Short Soother Poems

Soft coastal waters
Lapping gently at my feet
Easing my sad soul...

Sweat trickled eyes
Winged Biters
Oh welcome Autumn
Soother of brows
Apple ciders
Leaves tumbling down
Smoke scented air
Socks and Shoes
Confine us
As it’s due
Leaves in changing hue...

Teacher of my heart
   Soother of my wounds
Rock of my salvation
 Faithful guide
     Lifter of my head

...whom shall I compare to you?
Elroi. He sees my pain.

 Deliverer of my troubles....

Takes a hard look in the mirror to see
The world does not revolve around us 

Shedding the shackles holding us back
Sets our souls free to soak in the truth

There is an eternal spring of serenity
Waiting to cleanse our weary hearts...

S creaming infant.
P iercing cry.
I nsistant, persistent.
T ry the soother.

T ie the ligature.
H old the syringe.
E nd the craving.

D on't you see?
U terine hits are
M issed by baby
M anaging cold turkey?
Y our little junkie.

Round marblelike structures
Craftily aligned on wearer's waist 
Boasts loudly in the manner of silence 
Of Mother's amaranthine intelligence 

Ibèbè, magic or science? 
Ibèbè, the magic of science 
Soother of the pain cursed 
On the woman's seeds 

Orbs powerful of exhibiting
An infinite range of colours 
Bestow beauty on bodies.
The awe of Mother's and God's creation....

Dear little tear, I feel the tickle
as you trickle down my cheek.
I am wishing you safe journey
to the stream of tears you seek.
Find the river where tears gather
on their journey to the sea,
taking all our fears and troubles
as you’re doing now for me.

May you join soon with the others,
each of whom has played the role
a healing wash for sorrow
or a soother of a soul....

Those red terry terry lips
I want to give a swift kiss 
I have been alive but on coma
Maybe a kiss will heal the trauma

Gently, I will hold your cheeks
Clearing tendrils of fallen hair 
Won't you read deeply to my eyes?
Nearing my face to yours

Warm breath, a soother
Then came those soft sweet lips
Sending millions of electric charges tip
Stimulating; reviving me to life

I guess most times I was a soother for most,

Not that I complain about it,

But it is a sad fact to kno,

No one is around for my part,

Iss always me in the role,

Me at the crossroads,

No empathy or feelings,

Dude an outburst like who cares,

Comes to mind,

But factually I havent been raised as such,

I kno the other way is ignorant,

So sayin I believe I’ll bide my time,

Til suffrage is possible,

Then fly away,

Like a bird of age!...
