Down by the rock pools
My hand gloved in your wrinkles
New discoveries
Starfish, crabs and mermaids purse,
Squirting sea anenomes.

Caring hands are soft, 
Embrace you can not forget
Hairs turning grayish
Wrinkles on the face are out
She loves, unconditional…

Packing clothes
in my suitcase,
patting them down lightly,
so they will fit
and not cause any wrinkles...

Fear of Attraction

Audacious through love
They build bridges beyond hope,
Crossing mortal fears
Of spirit and perfection,
Wrinkles and imperfection...

childhood shoulders
incline
toward one another
wrinkles
leave no place
for strangers
memories fill in
the gap of time

Gave you enough rope to hang yourself.
The rest's up to you.

May we be blessed to embrace getting older 
every wrinkle, every line…

that our smiles leave behind

was less in the folds

violins, please

you will find me in fields
of imaginary beauty

and this adagio
is reaching
it's crescendo

Premium Member Luxuriousness

Absence still wrinkles my hair
The not, the gone, the nowhere
A word to my ways
Luxuriousness pays
To future luminity
From surface insanity

time, that unrepentant thief
steals the roses from my cheeks
leaving wrinkles in their place
my only recourse is
to turn mirrors to the wall.

Yes you’re a bawdy quicksy girl,
Showing off sweet wrinkles and curl.
This is rather fine
Most of the time
But not at funerals, Grandma Merle!

Dancing eyes
dimpled cheeks
Open gaps ,missing teeth

Skipping a rock from shore.
I loved to watch the ripples form.
Placid wrinkles in midsummer moonlight.

Definition

my soul was born to it
yet it seeks 
from it
Its wrinkles
makes the stretch marks 
of my color
legitimate
fidelity defines
what our clasp
seals...

Catnap

Comforting sound
of rain dripping
from my roof

settling in late
afternoon puddles

bathing away
cares of the day

and the wrinkles in
my spirit

Premium Member Wait, lost?

Ozempic scores another win;
you’ll not lose your way home again.
With the wrinkles and flaps,
you can fashion a map,
and draw your way back with a pen.

Premium Member Let's Write

The wrinkles are in 
hesitation,
just like breathing
between strokes
in water

The tide is stronger 
than lungs,
as water is always
denser than air

Life At 50

Fifty years still here

wrinkles starting to appear 

strong extra mature.

fifty is just a number

afternoons I just slumber.

Who Won the Race

Elder's wrinkles--antique lace,
Taking selfies is a disgrace,
We're the sperm who won the race,
Staying positive is a grace,
Now put a smile on your face!
