When the old fellow died,
the cage opened wide,
and a very rich chick
Madov mighty quick.

greeted by silence
over time the tears might dry

Dark Limerick

She screams her unsung song in tune
From afar she'll be arriving soon
She insists I thank her 
She's nothing but a blur
Unseen in the shadows of my room

A Thankyou To Parents

Those who do their best
To give us courage and strength,
Those unsung heroes.
Those who help us stand tall
Throughout our toughest times.

a dirge of tears flood
rivers of sad sorrows flow
as I moan in grief 
lullabies are left unsung 
my babe has flown to heaven

L Shaped Room

To sing an unsung song
Aversion is a great thing
into the winter of our lives
Aquarium blue backs my soul
into the L shaped room
drawing me to Gods care
I quietly surrender

self portrayed in the altogether,for all to see

Lasting Proof Of God's Eternal Goodness


How erring lives buried grace forever,
Makes crying eyes not sieve tears so clever...
Of unsung sins He forgives;
Human nature dare outlives
Either fearful or cheerful endeavour.

Literary Hourglass

There’s just a set number
of poems to write

And writing the last,
I’m done

To die but alone, 
with my words as the pall

Breathless verses
—left unsung

Song of Joy

Struggling to find my wortless hide
Before my melody runs out of rhyme
Pride so free, beautiful as thee
Unsung heroes searching for peace
singing America the Beautiful 
with deserving pride.

Billy Boy

The harmonica plays in the distance,
It’s hard to believe.

The misleading melodies of unsung tomorrow,
Escaping through metal.

In a whirling world of everything but the truth,
How can we tell?

Rooms to go

O Monami! Fiancé these days!
They forgot to pick wrought iron
In their unsung Mays!

In seasons, they sprinkled
In salts they tried,
In their secret recipes
Even my Clover died!

PS. It is still poetry!

Tone Death

Waiting for the music,
naked and alone
the words become orphans,
unsung and unknown

The letters in limbo,
each phrase nether blown
with melody absent
—the magic disowned

(Rosemont College: December, 2021)

Chatter

After its over,
Will listen to an unsung song,
       say something yet untold,
       light a candle yet unlit,
       behold a painting yet to be drawn.
Stay with me O my friend,
for our chatter is yet to end.

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 Too Quick, Too Soon

You're fat
Yelled at

Abused
Misused

Sad sighs
Soft cries

Left home
To roam

The streets
Not sweet

Too quick
Turned tricks

Too soon
Was ruined

On dope
No hope

In jail
No bail

Unsung
Died young

.... Trees barren of old leaves do not become less beautiful in all their nakedness The unsung splendor of each barren branch is a ladder that reaches to the sky
