Premium Member Gender Wars On Gerund Turf

Expressing
digesting
protesting
frustratedly stifled.

Projecting
rejecting
infecting
frustratedly rifled.

Lonely Blue Ocean
breaks the abiding gold sands....
surf and turf mingle
under clear undaunted skies---
blue moon fades to sunlit gold.

The Kite

He flew his kite on a strange turf
With lighting you can expect the worst 
The lighting took him along
The kite’s grip got strong
Snatched him out into the universe

Sliding the jet black blinds
The shafts of light appear
A laser show on turf
Shines like a chandelier
A divine portrayal
Day starts with this premier

Premium Member Blood Diamonds

Blood diamonds or war diamonds
Diamonds that bleed and saturate the earth
As men killed and enslave to protect his turf
A taste only the meek shall inherit.
Blood diamonds !

Advocate Doctor

Hard disk,
My bisque.

Doc files,
Spread miles.

Drum Tunes,
Spiked dunes.

Surf gem,
Turf mem.

Tough chat,
Loved stat.

Pict list,
Deft mist.

Top space,
Set face.

Premium Member Back Yard Eye Sore of Summer

Though it gets lots of water,
our grass on clay dirt yellows;
stubborn thorny weeds reside. . . . 
where might I buy turf?

Infinity

I lay on the turf one night I turned the sky upside down And into a black sea and rode a canoe And paddled and saw myriad phosphorescence below Twinkling one after Another and so on . . .

Moon

The dreamy lovers walk  
And gaze at Earth -
A pretty marble ball.
Their home since birth,
This dreary lunar base,
So lacking mirth.
But, oh, imagine turf
Or kissing by a firth.

3 Spring Haiku

Pill bugs wet with dew
as crawling gray domes mirror
green turf, salmon sun.

Copter seeds whirling,
a squirrel chases paper
treasure for her nest.

Young cat mock-tweeting,
wily sparrows unheeding,
paws press on the screen.

Expressions

It was a turf war.
The moon was booby-trapped 
   by clouds.

       *

   An electronic 
claws holds you to the 
   chest of night.

       *

   From flesh
to flesh, I surrender 
   my nomadic spirit.

Premium Member Right Side of the Turf

Each day we rise on the right side of the turf, it's a bonus A whole lot depends on us, on us guys is the onus No one else is to blame In this lifelong game It matters not that we dribble or ashamed of our slowness

Stepping On Toes

stepping on toes
invading territory
moving in on turf
unacceptable 
uncomfortable transition 
not going to 
take laying down
if threatened will
push back 
not going to 
back down 
this is not going 
to happen 
it will not fly
Form: Lyric

Olympics

A thorn in the flesh of the green, green grass
Between the line painted straight,
And sometimes bended.

The reek of the starters gun so black
The bulge of the rippling calves, sometimes slack,
As spikes rip through the blades
Of turf so lovingly tended.

Moon Dancer

Her silhouette in moonlight’s gaze
accentuates her splendid curves
she dances in moon’s golden glow
feet tiptoe ‘cross the velvet turf

She floats through night’s gentle breeze
as if she were a lullaby
enticing only lovely dreams
amid a velvet midnight sky

Castrated

CASTRATED In ebony air on flight through night nothing is big or too far off figuratively speaking streams forgetful surf high pitch screams sandpits churn tough turf a wastage of egg rock inert © Kim van Breda—10 November 2015

                     Liberty smiling
                     Sun, sand, wind, sea, surf rising
                     People took back turf

Telling Remains

I nearly trod on it a deposit on the grass the remains of a meal pulled apart. Little bones and pieces of life lost devoured by whoever an owl perhaps but now spread on the turf for beetles and flies - microbial nutrients. Creations story displayed.

The Hope

As I live within this eve of the fall that I perceive, 
the autumn of the world is near but this is not my greatest fear.
The Hope that fails to please the meek,
shall bless the turf that weak men seek.
The Fear dissolves within thine lives,
and paints our eyes some shade of blind.

Turbulent Grounds

As i walk on the earth's turbulent turf, Iook back on events that occurred after my 
birth.  I dealt with what i felt was the worst and starved after being over-worked.
Relationships aren't safe because betrayal lurks.  You can't trust what wears 
skirts, earrings and carries a purse.

Roses Won'T Due

Private times be still in mind
Longing for the joy you bring
Be in tune to hearts desire
Rays toll tailor made
Drinking favorites saved
Heart to heart
Seconds untouched
Silent hills most treasured turf
Be the Valentine most thought of
Sending this out today 
Just to pave the way

Premium Member Blue Sky Fountain - El

Haunting pink cloud wisp afloat
cause for green earth souls to gloat 
sun-drenched valley’s red throat whine 
tear duct sheds a moist turf pine 
blue sky fountain, airborne stream
yellow grass whets spring well dream 
haunting pink cloud wisp afloat

Serinity,Complexitivity

My sactuary is 
my only turf 
my weakness..
is the weakness 
of my own 
personality
serinity and 
calmness flow 
through me
yet you do not 
know what rakes 
within
has life and yet 
takes no form
A dullness not i 
can comprehend
unsettleness of 
the mind and soul
And a churning 
of the brain.
