Short Vapour Poems

A
vapour
that appears-
and imprints my
life....

His sweet watermelon vapour
Is a scent I will always savour....

Read More

Thundering across the sky, storm clouds joust to oust the sun....

The words get trapped here
In the tendrils of vapour
from my cup of tea...

A comet appears in our solar system

From whence came this traveller...

The blood boils and froths 
Vapour sears; scarred and worn
Shame left, pain chronic...

Below
twin vapour trails
on sky November blue-
Canada geese in formation-
head south....

Read More

thought rested silence
not quite absolute stillness 
senses manifest

What wild nothingness?
...Frost from hats, waves, roars, blank breeze
The ink speaks, soundless......

old mansion crate grape misery trees
monkey puzzle capture dew mine
vapour leaves dust school disco keys...

Read More

Images caught on paper
Reflections of the past
Memories that would have turned to vapour
Reminds of life’s contrast...

Read More

Like mahogany, 
I am no longer free 
to create.  Inch-by-inch 
the square above steals fire -
now gold dust turns to vapour....

Learnt to Read

I learnt how to 
read the 
words here, there, and 
everywhere and 
too many others to 
count in
vapour form.

Chill, steaming vapour;
Silence over pale water;
Above the east gate...
Thin ribbons in the pink
 Light.
I dip oars...and silence 
  Breaks....

aloft as
          vapour

    to the abode

to
participate
with
    charm
        once forgotten...

Vapour
                       a moist
                     Gathering,spreading
                    In a large field
                          fog...

A five minute fad
or one week wonder;
fame for a quarter of an hour...
Fleeting images..
shadows in the sun,
vapour of the morning dew..
.
Petals of a flower...

If you are cloud ; she is rain, 
If you are ocean; she is sun.

Cottony vapour fluffs, 
Caravan shape-shifting, 
Can be stratus, nimbus, 
cumulus or cirrus, 
Cover the blue with white, 
Cranky storms turn them black;
Chariot of the Lord.

Rather than but like
graffiti it is

this life, this love
out there yet hidden

in the art form
out of mind

caricatured remnants
of moments past

the sniff of glue, enamel vapour
the splatter of it

on the backdrop of imagination
reality forms

Like Graffiti...

My scribbles scrammbled on a tatty bit of paper
I vomit ideas
           Before they vapour 
They appear inedible mountains of mess
     I churn and turn the illegible scribbles to words that truly bless

I am a dyslexic writer - Published Poem in Forgotten Letters...

this 
liminal
           utopia
a vapid
         vapour
implodes
          before our
eyes:

we stand 
            fixated
in gravitas,
             the sublime
in retreat,
        our mood blunt:
in fugitive mode
we clutch at hope
naked
      in our essence...

Beholder, vapour
witnesses stupor.
Magnetism form spears;
Tamas disappears.

Thus feeling complete,
soul negates defeat,
for save bliss throbs dear,
there is no one here.
