New Poetry Game-Cinquain Chain- Come on, it's easy and fun!

[mazHur]

for me...
that's amazing!
You also shot a fire
what a lovely co-incidence
Phoochka !

[symphony]

Hey mazHur ;)

Phoochka!
They give shapes to
all my earnest desires!
I believe in heaven when i
eat them! ...

[mazHur]

eat them
I will I will
they are so delicious
impregnated with milk,butter.
honey....

[symphony]

honey--
a drop of it
in a white hot loaf of
morning bread-- gilded by early
sunshine...

[mazHur]

shunshine...
has no meaning
for a night-ridden man
days and nights are same for him
alone!

[symphony]

right! "shunshine" indeed has no meaning! :D

Alone
in this cabin-
me and this deep silence
that speaks to me in voices heard
by none...

[mazHur]

sorry, I forgot to say you Hi in reply!

by none...
except your love
can my wailing heart learn
to smile and make my wretched life
blissful

[ampoule]

kissing
out of the dark
under the mistletoe
do you hear what I hear, yes bells
tinkling

[mazHur]

tinkling
of bells will fill
every small pore of your
body with ecstasy of love
Let's kiss!

[_JadeRain_]

Let's kiss!
And wrap ourselves
In this moment never
Thinking about tomorrow but
Today

[mazHur]

Today
will soon be gone
tomorrow will also
fade but not the memory of
your kiss

[littlewing53]

your kiss
upon morning
brings wet dew to nourish
all that is and ever will be
your touch

[mazHur]

your touch
brought me new life
I stood up as a man
and took you in my arms and lay
you down !

[ampoule]

you down!
don't jump on me!
just look at your paw prints!
I'm a mess and now you'll prob'ly
slobber

[thescholar]

slobber
dribble drip drool
gurgle glug gobble gobs
the blissful harvest feast upon us,
at last

[mazHur]

slobber
not, go wash your
mouth and chew your mouthful
gently until it is no more
itching

[mazHur]

at last
she opened her
mouth and said something weird
my heart began to tremble with
the thought

[ampoule]

the thought
I can't think it
just who could have thunk it
not me, no siree, maybe you
naughty

[mazHur]

naughty
girl admits not,
she wants to be naughty
calls me naughty so cleverly
I faint

[thescholar]

I faint
I fall to bits
Crumble, burning to ashes
a smoldering heap of lost dreams
ashen

[Bakiryu]

Ashen
Memories lost
Burned into the ground
Like pale willow trees
Crying

[symphony]

Did my eyes decieve me? Or was it really baki up there?!

crying
children in east,
who will listen to you
in this noisy havoc, who'll spare
a glance?

[mazHur]

a glance
at the Bengal
Tigress is enough to
stop the toughest hearts from beating
with fear!

[symphony]

aha? the toughest heart in the world(!) is right now missing beats in fear, dude! exams going on, and here i am, doodling around! :rolleyes:

with fear
comes excitement,
bringing about a zeal
for venturing hearts, for probing
sharp eyes...

[mazHur]

sharp eyes
rip open hearts
like a tigress gorging
the body of a poor soul
right here!

[Pendragon]

Right here,
they hanged me.
Didn't want my ghost knowing,
just which roadway leads to Amherst--
crossroads...

[symphony]

crossroads
puzzle me when
on the streets i wander
about unseen, not cared for, not
so loved
....

[firefangled]

crossroads,
I've seen a few
and chosen right or left,
gone straight on through, no never back,
my blues

[firefangled]

you are too fast, Symphony :)

so loved
the highway I
drove its miles, lost my fears
of going home and here I am
at last

[symphony]

the speed demon at 18 :lol:

at last
the rain, falling
from some distant divine
cup, falling... falling for my eyes
athirst...

athirst
eyes... eyes that grow
tired waiting...waiting...
for no rainfall wets their dark dry
lashes...

[Bakiryu]

Did my eyes decieve me? Or was it really baki up there?!

no, I seem to have strayed here :p

lashes
wet with soft dew
seeing...reaching....far
in hopes of changing a life
dreams....

[symphony]

since it's gotta be two syllables, i take the liberty of choosing the next word after "dreams" myself to make it 2 syllabled. :)

Dreams die,
the gold wings of
Hope are incarnadined,
Sensibilities intrude failed
senses.

[mazHur]

senses
betray falsehood
sweetest tastes the
poison of love yet we
happily taste it and live just
to die

[ampoule]

to die
is to step out
the dreaded comfort zone
but I can do it, it's just a
lightbulb

[mazHur]

lightbulb
brightens your nights
you would break all the bulbs
should you sit under the star light
and muse

[firefangled]

and muse,
you water me,
a flower in Winter,
when the trees are sleeping, and I
run dry

[Il Penseroso]

run dry
in fields that glow
naked, indulging rain
to fall, wildness in your steps
splashing.

[ampoule]

splashing
water at you
please come and get me, please
I give in much too easily
I know

[firefangled]

I know
refreshing breeze,
before a rain, my skin
rises in welcome joy, come rain,
drench me

[symphony]

drench me,
lustrous droplets,
for i in my greyness
am ossified and shut behind
bulwarks...

[firefangled]

bulwarks,
moose and squarrel,
they are behind all this,
Natasha! all these cinquain things -
Get Them!

[symphony]

"get them!"
they rushed in, like
some hungry wolves in search
of food, and took whatever they
could touch....

[ampoule]

could touch
a thousand times
but none like you of course
here it is in all its splendor
touch this

[firefangled]

touch this
with your eyes closed,
it's a smile, in the dark,
between here and there, touching is
seeing

[mazHur]

seeing
is believing
but touching is mortal
touching a flower makes your lips
send thrills........

[Captain Pike]

Send thrills
through Internet
protocol over voice
two messages intertwined
alone

[symphony]

alone,
entranced in dark
fuming coffee, i sit
here, waiting for two dark eyes to
see me...

[schadenfreude]

See me
in my red hat.
When the rain forms marble
pools; I will stand and salute your
cold boots.

[mazHur]

cold boots,
my cobbler made
from the leather of his
body simmering with the heat of
lost love

[symphony]

lost love
and vintage wine
add to this evening laze
and a visit by the muse now
and then...

[mazHur]

and then
I hold her hand
and we dance together
to the tune of love and forget
who's who!

[symphony]

who's who--
the party's on,
it no longer matters,
drunk crowds of magazined faces
flash by...

[mazHur]

flash by...
like butterflies
the moments spent with you
in ecstasy of sublime love
flash by.........

Zzzzzzzzzz!

[Il Penseroso]

flash by,
ripple the air
buzzing the day, to bed
a steady murmur, kept awake
till dawn.

[thescholar]

till dawn
we danced together
life was never so sweet
as those fateful last moments of
our lives

[symphony]

our lives
squeezed into
others' by sacred vows
that expire too soon to keep
or save...

[mazHur]

or save
the thought of you
which only keeps my days
bright and my nights glittering with stars
indeed.

[TheFifthElement]

indeed
is the worst kind
of answer; does it mean
yes, or no, or neither - so, like,
perhaps?

[mazHur]

perhaps
we were built for
one another it seems
with you there and me here we are
yet one!

[TheFifthElement]

yet one
must ask, can two
people ever truly
become one? Are we doomed to be
apart?

[Wyoecho]

yet one!
and nothing more
I cannot clearly think
of days past and the happiness
no more

[Il Penseroso]

no more,
I settle down
no skipping to the grave,
a tertiary shrub between
movements.

[ampoule]

movements
the most minute
are often like earthquakes
when we are longing to be touched
do it

[Il Penseroso]

i like that ending

do it,
break from the warmth;
cold flares within your veins
as you stride the midnight tile
for grapes

[firefangled]

for grapes
are for the wine,
a yellow rose a kiss,
how I miss those cherry blossoms
falling

[symphony]

falling
leaves have found me,
lifted arms welcoming--
i wait, i stand, till they drench me
in gold....

[ampoule]

in gold
your feathers dipped
now drying in the sun
and though you look away from me
I know

[schadenfreude]

I know
it's not the end
of the world, and the earth
will not crash and fall, but I can
see it.

[firefangled]

see it,
the reflection
of my words, tapestry,
you are always there, thread of fire,
heartbeat

[symphony]

heartbeat
stops and waits, thoughts
part, a single tear hangs
unsure, senses have long been gone.
what now?

[firefangled]

what now?
the beginning
is proven, so they say,
the infinite laid to rest, Ah!—
sweet dreams

[Il Penseroso]

sweet dreams
jangled in the
caverns of sleep, hallow
bellows settled as he awoke
glaring.

[firefangled]

glaring
into morning,
invisible pieces
of another dream, silken tulle
of time

[mazHur]

of time
we all have sense
yet we often forget
when time is up and we have to
go home.

[ampoule]

go home
he ordered me
and don't forget your smile,
your scent, or your voice ringing in
my ears

[mazHur]

my ears
long for your voice
my eyes yearn to see you
with your red hair glittering in
moon light!

[ampoule]

moon light
will make my tears
look like tiny crystals
you may try to collect them if
you like

[mazHur]

you like
to remember
the sad stories of past
forgetting that only present
is yours

[crazefest456]

"is yours
my love," said he
"everything but THIS-- this,
a shadow of your fate, that nests
within."

[mazHur]

within
you feel different
your outward conduct shows
you, rigid as a stone but soft
within

[crazefest456]

sorry mazhur...I'm very slow (and bad) at this poetry stuff :sick:

within
her intentions
lies her true self, fleeting,
hanging on to his every word--
lovely!

[mazHur]

sorry mazhur...I'm very slow (and bad) at this poetry stuff :sick:

within
her intentions
lies her true self, fleeting,
hanging on to his every word--
lovely!

lovely,
you came though late
beginners at love face
such a problem for a while
then Phew !!!

[crazefest456]

then phew--
but what? it is
not over yet, oh well,
life offers this on a bronze
platter

[mazHur]

platter
full of sizzling
meat is appetizing
bring it near me and let me have
a bite.

[crazefest456]

a bite
was all that set
in motion those cogs whose
teeth were torn to resounding twang of
cello

[mazHur]

cello,
the big brother
of violin, plays the bass
in a symphony and is food
for love.

[crazefest456]

for love
thy sweet voice rings,
but harsh sounds make
even soulless tremble under
love's knees

[symphony]

oh i sooo love my pseudonym :lol:


for love
we crave, then die
as another loveless
soul, while pendulums swing and clocks
tick on...

edit: and i sooo hate being slow! :lol:

love's knees
give way, and i
feel myself falling, deep
into your thoughts, deeper, though i
stand here...

[crazefest456]

lol
I was thinking about you when I read that :)

I loved that first one!! You weren't being slow...

[mazHur]

tick on...
I know you have
no mind to halt at all
Time is ubiquitous yet it
differs!

[mazHur]

lol
I was thinking about you when I read that :)


craze!

is this a compliment or what??
you think of the devi and she is there !

[crazefest456]

cello,
the big brother
of violin, plays the bass
in a symphony and is food
for love.

:lol: I was thinking about this one...

[mazHur]

:lol: I was thinking about this one...

what a coincidence !:)
I have come to believe in ''magic'' and ''telepathy'',,,,,,,,;)

[symphony]

lol
I was thinking about you when I read that :)

I loved that first one!! You weren't being slow...
:) me honoured! *bow*




you think of the devi and she is there !

devi = goddess
devil = devil

i hope your missing L wasnt a typo :lol:

anyway...


differs
from life and death
and coincides with my
path to the Path, a sojourner
like me...

[mazHur]

:) me honoured! *bow*




devi = goddess
devil = devil

i hope your missing L wasnt a typo :lol:

anyway...


differs
from life and death
and coincides with my
path to the Path, a sojourner
like me...

You can take it any way but that was certainly not a typo !:)


like me
none you will find
in the realm of your dreams
try and tell me when you find one
like me!;)

[ampoule]

like me
there are many
living on the edge, poised
ready to give in to flights of
fancy

[mazHur]

like me
there are many
living on the edge, poised
ready to give in to flights of
fancy

this is a good one ! lovely!

fancy
haunts like a ghost,
I try not to dream of
you but you appear in my dreams
somehow

[symphony]

somehow
i have managed
to escape textbook-land
and ended up here in lit-net!
oh my!

[mazHur]

oh my!
here comes again
the Magic of Bengal
and she makes me tremble from head
to toe !

[firefangled]

To-Toe,
I guess we're not
in Kansas anymore,
and look at my ruby slippers,
how cool!

[mazHur]

how cool!
where did you get
your ruby slippers from?
the beauty of your feet enhance
its looks

[ampoule]

its looks
are unnerving
you should see the goosebumps
and my spine gets very chilly
don't look

[firefangled]

don't look,
the wind rises,
carries you like a bird,
but it's a long way down, enjoy
your tea

[Lbo]

your tea,
miss fairchild,
must be imbibed like so,
with etiquette, manners, and grace
now sip.

[symphony]

now sip
and stir these dreams
which, though achromatic,
will give off coiled white fumes, Lord bless
coffee ...

[crazefest456]

coffee
caffeine goodness
manipulated beans
brewed from corporations fueled by
money

[symphony]

money,
even if stewed
and filled with oyster sauce,
cant be eaten, and yet we go on
struggling...

[crazefest456]

struggling
for the better
tomorrow, exists not
in future generations, no
fortune

[firefangled]

fortune
is what you make
from love, not expecting
a return, wealth without love is
worthless

[mazHur]

worthless
seems this life to
me without my love
take away my life and give me
my love

[firefangled]

my love -
it has been long
since we have seen these words
finish the cinquain, so I say,
stop here

[mazHur]

stop here?
dare you say this
to me who is all love
place your hand on my heart and feel
my love

[ampoule]

my love
is not just felt
but permeates the room
a just-peeled orange waiting to be
eaten

[mazHur]

my love
is not just felt
but permeates the room
a just-peeled orange waiting to be
eaten

Amp, this is really terrific,,,sooo sexy!


eaten
in the day, in
the night is the fruit of
love if presented to lover
with love

[ampoule]

with love
I think of you,
all of you who are here,
here on this site wrapping your words
for ME!

(Merry Christmas to me, Merry Christmas to me...thank you for all of your gifts!)

[mazHur]

for Me
she was not made
I was a born Cobra
and she a Krait with whom cobras
don't cross

[ampoule]

don't cross
your tease but please
circle round me your arms
I feel like falling to your charms
oh you

[firefangled]

oh you,
starlight so far
away, so very bright,
ride the wind for speed, warm my soul
tonight

[CdnReader]

tonight
in moonlit space
shall i twirl in the wind
darkened stars shall smile on my
being

[mazHur]

being
your dog is no
shame for me as I can
then enjoy your love shamelessly
and wag

[crazefest456]

and wag
not your finger
at my mistake, while you
dance around issues that you helped create
loser

that's so mean, but I don't feel angry at anyone...eh, repression...

[Wyoecho]

and wag
a faithful tail
but know the ache of love
betrays my heart and carries me
away

[ampoule]

away
a tropic isle
I see you there looking
with your eyes closed feeling the breeze
of dreams

[mazHur]

of dreams
is made my stuff
I continue to dream
of the beaches of Hawaii
and you

[Wyoecho]

and you
I want no more
your love has turned to ice
and you are not true to my heart
good bye!

[ampoule]

good bye!
celebration
the muck and mire remain
grab your pitchfork and take a bite
is good?

[mazHur]

is good
what you feel good
celebration or
no celebration, it is
you heart!

[crazefest456]

you, HEART!
I spite thee to
a dark inferno
from whence ye shall spring forth, bloody
broke-hearts..

[ampoule]

broke-hearts..
broke backs, broke lives
a might too much fer me
hynotize me mother so I
can sleep

[mazHur]

broke-hearts
are the saviors
of the universal
sentiment of love that keeps you
alive

[ampoule]

LOL I beat you maz by five minutes! ;)

[mazHur]

can sleep
free you from thoughts
of your lost youth in vain
will sleep not cause to torment you
with dreams?

[mazHur]

LOL I beat you maz by five minutes! ;)

nope. I had to reboot my pc which took time,,,,nevertheless I admit you are faster,,,,,and better !! Some of you hailus are beautiful,,,the one I cant forget is the ''peeled orange'' one ! Yummy !

[ampoule]

I am absolutely NOT better.
I'm glad you liked the orange. Thank you.

with dreams
I touch my tongue
grape koolaid, unsweetened
drenches my mouth, makes it water
thirsty

[firefangled]

thirsty
for cool clear words,
the still snow melted pool,
I climb the mountain of this night,
searching

[Wyoecho]

searching
sunset, sunrise?
the painter only knows
brush strokes do not belie the truth
hidden

[amanda_isabel]

hidden
beneath you, but
you haven't any
idea just how much i am
waiting

gee this is a lot harder than it looks! haha

[crazefest456]

waiting
for the storm
to move along paths
woven by blood-sucking twisters
of death

[ampoule]

of death
notorious
and yet so reverant
my feet leave marks as I am dragged
along

[mazHur]

along
the trail you leave
you will find me coming
to carry you back home safely
with love

[ampoule]

with love
there must be time
to ferment the leaven
to rise, to lighten, enliven
kneading

[mazHur]

kneading
has borne no fruit
love has not fermented
her heart remains hard as ever
as stone

[ampoule]

as stone
her heart rolls down
bouncing along mountains
loosening the dirt and debris
landslide

[mazHur]

landslide
victory in love
cannot be possible
with rolling stones unless the whole
slides down

[ampoule]

slides down
into my arms
my little one laughing
but so scared that I won't be there
I am

[mazHur]

I am
wondering at you
you neither show up clear
nor hide away clear of my sight
you nymph!

[Wyoecho]

slides down
like glacier ice
into the dark abyss
not knowing love or tenderness
lost soul

[mazHur]

lost soul
can't find his way
staggers around in search
of love and peace but always falls
headlong

[firefangled]

headlong
I move through life,
my energy a shield,
my light grows wild, like those flowers,
roadside

[ampoule]

roadside
the native waits
for me to give notice
weavings, turquoise, silver and clay
you want?

[dramasnot6]

You want?
Coffee's ready.
Warmth trapped in wrinkle's folds.
The steam faster than gasping youth.
I burn.

[Wyoecho]

I burn
melting away
flowing like a calm stream
soon to disappear forever
long gone

[mazHur]

long gone
is that time when
roses bowed to kiss you
and fill your heart with rouge of love
for me

[Wyoecho]

for me
there is no chance
days run all together
mourning for love together shared
swept away

[firefangled]

away,
another year,
but imagine for me,
in the whole universe, where is
that year?


(Hint: It is with the additional stress of the word "swept," which I omitted to comply with form. :) )

[mazHur]

that year
is in your eyes
but you cannot see it
as no one can see his own nose
or neck

[ampoule]

or neck
would you like to?
come climb in the back seat
let's get to know one another
kiss me

[amanda_isabel]

kiss me
in the corner
secluded, we'll stay there
and explore each valley of skin.
it calls.

[mazHur]

it calls
for the need to
embrace each other and
kiss the petals of the flower
blooming!

[symphony]

blooming
another year
busy and buzzy with
activities, warmth and charmth all
therein...

[ampoule]

charmth...I love that

therein
yes, it's in there
I've been list'ning all night
and here I thought it was broken
silly

[TheFifthElement]

silly
did you think I
couldn't hear you crying
for the moon? Come now, night will be
here soon.

[Wyoecho]

here soon
and waste not time
passion grows in moonlight
surrounded by a veil of stars
love dies

[mazHur]

love dies
and leaves behind
smoldering ashes of
a lifeless soul to wallow in
its fire

[ampoule]

its fire
singes my heart
makes me lust for water
please, just a little to wet my
whistle

[mazHur]

whistle
touches my lips
a shrill runs through my spine
the sky bows down to kiss the earth
madly

[Wyoecho]

madly
the fire burns
flames lapping at my heart
melting away all resistance
give in

[ampoule]

give in
give out give up
give more than you receive
you'll receive more than you asked for
thankful

[mazHur]

thankful
I have to be
for all you have done to
ruin my life with your mad love
Venus !

[ampoule]

Venus
in her blue jeans
oh Jimmy sing to me
I look good in them too, don't I?
covet

[mazHur]

covet
but to get it
you must make the first move
inhibition will only bring
you pain

[firefangled]

you pain
my heart, Venus,
up there in my movie
screen, prettiest girl ever seen,
Jim Dean

[CdnReader]

Jim Dean
in his trademark
blue jeans and black leather
jacket, hair slicked back, eyes piercing
through me.

[ampoule]

through me
you can find it
your passion and your voice
just look into my face, see me
smiling

[Wyoecho]

through me
passes your glance
untrue to me are you
love forsaken for another
hurtful

[mazHur]

smiling
you look pretty
the comfort of my heart
always keep smiling my dear
Barbie !

[ampoule]

Barbie
fire it up now
grill me something yummy
my tummy is growling, feed me
feed me*

*can you tell I have not had breakfast? ;)

[mazHur]

feed me
with the fire of
your love and turn me in
to ashes for a Phoenix to
arise

[symphony]

arise
from my dreams when
the winds are breathing low,
be in me, my pen, indian wind!
drift me...

[firefangled]

drift me
like a snowflake
blowing in the cold wind,
catch me on your warm tongue, and then,
melt me

[mazHur]

drift me
to the land of
the Sunder bans where a
tigress asleep may devour me
my heart !

[mazHur]

melt me
like the snow on
the peak of the mountain
and raise me in the sea of love
like waves

[ampoule]

drift me
like a snowflake
blowing in the cold wind,
catch me on your warm tongue, and then,
melt me

melt me
like chocolate chips
but keep your eye on me
beware if I get scorched, the taste
dreadful

[symphony]

melt me,
i'll be the gold
in the bowl, waiting on
your breakfast table in endless
sweetness....


edit:
busy day i see.

dreadful
and surreal--
and perhaps a hundred
other adjectives to go with,
define....

[ampoule]

drift me
to the land of
the Sunder bans where a
tigress asleep may devour me
my heart !

my heart
open all night
come sit at the counter
have a cup of java while it
races

[ampoule]

melt me,
i'll be the gold
in the bowl, waiting on
your breakfast table in endless
sweetness....

man oh man...I am definitely too slow...:D :lol:

sweetness
drip down on me
like a flower shower
and I will dry with your petals
softly

[CdnReader]

softly
and with the touch
of a quiet whiteness
winter's beauty brings us gently
aware

[firefangled]

aware,
of fine cuisine,
I season and stir, taste,
then, when the temperature is right,
the fire

[CdnReader]

the fire
in my belly
drives me, determinedly,
into the next phase of my own
madness

[Wyoecho]

madness
befriends my day
and keeps my soul yearning
looking for that which is not there
hopeless

[CdnReader]

hopeless
can be madness,
stirred up thoughts, increasing
non-existence of what is past,
long gone.

[ampoule]

hopeless
less hope you say
never, no, let me help
my hand gently raises your head
now drink

[CdnReader]

now drink
and fill your glass
again as we raise a
toast to last year's tribulations
long gone.

;)

[firefangled]

long gone,
now drink today,
the bitter-sweet secret,
drink life full, never mind what spills,
taste it

[Wyoecho]

long gone
now start anew
leave sad memories be
they can only bring more sorrow
new day

[ampoule]

long gone,
now drink today,
the bitter-sweet secret,
drink life full, never mind what spills,
taste it

taste it
how very sweet
yet it makes me pucker
but I always ask for too much
you leave

[mazHur]

you leave
nothing for me
not a drop of blessed
wine that I may taste to brighten
my days

[firefangled]

my days,
often brightened
by the surprise of snow,
serendipitous imprints like
angels

[ampoule]

angels
tread upon me
leaving tiny footprints
of celestial music, my ears
ringing

[firefangled]

ringing,
your ears expand
to hear the galaxies
collide like sweet celestial chimes
listen

[CdnReader]

listen
to my breathing
listen to my heartbeat,
fluttering as wild butterflies,
my life

[Wyoecho]

my life
shared with someone
makes my heart purr inside
like kittens sleeping in the sun

content
a feeling for
only fools, as
only fools are satisfied, so
dream on

(copied lyrics from billy joel - vienne (changed them a bit so they would fit lol!))

[Wyoecho]

dream on
of things to come
the future will replace
all your troubles from past moments
will fade

[mazHur]

will fade
on the slate of
memory the moments
we spent together in love
with time

[xlxlauraxlx]

with time
the deepest wound
heals, even the wound of
a love, can heal we just have
to wait

[xlxlauraxlx]

with time
the deepest wound
can heal, even that of
love, we just have to be pacient
and wait

[mazHur]

to wait
for you to come
is like stars waiting all
night for the moon that is kidnapped
by clouds

[xlxlauraxlx]

By Clouds
the birds fly, to
watch them, they are freedom,
everything we should want to be,
everything

[CdnReader]

^^^ too many syllables :p

everything
is too much, but
all is never enough...
a puzzling question without
answer

[xlxlauraxlx]

Answer,
the question please
i should not have to ask
twice, because i might as well be
the queen

bit big headed but its the only thing i could think of

[mazHur]

the queen
bee laid on eggs
and filled the entire hive
with new creatures to get a
new queen

[xlxlauraxlx]

New queen
has no gold crown
just his heart and I hope
she's glad of it, because it's what
i want

[CdnReader]

i want
to pluck your strings
as though you were a sweet
cello, tuned to universal
rhythms

[xlxlauraxlx]

Rhythms,
at one piont you
and another have been
in time, moving to the same beat
simple.

[mazHur]

simple
may seem to you
but love is intricate
and cannot be had with simple
heart beats

[ampoule]

heart beats
some are gentle
some are full of passion
give my heart something to beat for
find it

[mazHur]

find it
in your own heart
if you are serious
dilly dallying would not help
in love

[Wyoecho]

in love
I cannot be
my heart has turned to stone
like granite spires upon the hill
lifeless

[CdnReader]

lifeless
grey and worn out
life's blood dripping, leaving
only an empty shell behind,
escaped

[ampoule]

escaped
convict lover
why were you not watching
he's gone now, all is lost, he has
the key

[CdnReader]

the key
to my quiet
studio is hidden
under the orange flowerpot
come in

[xlxlauraxlx]

Come in,
from the cold, and
sit by the fire, and
drink hot cocoa with me till dawn,
lovely

[mazHur]

lovely
birds on the beach
drenched with water, shivering,
look for some warm niche for shelter
on earth

[xlxlauraxlx]

On earth,
we will soon find
peace, like that in heaven
We will rejoice for the end of
hatred

[mazHur]

hatred
begets hatred
provokes people to kill
spreads unrest and chaos on earth
of God

[ampoule]

of God
no east or west
two eyes, a mouth, a nose,
sometimes even ears and that heart
beating

[mazHur]

beating
your head against
the wall's no solution
face the realities of life
with smile

[Wyoecho]

with smile
sometimes tell lies
to hide the evil deed
and cover up for miscreants
beware!

[TheFifthElement]

Beware
the creeping stain
travelling up the wall,
it seeks you out, searching for life's
meaning

[CdnReader]

meaning
cannot be found
in the words on this page
but in the hearts and minds of the
tellers

[ampoule]

tellers
is it babble
now talk to me he says
I am struck dumb, my lips are sealed
no trust

[CdnReader]

no trust
can overcome
a spiteful heart and a
soul full of destructive hatred
too black

[xlxlauraxlx]

Too black
is your heart, too
lost is your soul, i can
only hope you will finally
be saved

[CdnReader]

be saved
by the loving,
by the sacredness of
life itself, as you reach ever
higher

[xlxlauraxlx]

Higher
Higher we soar
As the world gets smaller,
We grow incrediably tall, we're
Flying

[mazHur]

Flying
it came into
my sweet dreams and pecked
at my heart perpetually
for love

[CdnReader]

for love
will you stand here?
for love, will you hold me?
for love, will you draw me into
your arms?

[xlxlauraxlx]

You arms?
Are they not to
hold me? Not to protect?
Are they not where i belong? Yes.
They are.

[Wyoecho]

they are
not what they seem
shapes and colors moving
meaningless like thoughts in a dream
tangled

[CdnReader]

tangled
in my lost thoughts
a reverie of times
long gone, forgotten in the cold
white mist

[mazHur]

white mist
surrounds the thoughts
yet the mind keeps groping
for the sweet love that you once had
for me!

[schadenfreude]

For me,
the world spins but
you would not know that.
Purple daffodils and white clouds
blossom.

[CdnReader]

^^^ Love this one, Schad....

blossom
into my palms,
waiting hands will surround
and protect you from all that may
hurt you

[ampoule]

hurt you
I must do it
later will be too late
I cannot tease your attentions
and thrive

[CdnReader]

and thrive
under my touch
the delicate velvet
leaves and petals, thirsting for my
kindness

[ampoule]

kindness
sewing pjs
spinach from the garden
the stewardship of love given
for you

can you tell I just read MotherHubbard's blog? ;)

[CdnReader]

^^^ yes, i sure can :D

for you
i offer my
friendship, a quiet lull
amongst the chaos of our day's
nonsense

[Il Penseroso]

nonsense
in small drops falls
unconscious trickle, words
accumulate, pull together,
a wave

[Wyoecho]

a wave
that rises high
and breaks upon the shore
spreads life across the sandy beach
renew
