Premium MemberRounded Sycamore

our rounded sycamore
symmetrically sound
waiting to be drawn
photographed by many
the perfect model for a family tree
in my grandma's yard
I feel reverence and appreciation

Premium MemberSaving Doris

Doris was a beet who was well-loved
she was symmetrically and artistically beautiful.
the entire garden decided to hide her,
because they could not bear to see her eaten

carrots, radishes, green beans and peas took turns
camouflaging Doris, so the eaters would not notice her.
she thrived all summer long, getting bigger and bigger
by the time the farmers noticed her, she had petrified.

weirdly enough, Doris did not stop growing.
she was twenty-two foot tall by that winter.
and she had turned into a beautiful gray tree.
a rare beet tree, beloved by a garden.

                 sparkles like sugar
                 so sweet symmetrically
                 spins softest songs

The Dragonflies Dance

On a late Summer day in August
a light breeze is the catalyst
for winged dragons that emerge.

I watch an ancient tradition
unfold before my eyes
as the dragonflies dance.

They swoop, they dive,
and then bow, and curtsy
pirouetting on air currents.

In my minds eye
I see myself dancing 
With the winged creatures.

We dance for the designer,
rejoicing in exuberance
for the gift of earthly days.

Forever changed we become 
as He joins in the dance,
and we dance symmetrically.

Someday the King and I
will for all eternity
dance with the dragonflies.

Premium MemberTurned Around

Hateful as they may be, to the eye
and ear, the elimination of words,
statues, ideas, etc., will do nothing
toward making a venom free society – 

to flood with light, explaining,

though far more difficult,
more laborious (seemingly impossible
at times) is the only palatable good. 

A great, natural builder, artist, 
builds his (his/hers – God I hate this,
Politically Correct) foundation using 
those odd, irregular stones as well as the 
seeming, symmetrically perfect – 

variations, outliers are a blessing,
and not a Cosmic Blemish – 

the fault, if any to be laid, is when using 
ourselves, needlessly, hurtfully -- making
arrow-heads of the pen's of Valentines...

Taking free-thought away from children
will only do away with individuality,

leaving soulless shells instead -- 

not cleansed human beings, ready for
fresh priming; but globs of rancid, detergent 
filled sponges -- the soppy, dead remains, 
of what were once, thriving, healthy, alive 
brains... 

gone any true worthfulness, and sense
of sacred being....

Symmetry

Symmetry appeals to me – 
The yin demands a yang.
Imagine Dracula if he
Had just one single fang.

A balance is required
For a bird or bee to fly
So Nature has conspired
To explain the reason why.

We have two eyes, two ears, two feet
And, naturally, two hands.
Symmetrically, we are complete
To follow life’s commands.

Rebellious types like things askew,
Eschewing any match,
But when I see their work on view,
I wish they’d start from scratch.

Poets and Alarm Clocks

When it failed to ring,
I wondered, hell why it didn't—
This alarm sweet that must sing,
But there was no hint.

It soon volunteered:
You wound me too tight last night,
Clocks like humans are weird—
React if wound tight.

Poets erudite
Beware, readers are wound loose,
Ye may soar like a loose kite,
Till it gets your goose.

Premium MemberSunflowers- Emotions

Sunflowers make a unified display;
   symmetrically joined, each one by one-
gold petals dance around a center stage;
   together, side-by-side in harmony.

Sunflower stems exhibit stable strength
   supporting well their towering large heads;
as they, with thick, broad leaves encounter wind-
   stems firmly keep them upright in the fields.

Adapting for good light, sunflowers thrive
   by using their heliotropic heads;
they turn to face the sun when changing paths-
   from East to West- and back to East again.

Framed by a landscape under sunny skies-
   sunflower scenes are lovely works of art;
bright, sunny faces, swaying in the breeze-
   creative work of nature- full and lush.

Bright, golden sunflowers- for me, mean love;
   a gift presented to me through the years.
To honor special days, my family-  
   oft send me lovely sunflower bouquets.

Fire

No fear of fire; burn into ashes makes me not timorous coz it never can burn inner truth; I have fear of hate, ego, vengeance..... all kinds of wickedness are fire which obliterate inside as well as outside symmetrically along with ravage the roots of eternity

Fire smiles in dawn sun,
in flapping wings of thunder,
Deathless light in truth

Symmetrically Stunning Simplicity

Simplicity seduces stunning symmetrically salivating stimuli
Complexity confounds controlled curiosities calculating clarify
Ambiguous ambitions amplify arousing academics admirable
Mellifluous melodies making magical memories memorable

Poetic pendulums pondering pensive promiscuous pleasures
Esthetic echoes encouraging efficacious emulative endeavors
Deceiving diametrical dilemmas distancing dichotic delusions
Receiving rhythmically ratiocinative raging roaring revolutions

Beautiful breaths breathing benevolent boisterous behaving
Irreducible imaginary immortalizing idling iconic interfacing
Harmonic hemispheres hovering Homeric humble hypnotic
Tectonic transitions technical tantalizing theatrics thermotic.



This poem is dedicated to my friend Andrea Dietrich...whose poetry inspires all
In reference to her latest potd "When Poetry is Art"
Just messing with you my friend...love ya...and Happy! Holidays!


...this poem can also be read backward~from right to left...

Super Duper

they put us
side by side
on a shelf

turning our
keys at the
same time

but we each
have different
tempos as we

motionlessly
pose in stance
atop our music

boxes and turn
merry go round
as if to dance

you a ballerina
me a frog with
tux and tails

top hat cane
complete
Puttin' on the

Ritz which
juxtaposes
though we're

both on one
leg your form
is balanced 

on one toe in
that of sacred 
geometry

so as our music
slowly slows
yours shows 

still melodic
lines symmetrically
infinitesimal eternal

my song has stopped
but in the faintest quiet
yours will always be heard

Hip Hop Shine

Past the second light,aboard a ship am drifting
Feeling elated I need a minute to let it all sink in
If the crown  fits I will line mine with pearls
Take a trip to Utopic Islands just to get my cereal outta farms
High_grade bud and tantalizing rum
I feel queasy flimsy,if am sick its the whisky cheating
Lets go far from here a place with no hurt or fear
I need freedom for a while, not mere wishful thinking,perception or dreams
Nothing imagined is real
We don't need simulation to make whips spin a rim
My goal is to make mankind supreme delight
Notta buncha snitches n rats
My artistry was sculpted  from ancient Egyptian Vines
Made to last in a mummified extension of euclidean signs
If hanging the verse by double rhymes will bring justice to musicality then I will guillotine a chapter in style
Sex a whole clan of verbs just to make my point heard symmetrically

Cinemas Canter

Situations stirring like a great big bee. Finishing annihilation aimed at a tree. Forty-six fishes means a great big line. And a pool of senses is neither a slime nor a faith. In a nine centimetre goblet there is existing a catacomb of unauthorized doctrines who seek to revoke a planetarium alignment at six o'clock and a wide rancid frog belching in a corner is merely akin to a large box of chocolates waltzing on a plate. But at the high speed cycle of a washing machine there cab exist 200 drones, a purple nightie, a silver molested glove, ten drawn swords and a sparkly dagger. Omit no orbic residue from a tidally induced flood. And a flour is not a flower it is not a baking in a two foot garden. Hahahahah synergistic syndrome symmetrically symbolised stirring sap syrup. And a giant horn of a herd rising and raising a radioactive beam. Oh prison not a prism. Pickle no paint. And curve no charisma. Hahahaha to it all. Ho how much you can do that for the purpose. And a dove. Dancing. With a curvaceous cabbage. Dawn that then demon. And chop. Chip. Xxxxx gravitational gibbons giving gratification xxxx hahahahah plaid pig pointing posts. Xxxxx cinematography z
