Premium Member Cacti Games

In the desert, succulents sun themselves; they’ve no need to work. Full of drink they bask; playing Opossum for predatory eyes. Any flower, wild or in a garden, must be jealous.

Succulents

Culinary resonations my senses please
Blowtorch trimming the tapering of cheese 
Cremated lactations dance on the fan’s breeze
Crab forks impaling young peas 
Lightly dusting salt of the seas
Grindings of exotic teas
Marinades my taste buds tease

Premium Member Not Fond of Succulants

I had never been fond of succulents
They are usually a dull green,
Shaped in the same way with stiff petals 
Hens and chicks, we used to call them in Iowa
But today I saw some new ones.
They are purplish blue, a gorgeous color
I have changed my mind now


Indirect Light

it resides on the southern side of houses
 that are filled with cacti and other succulents.

 it reflects in between chagal moons
 and smoldering cigerette butts.

 i saw it once under a lamp along the 
 roadway just after it rained along cheklov
 and 12th st, it was  so surreal and beatiful.

Premium Member Moments of Mine

The lace of a Lily
and grace of a bee
the face of a flower 
and sun on the sea
Silhouette shadows
cloud painted skies
rivers of peace 
a bird as she flies 
colorful lichen
the succulents glow
still water mirrors
and Autumn’s first show
All of them captured
as moments in time
life’s truest treasure 
these moments of mine

Premium Member Cool Duskiness

Intense thirst in the sweltering desert, yet, the emerald succulents still thrive; for surviving, often takes extra effort. Intense thirst in the sweltering desert; Then cool moon arrives, as if pressured. A beautiful, flowering cacti night, alive! Intense thirst in the sweltering desert, yet, the emerald succulents still thrive.

My Nook

Succulents line the windowsill 
Of a sunlight, drenched nook
Jasmine, draped, rafters spill
Down rows and rows of books

A gentle creak, follows feet
As they sweep across the floor
To a homely, cozy, quirky seat
Warmed as sun rays pour

Bustling streets, beyond the glass
A thousand worlds away 
A witness to a life, so fast
Yet, in my nook, I stay

Premium Member SUCCULENTS-

I've tasted her lips 
weave kissed
 her saliva was sweet 
sugary like licorice
 juicy plump
 like bubble gum
 like a butterfly sucking nectar 
Plum lips sulligan
 succulent
 skin soft warm vibrant 
the nectary sweet 
I receive her sugary liquid 
from after her lips
 my beloved kiss aah! Just so...

Morning

Morning is a bright looking florescent
that unfold splashes of sultriness;
thrilling luminosity blewing off saturnine 
incessantly each day you awake
to greet your pallid-cream face.

It shoot in succulents embrace
flurrying optimism and illusory hope
as fiery as your desires
just enough for a blade
to slash through depression
with unassailable sense.

Whilst to others
it's a suicide ice 
& huge spectre
that will ruin
the gambles of their nights.
