Premium Member Poppies burn like love under the sun that births longing
Poppies burn like love under the sun that births longing, Let me ask for forgiveness, to touch your face with light, To be your sunbeam, to be a halo on your delicate brow, To caress your skin with a sweet breeze, a zephyr that caresses the wheat, Let my smile seduce you, let longing flow over your waist. The evening...

Premium Member Refurbished Tears
"The darkened sky stole my tears" Leaving me empty of ebony despair Fears fall like amber autumn leaves Bravery is braided in my somber soul Whispers of denim denial from Cursed child serve as warning Lunge forward or sink in the earth Food only for beasts and worms Or be a light despite fright Turn into the brightest energy Conjuring courage...

Premium Member A Brook Trickled Easily Down
A brook trickled easily down As poetry running unbound And I stood on a rock To hear the steady stream Of foreign words gurgled. A hazy shaft of light beamed down - Laser-pointing through piney boughs - And where it gently struck - Columbine shined and teemed The floor with emeralds....

Why does the sun sympathize

The Quiet Sunlight
The quiet sunlight doesn’t announce its arrival— it simply leans against the wall of morning, filling the cracks no one else noticed. It does not chase shadows, just softens them. No battle, no brightness loud enough to burn. It touches the windowpane like a memory you didn’t know you were still holding. Warm, but not urgent. Present, but never demanding. It drapes itself across the cluttered desk, the wilted houseplant, the spine of a book you...

Premium Member Into The Black Hole Sun - A Cosmic Ballad of Love, Loss and Illusion, Music Video
This piece was sparked by an idea in a fellow poet Tom Woody’s’ — “Last Dance Amid the Stars.” I however, followed a very different emotional path — one that avoids finality and leaves room for mystery and one’s own imagination. The story also touches on the true stories of a growing trend with...
