Thousands of breaths I withdrew from my life’s account today; balance unknown!

Chupacabra came in the night
It gave everyone great fright
	Jack shouted a loud "Boo!”
	Chupacabra withdrew
and hid in shadow out of sight.

Confusion

Her old head 
Upon a pillow lie
I held her hand
She withdrew her
Hand
Looked 
Into a distant 
Past
And said 
I wish you were
Your brother

Premium Member Sugar High

A peanut butter cup smooth and sly
Said, “I’m tiny, I barely apply.”
But one quiet chew
And the ceiling withdrew
Leaving you waving back at the sky

Gesture

When my great self
Was taking birth,
Death, his month agape Was lurking at the door
But at my firm gesture
Weighing the strength of my arms
He  quietly  withdrew.


Gesture

When my great self
Was taking birth,
Death, his month agape Was 
lurking at the door.. 
But at my firm gesture
Weighing the strength of my arms
He quitely withdrew.

Premium Member The Tryst

There was that moment,
that glimpse of sadness come,
when silently she withdrew.
To savor in private thought;
a memory which only she knew.
Her secret rendezvous

Premium Member Finger In Her Nose

She sat with a finger in her nose
It did smell quite a lot like my prose
She got a few
Before she withdrew
Boogers came out striking a pose

You

I met you
Running one day
Wish I’d withdrew.

Instead, I’d stay
For twenty-five years
While you’d betray

And cause tears
But now, phew:
Dear heart disappears!

Depositoria - Banks, First

drop a penny in the slot, drop it in the hole
”penny saved, penny earned” also “good for soul”
my first piggy bank
was tough like a tank
until a hammer withdrew the whole

Pixie

Bigger and bigger the balloon he blew 
As he sat in comfort on the bamboo
          He laughed he singed 
          The guitar I stringed 
Then from the deep forest he withdrew

Premium Member Zen mode

drawn no more
to the game
of push and pull
we withdrew

the ebb and flow
of life’s tides
yet sometimes does
pull us in

be this as it may
wading in the waters
we do not get
our feet wet

What she did

She was charmed 
She was deceived.
She stuck it out 
She'd never leave.

She faded
She withdrew 
She found a life 
Outside of you 

She left
She survived 
She learned to love
She thrived.

Poor Noodles

Noodles Noodleman knew
The cookbook through and through
Noodles Noodleman knew
He must teach Sally too

Alas, Sally withdrew
Cooking she could not do
She then began to brood –
What could poor Noodles do…?

Premium Member Alone in a crowd

He, always alone in a crowd
she, always the centre of it;
they always arrived together
then part, he so quick disavowed
she traipsed to the men, in a flit;
he ever held on a tether.
And when they withdrew, he and she
there was no longer two, but three.

Gaze

The victims lined up
all of my internal organs
the shard of her 
plunged into each
leaving scores 
slowly dying
when cold entered 
my heart I 
grasped the blade
and withdrew 
along with it
and when her gaze
tickled the wound
she didn't find me there

Premium Member One Last Request

He asked to see the sunset one more time
Before the vesper bells that evening chime.
She opened wide the window facing West
Then propped him up…his ultimate request;
His eyes lit up then closed, and he lay still
The fading sun withdrew behind the hill.

Rapier

Rapier
slender,
steely, swiftly
plunged deeply
where no one had touched, to its hilt you thrust, 
embedded...
and then,
silently,
without a whisper,
finishing the deed,
withdrew the dripping blade
And left me to hemorrhage
our tourniquet friends to mend

Lady Winter

Where she walked no flowers bloomed
her only company the waning moon
The buds withdrew and shook with fright
even trees dropped their leaves when she came into sight

And as this woman, on nature's privacy encroaches 
the wildlife whispers “Lady Winter approaches”

Mirror of Secrets

His glass-stained eyes saw things he knew
That framed a past when years withdrew
From indiscretions of a town---
Mirrored in youth’s flashes, rundown
By secrets kept in a house where he loved and grew.

                                        I loved you more than life,
                                       but life had gotten too hard
                                      Withdrew back into my shell,
                                         now miss your soft smile

Hair

His mother would stroke his hair,
with gentle fingers.
It made him purr.

Fingers withdrew.
Time combed thinning years.

A one-night woman
took his head in her lap.
It was good to feel again
that love that fingers have
for hair.

In time, he settled down
with a lady,
who bred Afghans.

Premium Member He Took a Walk

He took a walk
to see the view.
They found a sock.
A rose, he threw.

Blue was the sky - 
the ocean, too.
He wondered why.
They found a shoe.

A bluff so high,
an eagle flew.
He could not fly.
His love was true.

A blood-red rose,
and then he knew,
and so time froze.
The tide withdrew.

A Wintry Chill Held Me To Your Bosom

A wintry chill held me to your bosom
The night drew praises from my lips
My hungry prayers did feed a fiery blossom
And the blast withdrew its icy fingertips.

As fancies came unhinged from fear
And diminished dark in its magnitude
My heart bulged with its own good cheer
And spilled its cries of gratitude

Premium Member An Inconvenient Truth

Pro-Palestinians shout
     What about?
   "How can you support
     Gaza's occupier?"

   Those who shout
     are rather dumb louts
   Gaza's occupier since 2007
     is (surprise!) ~ Hamas!

   Israel withdrew in 2005
     eighteen years ago
   Ever since then Gaza has been
     100 percent Palestinian
