Like A Rose On A Trellis, In A Garden Of Love


Here we are
              just him and I 
               beneath a tell-tale sky of high.  
I 
             hanging on  
       like a rose on a trellis, 
                 in a garden of love ! 
He 
                like a lattice
                             sure and steady. 
Worship dreams of valor 
                everything else is 
                         just a paler shade of 
               blue...
Here we are 
              the open sky and I 
          and the One who seeded me 
  like a rose in a garden 
                 of pure perfection!

Premium Member Love trellis

We nurture soul’s love trellis,
with heart’s pulsations zealous,
purity its quintessence,
brightening luminescence.

When our thoughts are in repose,
bliss magnetism strikes a pose,
renewing rapture’s refrain
in heart, without any strain.

Love invokes God’s grace at will,
whence voids within in time fill,
bliss piercing each cell of form,
felt as currents cool and warm.

Thoughts slow and heartbeats mellow,
causes love’s nectar to flow, 
cognised as a soundless roar,
transforming us at our core.

Why Does Great Gods Above, A Trellis Fling

Romance to my quivering lips then took
Knowledge, words from that greatest holy book
Within the sky mountains a deep blue pool
Robin faltered was he indeed a fool
What fragrance the chill wind brought over
Jasmine, white roses and smell of clover
Why does great Gods above a trellis fling
That man in golden dreams demand more things
Earth gentle and mild its huge heart awakes
To mold diamonds and ever greater stakes
What more does cold North, its rhythmic wind sows
As the king hit with Herculean blows
With such force the druids their sharp swords slash
But even fallen angels wanted no cash
Whilst I wake while feeling gentle and mild
And my true heart sang out like a small child.

O' but then lost tapestry had been up high hung.
Artist painted all, even her own fork-tongue.

Robert J. Lindley, Rhyme
Oct 19th, 1977

Note- I composed this and sent a copy of it to my ex-girlfriend, Rachel.
She was a very good artist but we broke up over my talking to my good friend Joan.
Joan was just a good friend, as were her two brothers Larry and Floyd, we never even kissed. I dumped Rachel because she was too jealous.


Premium Member Farewell

Born two centuries yesteryear
A young pair who passed through Ellis
Built a frame home with rose trellis
Intertwined blooms like them bound dear.
Last roses on their headstones rest,
Grandparents by whom I was blest.

A Trellis Full of Roses

She was an orphan with an ax to grind wanting nothing from no one.  
Gifted with flaming red hair and freckles she was quite the eye full 
Each day she ducked around in rubber flip flops picking remnant leaves
and discarded petals from the ground, in her neighbor's backyard, .
One tiny bud 
cute little boutonniere  
fell to the ground 
Like herself this tiny petal had seen better days.  Tucking it in her smock 
she scrambled on her knees in another patch to find more of them.   
another petal,  
she began to melt  
beneath a fractal sun 
Juniper Bleeding Berries they nicknamed her cuz her lips were always bloody and chewed.  Also known as the hairy red fairy, they poked and taunted  in a jail called  Reyhanli.  
she found a bleeding red one 
mad as hell 
with a shake of the trellis
she spilled out the rose petals one by one. Without a sound they fell, never stood a chance. Picking up an handful of soft crumbled petals she tucked them in her smock.  Bet they felt misplaced there in her sandy pocket, Like herself she thought as she left the others behind, to mulch and rot inside the ground.

Songstress

Tonight, 
a faint hint 
in the way 
you croon

shows your 
longings 
much too 
soon,

takes me 
back to a 
youthful 
promise

of love 
blossoming
on a rainbow 
trellis!


Trump From Tall Trellis

Trump looked down on us from a tall trellis;
Became Novellus that is very over-zealous;
Never has rained,
And then drained;
Owner of each swamp has become jealous.

beneath rose trellis
shaded from spring's warm sunshine....
sweet rose scent rained down

Premium Member Trellis of Deceit

The truth was concealed with many branches
Entangled on a trellis of deceit ,
The anger reflecting inked blots on weeds
As I  cruised alone through evening’s approach...
To bid his disguise   hidden like veiled twigs
Crumbling, withering  in this labyrinth
Till  the pretense of fidelity glared;
Siphoning a love untrue, root to bough...

How my  heart  sullen  as dusk  tumbled on,
Into a maze where a breeze  folded its wings,
Its  cry  echoing my  black homily
That in a daze I recalled his footsteps...
Yet, each step I trailed    became ashen clay ;
His  distorted ploy stirring a flamed rage
Where old leaves fall in the bleak  of moonlight.

Premium Member Dream Space

Light as grace is feathery-soft green trellis.
Lush canopy-charmed, sweet embellish
does embrace my eager face 
while glad fingers trace
my dream leaves
space.
Perfect peace
in willows grand place
where fantasies freely race
thru splendid majesty I relish.
Light as grace is feathery-soft green trellis.

Premium Member Rose That On Trellis Grows

Ya'll remember Rose that on trellis grows
How lovely, her pale pink blossoms in spring
She now has a few dead stems that show
Also some rapid growth, frame overfilling

She needed to be pruned there was no choice
It was painful process, for vinedresser
Hurting to core, in this job didn't rejoice
How it hurt Rose, dripping wounds no lesser

Why did he prune Rose this day _severely
Taking away the newly acquired green
May not know fully answer or reason clearly
Until ages past then old answers seen

He prunes us, cutting away the dead parts
Cuts new growth going in wrong way of the heart_

My love for you is an ivy
You the trellis on which it grows
You hold it up
Keep it contained
You'll never let it fall
I cling to you
You are my trellis
