Stars Poems

Enamored in adulation of your whispering night
I adore charming moonlit sky, arousing doting vibes,
Seducing the peeking stars on incandescent arc
Beholden to romantic flame blazing in your eyes,

Wooing constellations twinkling in an astral dance
Amid outburst of meteor storms, celestial sparks
Knowing that...Read More

We got roads with no cars
all the tourists depart
it’s the one day a year that this city is ours
we eat til we’re full up fall asleep and we fart
as Milsom Street sits bright 
lights turned on by stars 
in Twerton...Read More

E-very star above
I-s amazingly twinkling, 
V-iewed by the gazers.

Poems are not the stars of the night sky
Poems are not flowers of the garden
Poems are not swimming fishes of pond
Poems are not aimless walking pathways
Poems are not the smiling of beauty
Poems are not the note of fall in love

Robins wear their hearts upon the breast
In perfect visions of loveliness 
Bobbin' along to their own sweet chirps
In melodious garden concerts.

Robins make themselves permanent guests
In trees to call home and build a nest
Their love a secret of your garden
Secrets certain...Read More

WINTER CAVE

In the dark, hearken to the swooshing trees.
Everything varies in the ebon-light.
Squirrels and foxes do not collaborate.
The swirl of red fur and the howl of coyotes
like dancing of the Northern lights.
Artificial illumination inside the Winter cave.
Television-dusk relaxes the limbs
and...Read More

Traipsing o'er rare daffodil dawn,
Honeysuckle trails a passage forlorn,
Passionate filters pacified carnation yon,
Shelter rose prickly poised stem-filled thorn.

Blues hover facing angry clouds,
Sunrise sprung anew yellows brighten,
Sunset made reds to blazon shade crowds,
Grey dusk looms whilst a stripped eve heighten.

Clouds brim...Read More

Stone Cathedrals of Glenwood Canyon

Stone cathedral spires rise sharply from freely flowing waters -
 Birthing renewal through eternity’s eyes -
Lifting up to the eternal
 A psalm, a canticle, to serenade the seasons,
  Singing celebration in Heaven’s waiting ear;,
Reaching down...Read More

Lugosi lays, Chaney scares, creeps the dusk,
Price fades, Karloff, clomps, all ashes and dust,
Past-timed preferred actors all,
Scary times, hair raised, jaws fall,
Greats, long unseen, memories hold, hearts crush.

Everything is 'normal' - the balance has shifted,
even lady footballers have suddenly become gifted,
electric cars and now public trips to the stars,
it's said that certain sexual people may be banned from bars.

I'm not smoking in Bhutan but vaping in Uzbekistan,

“A person often meets his destiny on the road he took to avoid it.” – Jean de La Fontaine
  
Trials amid tribulation
failures, gradual adaptations
life a series of grafts
some taking, others left for dead
  
a simple weave
making their way...Read More

POEM " A STRANGE ADVANCE " by martin gedge

Worlds away we siege the day to brave a new sunrise

an orbit in this atmosphere with automatic sighs

a love that comes electric so until the stars fall down

we run a prisoner in...Read More

Oh universe ye tellst to us thy tale,
thy megaphone part of a second old
fills all the vacuum in microwave
throughout the space ye darest to unfold.

So then more time passed than words might describe,
diverted by their dating with the stars
thy low...Read More

I have long lost you 
In the wilderness of space,
My love for you 
Like the flame of a candle
Was snuffed so long ago 
By a light spatial breeze,
Forgotten and forsaken easily 
Like a blaze of a blistering nova,
Evaporated like a...Read More

Hold tight you said, as I was spread across your handlebars 
Don’t go so fast I screamed, my smile was fixed just like a mask
Increasing speed I feared this ride could be my very last 
Then swiftly we began to...Read More

on a blanket 
of fallen leaves
within night's shadows
i wish upon the stars
as they flicker
between the clouds

on the threshold
of darkness
we’re aglow
through dreams

tonight
we have the moon
its fullness
filling the voids
of empty arms

kisses
blowing softly
on the breeze
my desires
touching back

love lingering
on the wings
of restlessness 

these leaves
beneath...Read More

Whilst cruised adrift soared vast ocean read stars,
Afar interval page Earth's crystal seas,
Space passengers booked sums bout avatars,
Chapter launches since archived gravities.

Scan per reposed heavens, Earth angels host,
Sprawled free honesty exalts harmony,
Wanderer's blessed hearts a sung melody,
Harp solos sojourners attuned...Read More

Nightfall dreams
on my pillow wait,
silent desires
in down feather whispers,
for it is this moment
when stars connect
our heartbeats
in moonglow affection
that you reach for me
from northern vistas,
caressing my thoughts
as I fall deeply
into your love
once more...

and couldn't
help but yell

WOW

were them

The Greatest of These…

A portrait of the perfect tenderness eternal,
 Painted from the rising mists of a broken promise -
   Finished on a Friday afternoon – complete the promise
Of the everlasting word in worldly wastelands and in realms...Read More

When dusk brushes mild hues on an old pier
The amber sun flames to quiver…then it's gone
As young stars cast their luster till predawn:
Not a float of mist ends day’s task, austere
That ebbing waves row through the pastel light---
And our town...Read More

It's the way she looks at midnight
not worrying about her hair
shines like stars above us
but she'll never disappear

she's wind and sun and water
a gift of hope to some
but what I see is beauty
in the music that she strums

it echoes in...Read More

Maureen may i ask

not to bother to

LESS ABOUT YESTERDAY AND MORE ABOUT NOW
SHE DEMANDED THAT HE RESTORE HIS OWN
DIGNITY BY BEING THE MAN SHE MARRIED
MIGHT YOU SEEM MORE WILLING AND LESS UNLIKELY
OR MIGHT YOU UNDERSTAND INSTEAD OF OVER DOING.
THOSE WHO'S YESTERDAY'S HAVE NAMED THEM AS SUCH
MIGHT...Read More

Maybe one day it will all be alright
Maybe one day I'll figure life out
Maybe one day I'll understand myself
Maybe one day life will give me its answers
Maybe one day I'll ask the right questions
Maybe one day I'll find out the...Read More
