Premium Member Mildred Fled

Mildred fled when Joe asked her if she
would let him see 'below' for a fee. 
As she shot to a run
though, thread caught and unspun...
So instead, Joe got showed it for free!

Abeyance

Without
your heart
open
emotion unspun

Without
the right feeling
the words
lie unsung

Without
the right words
the
verse to abate

The reader
in Limbo
awaiting
—his fate

Premium Member Spring Time In the Meadow

The daisies laughed as the day unspun.
A faerie frog dance encouraged the grass.
Tulips stretched to see the merriment.
Flute music was heard, musician unseen.
Grasshoppers and butterflies appeared out of the sky.
Spring time in the meadow encouraged by Mother Nature.

Premium Member Oh, Mom

So calm
my mom

my nose
a rose

I shed 
blood red

nose bleed
I plead

cryin’
dyin’

instead
she said

you picked
he kicked

you’ll live
just give

the horse
his course

a fall
is all

don’t come
unspun

what’s done
is done

tale spun
my son

Inside Out

Last night
I was able
to outgrow myself …
again
for the very
first time

Life was unspun
in the moment
relayed
where tomorrow
and yesterday
rhyme

Competing with
the future
the sky
and the moon
my wandering
complete

Turning my
destiny
inside out
my nature
expanding
—replete

Spanish Beauty

Spanish bells to break the sun
a million diamonds come unspun
spiral plumes to yearning earth
holding it's mouth agape
Albeniz in fingerprints
plucking strings in quick descent
brings to mind the toreador
to Dali hallucinate
Catch the sun drops in your hand
with the rhythm in demand
We are chords to strike and sing
a melody delicious
Feel the swell and taste the air
filled with Spanish savoire fare
Dance under the diamond rain
gaping mouth in heaven.
