Short Raves Poems

New fling
Lust clings

He shaves
She raves

He aches
She fakes

He veers
She sneers

He winks
She shrinks...

Gravitational waves
could well be in protest to Trumpian raves
galactic observers
will react as they must to incendiary fervors....

Raining cats and dogs 
You hear their animal raves
Then there's  our sun
Colorful  sounds cats meow
Rainbow  escapades,  parade...

Shouts, Yells, Screams, Rants, Raves
Bullhorn-magnified Bombast
"Decapitate him!"
Why don't the police stop it?
What happened to enforcement?...

Social media rants and raves
   a lot like the letters of Scrabble
The end result, rather the same
   ~ scattered like those who built Babble*

Any soulful song
of slow grown Earth
must incarnate roundly replicating
softly supplicating
deftly duplicating
mindfully non-masturbating
religiously regenerating

Wealthy climatic waves
of healthy EarthCulture
raves....

Pumpkin winds

Your amber-umber eyes, penetrate me
as saffron sun sets on faces, ashen
Your suspicious mind raves with jealousy
as pumpkin winds chill our summers passion

Splashing in invigorating beads of perspiration
Blasphemous pouting over grievances, neigh retirement
Itchy foaming kiss, yoked in tumult, dispersed in action 
Catapulting inertia when ravishing tarry
While drenched, unquenched thirst raves belly of aqua's mine...

The Smith's marriage is no longer viable
Their political leanings are irreconcilable
She raves: Trump I dismiss!
He rants: Biden-kiss this!
Yet their love of country remains undeniable

Morose, mellow, and mysterious, my mind has made
An alliteration accented around random assets
Of ranting, riveting raves renewed
To try and tackle tiring thoughts 
Whilst wanting with wonder to withhold worn-out wittiness
Which can kind of, if continued, come out quite corny...

Fragrance night, spicy
Breeze tangoes near tomorrow
to green world stage raves
Howling blues stir lilac dark
Starlight, whistling in the park

Clouds keep on drifting
in times of vanishing moon
It's nature's wild dance
a sultry summer tango
when super moon turns mango...

Saffron sun


Your amber-umber eyes, penetrate me
as saffron sun sets on faces, ashen
Your suspicious mind raves with jealousy
as pumpkin winds chill our summers passion

Nature is at its best unleashed 
 beneath the ever changing skies
 when animal and season weds
 it delivers the season's high; 
 As the leaves share their color raves 
 autumn shares her bountifulness 
 and the squirrel gathers quick her craves 
 before winter's, buffering harness.

Spread your wings, dear child, and fly
to where the green sea meets blue sky;
run on the crests of gentle waves
and grab the sunlight as it raves
about the brightness of the day;
float with the sea gulls as they sway
upon the friendly winds, and dive
with playful dolphins as they jive
in the cool waters of the bay....

Gone,
But here,
 Wrong,
And somehow right,
I take the Blame,
This time,
Cause you always win the fight,
I'm the one insane,
Im the one thats craze,
Im the one that rants and raves,
And you never did nothing,
Came out Perfect,
Smelling better than a Rose,
But somehow I still Love you,
More than anyone should know....

A plane devoid of noises
Within a darkened cave
No words of consolation
Assuage the rants and raves

Awareness unattended
Has obfuscated will
But fluid through the fingers
Puts ink into the quill

She roars across forever
Four corners of the earth
The Alabama legend
Has made their voices heard...

Football

A new dawn has come
He showers and puts on his lucky tee
Sits and waits in his lounge chair
Times has come
He kicks and runs 
Catches and tackles 
His blood pressure goes up 
All from his recliner chair
He cheers and howlers
Rants and raves 
Dammit!! 
Yes!!

Sounds of the ocean
Waves in your mind
Rounds of lost emotion
Raves that cuts and bind

Bounds of the blue ocean
Shaves your deep mind
Mounds of tranquil notion
Saves your lost mind

Ocean in you
Mind in the wilderness
Ark of the deep sea
Fathom at its vastness

Ocean in you
Sails in the Neverworld
Depths of you
Fairyland of the unending world...

My son got a gift from his buddy,
A book which is sure to get raves.
He was thrilled ‘cause he knew
That the lead of U2
Was the author and one of his faves.

But the best part was quite unexpected – 
An autograph written inside,
With no question in mind
Of the fact it was signed
By the writer – it was Bono-fide!

*thanks to my husband for the punchline...

noticing mood oscillation
diminishes not elation
being but rise and fall of waves
with pain and joy, heart’s flirtation

in staid stillness, ego behaves
no longer of dark desires raves
we are the witness, in bliss mode
love the sole cure, that always saves

oh hermit, carry not fear’s load
in cave of heart is God’s abode
there’s no door; we’re always welcome
His love and light, here now download...

Weather looked upon not contemplating
Shores forgot, wisped away to beaches anew
This place that place, sea of blue
Set close not too far
voices in the wind here we are
Rods set tall and straight here it is 
we will wait
Lines tightened, rods a bent
fresh bait with old scent
Slicks rolling in crests of waves
Just beyond a bubbling fish raves
Set the hook reel the line
Buddies of fish it's dinnertime...

A nearby restaurant appears to be great.
For dinner, there is usually a long wait.
So many customers think the food is fabulous.
Are there this many people gullible and oblivious?
A truck arrives during early business days.
It leaves a big delivery of frozen entrees.
A culinary delight drawing a patron’s raves,
is actually coming out of microwaves.
That is the truth about what the people extol.
It is all done because of quality control....

Oh I am a little metaphor
I love to play a word,
today I am a fortress on 
Tuesday I’m a bird	

On Wednesday I’m a simile
cos I’m like a train, storming
into history,to  play this wordy game

On Thursday’s I push the boat out,
ploughing through the waves, then
Fridays I’m like a scimitar, slicing 
through the raves

And if you catch me weekend,  I 
won’t hold a grudge, just take me
as you find me,  wink, wink,
nudge, nudge, nudge....

As if floating thru a powdered sugar mist,
Luna's sweet vibration,a confectioners kiss.....
moulding exquisite layers of soma's bliss,
remiss nought experience which reminisce....

Far away dreams lit upon starlight waves,
only to be realized within life stream raves
desire of the beauty in which it gave,
moments which engender,then tenderly enslave.....

Lost temporarily enchanted by it's spell,
full moon swoons as it rises and swells.........
