reddened clouds below
excited fresh stars peep through
clouds part ways slowly...

Leaves of reddened corpse
Fall on me like driftwood dies
When it leaves the sea...

STOIC

stoic doll display
with bright eyes and reddened cheeks:
quiescent lips

Spitting venomous words
Like sour milk leaving an unsuspecting mouth
A face contorted into an unrecognizable creature
Tears pour from reddened eyes
Entity of a woman gone mad...

A Passing Fury  

A summer storm is like the depths of sea
arisen from a reddened evil sky.
Atomic flash with bright intensity
the power spark which teases at the eye.

Rich, red and delicious
Reddened by a good mix 
Recipe not too much 
Reminds me of Mama
Refreshing with a drink
Rated well at far ends
Remembering days past

A bird cascades during every Fall gambling
hopeful idle journeys knowing long migrations
navigating over peacefully quiet reddened sunsets 
towering under very windy xanadu
yawning zest.....

Serpent-shaped streams of tears slithering down my reddened cheeks
As I silently cry out all of the feelings built up for weeks.
Quietly reflecting on how he's changed because of my critiques.

Poppy flower pops out in joy, even in this hot summer

I found your lips in it, hot like the summer - reddened in love

Monsoon is still far away, would you come to me with thunder storm

A Broken Mirror 
A Distorted Face 
A Shattered Heart 
A Clear Distaste 

A Fallen Tear 
A Reddened Eye 
A Downturned Mouth 
A Year Gone By 

A Loaded Gun 
A Finished Fear 
A Bloodied Wall 
A Broken Mirror...

Wearing her crown of dark cascades,
Her wooden staff with a flattened blade
Burying her secrets dark and deep
Of tri-tangos and bloody reaps
Adorned in shadows with reddened glaze,
All hail,
The Queen of Spades....

"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."...

blood drops
falling skyward
and down again
causing pillars of blood
and dirt of maimed reddened figures
scattered across the land
the bloodshed continues
on sides of good
and of evil
pillars of skyward bloodshed
form.

Laughter at its fair best
brings reddened eyes, shining tears, and snotty noses
beats the rest

Chuckle or snort
among the riot of roses 
report 

so laugh
none opposes
gaffe!

Laughter at its fair best
among the riot of roses
gaffe!...

A summer night
A room, a bed
A life-time of emotions
Beneath the covers
And mosquito net
Eating grapes
Reddened by the sun
Love-sweet and round
Cool rain, washes clean
And muddied pools scattered
Mingled with bitter-sweet tears
Shed afterward....

dab and strain
casting hues behind silhouette tree tendrils
pinks slide effortlessly into ambered oranges
clouds splice and span
in whispered wisps
straggles of reddened blacks
Tetris shapes cut the horizon shadows
and night holds its note
in frozen hurt...

The reddened riot of wine-rich sun
Spills over skies of afternoon,
And purpling-reds of the day now done
Splash!--then dissolve, so soon.

And sunset turns a violet grey
Mixing with twilight’s magic blur,
Revealing the fairy-shapes at play,
Listen!--to wings’ soft whir....

Finger tips gently
caress sensitive skin
reddened with tears.

Declarations spoken
freely to assuage the
drum beats of the heart.

Lips sweeping across
the sweated brow
refreshing timid voices.

Limbs gracefully entwined
clinging with fondness
to the center of life....

The reddened riot of the sun wine-rich 
Spills over skies of afternoon,
And done the purpling-reds of the day 
Splash!   So soon then they dissolve.

And sunset turns a violet grey
Mixing with twilight’s magic blur,
Revealing the playful fairy-shapes 
Listen!  To the whir of soft, soft wings....

What is this wondrous internet
That causes reddened cheeks of wet
As people leave I have not met
The hole in space is empty yet
As words are cast  and thrown to let
another lost and sober vet
Attain aplomb enough to get
A certain satisfaction set
To face the emptiness
We can't forget
Awaiting...

I will write for her clouds of color
Ellipses, reddened
to temper this cold!

I will write for her words of purple cirrus
and pink, dawns
we will walk in golden sunsets.

Behold yellow morning star
the heavenly peach
caught between Magnolia branches..

I will write the rain, the flame
and this poem for her!

freshly-mown grass smell
irritates sensitive nose 
violent sneezing

reddened itchy eyes
sign of allergies, indeed,
nasal congestion

wearing mask outdoors
reduce irritants from weeds
enjoy the fresh scent

Unwelcome advice
from your friendly lawn-mower
saves doctor's visit!

My women's a rump-roast
Potatoes her thighs
Ripe reddened carrots
for thinly sliced eyes

Onions for folly
that lobes ring on high
Radishes hatched up
for lovers to eye

Thin flowing gravy
for sexual roll
Brown oily colors
as taken for soul

Thoughts for a woman
as something to know
When crawling to get one
as Chef on the go...

inside if mind
no less of ledged, against
you bet, wild
that i didn't wink
sworn to soar over with oath
in torn battled threads
instill 
i'd fend 
often from wherever  

in between needles, break
findings the fiddlers wife
chins reddened and thoughts ill 
gotten white?
rotted harm
to joyfuls shoulder
i should find, myselfish poor...

To lie on the green grass
and to be able to see the sky,
the birls fly,
and the reddened leaves pass,
(as peaceful as everything is,
it all moves in slow motion,
but the day is over before you know it)
is to know that you were born
somewhere free
but at some degree
you eventually mourn
because in time
it will pass
like sheets in the wind....
