I was looking around the room and you were there.
I saw a stranger with silver hair.
I just wanted to know your name.
Maybe our age might be the same.
I’m not sure if I have the courage to ask you out on a date?
With city lights, we could walk hand in...

sliver of silver
she had attempted to colour in outside of the box
now the silver lining dangled from a broken necklace
suffocated her aspirations oozed discontent and sorrow
the shine had come off and no amount of polish would
erase smudges and impurity nor restore a once lucid soul
reflections tore at her heart and strangled in darkness
precious metal now a neck...

Is 30 Silver Coins All I'm WorthIs 30 Silver Coins All I’m Worth?
Is money all you want?
Don’t walk away from the cross.
What is 30 coins worth?
What am I worth to you?
I gave you life.
You were betrayed with a lie.
You surrendered yourself to the world.
I was handed over for just 30 shekels.
As a...

MemoriesA shimmering thread binds thoughts together
Of moments of joy and sorrow
With a spring in our steps and a hope anew
Is the day tomorrow
The past is indeed a cherished treasure
As good ,memories fruit prevails and bitterness quelled
By the pen of positivity dispelled
Relishing a marvel indeed
With an inspiration for future good deeds
to the almighty...

Behind the GreyI'm searching the skies for a ray of light,
But all I find are thick clouds creating night.
I believe there is a silver lining behind the grey,
I wish I could find it today.
I breathe the air and it feels thin,
I need to fight though it seems impossible to win.
Even in the dark I need to hold...

Pawn Shop
It sat with double doors propped open
inviting the poor, the sad, the broken
Its dusty shelves stuffed and sated
with objects – some fresh, others dated
I carried my dreams with heavy arms
formerly dazzling magical charms
Now in tattered cardboard boxes
a life in unresolved paradoxes
Prized possessions, cherished memories
adored as luxurious shiny accessories
Their worth besmirched and unfamiliar
traded for coins of...

the silver teaspoonstwo silver spoons,
two completely different people
tied together by children, marriage,
divorce
they shared a home
two decades of life
and then nothing
just children; bound by blood,
broken by each other
they’re in the same room, fingers brushing as they pass each other banners to stick on the walls
i was the first born

Moon Memento - Silver Dust Tales
Written: April 14, 2025, for contest Sponsored by: Suzette Richards
***********************************
In shimmering twilight, a memento on the moon lies quiet,
a story etched in silver dust, evokes the wanderer of the past.
Moon serenity is countless, and heart beats bear sureness.
Astral footsteps foster starlight, tracks of kismet smite.
Human creation will grow, even as infernal...

The Sole Sky Surfer"Let the moon teach you the art of being beautiful and lonely at the same
time.” ~Anand Thakur
O, the night traveler
you are the beacon for
the distressed who are
dwelling in darkness.
As the knight of the night,
you ride upon your white steed
wearing a silver armor
for those hopeless lovelorn.
You are the afterglow of the sun
when it retires for...

Beauty’s BeastHanging hope on garden roses
Licking love from silver spoons
On the run in tundras frozen
Throwing howls at the moon
No true way to leave the castle
Though you came here on your own
Sometimes you are a prisoner
Sometimes you’re on the throne
Though his rugged mange offends you
His venom’s nothing new
Still he keeps...

After Fresh Silver RaindropsColors now shimmer in golden, backlit mist
where blue hydrangeas and red roses coexist
Purples and oranges adore a fresh morning.
Flighty trouble has, at last, gone away, riled
Since the mellow hour, my sunshine smiled
The green and pink birds are finally soaring!
Naturally, nature must love beauty so much
To shower flowers with silver, gold and such
Does pearly dew, gladden...

When you are not fed love on a silver spoon you learn to lick it off knivesA silver spoon or a knife
They are both made out of metal
One showed strife
The other one disguise as a skettle
The edges are sharp, the wounds are real
But they don’t hurt as much as feeling unlovable
“I’ll do anything for you “ is all i want to hear
It got me doing the unthinkable
I would...

Hitler's Silver AcademicsWhen the trust busts
in to your village
Driving the lunatics
in shackles
Times must be goin'
out of print
Old Hearst's Castle
isn't any good for
climbing
Seeing the waves of
rocket fuel
reminds the Church epiphany
that 8th grade is over
So the western fleet
sends out a graduate team
And recruits for the labor wards
Used to come by the name
of Montgomery
Seas are Charted for a Reason My...
