A Moment's Wisp

I felt the Sun breathe it's life 
as you became 
revealed inside a dream of golden fire
touching in a rainbow hue of colors 
resting on a dying mist
living but 
a moment's wisp.

Premium Member a wisp of a thing

She came gliding in on her dragonfly steed.
Lovely and lithe, delightful indeed.
A wisp of a thing, a tiny little light might.
A pixie, a faerie, a pretty sight on this night.

Premium Member That Wisp of a Girl

  That wisp of a girl 
    claims she’s your daughter

  How can she be
    if you ain’t taught her

  Right from wrong when it comes to men 
    ~ tell her the tale of her mother then

Premium Member Will O the Wisp

The opponent manoeuvres
attempting to mentally encircle 
His tactics prove to be futile
for we are a vibrational twinkle

His arms reach out to strangle
whilst ours open in embrace
As a bliss mist we are immune
while he runs his own race

Premium Member wondering about a wisp

a wisp floated down
landing in the meadow bright
did faeries get it?

will they sew it into a pillow?
use it for a faerie blouse?
two dwarfs laugh.

I despise dwarfs.
they are thoughtless mind readers and bullies.
They tease me with mean finger gestures.

Being an adult
I stick out my tongue.


Premium Member Wisp of the Chill

soft vanilla nights

      tasting pink strawberry tips...

             rainbow sprinkles pop



a wisp of the chill

         sweet melon sprigs twist and shout...

                   snow cones dance around!

Wisp

My wind cries susan
Hoping for response
The sea holds its wave a little longer
Sweetest strawberries
That burst within your mouth
Savoured 
to hold onto the taste
Breeze nestles in her hair too long
love songs forever silenced
and multitudes of words
hang themselves
lifeless in disgrace
unable to capture that face
And eyes so rare
but cursed to never look upon themselves
Light radiates her
and the wind cries susan

Wish Upon a Dandelion Wisp

my thoughts adrift
endless on the horizon's edge
lingering in the warmth
of this day

you stand beneath
the folds of eyes
awake in dreams

i tremble amidst
the effortless breath of wind
tenderly stroking me
with the torridity
of a  midday sigh

wiping dry
the mist that falls
from lonely eyes

my tears alight
on the feathery puffs
of the last dandelion 

i whisper softly
lips against its folds
with a kiss
it drifts
alone

A Wisp of Smoke

And there I was...
a cigarette in hand
It was all I could hold.
You came to me
spoke of things
so small.
I allowed them in.
I could take the littleness of it all.
Nothing larger than my breath.
My vessel was full,
full of bigger things.
More than you could ever hold in your empty heart.
Empty, it was still full of your foolishness.
But even so
a wisp of smoke
can fill the void
again, 
tainted air
is full of despair
and I choke!
