Oh Great Silent One, where fore art thou
Visiting our Queen or trimming thy brows
Important things first
Dost thou possess a royal thirst 
Thou didst reiterate, thou ain't a loyalist no how!

(Shakespeare ALMOST!)...

to love a woman
lean in when she smiles
show her you care
take her hand


listen to her
do not suggest
do not take over
do not try to fix

nod your head
reiterate what she is saying
pay attention
pretend she is your goddess
and she will be...

Two hearts intertwined, yet divided by time. 
If I could, I would take both our hearts hold them together as they beat forever.... 
watch as they mate, watch as they inflate, pulsate... 
one word could never reiterate the state of what I would love to create...

We’re not cool
We’re in love.
We’re not looking for where we belong
We are free

We’re everything there is
To each other
There isn’t another
I’d want as my lover

You’re totally great
And my best mate
Still let’s be clear
And reiterate

We’re not cool
We’re in love....

please remember before submitting
cos if you don't and your rules omitting
i'll reiterate, your haiku won't reach fruition
cos I won't accept your contribution!...

Room With a View

A room with a view of the sea
Where waves roll in with the breeze;
With sunlight invading the place,
Casting shadows of ambivalent grey.

The vista one sees is hard to reiterate
When distance and time co-operate;
In a shrinking world out there in space
To the cataclysm at the edge of the bay....

For some, it's not easy getting old...
so many mistakes along the way
can cause anyone's spirit to fold...
the path of the past cannot be changed,
when at long last the truth is told !
Those years are gone-there's no turning back !
There is no silver-there is no gold !
So at this point, I reiterate,
it's not always easy getting old !...

Come forth darling
Take your shoes off 
Allow me to rub your feet 
Letting me pray 
Pray for us
I'll place your bare feet in the Nile 
Dipping them in the Euphrates River 
Come let's embracing together
 in front of heaven's gate
 I reiterate 
Come come forth my darling
Walking on Holy Grounds
Barefoot in all...

Help me smother this irritation ~ with lines and punctuations ~ 

Feed me pronouns ~ to drown incompetent sounds ~

Nouns to block inevitable frowns ~ verbs to calm nerves ~

Synonyms to perpetuate and penetrate minds ~ antonyms to reiterate in rhyme~

Give me a vocabulary of words to express my perturb ~ why must people be so absurd

Lay...

My friend always says “we need to get together soon”
She is a phone friend.
I remind her that I am not going anywhere unless it is forty degrees.
I am an asthmatic.
Cold air triggers my respiratory infection and pneumonia.
I reiterate this twice during this phone call.
“It’ll be forty degrees tomorrow,” she says.
My pause does not last two seconds.
“I don’t want to,” I reply....

Let's repeat our first dance....
Let's rebirth our forever promises....
Let's replay our sweet memories....
Symbols of red roses from you to me....
Flowers in my art to you as symbols of....
our love come true....
Let's reiterate our lovely vows for all time....
and eternity....
So, our love never becomes redundant....
Let's redeem our sweet love now....
Our red river of red roses rises and returns....
Our requited love.......

I have trained my whole adulthood for the challenge of this day. 
The toil and sweat and sacrifice, the monotony of drill, 
All those years of manning up to my ambition.
I have wrestled the beast and disciplined my will.
I mean to vanquish my opponent for the golden prize
I'll enter the ring and trust my luck to fate.
I have trained my whole adulthood for the challenge of this day. 
When I rise again come dawn, I will reiterate....

He has a musical instrument
it plays in his head.

Oft it quack's like an oboe,
oft it moo's like a bassoon;
it's also a violin
dipped into darkness.

When he writes, infant angels
wail, demons bleat like lost lambs.
Orchestrations and variation
upon a common theme reiterate
and reply.
Each instrument
a different note on his piano.

Yes, he has a piano
it thumps, it drums,
sometimes it mews
like a gull riding a storm....

I find inspiration in the rain
Soul-searching while it withers away my tears 
There’s no inspiration greater than that of the rain

Small droplets on my windowpane
Slowly caress away my pain
I listen closely to the melody it makes 
As it hits my terrain 
I find inspiration in the rain 

soupçon droplets on my skin…
Lu Xun rhymes begin to reiterate, as it wanes my heavy heart away 
There is no inspiration greater than that of the rain...

Lost lust, shall I call this
Your fears sanctified
Not knowing how forlorn we could be
Nonchalant a mind casted beautifully 

Cursed cause should i be, 
In this darkness 'ld I heal, feel the surge.
Wonder&deny me but wish me not hades
Cos asides we there 'll be no better 

Than me who quarantined your fear

Compare to the rest, my good I see not hence 
Who for your love away they equally crept 
Let's reiterate and make the past our first...

An axiom I heard once states:
If you always do
What you've always done,
Then you'll always get
What you always got.

To paraphrase and reiterate:
What's worse,
Waking up one morning
And realizing you're not
What you hoped you'd be,
Or realizing you still are
What you always were?

Tack on this wisdom to round out the plot:
You can only do the best you can,
So remember as you start each day,
Tomorrow hasn't happened yet,
And yesterday is best forgot....

Thoughts creating an abyss
The mind disappears quick 
A world so sinister 
It’s difficult to fix 
Reiterate the lyrics 
Fears are what you steer with
Tears stream down this face 
Over the years, it tends to create the wrong taste 
A face you can’t fake
Brain waves receiving too late 
Accept the fate 
It’s business for the abyss 
Wished it’d miss 
Troublesome hearts don’t possess grip 
It’s such a risk to ditch 
But we all know it’s the way it goes and life’s a bitch...
