Grow the ancient boreal midnight mountain

Your appearance, beautiful gold in summer 
Your regalia, shimmering snow in winter 
You awakened Norea from her darkness 
Offer the moonlight

The wood in spring quietly awaits sunlight
Wake up, wake up insists mother nature
End your gentle slumbering, winter has gone
Show us your beauty

Wake oh laggard sun and anoint a freed age.
Wake the guff and lose all allegiance primal. 
Roar and rise angelic at man's evolving
endlessly joyful.

dancing icy underfoot crackle pathways
moonlight loves the feminine presence prescience
laughter singing prayerful chants of thank you

Strong and Patient, Distant but always ready
never lost in emotion Like my Mum was

Sapphic

Booze I love to take to forget about them
Pain and failure make me to feel dejected
right from time I hated to see oppression
       love is so treasured.

Springtime

Early Springtime actioning frantic flight path
Busy sparrows congregate nesting builders
Hedgerow rustling, twittering noises concur
Heralding new life

What Freedom

Grant me freedom, freedom to be what I choose
Do what does not injure the lives of others
Have what I create or exchange not plunder
Not free lunch title

Steadfast

Waiting only forces the old wounds open - 
suffer, silent, pray that the guards will falter,
standing vigilant at mistrusting doorways;
ego, their master.

Premium Member Sapphic Stanza

Sapphic works are hard for a novice writer.
Tricky is the fact of the meter changes.
Stress or non it can but confuse the reader.
Writhes here  my sapphic.

Premium Member Late January

Budding, preening tendrils in winter sunshine
Flora grasping, creeping from terra firma
Standing breathless, dawn is a sapphire calyx 
Hope springs eternal

Beauty of Nature : Alliteration

Gazelles grazing gaily on golden green grass
Glaciers glittering gold like gleaming glass
Gardens glowing with Gulmohur and Gold stars
Golden gifts of God.

Living Ocean

Shining through the light on the water gleaming
Golden jewelry sparkles like diamonds cresting
Waves o’er waves of tapestry woven, breathing
Ocean is living

Sabbat

Chanting witches stirring the magic potion,
Cackling, dancing, spinning and wildly leaping,
Naked, frenzied, writhing and fortune telling:
Night of the Sabbat.

Kiss of stillness releases bliss pheromones,
inking presence with scent of rainbow’s love hues,
sacred ash and sandalwood, teleporting …
   soul to nirvana.

Seems Craig’s got a contest again;
I’m finding out with much chagrin 
my stanzas in sapphic
are jammed up in traffic.
I’ll get there, but I don’t know when!

Just like old times there's her familiar features
Peeking shyly up from the snow-clad earth,
Hair adorned with circlet of dainty flowers.
Beautiful Springtime.

The Redemption of a Lost Soul

Touched and changed by kindness as repentants are:
healed, being forgiven and living fully;
Christ did redeem me before death occurred...
sparing intense pain.

Grace of 42

When the time is right for the child of laughter
Look on all corruption of love from anger
Place yourself in hands that could end the madness 
Fade into graceful

Premium Member Tears Like Rain

Did we weep when winter met its icy death,
or mourn when autumn had its fall, but when the 
summer came with sunny days and  then  it died 
our tears fell like rain
