Premium MemberAs He Slumbers

He sleeps like a koala from seven to eleven.
While I'm here simply left waiting and wondering just when
Is the specific time that I can even speak to him again.

shy pink faerie slumbers
baby badgers lying on her dress
guarded by spotted fawn and twin bunnies
puffy lavender mushroom cluster stands guard
gorgeous turquoise sky full of diamonds smiles

She Slumbers

There she slumbers, 
Under the grey skies, 
Knitting her black and whites, 
Into a tune 
or 
Call it a remedy,
Medicine for subliminal tragedies, 
She is not gentle, 
but fierce, 
Painting her masterpiece 
As she rehearse, 
Strength is the synonym, 
Risking on the surface, 
The fear of being uncontained, 
The pain endured Moment by moment, 
To

AWAKENING SLUMBERS

reflect
stark constraints
  highlight
the
stillness
 a contemplation
    a synthesis
evolving
   silhouetted
 vaguely
 transcending
experience
   of reality

 a repetitive rhythm
to emphasis
   the options
      in a poetic
   dimension

scintillating 
giving
    stark relief
saturated
  & allusive
oblique in
 transition
to influence
 the ascendant

 impetuous
interplay
   devolved by the
organic
slight& aslant

THIS IS AN OPEN(organic) FORM VERSE without grammatical symbols the ' open' relies upon 'the one breath limitation' & so inherently requires the 'reader' (reciter) to input and respond thus making the form a two way interplay and often a unique interpretation by the enigma so derived

Lights & Numbers
David J Walker

When he said
Think ahead
I think he was 
Thinking of numbers

What I heard
(Silly nerd)
Was seamless dreams
In vivid colors of
Visions in
Slumbers

As the night 
	Lumbers 
alone
Into 
	Tomorrow
Morning

When numbers are 
Subtracted from
The meaning of dreams

And the deep sleep of
dreams is over

Premium MemberElizabeth Slumbers

Jazz piano scale skip quick notes implore me
Siphon symphony verve blurred by saxophone sass
Floated lilly pad leap frog spring legged surety
Splats on brass buttoned soldiers dedicated amass


Bulbous glass swirl burgundy grape stem bitter 
Absorbs oak barrel sentiment, forested persuasion 
Ace praise expires, a swiftly swallowed splinter
Comical dive antics of cork fragmenting abrasion


Dissolving Elizabeth, shabbily written

Premium MemberWhen Dearest Muse Slumbers

If is posted such a popular number
  (as 'Time for a Break')
when dearest muse slumbers
  I may try something to numb her
    ~ My conscience unencumbered...

Of course, now she's fully awake
  I can no longer be a snowflake
She's back from her resort on the lake

Premium MemberWhere My Angel Slumbers

In the ruins of a castle,

Lives a dark and dusty love,

A single white feather,

Has fallen from above.


The dawn it lights his footsteps,

Stardust across the floor,

The single white feather,

It lies there no more.


The dawn has surrendered,

And dusk has won the fight,

His angel she now slumbers,

In his arms tonight.

Corona Or God Who Is Great

CORONA OR GOD WHO IS GREAT

Oh! Are there you dear God, hiding in the skies
Where are you now and where were you then?
Really do you want kill people, but all say you are loving one,
I slowly dragging away from you an empty belief from the ore
Why should I think about you when you making me

Premium MemberPoesie Slumbers

poesie slumbers
quietly breathing
swathed in white noise 
deep in reverie

poesie trances
in an English garden
picture windows
take after an Anglian sky

poesie rolls over
on freshly cut grass 
hedged in by Japanese Quince
the color of wild things waking

poesie sighs deeply
someone's pestering
a spiny shrub grows taller
a pond furthermore darkens

poesie tosses and turns
throws back the covers
lavender makes its entrance
into a parasoled cottage

Premium MemberBreeze Woman Slumbers

The moonlit grass was metaphorically mystic in its cool, methodical, grandiose offerings of solace to the gentle breeze-woman who could not abide the ruin of her evermore. 
Softly, silently, without any hesitation, she laid her burden down on the caring grass bosom illuminated by the entangled mono-speak of the faeries.
Butterflies surrounded her, illuminating her starlit

Premium MemberReality Slumbers

Saffron sunbeams color chiffon
ribbons entangled in the clouds.
And purple lilacs scent the air;
wafting delicious aromas.

As orange tints the rim of Earth;
cinnamon skies showcase shy stars.
And when Twilight shifts into Dusk,
darkness descends, devouring day.

Cotton candy pink shields the sun
behind a bright magenta glow.
And a rising Moon's golden hue;
gilds alabaster clouds below.

Night dons a cloak of tattered

I live for blue foggy days
Where the birds sleep in numbers
When the world's in a haze
And humanity slumbers
