Premium Member Yesterday in a Moment
Soon dawn at plum morn though pearly moon still keeps watch, for the golden end. Afternoon's recalled in dreams adorned in wild color schemes. Memory Lane sleeps as orange noon is coming, after dusk scarlet. Lemon-lime hours revisit and bluebird returns vivid. Pink skies are coming a jade past is repeating, since tomorrow's gone. Time's fallen asleep, at last skewing the future and past. ...

Yesterday void of compassion
When yesterdays become devoid of compassion Past once filled with kindness Became stripped of those gentle hues. You look back,see what was care What felt like love now appears tainted by ego The smile you cherished now feels hollow. ...

Premium Member She spoke to me yesterday
She spoke to me yesterday Rippling in the brisk spring breeze Humming her song of freedom Etched with the pain of passion Humbled by the sacrifices endured Snapped sharply as a gust stirred images Of a county’s growing pains The trauma of generational gestation Then she whispered to me As I shed a tear Each must become its own Sharpen its own sword Stand tall in the...

Tuning into Yesterday, Mellow Touch 94 Point 7 FM
The static hiss, a prelude soft and low, Before the velvet voice began to flow. Ninety-four point seven, a beacon in the night, Guiding our young hearts with its gentle light. The eighties hummed with neon's vibrant gleam, But in the airwaves, a more tranquil dream. Mellow Touch unfolded smooth and so slow, Where whispered melodies began to grow. Remember Sunday mornings lazy...

Unearthing Yesterday
The scent of rain on hot asphalt, unearths a ghost of summers past. Barefoot on sun-baked concrete, a phantom echo of laughter bounces off brick walls that no longer stand. A melody drifts from a distant radio, a tune I haven't heard in years, and suddenly I'm sixteen again, awkward and full of yearning, leaning against a chain-link fence, watching the world unfold like a...

The Explosive Heart of Yesterday
The pixelated maze, a vibrant square, Where Bomberman strode without a single care. A grid of blocks, some breakable and weak, While others stood, a fortress we would seek To navigate, with joystick firm in hand, A childhood quest in this digital land. The simple beep, the rising urgent tone, As power-ups appeared, uniquely sown. The flame's embrace, extending far and wide, The roller...

Premium Member Crazy Crow was not Born Yesterday
Crazy crow flew in loops and whorls Flying pattern as scalloped as mama’s curls Wee witch said he’s the familiar for me Invited him to sup on blueberry afternoon tea Crazy crow flew in the window, around the kitchen twice The cat said “he looks marvelous, I think he’s nice.” She truly thought he looked plump and tasty too. When the crow...

From Yesterday to Tomorrow
we were strangers once, then we weren’t, suddenly laughing ‘til our stomachs hurt. late night talks, dumb inside jokes, “best friends forever” like it was wrote. but life moves fast, and so did we, different paths, different speeds. you took a turn that I couldn’t see, while I kept pushing towards what I believed. I moved forward, chasing dreams, you stayed true to what...
