Spirited Poems

Spirited Dancer

A follow through the heart,
A star in the wings,
For I never know what this dance will bring,
Following goes through the floor, 
When your a dancer told to dance no more,
A turn just once follows the story to be told,
All the movements we faced have drawn us old,
All the criticism we take have to unfold,
The many

"SPIRITED GIBBERISH"

Curtained eyes droop, closing, cleansing, visions. Feathering sunlight. Splintering waked-vivid lashes dreaming of the day. Eyes concealing retreat from here, to there, to what once was, weightless pestilence, plumy blights. Wind-born, am I, are you, are they? They are all, that is, this day, until then. The here-after, the eternal, evermore, ceasing to end.

Premium MemberHigh Spirited Lass

Jacque was a high-spirited lass with a smile as wide as my room
You should ask her out everyone told Phil, a potential groom.
Phil had less energy than a gnat that was dying.
He could not imagine being around this lass even when trying.

I don’t think she’s for me he told the matchmaking folk.
He did not even

Xipe Totec

Born as an Eagle, I know how to ride the wind
Born during the time of the Deer, I long to roam
Born to learn patience, and remember who I am

I soar in hopes to bring connections between dots
I wander through nature to help find the lost keys
I sit in solitude needing less than I have

Here, I

Premium MemberI Danced With Them All

in streams of sunbeams inviting
my face to turn upwards
I am captured by intangible senses of
nutmeg and cinnamon communion-
candy-coated moments blossoming 
As the wizard of memories wakes a dream

speechless and smiling
standing and body turning with movement
I am drawn onto the shag carpet
of blades sprouting green lightheartedness
tickling the soles of my feet
unabashedly bare
naked on an aimless path

shuffling

Spirited Gestures

Cast restlessness about the wind,
That toss and empty leaves from trees,
The autumn season sees them thinned,
A tingling sense of breathing squeeze,
Be auburn reds hint golden scene,
Like royal robes and crowning queen.

Genteel polish a crystal shine,
Oblige passage involving wake,
Luster beckons whispering shrine,
A pristine call edges a lake,
Mindful ears recognize courses,
Coming

Premium MemberStrong-Spirited

I remember the words 
You said to me.
Told me I'm strong-spirited.
I couldn't stand up for myself,
But inside I'd always be
The two words you said to me.

I remember the words
You called me.
Told me all my insecurities.
I couldn't deny it even for me,
But within I'd always be
The two words someone said to me.

I remember the words
You said to

Premium MemberSpirited Radiant Dilemma-

~I reached beneath the Sun 
And I pulled out your heart 
Your spirit Soul radiance Stars 
Gleaming they burst 
And as I was traumatized 

LOOKING into your eyes 
You're soul was damaged 
Brightly shines your grace
As your spirit flies away
Spirited radiant dilemma
Righteously flown away in grace~

Spirited Wings

Pensively I ponder upon meanings that make me wonder 
Are we bodies with a soul or souls in a body?
yet why do we box it up in glorified golden invisible cages? 
making it feel like this is what it was meant to be? 

How can my soul be courageous when she is limited to ideologies?

Premium MemberSpirited Show

Grandpa and Grandma ghosts went jogging every night,
breezing past public parks gave everyone a fright!
they sprinted through darkness far away from the lights,
scaring life out of locals, when they came in sight!

They were both two happy ghosts who bore no one spite,
stuck to old routine, although no need to lose weight!
grandpa and grandma ghosts ran

Reindeer racks, huffing and chuffing - smokestacks

Spirited

As Santa was reading his list,
he noticed the children he'd missed -
he reached for a drink
(it helps him to think),
but sadly he always gets pissed...
