Sigh

soliloquy of softness saddened
somber sleeping of starlight sound
song of silken sylvan sunset
psalm of satisfaction found


Premium Member Disappearing Moon

Disappeared?  Moon on the wane - by...a shroud?
just a cloud... and some rain.
I know I'll see her again
on this sylvan, country lane.

light through darkness spills
a verdant sylvan idyll-
night concedes the day


a fog blanket
hides the horizon-
 imagination is king

Show I not scrapers of skies, but majestic
Snow-capped mountains in alpine glow.
Show I not individuals of plastic;
But verdure and sylvan where songbirds show.

Sylvan magic

A silent maid
born of starlight
glides forlorn
deserted by moons
and her blessed tribe
in hallowed mansions
far beyond
the wooded places.

light through darkness spills

a verdant sylvan idyll-

night concedes the day

Sylvan Escape

Listen to the silence,
hear each frozen word
wrap your mind around itself
distant from the herd
Feel the bracing numbness,
lift what can’t be touched
free one starling in the night
—windblown through the musk

On her velvet, aquamarine divan, 
    With poetic thoughts, so sylvan.

At peace with midnight’s universe.
    The starlit sky, understands her verse.

How near to God, in heart, is she. 
    Her feathered, poetic quill, sings of eternity!

Silvan black
Come the grackles
Shimmering blue streaks
Darting toward the sound
Of bird song glee

Bullies
In Zorro garb
Storm the bird feeder
Black darts
Flung at swaying targets
Challenging
The squirrels reign.

Sparrows 
Root for the stalking cat
To strike
Leap high
A streak of red
Upon the sylvan black

Premium Member Mournful Dawn Stroller

A forlorn figure pines while traipsing down the meadow,
dawn dewdrop wet sprinkles mock her sylvan shadow,
red sky ablaze mere  ornate first light wrinkled  lull,
hazy whisper from mint gust for maiden that blind pull,
or bright hue’d  usher to green moss-strewn meander,
where rainbow trout a wily catch might quell one edgy bystander

QUIET TIMES
Shall I or shan’t I
In depression overcoat,
all is blue with me
shall I turn back on stepping
stones of yesteryear.Wait
I will reflect,just for a moment
nothing matter,in this silence
quietness stirs,light through
darkness spills a verdant
sylvan light.How green my
memories Ah I live again

Premium Member A Poet's Sincere Surmise



       silent, sparkling, saturating,silver
       streaked-sky...

       sleeping, sonneteers,in states of 
       sky-castles snore...

       sanguine, self-assured,and so sunset-sure...

       something supremely splendid to scribe...

       softly, sylvan on some soul's snuggly, splendorous, spirit...

It was supposed to be a hiking trip but, turned into more than that; an experience like no other. Just around the sylvan bend, celestial light glowing; unearthly gossamer orb ethereal voice warning, “there’s a cliff ahead!” Miracles do happen, I’ve lived to tell the tale; if I’d walked one more yard I’d be floating down Styx.

Mysterious are venerable trees. The ancient massive trees one sometimes sees deep in the woods exist in seeming ease through endless cycles - spring to winter’s freeze. In great tranquility stand such as these. What changes have they seen through centuries? What secrets have been whispered in each breeze? Pondering, I gaze at sylvan beauties.

Hidden Beauty

HIDDEN   BEAUTY 


Mystery in  the  wood dark
With clear sky peeping through
What does the next path hide?
What  will the leaves reveal?


Song  from a meadowlark?
Deep  lake   velvet  blue?
But   the breeze has  sighed
And tries  to  all conceal -


I must try to closer  hark
Before I sadly say adieu
To my unravished sylvan bride
And  a  farewell  glance I steal.

Heaven Sent

Slowly, dawn emerges with crimson rays,
Portrays its sovereign self amidst the hues 
As warmth endows its worth on seas of trees.
Waves of verdant growth glows in divine design
Where sylvan showers cap canopies with a
Transparent radiant rainbow arc’s blessing.

He waits in a sylvan wood mentor cloaked in orange and black; courage is the lesson of this spirit of prey. Empirical justice is the swords he wields; a traveler of astral light; journeyman of the stars. Daughter of Artemus, and lifelong totem hunting ethereal woodlands sustenance of my soul; silken-furred guide, I melt into your gentility... teach me.

The Enemy Within

There’s nothing sylvan
about the Ivy League
Subversive in nature
all take and no give
In period camouflage
they feign to belong
Their hatchlings abhorrent
together they throng

Our country’s traditions
they chop on the block
What many have died for
their travesty mocks
And living entitled
they suck and they draw
Rewriting our history
—their lies become law

Venus's Phantom

The temple of Venus of Imperial Rome has withstood time,
it has also captured many poets making verses of rhyme;
the MYSTERIOUS temple was once adorned with thyme,
it still stands in a landscape of TRANQUILITY so sublime.
Venus was an ANCIENT deity as VENERABLE as springtime,
now she's a phantom in a temple that lures clowns that mime...
it had that SYLVAN charm without the ugliness of urban grime.

Rhythm of the Sand Pine

Rhythm of the Sand Pine

Lazily waving in the brisk morning air;
Tranquility of a sylvan setting so strikingly rare.
Flailing her arms like the great timberland bear;
This venerable statesman which none can compare.

A mighty conifer standing in the woodland foursquare,
As mysterious and perplexing as the elusive sea hare.
Ancestral descendants of ancient forebears,
Standing at arms, trespassers beware.

     Nature is vast and versatile in diversity
    Fantastic flora and fauna in quantum quality
    Bow to SYLVAN, sacred forest in TRANQUILITY.
     Life owes to origin of species as identity.
     Evolution of ANCIENT Nature was the priority.
     Extinction of species happens on natural calamity.
     Nature is MISTERIOUS in beast and beauty.
     Nurture Nature for future in perfect purity.

A Becoming April

Mossy thresholds open,
mud slips into small lighthouses
on the shoreline of the season.

Backyard rockpools 
become repositories of sunshine.
Roots and puddles 
congregate in underground weddings.
Lost towns emerge to be found.

A raining wash rinses the deep surfaces,
teases the earth ajar,
the ground surrenders to fulfill a promise, 
a warming breath patches green sleeves, 
plants green vowels
in the sylvan silt and the softening.
