivolity
and water as the
Sound of laughter
And playful taunts,
Fill the air around 
The children who chase
And play oblivious
To the invisible moat
That repels the perils
Outside the yard.

Introspectacle

My head ignites
like the Hindenburg
with rage-drenched doubt
while fighting the urge
to despise the light
of harmony I purge.

Punch-drunk and wheezy
in my mirrorbox maze,
I hot-box with demons
each wearing my face
determined with egos
defiant against grace.

Such balanced pairings
provoke familiar dances
with jabs and aches to spare
until atoms stack on command
to punctuate orders
of self's brutal demand.

Chemistry

In twilight of pain
I blink for a dot
to punctuate the intelligence. 

My incoherence brings the unseen.
I stay at a vowel
to see the truth.

Immenseness versus depth,
in shoals of turbulent life.
Where do I hide my vessel ?

A lure of the exotic death
does not bring the peach color
to reveal the light on earth.

An inverted blankness prints
the words of green bruises, 
where the falls meet.

Fortunes of a Fool

It's too late, she's gone She packed her love and left me Alone with just her tears To punctuate the hurt Sacred vows were shattered A trusting heart betrayed Remnants of my promises Torn, discarded Silence magnifies my pain Deceit my one companion Mocked by my indiscretion Immersed in despair It's too late, she's gone She packed her love and left me And my only treasures are The fortunes of a fool

Hostile About My Poetry Style

Even though I am now over 7,000
poems I still am having a problem.

Hostile About My Poetry Style

Other poets seem to have become hostile,
About each way my poems I will compile;
Way I punctuate,
A terrible fate,
And many others complain about my style.

Spring outside and things started greening,
And St. Patrick's day is what I am meaning;
Blood thin,
Did not win;
Over towards lucky Irish like to be leaning.

Dread Hymns

On these minstrel travels
sanity unravels
while squinting through arrays,
melting from the notion
that love shares brave potion
to set free souls ablaze.

Calliope dirges
punctuate these urges
with each body that drops
along this hallowed ground
on orders from those crowned
lords of enduring props.

Vanquished souls shall arise
to lift lies from the guise
righting flagrant error
since liberty calls out
to shred all sense of doubt:
candor is not terror.
