gone astray in a world of her own she earnestly embraces her whims dancing to a wistful melody that truthfully only she can hear and the abiding stars play along spinning round in graceful harmony Submitted on April 29, 2025 for contest MICRO POEM sponsored by INK EMPRESS...

spring arrives today a scatter of clouds grey parisian rains unfurl winds that twirl and hurl umbrellas in the air petticoats fly up with flair whether each parisian girl parades for whim or dare posted on March 19, 2025...

Premium Member Beneath The Surface Of A Whim
Wave a magic wand and poof! Try to put the genie back in the bottle Oops, too late…now everyone’s laughing More like heads shaking in disbelief Wear the rough edges of your plan down With the file still buried in that 34-ingredient cake A humorous situation, no, a real mess At the crossroads…freedom & whim You tore apart the construct limb from limb Disaster...

The Wicked Wonderment of We
Eyes of black - Heart of cold He was the missing piece of my soul He entered my world dressed in leather and lookin' mean He was a delicious scream within' a dream The Nevermore of Forevermore - a cut that never bleeds He was it - a renegade stallion - menacing and powerful Mystical and magnificent Just the sight of him...

Mom said there's no time for a swim! For sure, I was upset and grim. The day was so hot- Time for a quick shot! Dunked my brainy head on a whim! ...

Premium Member Silly Whim
Magnetic storm emitted A surge of solar blow I wasn’t there, but you Were touched by it, I know Soon afterwards you thought “What makes me talk to him” All reasons were rejected Except a silly whim Next evening you were smiling And joking quite a lot And I had no idea Of the forthcoming plot You waited, till I went to sleep Pulled out...

I loved him On a whim Said I’d never love again Churning and turning In my stomach Feeling dizzy So much spinning Getting tired of the chase Not knowing what to say Does he love me back Or am I just a fool...

Premium Member On the Whim of the Wind
No rooster crowed the tenebrous morning I woke to somber skies aflame. As dawn rose across a crimson horizon, a firestorm blazed from a golden core and scarlet lava flowed above the plains. Charred, were black mordant clouds. Menancingly, they swept over my barn. A rubicund threat; a hazard to the earth, an inferno; a warning of ill-fated death. Terror filled me as fire...

It Won'T End For a Whim
Ah, crazy girl you've fooled around with other guys when I wasn't around, and those blinking eyes can't lie; I could say, " Pack up all your staff and leave, give me back my keys: find a corner to grieve! " Am I so heartless to let you die? It won't end for a whim, giving up on you is...

What's happened here? I asked, I asked again... and where to reclaim. For I've lost something precious (so dear to me) and someone or something's to blame and will I be repaid in heaven's name? To be sure, I'll find peace in justice, heh justice in life.. heh! Where to place it.. God, demon, mankind, or you? Oh, such a shame...

Premium Member A Simple Whim- POTD
How I wish to scuttle alone, over a gentle river, from bank to bank, in a small boat, rowed with a bamboo pole. The call of the wild is an irresistible call, to venture into the silken waters, to feel the wind and look at the blue sky with nimbus clouds drawing strange patterns, when seagulls’ fly, shrieking over my head, and sense the misty...

I I had an idea Far to the back of my mind It wasn’t clear A glint not a shine I had a thought Couldn’t pin it down I had a dream In my dressing gown I had a whim Grabbed at thin air I can’t swim Throw me a chair I hunted gold Hacked with my pick I caught a cold Felt quite sick I toil all day Hoping for a break I...

Harpers of My Heartstrings
The strings of my heart are pulled taut like a bow A tension within sourced deep down below Too many odd dreams, inside me it seems, Their wretched whispers, a bleak audio They reach out and grasp my heartstrings impure Why do they all hold so much allure? All of them mine, but there’s not enough time To give to all of...

Premium Member Exile On a Whim
Doors slam, windows crack, letter flap inhales a fatal wind. Breastplate rusty dragon bearing scars. House keys, credit cards, raybans close to hand. Faux fur on the rack for noble bounty, footnotes to a chapter without end. Wistfully I crane my neck in peril, finger marks on carbon black hand rail, sprightly dash o’er slippy granite steps. Odour eaters clog my leather shoes beyond...
