Beyond

Where darkness,
Goes to rest,
Cold, unwelcome,
Territory,
Silence towards the end,
Fleeting figures,
Whisper,
From,
Beyond.

Premium Member the charm of the unwelcome

The squirrels' desire emphatic
To airbnb in the attic
Means a landlord may leave
Hors d'ouevres in the eave
That make their guests aromatic

Feelings

Feelings…
like wisps of cobwebs clinging,
cannot be shaken away.

They lie there,
unwelcome and unbidden,
Like unwanted guests come to stay.

The Tomorrow of Today

Waiting for time to catch its breath,
I wrote the words unheard

My verses most unwelcome
—the future untoward

Hard Times

Hard time is a guest
it carries apples in her bag
a cane around the waist
To get her apples she canes
unwelcome, she canes
in the end smiles erupt

Premium Member Just Testing

  
     Life is a series of tests
        armies of unwelcome guests

     wave after wave of insect pests ~
        From them a crown you must wrest

Premium Member The Wind Denied the Sun

  The wind denied the sun
     a gift, to caress soft cheeks... 

  Unwelcome gusts stiffened up their gaits, 
     through fearsome clouds sun no more peeked

Road Trip

We had been on the road for about thirteen hours by then
So the traffic that we saw was a most unwelcome sight
A turtle, on his own road trip, crawled across the highway

Premium Member Unwelcome Advice

I wouldn’t stand on the edge if I were you
You are not me, so you don’t have to.
Aren’t you afraid you will fall in and drown?
Never at all when you are not standing around.

Premium Member Internet Fog

Reset of the net and I oust this pest.
It hindered my reads - an unwelcome guest.
Interuptus cling!
No, can’t do a thing!
My holiday beast was a mad’ning pest.

Invasive species

As our human population increases 
we risk becoming an invasive species.
   We are spreading with speed
   like an unwelcome weed,
so native creatures are suffering decreases.

Funeral In the Rain

Rain…
            Silently drizzling…
At a funeral, an unwelcome guest.
            On a day so full of tears,
Maybe, even the skies are mourning Earth’s
                    “best”.

Premium Member Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde

primal feral instincts 
involuntarily stir
catching us off guard 
yet here they are
vibrations unwelcome 
which so appear 
where grow their roots
which we nurture

Unwelcome Dumb Wishfully

Ah...
bemused,
bountiful,
belligerents. 
Covering caskets,
cocooning, cringing cracks
doubting, desolate, dodgers; 
forever fishing, finding fist,
that will always swim before they hit.

Premium Member The Fight


A life of pain,
Attacking brutally;

Minimizing my gains.
Unwelcome? Absolutely.

Controlling me with fright?
Insisting that I take flight?

Taking away my fight?
Not in your life.

Premium Member Tired of Chocolate

Mom, sighing, says I'm tired of chocolate,
as if the favorite treat
of her eighty-nine years 
suddenly grew two heads,
becoming an unwelcome
familiar, tormenting her in old age.

Premium Member To See Viscerally

  
     The trees bent their boughs over the road
         shielding the drivers’ eyes

      From omens unwelcome in hellish skies
          through which blood-red entrails flowed

The Scab, Or For Donna

Covered thinly, by a bloody clot.
Unhealed.
Congealed.
Unwelcome obligations to eat, sleep, dress
fulfilled.
That your body is still here
is the best that can be said 
of this,
the first year.

Youth

Unwelcome, Youth embraces
Pasting emotions on faces
Naive to what life advancing will be
Nonchalant, spontaneous and carefree
Youth you will not age relay
Till your idle presence, is snatched away
