A door unopened
the knock
makes almost
no sound
so subliminal
is
the flimsy veil
of steel
that guards the answer.

touched with blush of rose
her unopened bud brushed cheeks -
a buck's eyes linger

Lyric
With arms wide open
and with a mind open wide
I would too open
my body to you; yet you
remain unopened,
thus, for you, nothing more but
my veins are left to open.

So fragile, I could count the veins
beneath her pink petaled softness.
In ruffled skirts, like a gypsy she danced,
coaxing her unopened buds to bloom.

The mini skirt walked away
The night remained unopened for 50 years
An unexploded grenade
Buried beneath the golden wheat fields of Normandy.

The Unfinished Poem
An unfinished poem awaits in the darkness of my unopened notepad it's own delivery. Soon to be the child of the author, cared for and pampered; then shared with all.

The
missive
came, posted
from my home town.
Detached, I laid it aside for awhile.
A week passed, I unearthed the envelope.
She will arrive
on the train
today!
Mom.

The crisp falling:
of thoughts.
November night.
Longing to
feel you on
lips and falling.
Falling of moon
and the bruises:
dew on grass.
a-complaining,
nothing; unopened
eye of a wound.

The envelope
unopened
addressed
to himself
Inside
unspoken
old hopes
and dreams
Lost
and rerouted
the stamp was
foreign
Its port of entry
still
—unforeseen

Verse
You made me,
Created out of nothing just to
Let me be.
No hopes of seeing the shores,
No boat to stay afloat.
‘Tis a gift best left unopened.
Just by nature, I will breath.
I will cling onto the edge
And ask “Why do I bother?”

Blank verse
I stare at doors unopened now,
For they were hidden forever
Or so it seemed; It happened then,
I found a key and together
With you, I stepped through this door and
I saw a world so full of hope.
I have not found it since that day.

My eyes were closed then
On your unopened eyes you felt
Enticed me dreaming of you.
My eyes are open now
In your unclosed eyes I see
Entranced me drowning in you.

Verse
I'm alone tonight
awake in bed
a book on my lap
unopened
unread
this book is my life written by me though the words ive never seen
this book tells my life from others perspectives
oh how i want to open this book
but i can't
its locked.

I do not know?
Buying was an obsessive hobby of hers
She was an avid collector of stuff
Her house was filled with unopened boxes
She stacked them to the ceiling and used paths
Most of her new things were never unpacked
Left for distant relatives to discard after her demise

We try to relive them, we try to forget them
Past times have shaped today, some we have defied
Some have died in unopened pages, others live on in folklore
They never go away, no matter how fast the future comes along
The past times are not past, they always tag along

A sh**load of sparrows
Dancing on the wires
Spots on my truck
A howling of leashes
Domesticated torture
A cat hisses
A cacophony of phrases
A drumming of woodpeckers
Shouting – quiet please
Unopened flowers
A menagerie of metaphor
Optical conclusions

She looked for daffodils
Of course, she found them
Sought out lilies
Found them too
The rest of the world was stuck in grayscale
Feeling dour and disappointed
With unopened concrete minds
Not finding even a tiny violet in a crack
What is her secret? Someone asked.
She believes said another.

Hours drift by
Yet here l still lie
Eyes and mind wide open
Desperate for sleep
Counting Little Bo-Peeps sheep
Eyes and mind wide open
Frustrated and forlorn
For now it is dawn
Eyes and mind wide open
Soon it is time to rise
I will be the walking dead in disguise
Eyes and mind unopened!

Rhyme
the day before her wedding
Pandora found her mother’s loony box
there were journals about her bi-polar condition
and her suicide plans.
We were glad she kept it silently locked
did not read it on that day
or any other day,
preferring to burn it unopened
after she had been married for fifty-six years.

what is
what was
what will be
what never to see
what never to feel
what never said
what shouldn't have been said
what awaits
what I await
what paths taken
what doors unopened
what halls traveled
what follies experienced
what love lost
what once tasted
what once trusted
never forgotten
but, oh so missed.
