“How does it feel, studying for your first exam of the semester?” My sister Annick dug at me, via Facetime. “Oh, I’m miserable and no one even knows!” I exclaimed excitedly. I already miss summer’s sense of infinite time and space, and life on the lake, with its big, wet, melancholy summer rains. But most of all,...

I have a great piece coming up. This isn’t it, I misplaced it, but as soon as I find it, I’ll post it. This one is less-than-perfect. The less-than-perfect summer felt like love. There were some genuine moments of glamor and a few new, intense, sense-memories to recall. It wasn’t easy but we performed that magic called holidaymaking - things in...

Even Harder Than Spoken smooth Transitions
Bel canto Her asking Suport- Part three Somewhere they say that you and I are together somewhere they'll believe that we are one we found interest in us together we're interested in having fun My true love don't know we're together If it goes Your way we've just begun I know ya'll get tired of sounding blue hearing song's about people doing the things they do Happiness is of what you make it Ones...

October
October brings us 'round to wonder What's ahead as our year is ending This vibrant time with colors transcending On Earth at this time every year. From green to yellow, to orange, and brown Disappearing leaves and flowers give us pause Unaware we grieve their loss On Earth at this time every year. A signal of loss, but we seem to...

Transitions
Someone said that you're either a man or a woman, well now, maybe Rishi was right, say it if you can; you may not choose although perhaps it's coming, how many more will be playing football we're wondrin. We need a new changing room, we have to be sure, to make certain that no one's peeping under the door; what to...

Transitions
Transitions and Contrasts: Just like the Seasons Scorching, sweltering, drying, draining The Candle of the Sky, now a supernova Chirping birds cry out for drops of draught, The strays of streets too, dying or suffering. The poor farmer’s heart, broken, Like his dry and barren field and feet. His wife’s sweaty palms trying to support The pot on her head, and the babe...

Transitions
A cocoon to butterfly's. Egg, to free birdie's. Inseparable from each change Smooth, painless goes by Wonder into wisdom morphs. Shallow, deeper joy. For what of bodies, souls Tell us, Earth and Sky....

Premium Member Finals Week 4
Final exams start Thursday, and it’s giving us all the feels. Finals have a gravity of their own. Are the papers worse than exams? Maybe. The tension can be relentless and heavy. “It’s finals week, see you on the other side.” As for me, I’m almost packed up. Time is an odd and unpredictable beast. It’s hard to believe that in two weeks,...

Transitions - Collab With Margarita Lillico
Autumn ultimately receives it all - Painted in bald bohemian design, A poet’s sacred inspiration shrine - Nevertheless not exempt from the fall. Winter ultimately trumps with cold swing - Triumphant yet frigid, monochrome muse, Sublimating into slumbering blues - Nevertheless not immune to the spring. Spring ultimately renews with fresh whiff - Splendour of colours ignites the...

Autumn ultimately unveils it all, Basking in bold bohemian design, Pastoral poets’ inspiration shrine - Enlivens lavishly before the fall. Winter ultimatum trumps with chill swing - Impetus frozen by a frigid muse - Sublimating into slumbering blues, Melting away under the spell of Spring. Spring’s ultimate pizazz wafts in the air, Awakening the...

Summer’s ending; autumn’s pending. Nature teases, sending breezes cool and pleasing but so fleeting. Temps rise greeting summer lovers. Autumn hovers. Soon warm covers will be needed. Those who pleaded for fall’s coming will be humming. September 14, 2022 entered in a Brian Strand Premiere Choice Poetry Contest Placed 7th...

Transitions of Lifetime
Poetry grows in silence, and darkling the imagination in the clouds begins the sky besides, we don't conceive how it is right... On limbo we stand still, we await any solution, this life is only one life, where do we wait? the mission... If we are passive we live in fear, if we fight we are only competition, in place...

Premium Member Great Transitions
Great transitions became part of human experience after we gave up on daily nomad lifestyle, perhaps too bohemian to have ever actually existed out of nutritional nurturing choice As contrasted with necessity of drought, floods, pestilence, famine, chronic wars, climatic absence of healthy peace. Great transitions are choices, positive more than negatively motivated, to move from one habitat in space and/or time to another that feels more promising, worthy of trust, a potential celebration of...

Transitions
Been knocked down But never put out. Been lied to, cursed at Even talked about. Had a few pick-me-ups and A couple of dust-me-offs Serpents trying to slime me With materialistic pay offs. Obstacles laid in my paths Like bear traps in the woods, By foes and those Who only wished to know they could See what I see, go where I go, Proclaiming sister and brotherhood Just to...
