Premium Member I never had a wish list

I never had a wish list
understanding life was hard
expecting no perks or prizes

childhood dreams of fame
tossed into reality gutter
keen on country living


Wish List

I want to experience freedom like I have no masters
to experience life like time doesn't exist
to live humbly and die gracefully
to accept who I am and be proud
to never cry out loud

Every little simple minute 
Seems so much more.
As though it has designs
Within it present from before
When we were tiny dots our
Selves, BEARLY in existence
Favored on the wish list.

Happy knows
How joy grows


Joy moves grace
On your face


Live your fest
As your best


Joy prompts wit
Where love fits


Happy shows
How cheer flows


In a gist

Pranks

not just any jokes;
but a humorous prank,
in dirty deeds and actions.
a banana peel for slipping,
a whoopie cushion for surprising.
series of sarcasms for icebreakers,
at last, untold execution of tickling for random giggles.
and maybe a secret diss in your wish list.

Words curl now cite
To linger writes


Thought in swift plot
Now moves sweet spot


Pain plants a seed
To honour need


Poise in sure voice
Sparks a stern choice


Diary notes here
Sparkles fond cheer


In a crisp gist
My own wish list

Know this:
Choice funds bliss
That’s the gist
In wish list


Know well:
Love now tells
What heart dwells
Moves life’s spell

Zest works trend
Watch how grand
Soul strokes when


Know mime:
In good time
Such fine rhymes
Where grace chimes

Premium Member Passions Confession Who's and I -

If pain was on my wish list what would a profit mean to gain a passion was my confession What would it be? So detained if love was an interest What I often think of how would I be interested If there were no one to love Whose am I?

I Let You Raise Me

I Let You Raise Me 

Oopsey daisies!
I let you raise me,
And I ended up 
Falling in love.

Minded my business;
You're not on my wish list,
But you were wrapped,
And I opened you up.

You are my present, my future,
And battles of my heart you conquered.
As a gift, All I want....
Is your sweetness
And the inevitable love unknown.

Hope dies last

Wish list grows

Yule lads fast


Cash and cards

Smash and grab

Just one guard


Shots and death

Aims find blood

Cross fires death

Premium Member Can I Also Have

?Dear Santa; for my wish list I would really love a bike- If it's not too much trouble Can I also have a kite?' 'I would like a new computer With games and an Ipod phone. I would also like a train set With tracks to fill my home.' 'But Mummy and Daddy are very poor Not much money they said- So if you cannot manage the above Can I have peace on Earth instead?'

To Do List '23

Quieten the mind 
dile it down a notch 
drown those tears  
neglect all fears 
speak into existence 
be as loud as the excuses
fight for justice 
fight for peace,
grant your organs sexual liberty.
Dive in blue waters,
oceans sing songs of tranquility.
Dream, your big dreams 
Live, purposefully.

Premium Member Wish List of the Elderly

Born alone,
A lonely life,
Perhaps
Lonely at death
despite the family.
Cost of living is so high 
That you are loved
For what you can give
Not for what 
you might take.
My wish list
Does not include 
Items of physical 
pleasures, 
but such things
As love, laughter
and affection.
I wipe the mist
On the window
Bare hand
To see outside.
Waiting alone, 
For my children
To come home 
for christmas!

Wish List

a love 
that's tempered
soft and gentle
sturdy as gravity
transcendental
a love 
vast as the ocean
always secure
even in draught
will endure
a love
like music
dissonant or in tune
floating through the sky
like a hot air balloon  
a love
rooted garden
natural art
tended with care
hope and heart

but most importantly

a love
with a voice
speaking kind words
even in loneliness 
a love 
always heard.

Premium Member Impasse

Words greet the wind
From thoughts unseen


Work now conspire
To flesh attire


Worth waits for time
To usher chimes


Wise words now sum
What soul becomes


Will a wish list
With love as gist


Wine and dine here
Let faith fling cheer


Look beyond things
For love now sings


Weather impasse
Days turn to dust


Gone with the wind
All but within

Premium Member Far Horizon

First intent for a Ballad poem.

As the sight get lost in the horizon 
Unfulfilled dreams wither within
Hoping for a better outcome next day.

Months, years, even decades had passed
Leaving behind a trail of untold memories
Changing the page for a promising future.

Endure with strength uneasy moments
Chase with poise each day your wish list
Closing the year with a new you.

Feel the gist
Brief wish list


Love seeds start
Hope bears art


Faith is good
Watch each mood


Joy looks nice
Touch smells spice


Cheer lifts up
Full tea cup


Choice frames voice
Tints crisp poise


Live deep zest
Fest works jest


Spark due chimes
Tryst greets rhyme


Line by line
Awe feels fine


Just be kind
As touch binds


Speak of peace
In fond ease

In Hope

i crave in hope
for things unexpecting
far from the norm
merged in my dreams

who said fantasies were felonies
for then i would have received a death penalty
take my wish list and see for yourself
yes, i know what you want to tell me
"Wild dreams can make you go mad."

but all i feel
is the strength within
a candle lit eternally
a bond of life to fulfill

there's one thing i know
the candle shall never go off
for that strength in heart
shall soar me onwards

Christmas gifts - 2

Knowing the truth of Christmas gifts’ what’s what,
He tells Santa, I’ve nothing what so sought,
Forget all my wish list, 
Let me now clear some mist:
I’ll be thankful, whatso you give, or not.

Poet’s note: This is a sequel to ‘Christmas gifts’. Realizing the futility of hoping to get things from his wish list, Dennis has this to say to old Santa when his turn came. No need to say, Santa was nonplussed.

Premium Member A Soul's Wish List

I would wish for you
the petals of a rose
with gilded thorns.
Roots to rival the dandelion,
deep and undeterred.
A soft yellow joy of spring Jonquils.
The tenacity of a vine
Searching
for the unknown.
A gentle purring
of a distant kitten
content in its moment.
The growl
of a restrained puppy
unsure of its limits.
The faith of a mother Robin
in the fledgling’s ability.
Enough doubt
to make you cautious.
Sufficient wisdom
to make you question
all doubt.
