Wails and Fish

both love the sea
both  have the key

fish go up and down
wail go round and round
like is a dish

WAILS AND FISH

Ocean and Wails

theyer like remote
the flow
jump  up and down
in the water sounds
theyer big and round
always in motion
with long tails
you fime them as they swim
over the

hidden anguish wails

  dangling on throats of cold love...

Wails of a Fiery Soul

Flames sifts and seizes all, mankind’s desires burns through all 
All is exchanged for fire, for fire is the highest priced gold 
With a pearl within the flickering flames, still and wailing

Premium Member Winter Wails

searching for scant food
wolves foxes hares and bears roam ---
snow owls taunt hungry harp seals 

northern cardinals 
dig icebergs and peep within 
ice fish swiftly hides in holes

Wails of a Widow

I wonder what my dower would  be
if he had not chosen life
A constable -in bag would be
the share - halved  - without the choice

Would  hold memories I suppose
but those we shared 
so, bring me half he owned outright

Bring me secrets on a page
and space them - just so-
that such stuns at a time
could never awe me so

And in it - the design
for such a mystery
and show me confidence in a wife
which entitled him husbandry
