Premium Member Poem from Her True Love

  
     Gentle are the ball and chain
        that tether me to you

     Glad am I you’re not sadistic
        and bake me cookies too

Lips Chirping and Badly Burping

Regardless of weather,
Or else lips like leather;
Are chirping;
Badly burping;
Like a ball that is tether.

This is Trump the Terrible.

Faith

A ring of truth, a silver star, 
so set me adrift and I won't get far, 
but tether my soul to astounding faith 
and all that is left is my rippled wake...

Premium Member Crazy Tether Ball Playing Hornet

A crazy tether ball playing hornet
Fell on her head over the game’s rope net. 
Her mamma said “What?”
She fell on her butt.
Accidentally showing her pink corset.
Form: Limerick

Hope

Frustrations may get a long rope,
But there’s a tether we call hope
That puts despair in falling slope.

No Empathy, With Sympathy

Out of the rubble,
And through trouble.
My hopes, doubles.
Weaving together,
This fair weather.
Evil dare tether.
In mental telepathy,
Feel no empathy,
With sympathy.

Premium Member Knitting Memories in the Dark

Listen to poem:
Knit one, purl one
two knit together.
On we go, entwining begun.
Next a loop we pull to tether
Then a purl one, a reversal done.
Now a lace embrace, two as one forever.
Form: Rhyme

Unsaid


a single glance
holds more than spoken words—
a tether stretching across time,
tight with what we never voiced and told,
humming like stars we name but never touch.

The Eyes of the Hunter

After, they asked if I knew the truth about her 
From said head, I plucked out mine own eyes 
the pulling strain from your tether
which devised
a glimpse of the nether:
everyone wore leather.

The Armada

Tether,
Untightened
with frugality
The message. 

Pounce.
Patter.
Or none of the
Above.

Nontheless,
The war room
should receive
this visit.

Eternal Tether

Threads unseen, yet tightly wound,
Hearts in silence, ever bound.
Through time and space, a soulful call,
One love found, one love all.
A fleeting breath, a whispered vow—
Forever starts in the here and now.
Form: Rhyme

Despair

I sat the light 
yet it is dark 
night has fallen not 
my eyes be open 
blind I be, darkness by, 
the sun settle not 
o am I frock by despair 
not a shine lend to me... vision, 
and my way... 
       tether darkling

My Beloved’s Abode

World-weary and at the end of my tether
Yonder lies my beloved’s abode
Random as the fallen flight feather
Magic horse for me is the only mode
Critical as it is to bring us together
Lamenting, toward the setting sun I rode.
Form: Rhyme

At a glance

heart lacks tact
face flushes crimson
eye contact

lip quivers
taken by his smile
she shivers

a phone rings
breaking the tether
heart still sings

heart lacks tact
taken by his smile
heart still sings

Hurricane Smile

I pay no attention to the forecast,
  I just blend into the weather.

Was it not clever
  to attempt to tether
    our pleasures together
      to the feathers of forever?

I knew you were a dream
  when I was going through you.
Form: Rhyme

Wonderful Awe7

Oh the wonderful awe I sense
As the great ocean greets me.
Her rhythm and majesty so intense
yet so soothing and free.

Though my soul may be adrift
or lashed to some calamity
Her waves do tether and are swift
To center my reality

Poems In Time

Poems in time
Writing simple rhymes
Artistry as a mime

Digital blocks come together
Our screens tie us with a tether
Simple minds float like a feather

Words come to me not
nor idea, thought, or plot
Is what we write for naught
Form: Rhyme

I AM ANGER

fists of cracked stone, palms turning leather 
words left to linger behind your pursed lips 
rise with my fever - who fastens the tether 
no second to consider your letters on ships
I reign to set fire your mind’s dreary weather

Uncle Sam Got My Son, the Man

Uncle Sam Got My Son, the Man

My heart feels joy and sadness—together.
Watch me tether madness.
I know there should be gladness.
He joined the service…  sad-nest.

As time rolls on by
a dream, the same dream
of our life together,
alas always about the memory
as light as a feather
in Technicolour
at one’s tether,
that makes life tough
like a flower of love
alone in an acre of corn.

The Picture

Look at her
So happy and alive
Not knowing the child should be 3 months
The one she couldn't have

The only tether to life
Another child of 3

can't die yet
Must live by rote

Aching to be her once again
The picture falls from my hand

Premium Member A Proposal Poem

O lassie, I were loving you far longer than I knew,
And I would have you know of it, before the eve were through.
Through fair and feisty weather,
We shall face it all together,
And our hearts shall be our tether,
If you will but say "I do".

Mind's eye mandela

My anchored threads of thought

Internal musings

Spun into my soul's fine cloth

Tether me to life's hard earth.
