Water is unfaithful
It breaks without itself be broken
That's why my tears
My weeping never dissolved me...

Held together with duck tape funny
Repairs a lick and promise
Polished with cloth and Comet
Mechanics work done very subtly  ...

Subtly hidden in the yard

Why hath thou stole with thine fingers, my prime
Eternity, in scores, hath my mind thought findeth,
That, in scores my life shall liveth;
Subtly, subtly, my youth, you stole, Time!...

True
love is
the one thing
that changes you,
shaping who your are,
and yet does this 
so subtly,
it don't
hurt.

velvet voices dance with vibrating violins
octaves often overreached, to
inoculate innocence in
children's choirs, our
expectations exceeded, our experiences
string us along, and strangles us subtly...

Conscious/sub conscious thought operating, alternating subtly

Channels from which you express, create, exist, connect, hide, embrace

Power for something from nothing and also nothing from something...

Simplicity in nature such as animals or blossoms
Stimulate a brain blossom translated into poetry
Rhyme, narrative and verse have my thoughts like bright mums
Energize for creation of whimsical concise subtly...

From the depths I cry with passion,
Springs of water gush forth
Unleashed;
I run over stones sans caution
Trails subtly across earth
A feast!

As the sun was setting,
A fog came easing in,
The world into a murmer went
An other day subtly spent.

The fog then stopped,
But for a moment
To form a far streached bank,
Then back again it's creeping course
Up the valley still....

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.

so
                  ironic
                  that art
                  subtly shares
                  a dubious intimacy
                  with the slightly askew,
                  with the quite assymetrical
                  with the somewhat . . . artless....

Your tender voice anointing my ears
        the delectation of my spoken name
that look of adoration in your eyes,
 speaks to me softly 'neath intensely lit moons,
    'midst subtly mesmerizing whispered passion
             lost in quintessential heart's surrender...

With a cool frosty wind 
He came calling 
Swiftly drifting inward 
With a  fruit 
Stretched as a reward 
For every word
Subtly tearing the branch 
From every trunk 
With a canny laugh
Tethering the head
Roping the man
Sounding the beginning 
With a bit
For every bait....

Orange mid-October freckles blemish the trees,
while Jack Frost etches abstracts on cold window panes.
And cinnamon-colored leaves fall with each brisk breeze
as Winter subtly approaches, and Summer strains
to maintain green canopies till November's freeze....

A cool nip in the air
Fall is fast-approaching
Katydids frantically chirping
Fluffy clouds like sheep gather
In the cobalt blue field of the sky
Leaves are subtly turning gold
Birds know it's time to go
Before the first snow

You compare me to the sun and moon
Its night somewhere where its day
Today we decide to walk far too soon
You compare me to the sun and moon
Of many planets surrounding us loom
And what we are here to subtly say
You compare me to the sun and moon
Its night somewhere where its day...

The city spreads its streets like long
Tentacles that stretch and twine,
As looming Evil weaves a webbed design
Around the bustling, London throng.

But North of Marble Arch is bleak
Praed Street, where the shadows gloom,
And Solar Pons sits musing in his room
Of criminals he’ll subtly seek....
