Skyline Poems

Midnight Skyline

In the city's darkened veil
Where shadows dance and dreams fail
I search for the ghosts of my past
Echoes of love that didn't last

The midnight skyline stretches wide
A canvas of stars, where hearts reside
I see the silhouettes of what's been
Memories etched, like the city's skin

In this urban wilderness, I roam
A stranger in the night, without a home
Yet,

Blind sight

What I see is what I know
And
What I know is what is seen
A blur a blob

A figure here and there
And an all-time show of purely blank pages that are filled with the ink that comes from...

The times where I touched the soft whispy wind and felt the burning sun that shone above in the skyline

Written: May 20, 2024

                 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Siren stunningly sprung a sanguine sway
sailboat sheaths spread, and storms swell 
splendid summer shorelines spike
summertime spousal serenade swept
scrumptious, sturdy sibyllic sweeps
silky shorelines settle scrawls
seawater subtly scrubs sewage
skirr is a spectacular sand stronghold
sapphire specks spruce seaside sand
shoreline

Premium MemberChicago Skyline will Disappear Tonight

Chicago skyline will be wiped off the belly of the earth tonight.
Take photos now, for you will never again see this sight.
Tourists took out their Brownies and snapped quickly away.
I like to frighten them sometimes, especially on a Friday.

Premium MemberMagenta Skyline Cluster

First blush fountain azimuth of hued rays
wet patio shrub basket in the haze
zealous heartland tower cry as life force
celebrate and  savour August rare days

Magenta skylines cluster silken clouds
blue ocean colour eyes that worship shrouds
a fancy surreal canvass so divine
it mesmerises jubilant bright crowds

Summer fun arcades stoke our dream world mind
gasps of red tint bliss

Nomadic Skyline

Silent voices
traveling through uncertain dreams!

Have you ever seen the sky
during the evening prayer?

The colors of the water lilies 
glowing in refection on that still pond water.

An open-ended story of an eternal time!
Where standstill time enchants the paintbrush strokes!

Time that does not define the everyday coffee mug

There are many more colors , yet to be born
in

Loveshine - Chapter 1 - High In the Skyline

In the sunshine, I’m feeling fine
In the sunshine, wish you mine
In the ocean, love’s beauty’s divine
Into the sea, our souls entwine
Our souls intertwine and flow so fine
Hold me throughout the night this time
Hold me tight tonight this wintertime
Forevermore…
True —
I still adore
You

Sunset horizons on the line
Your kisses illuminate me so fine
Love the way our skin collide

Premium MemberYou Are My Sunshine

First thing after awoke
I push out the window
To see the weather
To recieve my first ray of sunshine
Hoping it's a fine weather
White clouds blue sky
Reddish flowers
Soft wind
Bustle and rustle in the bushes 
Clear in view
The faraway mountain the faraway sea
The road to the end of the skyline
Meeting my dearest sunshine 
Before a strenuous day starts
As though

Premium MemberCrimson Skyline

Crimson skyline, daylight exhales
That we may feel contrast
Are we calm, as darkness assails
Knowing night too won’t last

As life hues thus renew
Our heart like morning dew
Fragrance of love does spew

To death resign
Crimson skyline

Skyline

I look, I stare and I wait
until your eyes meet my own
and my heartbeat skylines all the way up
you look away, I come back down
and I stay put expecting another hit
one more glimpse of blue
another taste
of sky.

Skyline Owl

Sweet serenity soars too
Kangaroos and owls perch together
You say I’m a cloud in the sky, drifting away
Lonely as a hawk and injured as a crow
I cure the disease of the awkward, stressful breeze
Nostalgic nightfall negotiates with me all night long
Encouraging effulgence shimmers in my noggin of negativity
Exquisiteness in its welcoming vibes of vitality and excellence
