Premium Member Mystery

A mystery
is an enigmatically suspenseful adventure
where darkness holds answers
but can only be obtained
if the detective wears courage


Premium Member Cricket Whispers

Whispers find my ears
                  that suspenseful kind of way
crickets chirping crisp

Never the Same

The dagger has no name 
Hater knows no shame 
The purge is underway 
Bloody showers rivaling the rain
Terrified frights, rattling the bone 
Come one, come all
Many watch as the suspenseful white woman is bound to fall
The night is all but through
More violent neighbors whom you never knew
Time is the enemy
Killing became its remedy

Poetry

Words flow and go
What? When? Where? and How?
Tell the story as it is given.
Pondering and wondering
Make it exciting, sad or glad
Suspenseful, heartwarming or romantic
Viewers all like a good story
Embellish as needed
check for spelling and grammar
(don't want to look like an idiot)
Run by your favorite critic
Post on Poetry Soup for all to enjoy.

Depth Charge

Let me hear once more
Your trucks tires crunching along the drive
Your boots on the weathered planks of the porch
The suspenseful sound of your knuckles announcing
The sight of you leaned against the doors frame
Stooping as ushered inside

Your Cheshire cat smile mischievious and mild
And the mystery held within your eyes
I have swam their depth
I have sought conclusion knowing
Your infathomable serene calm surface
beckons me beneath the waves

Premium Member Worst Nightmare Come True

Up, up and away on a hot-air balloon;
soaring in exceedingly high altitude,
then it turns into a fight for survival.
Worst nightmare come true!

Note: I was inspired to write this poem after watching "The Aeronauts" last night on Prime Video. See this awesome movie if you haven't! As someone who hates heights, I found it very suspenseful as well. I can't even begin to imagine the level of fear being in that kind of predicament!
