Something Softer
• Name something softer than a human's lips
• Or your partner's skin against yours
• How about something much more comfy?
• Like their hands resting on your hips

The Softer Side of Jack
Everyone really knows me
As always being loopy and light
Although I can be serious at times
Silliness always wins the fight
It's really only quite recently
My happy side has become king
I used to get quite emotional
At the tiniest little thing
Which one would I rather be
A tiny wee bit of both
The romantic side is warming
But I like my happy

Softer Than the Pale of Dawn
Morning was born, softer than the pale of dawn
Glints of sunlight gleamed from pastel skies,
In my eyes, life was a beautiful canvas
filled with wondrous hues from the palette
held in the glorious hand of the Master Artist.

Softer Emotion
The sea, flows with rhythmic motion.
It's movement, gentle and calm.
An expression of softer emotion,
languid as a swaying palm.
The waves, with barely a crest,
ripple and drift along the shore.
Touching the sand, with a caress,
then leisurely recede, nothing more.
The ocean reflects, the gray of the sky,
into the distant horizon, fading away.
Above, the seagulls, soar so high.
Their cries

Tears Softer Than Shadows
I stood there in the black of night
My gaze cast towards the sky;
O'glorious luna, so beautiful you were this Halloween
I stood there
paralyzed,
enchanted
My memories paint a cautionary tale;
one forever stained in blood
Beneath luna's pale glow, we met as vampires do
Both alive in our coffins
Feasting in the dead of night,
your eyes gleaming with

Poetry For a Softer Spring
Some syllables strewn along paths in rows,
spent images cast aside where wisdom grows.
In ruffled rubble a glean glints in tones -
missed stars settled amidst sparkling stones.

Make the Gentle Softer
I feel my fingertips
pierce my skin
as i try to rip my head in half
Haves or stomach knot
Grit my teeth
until i taste clot
Oh words take my dark words to
a place of light
make the gentle softer
Lose within m l ys in elf e
Showing self that is not mine

A Softer Silk She Came
*****This poem inspired me to show or make sentient as possible a woman of special appeal, which provided an apt challenge of my poetic Powers. Such words as 'countenance opulent' 'L'Amour and debonair' and the rhyming structure creates the 'magic third' as Bach said of music; this exists throughout much of my works. I am

Softer Voice
I have to remind myself to be kind –
I wish it came more natural
Too easy to be mean with my feelings unseen
Like some ferocious animal
Dr. Jekyll could have elected
Not to turn into Mr. Hyde
It’s a matter of choice
And the softer voice
Is the one must be your guide
I have to relate to the things that I

Innocent and Softer Time
meadow larks melodic songs
uplift the most hardened hearts
reminding us of grandmothers
hollyhocks, and bleeding hearts
an innocent and softer time.

A Softer Rhyme
Are the feelings soft
but the words rock hard
Turning emotion into anger
or worse
Are those wishes pure
when the ink goes down
Are the letters aligned
or off course
Are the feelings soft
but the sentences vile
When frustration takes over
your rhyme
Is the Muse trying to whisper
as you shout

Softer Than Tenderness By Osip Mandelstam
Softer than tenderness
your pretty face,
More white than white, of course,
your little hand,
It's far from world your walls
and native land,
It's unavoidable
your sweety bliss.
From sweety bliss, of course,
you are so sad,
And fingers these are warm,
they are so warm,
And quiet sound and tone,
speeches are unworn,
And distant eyes of yours
within my head.
P.S. This is my translation of poem by
