Ever Smile At a Cloud

I shattered yesterday
All my parts gave up
And let go
Falling dust into the unwelcoming arms of the universe
People walking through me, over me
Looking down on me
No change in death


Starving Artist

Crouched in an alley
Cold unwelcoming cobblestone
Raindrops keep him half awake
Stayed up all night sipping coffee
Finishing touches to canvass of
Bluebird skies and sailing ships
Those holding umbrellas pass by
Look - and move on through
November's leaded skies...

Premium Member Bitter With The Sweet



                           bitter

                 acerbic, unpleasant

     sneering, alarming, unwelcoming

acidulent, caustic, saccharine, confection

       tasting, appreciating, fancying

                     pleasing, tasty

                         sweet

Colours

Red,
The summer sky is red,
scarlet ,
furious as my fathers face 
after another one for the road 

Blue,
the sea is blue,
shiny, shimmering and cold, 
my mother,  bejewelled, always shimmered 
but to me she was cold

Black,
The night is black, 
unwelcoming, 
all consuming 
turn that light out and stop your crying 
black

Don'T Trust the Dark

Darkness is a mystery,
Cold and Unwelcoming,
Giving us a fright,
Monsters lurk within,
Created and fed our kin,
Grabbing at feet that dangle off the bed,
It is the unknown,
A scary lack of light,
Hiding metaphorical creatures,
Engulfing our source of sight,
We fear the unknown,
What can never be shown,
Darkness is but a mystery,
An eternal vision of death.


Tornados

Uncontrolable to the unwelcoming of the nature,
tearing through the beauty as an unwanted wager.
feeling its pain as it rips on through,
looking at everything that it could do.
tasting its hatred that it has for the world,
watching everything as it is being hurled.
Looking into tornados eyes,
woundering its fears.
touching tornados heart,
as it has done for many years.

Cold
                             degrees, temperatures 
                              crispy,  glacially,  wintry
                        Unwelcoming temps and emotions
                           Roasting,  scorching,  searing
                                     Balmy,  sunny 
                                              Hot

The Clearing

Pulling myself from the brush
thorn ripping tictures in skin and cloth
a mumble from the darkening clouds
whisper traces of slipping rain
before me stood a battered domain
its windowed eyes
unwelcoming and barren
turning the path behind me swallowed
by decaying leaf fingertips
once again surveying the hovel before me
my eyes darting between shade and light
hoping for a trace of life

One

It only takes one. 
One kiss, one grab, or one touch. 
An unwelcoming rush of fear courses through your body. 
A searing memory forever stuck with you. 
A feeling brought by one whose remorses are few. 
One thrust into my temple and I am no longer sound. 
You've burned yourself a place in my heart and that I'll never be able to undo. 
One kiss, one touch and another tear shed. 
I'll never be able to remove these thoughts of dread.

Premium Member Tied To Tradition

They pierce the unwelcoming night,
perserving eyes that receive nothing 
but an unwholesome darkness,
hot accelerated breath scorches the
freezing air, as it penetrates
in entirety her raffish body while a 
shivering anatomy provokes an age
of innocence, yet a stark awareness
of life’s tribulations, as she tucks in
her scarf, fastens her top button
before impetuously walking off into
the shadows to confront her next trick.
