my green eyes open
pitch dark then the room lights up
a scintilla moon

Dark night coalesced
Beloved idyllic kiss
Evanescent sky
Encompass loving ether
Scintilla of wood parfum

INCANDESCENT DARK
scintilla of light
in a sky sans moon and stars
a billowing flame

Did Nelson give one scintilla
about France’s silly flotilla?
No! Nor was he bashful at court,
though of the quite gaseous sort,
as his farts smelled of vanilla.

“Your cone's so thick, can I have a lick?”
(Bill, surprised, dropped his wad on the brick!)
Not any vanilla,
nary a scintilla,
did poor Susie’s sweet tongue get to flick.

A flame containing exponential fervor and luster
scorches a visage through the cerebellum
a scintilla of contact melts the epidermis
utilize every fluid ounce quenching the burning ache

Painting pops with purple passion.
Whole, white and waxing
Moon magnified in magnificence.
Shadows subtly settle - scintilla
edgework excites,
points, presents props
to watery waves -
pretty, purple and peaceful.

Alliteration
The breeze of hope will blow away the deep foliage of despair
Hearts in blue funk a bright scintilla of earnest hope will mend and repair
A new dawn embarks on the streets where once darkness dwelt
Bow down to the Mercy of Mother Nature to which the world Knelt
A breeze of hope gently caress the coldest despair.

Rhyme
Yellow dreams of scintilla held ever tight
filling distant fields hidden out of sight
morning mist moves across the meadow
and sounds of a new day come alive
Hints of light rise from a darkened sky
parts of me arise, shown sparks in my eye
others just wait, still on a cloud covered day
begging for her warmth to forever stay

A new morning, bright, not in its light, but in its brilliant composure.
—quote by poet
God Orchestrates a Momentous Morning
As the sun provides a scintilla of light
at dawn, and the clouds squeeze out
slight sprinkling, atmosphere tweets
along with the daybirds and hoots
with the owl. S u d d e n downpour -
delightful the serendipitous chorus.

Christmas scintilla dressed in Holiday cheer
Merry Christmas has become something dear
Though Santa is sprucing up his new red suit,
its good old St. Nick that I loved, in my youth
Yuletide greetings coming from a lit computer
Santa used to fly on a sled and not a scooter
I'll take an old fashioned Christmas of beauty
over a modern Christmas, of gifts and duty ...

May you all have a serendipitous, serene Sunday
and an immeasurably magnanimous Monday,
Would that the tallow of your Tuesday be tantalizing
wielding the wonders of Wednesday in writing,
thence thanking Theism the theme of Thursday,
finally forgetting fears and feeling the freedom of Friday,
so making your Saturday a scintilla of a Sabbatical.
In other words: have a great week y’all!

Alliteration
speaking of dreams
the thrill, the screams
limbs are frozen,
eyes open wide
speaking of dreams…
zombies in beds
kids hiding under them
the thrill, the screams…
a clown suspended
over the bed
the thrill, the screams…
window too close
a monster’s guillotine
speaking of dreams…
scintilla of light
grand peeks heaven
speaking of dreams
the thrill, the screams

Verse
Thy hands, fragrant, on my breast--
The softest touch I ever savoured
And the scintilla in thy words,
O the memory of an experienced night.
As the gleeful bird on the highest bough
And whenever thou lookest through green and green
I roam from verduous shrub to shrub
Of thy garden immensely embellished.
Then thy flower thou tuck’st into my hand,
The fadeless pleasure I return to thee.

gray days are make believe,
with a scintilla of birdsong,
almost annoying in its tease,
like a chimerical haze.
hope remembers the sun,
its shining rays,
elaborate feathers,
and paradisiacal dance.
green moss, creeping ivy,
budding oaks, streamers
of newborn pink willow,
stunning blue eyes of paradise
these Winter bones ache...

RED CARPET
red carpet
of kings and queens
rolled out
it’s the one our grandparents knew
it rolls
one
up
in
a
heap
we struggle to understand
that suffering
and death
are ‘specially seen
in the latter years
i used to be green
i’d hear
the thunder crack of cancer
see the scintilla of light
under
the door
i’d wonder
of it
but not
know
the knowing
fills bone marrow
the scraping
of the bones’
throes

in memories a scintilla of faith
momentarily sustains surging tears
as the pulse of darkness awakens wraith
erasing the distance of lonely years
your voice befalls the silence my soul hears
in the absences death has bequeathed me,
i linger on the edges of time's quay
crawling along these worthless grains of sand
awaiting whatever shall come to be
too empty to care, too fragile to stand

The mind…The brain…
No more than pale grey paste
Snuggly enclosed within
Thin calcium case
Afloat…Adrift
In cerebral sea
Sentient jelly essence
Of both you and me
Able to inform us
Yet n’er given scintilla of light
Of brilliance of Sunshine
And deep, darkness of night
Tis the architect of our reality
Gives shape and substance to our world
Emotions…Dreams…
All things it seems
…while lying quiescently curled…

Ode
I picked up a Rose an emblem of love
Hopeful heart and a rolling tear
He loves me and he loves me not
One petal at a time with a soft whisper
Each petal of rose a scintilla of hope
With each pluck rising and sinking
Last petal of Rose said loves me not
Eyes made way for bursting tears
Letting go is not an easy mission
Hope searched and found another Rose
He loves me not and he loves me true
Whispering again I found my self

Romanticism
Arrogant Annabelle
She looked in her mirror and
declared her self, "hot."
Poor soul, unaware that what
we do, impresses not a soul.
Naught!
Bobbing above all humanity,
Not one scintilla of humility.
She has it all in spades.
Other humans could never reach
her grade.
So in judgement, she stands.
Whilst standing on ever so shifting sands.
There's only one god in the universe.
To think we are Him is so pathetic and perverse!

I do not know?
In us a flame ,scintilla
magic at the core ...
Withstands all this
is the divine link and flash ...
Spark of love
that enlightens us ...
Ignition magnificent that
propels us to
the health of lives ...
Let's preserve
this superlative treasure ...
It is the unbreakable milestone
of our sublime alliance
with omnipotence, omnipresence
and eternal omni-awareness ...!

Each mote of dust that floats airborne
eddies on the light cool balmy breeze
ushered from wide open window
fragrancing the house with summer scents.
Eddies on the light cool balmy breeze,
posies perfuming and performing
petals swishing by outside, free and alive.
Ushered from wide open window
pollen clouds wafts and wanes
settling a scintilla of ochre magic, sill deep.
Fragrancing the house with summer scents
banishing all the stale still murky air
invigorating all within.
