Courage, and a Shudder
A ship requires a captain, and a rudder
uncharted seas - courage, and a shudder
Picking up speed, egos unchecked
tempt fate, shipwreck

I Shudder
“Our time in this world is limited. We all have to die.
But man, who is fragile wishes- it is not now but later” ~ By Poet
Death’s thunderous call I hear.
See death’s messenger at my door.
With icy grip, he is coming to prey.
Am I nearing my journey’s end?
I don’t want to go with all

Quiver
“Quiver”--how soft it glides ‘tween lips and teeth,
It almost feels like breathing in a wreath;
I can’t find words that can sound as tender
Except, possibly, “flower” and “whisper.”
“Quiver”--how opposite the image it brings:
Both unpleasant and delightful feelings;
Like a sore bee sting that gives the shudder,
Or a lover’s touch that makes one shiver.
A pretty thing makes

Shudder, Tremble, Then, Now
A shudder, a tremble,
hearing a screech.
Was it that chalk again -
on that board or this wall?
We tend to hear things
at the strangest of times:
midnight, noon, three-seventeen.
But seven minutes to ten?
Hmm. That's an odd time.
It may come again tomorrow.
But what is weird is that
it will come yesterday.
Yet I knew nothing of that till today.
We have the

Shudder
A soft thump
then a skull cracking reverberation.
A sticky smear
as a crushed form slides away.
A feather flutters fast on the windscreen,
stark between the bright fist
of glass and light.
For an instant death shudders
just as much as life.
Windscreen wipers will not
wipe away the memory.

Without Shudder Or Sound
I remember the time, I remember the place. I remember his eyes, I remember his face.
That’s what he said to me watching the leaves fall from the trees. In the peace of the freedom in this tranquil green place.
The leaves fall from the trees and swirl to the ground. The air or the gentle autumn

One Dusty Day
The day my life went comotose..!!
I walked and walked and walked..
amidst the vehicles,
forgetting myself,lost in thoughts,
manipulating my mind,
immersing my whole body into heated dust
that was breezing around me..And,
suddenly my heart felt the pain, began
to shudder hopelessly and felt
as though "I am going to collapse"
due to extreme fatigue..

The 12 Spirit Witches of Shudder View Mist
THE 12 SPIRIT WITCHES OF SHUDDER VIEW MIST 2019/01/20
Was the address given to us, and was betwixt
Tall trees whose branch’s looked like shadows
Lightening made them look like monsters affixed,
Hanging dead, and the immediate thunder chose
To shriek and a scream, a sound all in one
Wave after wave like a machine gun!
Tim spotted the manor,

Leave the Shudder In Love
Leave the shudder,leave the agony.
Do not let love get hurt.
Leave the shudder, leave the agony.
True love you does not lie then.
Do you love then you open up.
Look,you are afraid not to leave us.
Leave the jitter,learn to fight.
Do love to tell us so I love you.
Leave the shudder, leave the agony.
Do not let love get hurt.

Shudder
I am Monday on a Friday,
Who knew the stars aligned to sing us through the pangs of life and eternity?
A thing called life in a language in a dialect that is as probable and functional as the click of the tongue of the Kung Bushmen.
Who knew time could exist as un-linear as Einstein spryly suggested
There

I Shudder
I am not what I used to be.
Becaise you changed something.
Something that makes me a different person.
Today.
Last night,I saw you again sitting on a tree.
Your eyes filled with fear and sadness.
Sadness that made me emphatic again.
You held my hand as those cold fingers lingered around my waist.
I shudder..
I asked what are you doing here.
But you

Scenes perform in mind
As an antique movie play
Stir dormant feelings
Shivering skin with intense
