Short Riffles Poems

How do the rainbow’s riffles roam
in the sky that’s black…beautiful

Scenes of the soul (Title)

Force and faces, sky, soil and seas;
Sights and sounds… spirits, as my sense sees...

On the tips of our leaves, a slight touch
a whisper to make us all blush
as it riffles our tresses
with icy caresses
our limbs going stiff
as we submit 
to Autumn’s
red faced
pall.

pages of a book
printed, written in all fonts
characters, small or bold, tweet
stories of the world 
sketches, images of sorts
facades of all, not cajoles

phases of a book
happy faces on each book
tinged in satin or white trim
riffles of a book
like thumbs skimming on waters
waters of life on pages...

saffron sun flames sky
melted gold joins blue riffles -
sunset swims to shore

The stars are brite

    The stripes are shinny

    The ground is rough

     Thier riffles are noisy

     The buildings are fallen down

      The tankers are in control

      The ships are on target

      The planes are flying low

      Looking forward of returning home

      with loving hearts.

Riffles, catching debris as it passes. 
Holding on to that which seems small
Only to be dislodged when bigger comes

Tiny and precious can dwell deep down
Only to be washed out by a flood
Disrupting patterns disrupting patterns

Then calm ensues, new patterns emerge
That which was hidden emerges
But with that a new path is forged

A new stream to wash away
Make a new place for settlement
And once again the life path flows...

Luminesence 
besprinkles fantasies
on liquid love
surrounding us.
Riding the ebb and flow,
we rock
we lull,
we ripple
in the reverberations 
of our aphrodisia.
Salty breezes
teases our excitement
as we salute Venus
with sexual gifts.
Moonlight waltzes scintillant riffles
across the glass-sea surface
to the bateau we sail;
as we dance, 
rumba romance
in rhythmic swells,
on our Little Piece of Heaven.

<                         O ye how the west has gone won
                           now wipe those trails of tears my son
                           dance the ring of fire for fun
                           speak and learn native ways
                           learn not to speak with riffles gun
                           rustle bacon beans  Hey !

"a featured poem in THE LANGUAGE OF LONELY SHADOWS ANTHOLOGY BY POET MISHECK Y KACHISUZI" 


THE UNHEARD

A forgotten melody
Blows through the windows of pain
Tears fall, doubts remain
A sorrowful refrain
War’s dark shadows looms near
Massacres, hopes laid low in fear
Innocent lives lost, memories scarred
Forever changed, hearts marred
Leaving loss, heartbreak displayed
Riffles silence smiles
Blood soaked in exchanging gunshots
Forever battles, in tragic miles...
