Premium MemberSimiles

You missed creative writing class today,
but don't worry about it.  It's okay.
Similes were on today's agenda,
and I took notes which I will lend ya. 

I'm happy to be of assistance.
Let me give you a "for instance".
The ocean is like the desert, friend,
Like my poems, they have no end.

Of course, the desert is a little hotter,
and the ocean has a lot more water.
Sailing makes you sick?  Okay, smartie,
riding on a camel ain't no party.

Both of these are the kinds of places 
where you get lost and leave no traces.
You just want to get home for dinner.
How's that for a simile beginner?


Premium MemberLife's Flow

Life mirrors the ocean's flow, skimming, turning, burning, and then churning below it thrusts and bursts forth impatiently, then spreads, searching and reaching for the unknown, befuddled, baffled, dazed by seeking, pursuing secret corners, returning to light our pathway before it dives to black recesses once again obscuring our dreams, pondering what it cannot resolve.

like seagulls skating 
on ocean waters
we navigate the currents
of deception
cascading jelly rocks of defeat
as we flow nile like
upward and onward
splashing into liberation…
water eagles sailing
surging waves…hip hopping
waters of freedom:
immerging...blossoming…

Premium MemberWho Are You

A tiny fish in vast ocean,
Desirous to swim at liberty,
Direction and depth beyond measure,
Delicate with shiny witty eyes is me,
My Upma to a fish stands real true.

I am a thunder in the sky that enlightens,
A fire in hearts that sets one ablaze,
A thought velocious that travels to infinity,
A strong emotion that never unwinds,
Upma is a simile to all and stands true.

A pent up anger that goes in tears,
An endurance of an intense torture,
A pang that rankles after the agony,
Entirely original though comparable,
My rights are absolutely infrangible,
A simile means Upma and that's me !!

A deep ocean under the blue,
And one in my heart.

The tides upsurging furious,and waters so high.
Just like vivacious thoughts In my mind.

With the only unconformity........

That plethora would go calm sometimes,
Unlike my spirit that would introspect at all times.

Because the ripples had pioneered the seashore, 
But my soul bewildered far from its destination.
