Pen to page at seven.
Such a tender young age.
Frightens us with dark words.
Brings our nightmares to life.
Leaves shivers of delight!

Penny was one of many,
Counted on daily to fall.
Tails up and head down.
Grounded, hardly lost.
Never found.

New Testament

Liquid red cloaks the Bible.
Each page soaks up less and less.
But it drips beautifully
from the cross to the loose leaf.

And rob the mind of much needed sane.

Premium Member A Limerick For the King

I'm obsessively keen on Stephen King
His universe a fantastical thing
Christine's crimson shock
All things Castle Rock
The only debate: It or The Shining?

Rhythms' of the Soul

Shimmering chandeliers
Sway,
Ever,
So,
Slightly

As spirits
Twirl,
Swoop,
And
Glide

Rhythmically,
In tune.

Dancing,
To no
Music.

Something More

Edgar Poe was named for the poet folks adore
but he cared not for women known as Lenore.
Reading Stephen King
was clearly his thing
unaware the model was made decades before.

Noisy Knight

There was a young knight from St. Stephen,
Whose behaviour was decidely uneven,
His raucous parties all night
Caused the locals such plight,
Some preferred him not to be breathin .

25th on “100 Greatest Britons,” Stephen Hawking
used ground-breaking "text-to-speech” talking.
Given few years to live with Lou Gherigs’ Disease,
he surpassed expectations when life he did seize!

Premium Member Vignette-The Face of An Angel

Stephen, man full of grace
Spoke out the word,face to face,
Unafraid to chastise or chide
As there was no place for truth to hide-
For this faith,was stoned and died.

If gently bidding S.H. adieu
  Makes Gal Gadot an ableist,
Then her hypersensitive critics
  Are nothing if not labelists.

Stephen King is an author of some fame.

Everyone that's read a book knows his name.

His books are intended to scare us through and through

But it's nice to know he sleeps with the lights on too.
