Sunny Poems

Oh gossip where is your sting,
you are here today and hurting others for days to come.
Oh gossip how shy you are,
pretending to say nothing to anyone.
Oh gossip to say and to hear can't you just go away,
go away and don't...Read More

On a hot humid day
A young lady walks
Into a small town
She carries a small
    basket
Filled with some groceries
She is now walking home

From afar she sees a bench
Then decides to sit awhile
Before she returns home
From her shopping trip
In...Read More

Some memories are a pantomime in a dolls house.
A lantern-slide show in a small old-time theater.
Each seat occupied with an audience of one.

The spectacle is painted in sunny colors
as if some skillful child had chosen fairy-tale similes
to illustrate parts of...Read More

I feel like we are living in a cruel and darkened cloud,
Places that we used to go no longer we’re allowed.
Things we took for granted are now passing out of sight,
Maybe we’ve done something wrong, or not done something right.
We...Read More

A dream of a sweet soft kitten,
a cuddly kitten to hold and love,
daily friendship and fun.

A dream of the morning daybreak,
bright colors now appearing,
sun coming up like the middle of a dream.

A dream that has turned into a nightmare,
gory details...Read More

Liberation
by 
Kieran Pavlick

You can't dance 
in the sunny meadows.
Or smell the 
flower's perfume.

If you continue
to reside in the
forest dark
with the flying 
monkeys of regret....Read More

Now I lay me down to rest.
I pray the world to give their best.
The best of Man, in the worst of times.
Our Poets can help with peaceful rhymes.

This valley of shadows we now shall trod.
Lead us please, oh Lord our...Read More

The hustle and the bustle of the port is all around
The shouting of the merchants quoting prices by the pound 
The throwing of supplies over gunwales is all but done
The time has come for us to leave with our sanity...Read More

Four hang ups, no messages left.
Bereft of those moments near the phone,
a lonely heart could only hope it was you
who called while I was required to be away.
A pay phone call would disguise my ID.
Pleas of "Don't leave," beg from...Read More

I'm the gambler with the empty hand
Even though she believes in me
Through the years, I've folded every plan
Twenty years ago, our skies were sunny

Even though she believes in me
They said, don't fall in love with a dreamer
Twenty years ago, our...Read More

Why do you feel the need to take my life way,                             ...Read More

Take a glass and fill it half full of water.
We have often heard by some the glass is half full,
by others the glass is half empty.
Now which is it half full or half empty?
It is both,
it is how you look...Read More

Should we shed the boy and be a man?
Shoot of spirit wild -to be tamed in the tamed land.
Where is the proof that this cynical evolution;
this cyclical passthrough is a strengthened constitution.
A blur and a blink of vision to the...Read More

Hey little guy how are you this sunny day?
I am OK,
I am sitting on this rock watching tears coming down the little girl's face.
What are the tears all about?
Tears can be happy tears or tears can be sad tears,
little drops...Read More

After wishing me a good morning, he said that it was all set,
It was time to raze the house, even though I wasn't in debt!

But they wanted to build a big highway, exactly in this spot,
Like a beaver zealously builds...Read More

Sunny days

This is a beautiful warm day after a cold night
I chanced it and went for a walk to the woods
the track was now widened for cars.
The pace ended abruptly by an iron fence.
I could see no house, but someone...Read More

sun, your brushstrokes
in golden honey cloak; 
pencil, brush, chalk,
or charcoal all faux
cannot capture your talent. 
colour, shadow, or life  fluent
taken seriously, 
stuck in still-life beauty, 
but the present, sunny.

On an isle of emerald where one can dream 
A storm brewed acting like a fiend 
Kicking out a rainbow and leprechaun holding four clovers made in green 
“We are tired of these fakes who are as ugly as snakes,”...Read More

O dark curtain that raises or lowers 
As diseased tides dictate.

Why bring you ever fresh soured winds to my door?

For Time itself, as the great healer it is, in passing
Softly whispers within fevered breezes
‘Rest, rest, it will pass, as all...Read More
