Trace Me

Let the breath of your mouth skim across my skin. Let your tongue trace every crevice, every ridge and curve, every valley and in between.

Echo of Him

He said he loved me,

yet still left me.

If he loved me, how could he hurt me?

Forever, I will love him

the way he could never love me.

Refined Sense Can Trace the Gap

An expert player  
                                  Refined sense can trace the gap 
                                        between sense and words

Premium Member Trace of Trance

Silently succumbed at night To Her intangible sight... Vaunted muse vanished by dawn - Vibrant verse humbly lives on. November 3, 2020

Trace

Timorously I move alongside
Rendering me anxious and edgy
At Last I have found her
Casually I hugged the body I loved most
Ending weeks of intense tracking.

Trace

Paw-prints in the snow
Frozen in time;
Tracks once swift halted,
Still but already gone;
A trace of thee untraceable,
An anonymous signature
Of something which was.

Here Without a Trace

Within the crowd I am indistinguishable.
A piece of hay in the haystack, a needle I am not.
The flower I am on the wall.
I see All, I hear All. 
But none see me.

Trace

Trace

You came and left like the wind

Sometimes I wonder if you were
Ever really here at all

But you were I can see your footprints
In the path of my existence

Trace of Accelerated Pace

Trace of Accelerated Pace

We would have to track down each trace,
Of what they saw at an accelerated pace;
Intend,
No end;
Realized around in a circle had been race.

Without a Trace

Have a blessed birthday, dear Tish, 
The sunlight starts to rise and glow; 
The shadows of the night vanish 
Without a trace hours ago.

Premium Member No Trace of Taste


A trace of taste was not found.
Cancer took it away without a sound.
I wept and hid my fround.
Succulent had no say.
Perhaps it will someday.
Must be hard to live that way.
Form: Rhyme

Trace

Here I lie and trace
The red crescent moon
You left on my waist.

Fingers traced my spine,
Dug in deep, drew this
Shaded shape of mine.

Trace the tender mark
You branded on my
Neck and naked heart.

Tried To Trace

Tried To Trace

Where call came from we tried to trace;
Searched and searched all over place;
Lost and could not find;
Impeached and left behind;
Would like to see look on Trump's face.

Premium Member Cletus O'Toole's Navy Career Sank Sans a Trace

Cletus joined the Navy on a fool whim

   And was told he needed to learn to swim

      He was launched off the dock

         And he sank like a rock

             The Navy straightaway got rid of him
Form: Limerick

an untitled trace

thick trees engulf the hidden spell;
soft streams collide on risen ground;
so much, so fast, so far we go —
then leave the remnants of the trampled dust.

My morning excursion to the pee pee place Is fraught with danger, often fall on my face Walls, doors, even the dresser Obstacles cause me lot of displeasure Destroying my good looks with nary a trace

With a Trace

With a trace of grace,
I caressed your pretty face
Erase life's hard race

With a trace of grace,
I did scratch off your disgrace...
I got to keep pace

Dismiss ignorance
With a trace of elegance
Need some assurance

Premium Member Leave No Trace

(Kathmandu, 2009)

Leave No Trace

Step into nothingness
my little one
let the Great Night swallow you whole
be a spark 
be a fire 
that gently burns away 
to leave no trace
when the morning comes.

(1/25/20)

Premium Member No Trace

I search in my heart
for a speck of love for you,
but I abandoned all hope
no more will i cry
if our paths ever cross again
I will act as if your 
gone and forgotten
and I've left behind nothing
to signify any trace of you

Premium Member No Trace Remaining

vanished in thin air
in seconds
no trace remaining
of passion's fiery kisses
   enchanted evenings
   everlasting nights
swift plunged into the icy abyss
where memories brittle crack --
winters of discontent in jealousy sown

Premium Member Capt Smith's Immortal Words As The Titanic Sank Without A Trace

She was posh and built at enormous cost

   Alas, She was fated to be star-crossed

      Plunged to Her eternal grave

         Capt Smith gave a final wave

            And shouted, "Cheer up folks! All hope is lost!"

See signs show
Grace grooms glow

Know your place
Seek bold space

Prize calm pace
Joy in place

Glimpse true grace
