Death in the New Year
Our hands are tied, Death Since you dawned on us this New Year . . . Shapely bottles of champagnes have shone And have broken to fragments with the ululation Of firecrackers that warmed cold and dark wintry skies. Now, aphonia sets in from unending lamentations. Headlines, buried by the chilly bones of winter, Are barren of good tidings. A chionophile besieges the...

A Year Has Past
Nothing beats the summer breeze The memories of the ones who leave Lotus flowers smile at me Saying this will pass, you’ll come to see Walking in a forest with my shoes in my bag Wishing I were leaving the town that I have The year is almost over, and I’m still lying on the grass The...

Night of the James Taylor Concert during Freshman Year at College
My friend most beautiful sat shoulder to shoulder with me after the lights went low and the show began. We took in ballad after ballad the tender voice hour after hour and a spell was cast. The song of Don’t Let Me Be Lonely Tonight spoke to me— I could almost cry. I glanced at her and she looked straight ahead. This was the night I...

Sweet memories with bitter ending
2024.07.29, about a year ago, Without BB, I visited the 12 Apostles on the Great Ocean Road. Months before that he promised me, We would travel wherever I fancied. Even just days before the trip, He raised no issue. Well that was what I reckoned, Promise was made to be broken. On the way back to Melbourne, I wrote a poem which I first...

A Poem for a Year's Ending
By Michael Parker Days have flown quickly by like fearsome comets. Here then gone; here then gone. My hair is colored moonlight. My bones are brittle as the limbs of the trees cracking from the touch of winter’s deepening freeze. If I could disclose a secret, it is suffering has visited me like an old...

Premium Member Years That Ask, Years That Answer
Winter storm. Question marks fall like snow on shoulders bent with seeking. Hollow caverns where certainty once lived echo chambers of why. Face pressed against cold glass. Fingertips trace what cannot be grasped. Footsteps soft on unseen paths. Autumn leaves crumble in cupped palms. Dreams, half-formed, scatter like dust through fingers that cannot hold. Shell splits. Light finds the crack, makes...

New World Order
> There is a new world rising, Not in thunder, not in fire— But in a silence so deep, It echoes across the galaxies. 181 nations, long forgotten by history’s biased pen, Have gathered—not in conflict, but in covenant. From the ruins of colonial greed, A golden phoenix stirs. The old gods of currency—Dollar, Euro, Pound— Fall like crumbling idols. In their place, a New...

It doesn’t happen everyday Through perilous weather, flies Santa’s sleigh Reflecting in the Winter sun Are its legs, in gunmetal grey Yet as Christmas Eve turns to Morning Falling behind red-silk and cotton Among the frost One’s mind is lost And all else is forgotten The children play with what was brought Without as much as a second thought From where these marvellous gifts came Or in...

Year After Year
Let the rain fall through the town From the hills, all around Watch the flowers grow in sync They'll stand tall but don't you blink Then the time of laugh and cheer Which will never disappear Fog stays the most of all Soon after the leaves fall The chilling age in time is here With snowfall always near The year repeats time again But the...

Year 3
You died today, three years ago. Which is when I wrote down this date with a brief note. Katrina died. Yeah, that was all I could fit inside, on the month and date in this small box with a space below your exit time. So it’s there. Centered, where I scribbled down inside, an...

I would bring you a dancing two-year-old A giddy, happy, excited, joyful toddler She would be wearing a fancy dress Her spinning and twirling would make you smile She would take your hands and clap them for you You would be delighted with her, for she is delightful She would show you how to fingerpaint and remind you to laugh that hearty...
