Bayou Bliss
Uh huh Jambalaya Uh oh Crawdad gumbo That spice It’s Cajun nice Girl there With long blonde hair She’s flame and can’t be tamed Legs long Bayou beat song So nice Red beans and rice Real sweet With pepper heat Hot day Shrimp etouffee So real She makes me feel Her eyes Beautiful lies Much more Oh I adore Love taste Rush passion’s haste Salt sweet Such tender meat De-sire Swamp born fire Hunger Never sated Give me What she plated Eat till I’m full to burst Need her A voodoo curse ...

Premium Member Dweller of our heart
In the cave of our heart, God Himself dwells, as the light that lights all lights in this world. God’s language is love, which ego misspells, hoping we’ll be in winds of desires twirled. So dark lust or love, which one do we choose, determines either descent or ascent and by sidestepping each ego spawned ruse, our aura glows on granting joy...

The Wabi-Sabi of Tintern Abbey
Things bloom more beautiful when breaking down. The nave now ploughs through foams of flowering trees, a frozen caravel. Kissed by the breeze, the river surface suddenly seems to frown exquisitely. The apse’s jaunty crown of weeds above one (sightless) eye would please romantic poets. What was once a friese lies strewn about, a shaley shanty-town. We love whatever withers, atrophies. To see...

Sonnet 20
I have seen and heard of love in another land! A voice that made me and my mind feel at peace So I must make my words come from my heart and lips by taking a stand! The Destiny is a foreshadowing of our hearts coming to each other in a physical piece True love begins with communication and...

The Sea is Between Us
When I read your words, I feel a sense of peace! The words are pleasant and offer me a chance to feel love! Each time we speak, I feel your heart sharing with me a piece! The words are of magnificent bliss like the beauty of a dove! The sea is between us, but our hearts are connecting with...

Heart and Soul II
Who can remember the first time we felt the beat of our heart? Was it when we first kissed or had it broken? Possibly, it was when we were first told about the metaphorical love of the heart! Maybe it was when we used it as appreciation for one’s token! Whether it beats in the light or the rain! The...

Premium Member Dreams
Every wonder where they come from? I’m just glad that I still get some. Sometimes they’re pleasant and seem good, sometimes vague and misunderstood. At times they’re funny or bizarre, like riding on a shooting star. Often it seems they’re teaching me, past life lessons I didn’t see. Sometimes one seems like dejavu, in another time I was you. Then there was one, I wasn’t...

Premium Member Ego
Is it an eternal furnace of coal? Is it the murky dark night of my soul? Is it a fathomlessly hollow well? Is my ego as perilous as hell? Is it power and strength in their fullness? Is it existence in its absurdness? From this coffin, could I ever return? Herein, would I perpetually burn? Are days in ego unendingly nights? Does affliction, herein,...

Premium Member First Class Love
As I awoke, eyes still laden, dreaming of a pretty maiden. Laying quietly, still in my bed. It was real not just in my head. As the light streaked through the window, heart beating like a crescendo. I felt the joy of love at last, in this love, I’ll willingly bask. The sharing, caring, and daring. The glancing and trance like starring. The thought came...

todays sad sonnet
i dont believe in organized religion but i do believe in a supreme being and his opposite-destroying with a mind invasion wrapped up as compassion-his evil doing once there was a thing called tolerance where people could freely express different opinions now to do it today-is a game of chance as the minority holds-the pubic opinions if you dare step out of line they...

Premium Member Contours Cyhydedd Fer Sonnet
Contours make a fool of your eyes, shadows smile wearing a disguise. Split-second metamorphosis, too quick to ever reminisce. That alabaster train floating, the gal with her sweetheart doting. What was it I thought I just saw? Blink and miss nature in the raw. Paint-drops on the world around us, broken polish will cause a fuss. Shivering when they juxtapose, a mirage of silhouettes grows. With...

Premium Member The Energy Of Thought
All things are created from energy. Man wants to control the form it will be, say yes or no to creativity. There are no limits to a mind set free. A no can stop a possibility, stop the flow of energy completely. Man can prevent its best efficiency, stop production with a selfish decree. Just like steel can be a scalpel or sword, a...
