Stolen jewels from the Louvre 
Priceless heist made by ghouls 
The criminals bold scaled the wall
They caught two but will they talk

Face Will Wear Today and More

So which face should we wear today; 
One that does always seem to say; 
Mountain scaled; 
Fell off and failed; 
Am mad and you better stay out of my way.

All 
alone 
in the crowd,
justice 
stood
seeking
someone
to please.

Like a lonely fish
swimming in a school,
she bites a baited hook
and is reeled in—scaled 
and thrown back—unwanted.

Dragon

Dynamic and huge with sharp claws,
Rampaging the castle,
Ancient kings fought the green scaled creature,
Green poisonous scales sinister and deadly,
Once seen in ancient myths,
Never to be seen as real.

Sanseki

Once jailed and bailed
Virtually mental saw scaled
Angry aggressive and hyper
The crotalinae hypnotic striker
Cold blooded terrestrial Sanseki
Whitish echis carinatus sochureki...
Life is a game with snakes on every level..

Morsel

The obsolete beast of prey
Out of the bogs and mists,
Is leaving his prints in the clay,
Proving that he exists.

A “mythical beast” indeed!
Fasten your portals tight--
The silver-scaled snake will feed
Somewhere on someone tonight.

Angel of Death

Angel of Death,
Cloaked in black.
With black scaled wings,
Upon her back.
Angel of Death,
Coming for me.
As soon as I sleep
Then dead I will be.
Taken by the night
It swallows and consumes me.
Now I am the angel
And death becomes me.

All along 
in the crowd,
justice standing—
seeking  
someone to please:-
Like a lonely fish
swimming
in a school-group,
she bites
a baited hook;
and reeled in,
she’s scaled,
unhooked,
and thrown back:
despised and
unwanted:-

Premium Member Water Ketten

Water is always my release,
release of that impulse to dive.
Dive fish-scaled and iridescent,
 iridescent swells the water. 

Water quiets and feels like home,
home undulates but stays sacred.
Sacred like every rolling wave,
wave that binds my soul to water.

No Greater Return

twice the distance
I walked to seek,
glimpses of hope seemed bleak
to find love for instance

over rocky lands
scoured the valley lows,
up against the windy blows
that scaled upon the sands

same return back 
found hope and goodwill
what I sought was fulfilled
God followed in my track

Premium Member Thought of the day

delighting at offerings of grace bestowed
imbibing God’s benedictions in surprise 
each crest then becomes a trough
new peaks scaled if soul tries

the soul too must disappear
if any trace of separation remains
unless each cell of form radiates light
know Self is as yet bound to ego’s chains

Omega

In a place of standing stones
a mighty beast awakens
Ivory ribcage aglow
fire raging in his belly
a mighty beast awakens
scaled wings flutter
fire rages in his belly
he is Omega the last of his kind
scaled wings flutter
Ivory ribcage aglow
He is omega the last of his kind
In a place of standing stones.

Suddenly the Lake

SUDDENLY The LAKE 

This joyous lunge of spirit
when green forests suddenly part
and reveals a precious liquid animal
bathing its wind scaled body
healing its summer craft scars 
chameleon element locked in grey
contest we both the cloud imprisoned sun

Premium Member Black Void Prey

The spirit of memories polluted 
fingerprints crossing over your spine

Ghouls that crawl eerily creeping
from an abyss of the darkest claws scratching 

Consuming with fire aching burns 
scaled by nightmares of the past demons 

From under tombstones they rise cold echoes 
undead souls of bygone nightshades haunt

If You Want Your Wife To Shine

if you want your wife to shine
build her with faith and love
treasure her as best gift in life
little things that give surprise
get them in her arms frequently
Let her be your baby scaled up
she will return bigger rewards
no sun will shine better than her
in your golden life of marriage
her heart you will loot forever

A Moment of Piety

Cliffs were sentinels reaching to the sky Gulls chided my presence with loud decry I scaled a hilltop to glimpse the sea Piety washed in gentle waves over me Never had I felt so humbled before, watching fingers of foam fondle the shore October 26, 2021 Bite Size Poem no24 Contest Sponsor: Line Gauthier

Silently Move

R-ed beacon March fourteenth
I-s rising above the horizon; 
C-old chill of the wind evades the break of dawn.

E-arly morn has broken, 
D-ark shadows fade away; 
R-ain stops from falling, 
O-ne night turns into day.
S-nake without poison has made
O-ne get into the groove; 
L-imbless scaled reptile
A-ims to silently
M-ove.

Premium Member Cat and the Queen

Pussy cat, we know, went to see the Queen,
But was not let in as he was not clean,
Quietly he scaled palace walls,
Through a window and met Prince Charles!
Now we all know where Pussy cat had been!

Premium Member Within Gaias Tribe

From the womb life gushes forth, in hues of verdigris, red, yellow and blue. Her children leafy sentinels, two-legged, four-legged, scaled and winged; suckle from her abundant breast. We are each a Gaia-seedling, though womb waters are safe harbor for some her essence resides in all within Gaia’s tribe.

Shadows Cast

Dark halls filled with listless flame
	casting shadows upon walls
for souls with no names.

Fury cried upon faithless 
	wings spread wide with tips
		dipped in blood spilled
	by blade
bore of golden hilt. 

Hand fasten to steel
	of warrior made
	iron born mountain
		scaled where Angels lay
	brothers and sisters
of war – slayed.
