Short Splendors Poems

Isn't it childish
That on my way home I crunch
Every single leaf?...

The beauty I see,
nature in all it’s splendor,
Love’s forms manifests.

I am a collector of natures splendors
Rocks, sand, plants and feathers,
Around the world they come together
All in one place for me to treasure....

Of these
ceaseless tears
spilled 
throughout the
years,

music shall soar
and pardon
your heart
once more

 (To everything there is a season)

Though an 
evening of
sorrow,
there's always
tomorrow

were joy
splendors
the morning....

Clusters of marshmallow clouds hanging above
       Bright, iridescent colors of the rainbow
        Geese flying in dazzling synchronicity
                        Splendors in the sky

Willingly,
I give 
This 
Heart;
To 
Have and hold.
Inscribed with
Special hopes and dreams, of my 
Kindred soul…
Inseparably,
Spliced within the 
Splendors gracing our lives


Comments:
Happily, I seal my pledge with this kiss
Assuredly, this love shall last eternally...

Unhurried, loose, easy 
Meandering, forlorn pathway 
Nightfall, greatness
Scenes, unfurl in obsess
Strolling byway, late day sounds
Dazzling splendors surround 
Among squeaking treetops crowned 
Seeing falling leaves, flicking 
Glimmering mist, crickets ticking 
With heavy steps, leisurely, plodding...

When effulgent sun scattered  his splendors in the firmament
And charming flowers shed their pure sweet bewitching fragrance
Then I whispered an adoring adieu to my loneliness
And cherished the blossoming muses of soup in ecstasy.

First-class ship bound for Norway
o'er glassy seas 'neath cold dark sky
they met passing through the gangway.
Sizzle, pop!  How the sparks did fly!
She a cellist, he a sweet guy
both cruising to view Northern Lights
but once they caught each others' eye
different splendors filled their nights!

Floating through effervescent streams:
    Velvet memories rolling dreams -

My past and future swimming by
  through doors revolving inner-space;
Euphoric bubbles dance and fly,
  Mosaic splendors wearing lace,
Cascading fireworks glint the eye,
  Elegant lilacs, flowing grace;

‘Pyramid Song’ still makes me cry -
     As first I saw her angel face....

Her taste in men; multifarious by nature.
Foolishness by some, as lovers depart.
Memories engraved in her psyche.
Splendors of winter, dancing snow flakes.
A warm winter wonderland embraced by a specter.
Wondering where one might stand.
Unadorned by a tyrant.
An ambiguousness, uncanny phantom.
My zephyr prevails.
At last, a rush of cold wind seeping into my soul....

Apologies to Clement Clarke Moore

The Night Before Christmas

In juxtaposition to the Nativity, while the
house beheld a calm and somnolence splendors
were a cool and gentle balm, the quintescence
of the evening was a certain entourage that
would dispel the expectations of a puerile
melange.
"Veni, vidi, vice", he gave a joyous cry,
"Requiescant in pace, I'll see you by and by."...

Sun scatters splendid splendors in utter silence
Flowers shed their pure fragrance without any aim
Never once they never trumpet their excellence
Real wisdom, real merits acquires great fame.

The moon maps her magic hue in silent midnight
Wind swept in melodious tone scenting surprise
Ever did they ever boost their mettlesome might?
Never fool can ever shine bruiting his own praise....

Tis trick of thought to dream thee so!
Still nearer mine thoughts I cannot release.
The burden of memories I cannot ease
For loves splendors linger still.
Mine most honest heart tortured under
your immortal delicacy
I am bound and chained with
passionate sorrow; half touching madness
For thou art the dream that fadeth too soon
Still in silent musings I am filled with a 
strange sweet hope that someday…. maybe....

A new genus of poetry I shall pen
that shows the splendors of life,death, and rebirth,
the heart breaking hardships that challenge us all.
Where the Gods were born, there were born the titans,
the giants larger than us which we must duel,
for craven it is to fight those weaker than us,
but much glory in becoming giant slayers,
after the example of Thor the mighty,
who fells the thurses with his hammer Mjolnir....

Lit from within,
She glows,.
She glows like a firefly,
Through the evening,

Shes alright,
Shes alright,
Shes alright,

Within the warm and chill winds,
Shes one with the starry night,

She glows,
Like a firefly,
With evening splendors,
And her love within,
Her wings,
Warm and bright,
Shes alright,
Shes alright,
Shes alright,
Shes one with the starry night,
Shes one with the starry night

Crab-apple trees; flush
As the autumn hues ripen
Oak and maple leaves 
Coloured red, gold, and orange…
Gently fall -- covers the earth 









Tanka
Tanka is a classic form of Japanese poetry related to the haiku with five unrhymed lines 
of five, seven, five, seven, and seven syllables. (5, 7, 5, 7, 7)
The 5/7/5/7/7 rule is rumored to have been made up for school children to understand and 
learn this type of poetry....

Varicolored smoke bombs, at a three generation celebration,
Splendors, rest and excitement, on a sun drenched vacation,
A heart bursting with song, love following wherever you go;
And the return to raptures, beneath a multicolored rainbow!
Fragrant flowers opening wide, their petals to gold summer,
And a moonlit tango enchantment, on ebony edges of slumber.

Champagne kisses and caviar dreams these are a few of my favorite things
butler to pick up my phone when it rings 
parakeets to sing to me 
service at the snap of my fingers
the finer things in life are often exotic splendors 
far off the smell of old bones rust in rains of gold 
take off your glasses
shards of dimes blind bright eyes 
look at the moon
full tonight pregnant with life 
look at it, then tell me money is the only thing that makes you happy, honey....

At the valley
Of butterflies
In Rhodes, Greece
I encountered
Nature's love affair
Feisty flowers
Rainbow colors
Flying gorgeously everywhere
Beyond anybody's reach
Fluttering here and there
Once the caterpillars
Magically turned into animated fairies
Gently hugging the trees
With their soft and fragile wings
Their inexplicable performance
Has fully mesmerized
Thousands of travelers
Enjoying the splendors
Of this world
And to be one of them
I am so gratified...

A hilltop covered in yellow and green 
Reveals secrets long unseen 
A quiet stillness pierces the air 
As nature makes clear that she is still there

A barren landscape, or so it seems 
Void of grass or lakes or streams
Yet if you listen carefully for the sounds
Soon you'll find that life abounds

Upon us did nature this treasure bequeath
A constant reminder to look just beneath
And that if we don't train our eyes
The world's splendors will be hidden in plain disguise...
