The Twine that Binds
Out of my mind and lost in time
Holding on to a love unkind
Unwind the twine that cruelly binds
Me to my severed valentine
Her voice still calls through echoing halls
As madness clings to crumbling walls
All consumed in lingering perfume
Her presence like a ghost haunting this room.
Left behind—a love consigned
A fantasy born within my mind
She gave

WHIMSY IN THE MEADOW
In a meadow where wildflowers twine,
Two little friends, in sunshine, align.
A bunny with fur as soft as new snow,
And a cheeky squirrel with eyes all aglow.
They bound through the clover, chase golden rays,
With giggles and whispers that dance in the haze.
They twirl under rainbows that arch in the sky,
In this whimsical world, their

breeze twine spider's web
earth shadow
dim path wake
to loss quake
timidly its
quietness deep
infinite voice
appears restless
nesting birds await
conceal, motionless
safely perched between
aspen leaves as cold
breezes lace a web

Devotion Poem Entangled
for Jim)DEVOTION POEM - ENTANGLED. (for Jim)
For me he’s The One.
As I’ve been for him
his Only One.
From the beginning when
Our fates embraced.
I listen to his breathing, while concerned,
He watches how well I’m moving.
Around him, I am a verdant vine.
He rises near — as a braid of wildflowers

Inner Twine In Christ Reunited In the Skies-
I am excited bout my Christ
My Lord
My Savior
Parting the skies, coming down
To fly away with the redeem ones
Am I, am I one of His
Inner twine in Christ reunited in the heavenly skies

It's Twine Time
It’s Twine Time!
(to Alvin Cash)
It’s twine time!
ooh, ah, ooh, ah, ooh, ah!
It’s time to twine, baby!
Time to forget about it all!
The latest lollipop disasters,
The catastrophes dressed in nude attire,
The latest bristlecone attacks
Manufactured with iced fear,
Riveted with barbecued bullets.
Lookin’ good, baby; have mercy!
It’s twine time!
Passing grooving styling peeps
Living lives in psychotic bondage
To

Golden Twine
Saša Milivojev - GOLDEN TWINE
A Spirit
A wandering soul
A wrathful squall
In the fire levin ‘s blasting
Ice within the chest is crackling.
Everything to me is hindrance
You are not within my distance
We are bound by golden twine.
Step down from the blazing sun
The child loves you but it stammers
Because this un-beating heart
Cannot fasten
Gelid gates of inky Hades.
I shall lay

My Dreams Must Twine- Collaboration
A sad early death will be mine
if, my dreams do not twine.
No reason to rise up from my soft bed.
Why is your life so unyielding? My MUSE, just said.
Life reacts. You have poems to design!
But, I whisper to my heartless life,
____ I am dreaming of words divine,
. . . . of family I did love

Twine
Convince yourself that everything is fine
Get high on leaves and drunk off sweet wine,
invite the starving wolves to dine
Feed your body to their teeth
Our Garden, your bones burried underneath
Covered in twine, your funeral wreath
On your tombstone, what will I write?
"She thought I couldn't hear her cry at night
She didn't didn't struggle as the jaws

Frayed Twine
Frayed Twine
Often, thoughts of you, as my safety net
as the tight rope under foot never taught
Even footing sure, cannot steady time
Stretching, past memories, will balance naught
Sweet solitude, I dream, I close my eyes
I step away, let go, and fall for you
as once before you led me straight across
into your arms of warmth and trusted truth
You

Twine and One
...twine and one...
Whilst the sky is jet darkly
the stars are brilliantly diamonds sparkling
capturing the hearts of the night's lovers
sitting by the water with lips lock
uncaring to the naked eyes of the night
Who, what, and wherever - doesn't matter to
them at this hour of amorous
They are two lovers to

Lover's Twine
A rose, like a sweet sorrow, blooms for love's tomorrow
A heart, beating pure, is a vessle meant to endure
A life, like the sea, is there for you and me
A love, running wild, was never meant to be defiled
You, like a flower, grow more beauty with each hour
Me, like a bee, is drawn to you and

UNSUPPORTED CODE Tyner Twine UNSUPPORTED CODE
Heart of mine,
Frozen it time,
You'll be fine,
You'll be fine.
Sing your song,
Keep it's rhyme,
Keep its chime,
Believe in your spring time.
Heart of mine,
Search for your smile,
Look up at the sky,
Hope never dies.
Believe in destiny,
And if by chance it was not meant to be,
Take a deep breath

Twine
Did you see the moon last night?
It was big and yellow;
Incandescent
I woke up mad and sad
It was gone; just went missing
Though I guess today it’s made
It’s way, across both land and sea
Traveling like a vagabond
For someone else to see
