Premium Member Larry the Lizard

Best described as lizard slime,
Larry was worst of all time.
	His big rheumy nose
	was red as a rose
And his eyes glowed green as lime!

Too Tired

Rheumy eyes
spoke
heavy thoughts
of 
sorrows multiplied

darkened heart
curtains drawn
hope expired inside

heavy grief
buckled knees
soul forgotten
silently
died
Form: Rhyme

Desires

My mind radiates,
A thousand thoughts
Of yearning, of love,
And some uncalled.
My only thought,
Thou shall see yonder,
In an elysium
Or in an orb.
O proper stuff!
Rheumy thoughts of thou, 
Shall live.
In odd-even,
On a reasonable shore.

In An Apartment Roomy But Gloomy

A man’s apartment is airily roomy
But wears he a face real gloomy …

Soon, I find out his eyes are rheumy 
And he thinks he got them through me!

Lousy Guy! My eyes for long not rheumy;
Two years now they to overseas flew me …

And with rheumy eyes in a shelter roomy
One should a reason find to be not gloomy,
Unless issues too has about one’s tummy 
Or bemoaning a perception as Dummy.

Premium Member Deep Loneliness

his sweet scent of mere love still lives on

I walk, hark nature's moving sounds 
carried softly through forest paths 
nostalgic scent of rheumy dew grounds.  
 
fleeting dappled somber fingers 
unclosing against vast horizon, cause
without orb so nimble lingers.  
 
braids of pain stifle mine madness
loves unavoidable perpetual wink; mine
pate bowed with cherishing sadness

Premium Member Another Wintry Day

It’s too cold, so, I cannot go outside and play Staring at a computer makes my eyes rheumy My muse, apparently, has nothing to say It’s too cold, so I cannot go outside and play, I can hardly wait for another sunshiny day I’m so tired of wintery days, dark and gloomy, It’s too cold, so I cannot go outside and play Staring at a computer makes my eyes rheumy.

Leaving

The tide is coming.

Rheumy eyes lost on the horizon. Misting, over half memories.

Vera Lynn keeping us firmly in the past. Time in the present ever shorter.

Flask piping hot, burnt lips. Lunch heartily eaten.

Talk of family long-gone and family non-existent. Half finished sentences.

Singing until hoarse, oblivious of time and place.

Home before dusk or enter a world of anxiety and confusion.

The tide is gone.

I shall miss Sundays.

Cherish Buried Fears

Mind is brimming with gloom and fears Waiting to be "heard" or "seen" through tears The burden of which rheumy eyes couldn't bear When cruel judgments reach the empty ears Coming from the mouth of impassive peers resulting in crushing poor souls for years By putting a leash on ever-ready tears We manage to hide and cherish our fears A fake smile is what the mouth often wears, all set to utter ceaseless "CHEERS"

In a Stroke

rent from the agony
past.

muscle mass made
from joy too.

hangs now deprived
form. Nerves dead.
Dead blood. Hard,
insoluble damns
capillary at
single 
stroke.

higher disfunction 
set on repeat
flickers behind
eyes bright
that do not bare looking

drooping red ring
rheumy. makes a
crust on the lost beauty

cheekbones once 
chalk hills
dressed with
apple trees

are now nursery for flakes
of unstoppable tears

'wipe your eyes old man'

If only you could.
