Tentative Tempests
Why must I beg pardon?
Has been our great question;
When you and I battle,
Vessels at home rattle;
I say yes; you say no,
Matters so silly though;
I swear; you swear; sourly,
Dogs and cats laugh wholly...
You are old; I am old,
Our looks have turned ice-cold;
Ego, yet, like a spring,
In us, plays monarch-swing...
When we ask each other,
At end

Hemmed In Feminine
Scale mosaic tail lays gracefully draped over rock
Sumptuous hip width to skin graduates
Saturated waist trailing tendrils touched by moss
Silk mermaid nautical languor eminates
Sorrow in inhibit, love's absence induces her sobs
Vanguard calmly addresses the depths with probe
Weaving seemlessly amongst seaweed
Gentle marina mistress, Clementine reserves hope
For a qualified merman, in love succeed
Tugged subtly by tides of

Tentative and Unrefined
My poems have me musing with my muse:
inking new phrases, so I don't reuse.
And to make obscure words sound sensible:
a thesaurus is indispensable.
Each and every line conceived in my mind
gets roughed in, tentative, and unrefined.
And to broaden my vocabulary,
I consult a rhyming dictionary.
And as verses form through perseverance,
a brand-new poem makes its appearance.

Tentative
Walk calmly here
Seize wise good cheer
Face each fear then
Make fear your friend
Fit well fine wit
Taste timeless bits
Cheer knows happy
Make fear snappy
Each moment dies
With high and sigh
Cry if you must
When true love rusts
To transcend all
Rise when you fall
Judge not with hate
Love's never late
Do your best here
For love endears
Tentative moods
Unfurl some good
In this haystack
Take time to slack
Too

A Tentative Peek
To you I profess care,
True or untrue rests in you fair,
What runs inside you I know not rare?
But surely did not come in a moment thread-bare.
At and all times like this,
To allay all shackles,
That, with hope, does not express by pyre.

Tentative Dancer
Do I choose to join, this Poetic Dance
To reveal my soul, to take this chance
I am left to wonder, who will care
If my life is charmed, or full of despair
I release my emotions, to the page
The good the sad, the parts with rage
The pen gets started, revealing each part
A stitched together, healed broken heart
Like many

Tentative
Consider a moment,
Tentative steps.
Perhaps they seem new
and an uncharted realm,
requiring a measure of time
to truly remember how to walk
a path that leads to happiness.
Glance at the citadels' walls
which you have built over time,
to protect your hearts desires.
Do you really comprehended,
its image, stature and strength
from the other side of perception?
Is
