Premium Member Young Girl Near Window Reads a Book

The xanthous muse flies
New book scent and candle wax
Waltz of butterflies
Soft turns wonder at flashbacks
Waits for exciting climax

RENOIR’S REDFOX

Fall’s raven-black hat
highlights her redfox-wool locks —
the xanthous sun leaps
from the buttery bouquet
twinkling in the atmosphere

Footsteps To Ruin

Footsteps to Ruin
This spring makes my heart beat faster
went for a walk saw a verdant field sprinkled 
with xanthous flowers nodding 
in the mild zephyr
 I must take a photo.
Walked onto the field to find the prettiest ones
looked behind me, my heavy boots
had ruined lesser beauties

To a Lover

Xanthous vipers crumble and
Copulate on pallid bursts
Of violent ash and vapid sand
Drunken blows to swollen bones
Macabre and salty, bitter and grand

While wolven maws abuse brash lips
Gluttonous passion
Simmers on pendulum hips

Thrashing crests of poignant skin
Fevered, gasping, blissful sin

The Matryoshka marriage bound with plush roses and spiced tulips. Bride’s xanthous babushka, face-crowned in Matryoshka marriage bound. The groom peacocks with lively sound - a bottle dance with skillful kicks. The Matryoshka marriage bound with plush roses and spiced tulips. 2/4/2022

Premium Member Evergreen in Winter

blue pines sparkle
   under snowy gray sky
      on top of voluptuous hills

      the evergreen in Winter -
   their slant suggests skiers,
and worshippers

around a bonfire - the red house.

the main house in uplift
   on the port hill
      with conifer’s oceanic tint
      
       xanthous-blue streaks
   calming round moon
forest points to the stars

and the fluffy, wet snow, gently falling

A-Z

All around
birdies bicker
cats creep
doggies dig
every evening.
 
flowers flirting,
greening grass,
heather hedging
invading insects
juicy junipers.
 
keening kin
life lost,
mournful mending
nurture needed.
 
ominous omens,
praying penitent
quietly quaking
redemption rendered.
 
sweet scents
tease, tickle
unarm ugliness
vivacious violets
 
warmly witness
xeroxed xanthous.
yonder yawn
Zany zinnia!

Xanthous Yellow (Sapphic Stanza)

I fell in love amid the xanthous yellow
as clarions of daffodils awaken
in the gently warming winds of April's song
to the springtime air.

As soft as the breeze she took hold of my hand
and led me to places only lovers see,
draped in faded charms of cherry tree blossom
my heart came alive.

In her kiss, a tender moment of rebirth,
the empty soul I was stirred into being
my transition in her loving embrace
a heart’s destiny.
