Short Symbolise Poems

The New Year
Arrives 
In a pack 
Of playing cards!

No one knows
What the New Year 
Holds for us!  

The pack contains
52 cards
Plus two jokers!

The 52 cards
Make the 52 weeks—
One card 
For each week!

The jokers 
Symbolise
Joy and sorrow!  

One of them 
Will attend on us
All the time…
So there is a fair mix
Of both
For us
Through the year!

That is the way
The New Year
Is going to be!

That is the way
Life is going to be…...

Autumn, the burnish of her hair
  Trapped devil flecks of pitchfork red,
Cascading shades of setting suns
  Billowing on the satin bed.
Lithe puma she stretches,
  Lissom flesh as fluid milk,
In the scarlet of her parting lips,
  In the rust motes of her eyes,
In the pallor of her cherished skin,
  Sex and sweetness symbolise.
Red as the bleed of Shepard clouds
  Burning the twilight fields,
Autumn, the burnish of her hair,
  Beauty, her yield of yields....

I don't need a day that's been set aside
To tell of my love that's forever,
For you are the moon and I the tide
Inextricably linked together. 

I give you no rose to symbolise
The passion my heart holds for you
For it's petals can't match the beauty I see
In your eyes of sparkling blue.
 
So I give you these words 
And the truth that they speak
For the message they carry is pure,
You are all that I dream of
And through all of my life
My love for you will endure....
