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

[itsbonbonxp]

canvas,
such emptiness
and now the colors dance
imagination is painted
wonder.

[qimissung]

I love yours, ampoule-adorable. And apparently you did have three in you, firefangled-brilliantly done-you have set the bar. All of these on this page are so good I think they could be anthologized or published or something!

[alakungfu]

wonder
at the unmixed
emotion and at the
unexpected regard in your
child's eyes

[asilef73]

child's eyes
gaze with wonder
at this world we take for
granted. an innocence we must
protect.

[mazHur]

protect
your eyes form the
glare of burning rays of
sun by wearing cool glasses of
moon light!

[asilef73]

moonlight
skitters across
the floor, onto the bed
and across my face as i wait
for what?

[mazHur]

for what?
Please don't ask me;
it's your own life and world
live the way as you may prefer
to have

[qimissung]

to have
art lodged in my
soul incite a riot
of incendiary color
banquet

[mazHur]

banquet
in your honor
I'll hold every year
Oh, my fat hen keep laying eggs
golden!

[firefangled]

Golden
aspen hillside,
your Winter masquerade,
Colorado, I can hear you
whisper

[Sarasvati21]

whisper
stay awake while
we remember back, once,
to that time I didn't miss you...
kiss me

[Page Sniffer]

Kiss me
before my dream
ends, before I wake to
the reality of being
alone.

[CdnReader]

alone
in this deepened
mystery....wait for what?
a ripe plum, a finished novel,
and you

[Sarasvati21]

and you,
you'll never see
how much this means to me...
open your eyes and look at me,
happy

[CdnReader]

happy
and expectant
knowing the best years are
still ahead and preparing my
best smile

[Page Sniffer]

Best smile --
reflecting warmth
of a loving heart. A
heart all should aspire to have -- sans
malice.

[CdnReader]

malice
in a teacup
over-steeped, stain-darkened,
leaving a dark slash of anger
on lips

[firefangled]

On lips,
shine the moistures
of passion or raindrops,
the red drop that says danger or
submit

[CdnReader]

submit
within seascapes
give up all to the crash
of waves -- monuments to the night's
fury

[Page Sniffer]

Fury
becons me, as
a moth to love's flame. For
if not embraced, I'll not have lived
at all.

[mazHur]

at all
having nothing
to say a lark appeared
from the sky then a rapture from
the heart

[Riesa]

the heart
is about the
stupidest mother ****ing
organ our lovely body
has made

[firefangled]

has made
the brain a pawn,
with its steady druming,
pretzel feelings, mustard tongue
lip lick

[Page Sniffer]

Lip Lick
the Bonobo
monkey, flung banana
peels wearing rocket underwear
in space.

[gordo]

in space
there is no time
no time for regret
no time for love, hate or remorse
pity

[alakungfu]

pity,
stuff of reprieves,
love in a cancelled cheque
speaks for itself to the partner
in crime

[sprinks]

in crime,
perpetrators
get away every day,
there is no justice, there is no
revenge

[Oniw17]

revenge
solace to tears
placater of my fears
my former owner, you I veer
afraid

[alakungfu]

afraid
of the next breath
that leaves your mouth, a guess,
replete anticipation of
spoken word

[Page Sniffer]

Spoken
word, broken words,
do we do words justice?
Enjoy them as tools to create
beauty.

[asilef73]

beauty
lies in every
scab and scar of life if
you just look at them from the right
angle

[Page Sniffer]

Angle
you did indeed,
hooking my fingers to
meet your witty challenge upon
the keys.

[qimissung]

the keys
to the kingdom
the muse withheld from me
words and not music reign here, c'est
la vie

[Page Sniffer]

La Vie
En Rose; "life in
the pink", through rose colored
glasses -- Piaf the song bird sang.
BRAVO!

[CdnReader]

BRAVO!
hands clap, tandem,
applause lifting overhead,
and the diva bows, smiles, departs,
gliding.

[mazHur]

gliding
in the stream of
golden wind my fairy
queen disembarked at my heart's place,
all joy !

[CdnReader]

all joy
and no sadness
creates an imbalance
to be corrected only through
extremes

[mazHur]

extremes
are beautiful
like the far twinkling stars
like the sun that brightens the day
full pitch!

[Beautifull]

full pitch!
turn up the notch.
for if we don't do that,
our lives will grow dark inside
our hearts.

[mazHur]

our hearts
only yearn for
a common thing called love
but we just sit at home and watch
TeeVee

[Beautifull]

TeeVee
also known as
T.V.; television
the box we watch with our,big,open
wide eyes

[mazHur]

wide eyes
open ears fixed
at the idiot box do
not please two hearts separated
in space.

[CdnReader]

in space
where comets burn
out and planets collide,
i found you hiding in a bright
sunburst

[firefangled]

sunburst
from a gold chain
suns hanging from your ears
the moon and the stars, your sad eyes
my love

[CdnReader]

my love
grows large when you
take me flying through the
galaxy, skimming stars into
crystal

[Page Sniffer]

Crystal
stars and silk spun
from sunburst rays, woven
with the cloths of heaven like Yeats,
give thee.

[CdnReader]

give thee
my wealth and give
thee my jewels and give
thee all that i have saved across
all time

[mazHur]

all time
she remarks 'she
will give thee all she has''
but for poor love's content throw a
cherry!

[CdnReader]

cherry
trees droop heavy
deep red fruits clustered, filled
with that deep red juice, redolent,
dripping

[mazHur]

dripping
from the azure
sky a blue eyed fairy
descends and fills my heart with love
for you

[firefangled]

Dripping,
chocolate ice cream
mashed with fresh raspberries,
over the crisp waffle cone edge -
lick it

[CdnReader]

^^ oh yeah oh yeah... don't forget the :banana:

lick it
purple stick-it
crumbled bits of shiny
sweet candy, crunched between my teeth,
bite it!

[Page Sniffer]

Bite it!
Bite it? Yes, bite
it! It? My neck, you nit.
His vampire instructions were in
Sanskrit.

[mazHur]

Sanskrit
they say is a
dead language like Latin
but frankly I still find my love
in Hind

[qimissung]

:lol: Hilarious Page Sniffer!

[Page Sniffer]

qimissung -- Thanks! I have my moments -- :idea:

[Page Sniffer]

In hind
sight I need to
apologize mazHur!
My intent was not to derail
your words.

[CdnReader]

your words
scattered mindless
drifting off the edge of
the page before me, all wet and
weeping

[firefangled]

Weeping
Willow whistle,
whittle and blow its sound
slid out of the loose green spring bark,
listen

[mazHur]

weeping
made her eyes swell
up like the Yangtze Kiang
turning her face as yellow as
mustard

[mazHur]

listen!
I cannot keep
pace with young women who
are too fast and agile for an
old man!

[firefangled]

listen!
I cannot keep
pace with young women who
are too fast and agile for an
old man!

Must be the bird thing...first Virgil and now MazHur...alas, I too am an old man, but I'm quick as a hummingbird. :lol: :D :lol:

[mazHur]

old man!
bragging about
his alacrity fell
down the bog and could not get up
again!

[mazHur]

Must be the bird thing...first Virgil and now MazHur...alas, I too am an old man, but I'm quick as a hummingbird. :lol: :D :lol:

good metabolism,
good chemistry
Bravo,
keep it up !:) ;)

[firefangled]

good metabolism,
good chemistry
Bravo,
keep it up !:) ;)

Thanks, Maz. Very funny!:D

[qimissung]

again
my love left me
the wind whistling through
the hollow space left inside me
I weep

[mazHur]

I weep
my tears fall
like dew on the green leaves
no bulbul to peck at the pearls
how sad!

[qimissung]

how sad
born to sin, the
world corrupt, but our love-
pure-god's press it to their lips in
rapture

[CdnReader]

how sad
that we have failed
to see the beauty in
a dewdrop, a rain puddle, a
child's tear

rapture
of a rainbow
colours blend and mix in
a kaleidoscope of radiance,
bursting

[mazHur]

child's tear
flowing on his
cheeks like petals of a
flower drenched in cool morning dew
weeping1

[mazHur]

bursting
with mad anger
crushing her dirty teeth
the ***** furiously chased my
shadow!

[firefangled]

shadow,
what were you when
the day was a stranger,
where did you hide when night was fear,
dark one?

[CdnReader]

dark one
who hides away...
rubbing his hands with glee,
greedily slurping up all our
best dreams

[mazHur]

best dreams
only descend
during moments of sound
and undisturbed sleep when moon is
waning

[qimissung]

waning
love all unbound
time pales, darkness hovers,
a teacup falls-dreams seep into
the earth

[mazHur]

the earth
was made for us
it's our propriety
yet we cannot roam about it
freely

[Beautifull]

freely.
something we all
still don't get the concept
we are still trapped by these things called
feelings.

[mazHur]

feelings
in animals
or angels you will not find;
unlike the humans they live by
instinct

[Beautifull]

instinct.
we all have it
it keeps us safe and sound
from predators and things alike
survive.

[CdnReader]

survive
to the end of
this long long day, walking
towards tomorrow, and never
relent

[mazHur]

relent
and you are gone
far far away from goal
persistence is what one needs to
succeed

[Il Penseroso]

succeed
between the dark
dapplegating moon and
split oblivion, crest myth in
shadow

[mazHur]

shadow
follows you when
you walk facing Sun
it leads you to hell when it's dusk
oh Jeez !

[ampoule]

Oh Jeez!
Look what you've done
You have stolen my heart
Now don't go 'way, be here to stay
moonlight

[qimissung]

moonlight
photographic
image of your beliefs
a veil of caprice which entices
beware

[CdnReader]

beware
the days of wine
and roses, for they are
only precursors to the dark
bleeding

[mazHur]

bleeding
heart would go on
beating with the tick tick
of the clock as long as the drip
is served

[CdnReader]

is served
or isn't served
which side of the net is
that damn ball coming from now? help!
i'm lost

[mazHur]

i'm lost
she for whom I
ruined my life now says
you are good for nothing, O wretch,
Get lost!

[CdnReader]

Get lost
in a world bound
only by limp bars and
imagined barriers built of
just thought

[mazHur]

Get lost
in a world bound
only by limp bars and
imagined barriers built of
just thought

Good one !

just thought
after seeing
your picture whether you
look like it or it looks like you
show up!

[CdnReader]

(thanks, Maz!)

show up
with your bells on,
jingling, if you wish, but
always grinning, and making me
giggle

[qimissung]

I like that one too, Reader. Good job.

giggle
little little
can I take this happy
sound and tuck it in a locket?
don't stop

[firefangled]

don't stop,
chuckle, buckle
me over with laughter
after I amuse and fuse,
blow blues

[CdnReader]

blow blues,
saxophone me,
that low wail permeates
my brain and melts the cells holding
me up

[firefangled]

me up
the brass, high class,
then down with a slow sound,
in the cig fog susseration,
take five

[CdnReader]

Take five
minutes, roll 'em
up in a ball and give
'em a toss into tomorrow.
Bonus!

[firefangled]

I like this one, CR!


Take five
minutes, roll 'em
up in a ball and give
'em a toss into tomorrow.
Bonus!


Bonus!
in tomorrow
your five minutes are there
waiting in the air, besure to
catch it

[CdnReader]

(thanks, FF!)

Catch it
and secure it
for found time is easy
to waste on necessities, not
pure joy

[qimissung]

pure joy-
found time wasted
thinking of castles, kings,
metaphors and other things-to
daydream

[CdnReader]

cat tales
to warm our hearts
huddled around the fire
telling stories, one by one, as
we sip

[qimissung]

Dang, your fast Reader! (and good)

Here's the original:

Pure joy
when found time finds
you-whole days wasted on
metaphors, similes, little
cat tales

[CdnReader]

we sip
and we chat, free
of constraints, friends from far,
now sharing a bottle of fine
Merlot

[qimissung]

Merlot
the hour grows
late, the moon sets; neither
our thoughts or our glasses run dry
to us

[CdnReader]

to us
the world spins on
an unequal axis,
wobbling in a crazy tilting
pattern

[mazHur]

pattern
descends from the
sky and transforms into
an hour-glass figure of love
so sweet.

[CdnReader]

so sweet
peach juice dribbles
into my palms, down to
my elbows, into my lover's
sweet mouth

[mazHur]

sweet mouth
honey sweet words
trickling like dew drops from
rose petals make the moth whirl round
the lips

[asilef73]

the lips,
soft burnished rose,
that elate with their smile
and furnish the laugh which infects
my own.

[mazHur]

my own
heart is not my
own anymore; it sides
with the one who has stolen it
how sad!

[Riesa]

how sad,
assorted June
swept by old hack July
done under quite well by August
brute Fall.

[firefangled]

Brute Fall,
colorful suit
of tawny hues, hidden
in the hawthorn and juniper
your blues

[CdnReader]

your blues
underlie the
reds that pepper me, and
together we combine into
purple

[qimissung]

purple
blood under skin
you gather me in your
rich dark intent, swirl me like wine,
savor

[CdnReader]

savour
this swirling taste,
let it build under your
tongue and take you to far-distant
places

[qimissung]

places
to go, people
to see, blackbird singing
in the old oak tree; remember
me, love

[Beautifull]

me, love?
let me laugh please.
because when i do love,
i know i will receive it back,
broken.

[firefangled]

broken
by sleeplessness
I sort through the debris
of attempted dreams, for this short
poem

[CdnReader]

poem
in shards, shattered,
the words fell apart, spilt,
unhinged by punctuation or
grammar

[qimissung]

grammar
evil disguised
as a sweet old lady
underneath the sugar and spice
a wolf

[CdnReader]

a wolf
shivering, grey,
nose pointed to the snow,
gauging the coming storm, knowing
its fury.

[firefangled]

its fury
wrapped around calm,
hurricane, a blind dog
sniffing over the warm ocean
howling

[CdnReader]

howling
fills the empty
northern prairie, inserts
itself in the crevices of
silence

[mazHur]

silence
lurks all around
everybody is quiet
am i in a cemetery
or hell!

[Beautifull]

or Hell?
instead of love?
it sounds like a good deal
'cause when i love, i might as well
be there.

[mazHur]

be there
on time and see
that you don't forget your
air ticket lest you want to miss
the flight

[CdnReader]

the flight
may be short, but
the view will be so
unforgettable as to cause
great gasps

[mazHur]

great gasps
great sentiments
great are the ways of love
great are the aspirations of
lovers

[CdnReader]

lovers
come together
when the silv'ry moon slips
behind the indigo shadows
of night

[mazHur]

of night
I think as it
draws nearer and dense
sleep fled from eyes, no chance of dreams
sweet dreams!

[CdnReader]

sweet dreams
of tomorrow
winging away on white
clouds of hope and faith, never to
come true

[mazHur]

come true
come false but the
truth will always prevail
true dreams will impart meaning to
future

[CdnReader]

future
dreams are only
imaginings, distant
pasts forever recycled and
reborn

[mazHur]

reborn
in sleep's dark womb
dreams come to brighten your
days, your hopes, aspirations and
wishes

[CdnReader]

Wishes
are like fishes,
or so a wise man said.
What does that mean? There's lots? Got fins?
They swim?

[mazHur]

They swim
as they cannot
walk on earth; fishes are
like wishes served with tartar sauce
on moon!

[CdnReader]

on moon
and stars and far
galaxies, i pledge to
love you for all eternity
and more

[Beautifull]

and more.
i can give you
not just love in my heart
but loyalty steadfast and true
Honest.

[firefangled]

Honest,
the path to joy
is disclosure, secrets
are pauses, the eye's light flickers,
dark forms

[asilef73]

dark forms
resolve, define
themselves in memory.
malevolent towers of past
evil.

[CdnReader]

evil
in the hands of
madmen, an awful mix
that threatens us with unprepared
endings

[Beautifull]

ending
last and worse part
of every good friendship
everyone hates but everyone
goes through.

[Pendragon]

goes through
the door, banging
words thrown in hurt, anger
regrets, oh, I have had a few...
sorry...

[CdnReader]

sorry
for the big mess
i know i should've been
more careful with the hot pink paint
oopsy

[Pendragon]

oopsy!
Did I do that?
Excuse me, please, kind Sir!
Next time I will leave a big sign:
Wet Paint...

[CdnReader]

Wet Paint
palms of green, blue,
red, yellow.... leaving prints
on the walls, floors, everywhere but
paper

[qimissung]

paper
empty, waiting
for the labored musings
of sweaty students longing for
release

[CdnReader]

release
a cloud of doves,
or butterflies perhaps,
anything that filters dreams to
real stuff

[Il Penseroso]

real stuff,
an impulse cloud
figured in, emptiness
vital to players we dress to
shine grey

[ampoule]

shine grey
any color
touched by your eyes and smile
bursts like fireworks against the sky
explode

[CdnReader]

explode
in imagined
redemption, bursts of fire
encompassing all, and falling
to earth.

[qimissung]

to earth
goddess divine
adored circumference
know you well my life's geography
dear sphere

[mazHur]

dear sphere
rotate on your
axis like the good earth
shine my days and brighten my nights
dear sphere!

[CdnReader]

dear sphere
twirls in my palm
scattering shiny winks
aggies polished to perfection,
glass orbs

[qimissung]

glass orbs
tucked, synchronized
heedless, diving into
turbulent green welter of life
full weight

[ampoule]

full weight
pressed upon me
pinning me down, gladly
the look in my eyes only makes
you float

[CdnReader]

you float
quietly by,
then i catch you in the
peripheral, now moving with
quick jerks

[asilef73]

quick jerks,
that sever the
heartstrings, encourage your
rose colored world to finally
dissolve

[CdnReader]

dissolve
me in your eyes,
let me swim in your skin,
amusing myself, tickling your
insides

[mazHur]

insides
there's no feeling
feeling starts its journey
from your lips and travels downwards
like rain!

[CdnReader]

Like rain
I fall to you.
Your arms capture, surround.
Head falls back, limbs go limp. I can
trust you.

[mazHur]

trust you
are keeping fine
without me in your clime
what if you forgot me, my love,
with time !

[CdnReader]

with time
the universe
will expand beyond what
we think to be infinity
who knew?

[mazHur]

who knew
a time will come
when you will not be you
I will not be I; both will blend
in one

[CdnReader]

In one
instant of time,
in one breeze blowing by,
in one passing of a season,
there's life.

[mazHur]

In one
instant of time,
in one breeze blowing by,
in one passing of a season,
there's life.

nice!

there's life
bubbling with joy
in every passing moment
don't count moments of life, live this
moment

[Beautifull]

moment
sacred moment
when i gazed into your eyes
and when i found out that i was
in love.

[CdnReader]

in love
with love, they say,
is a roundabout way
of saying you're enamored with
life's gifts

[qimissung]

life's gifts
lent by gracious
universe~ours for a
day~to toil, to love, to spend,
then gone

[CdnReader]

then gone
on a breeze-edge
like dandelion seeds
looking for a corner in which
to root

[mazHur]

to root
ain't that easy
for a dried dwindled twig-
it might sprout if watered with some
old wine

[symphony]

old wine--
golden evening
with the gaming gold teemed--
the windows in the north bring in
gold winds

[mazHur]

gold winds
inebriate
and make young hearts swing with
yearning for someone's company
some love!

[symphony]

some love
are loved with skin,
cutting through which the heart
is never felt, the flesh burns white
underneath

[mazHur]

underneath
lies the treasure
the deeper you dig in
the chances of fulfillment will
increase!

[symphony]

increase
the depths of selves,
grow them within the souls,
in the darkest of nights, cry out,
"Me. Here."

[mazHur]

Me. Here
You, there yet we
claim to live on the same
earth without any sense of time
or space

[CdnReader]

or space
envelops me
all outside is empty
desolate loneliness crushes
all hope

[mazHur]

all hope
but only those
who act achieve their goal
unless you kicked the ball you'll miss
the goal!

[CdnReader]

the goals
hovers just there
an inch from fingertips
yet a light-year from achievement
don't quit!

[mazHur]

don't quit
there is more to
come in the near future
just come closer in my arms and
kiss me!

[CdnReader]

kiss me
right here, on the
cheek.... smile your brilliant smile
and twinkle those sparkling eyes..... I'm
smitten

[mazHur]

smitten
by words from a
distance of ten thouseand
miles! what will you do if we were
nearby?

[CdnReader]

nearby
i have more love
than i can manage, and yet
some of it strangles without fail
must fly

[mazHur]

must fly
to a different
land where excess of love
fizzles away without strangling
my heart

[symphony]

my heart
it beats on with
incredible patience
days and months and years and decades
go by

[mazHur]

go by
days,weeks,months,years
never mind; group not life
in moments but moments in one
moment!

[symphony]

moment
fails to notice
what it gains, slowly
adding up to the wider spheres
of time.

[mazHur]

of time
it's useless to
complain; it's up to us
to make the most of it when young
and strong!

[CdnReader]

and strong
binds of thick twine
wrap us together in
this life, this crazy life so we
can't run

[mazHur]

can't run
but atleast you
can try to wriggle out
and heave a sigh of relief in
fresh air

[Oniw17]

fresh air
new phases dare
to challenge me to stare
down opposition with a glare
but where?

[CdnReader]

but where
will i find the
strength to carry this weight,
unless others will assist me....
please help

[Oniw17]

please help
I'm stuck down here
Can you please help me up?
Every time I climb, I miss out
On life

[mazHur]

On life
don't put the blame
life becomes a burden
when you start feeling weak and frail
have heart!

[CdnReader]

have heart,
sing out loud and
strong.... let the world know that
you will be here, even as we
falter

[Oniw17]

falter
accept your seed
had you waited to reap
you might have something for yourself
in debt

[CdnReader]

in debt
to my eyeballs
but oh gosh was it fun
spending all that money on all
those toys

[Oniw17]

those toys
that's what they are
all those miniscule ants
working for their fat overlords
fearing

[CdnReader]

fearing
the next play, watch
your opponents' eyes for
signs of bluffing and guard your cards
from sight

[Oniw17]

from sight
remove yourself
Make no sound in the least
If you can't save your life, then cheat
You've won

[CdnReader]

You've won
when you think you've
won, it's as simple as
believing in yourself and your
great might

* Too much procrastinating.... back to the books with me.... whoosh! *

[Oniw17]

great might
is for crushing
be humble stay low
wait for the oppurtunity
then strike

[qimissung]

then strike
out for the west
go, untroubled, into
the land where your dreams await you~
take them

[CdnReader]

take them
with you across
the millennia, these
memories that shine, surround and
protect

[mazHur]

protect
your beauty from
the scorching heat of sun
lest it tarnishes and makes you
copper!

[CdnReader]

copper,
jade, ruby, gold,
rich hues that populate
an inner world, bright-jeweled with
wisdom

[mazHur]

wisdom
it's not to catch
a burning coal to see
whether it burns your hand or not
ask me!

[CdnReader]

ask me
where they have gone
and I'll show you the dim
grey footprints, leading through the dark
forest

[symphony]

forest--
rising from the black horizons
otherwise blank in their platforms--
green sheen

[mazHur]

forest
engulfed in wild
fire; leaves, branches and trunks
wracked into ashes, birds fleeing
for life

[symphony]

buhahaha i was first! *chuckles and dances away*

[mazHur]

yeah, you are always fast, Banglar Jadu!

[mazHur]

green sheen
of your silken
green sari makes my heart
beat faster, is it the sari
or you

for life
has ironies
and what we want and do
fade away in fate's twisty traits
someday

Edit: Okay i couldnt beat u this time :lol: .

("......is it the sari
or you" -------> definitely me! what are saris without upbeat ladies?! :D :lol: )


or you,
my darling friend,
could not devise praises
in wonderful worlds of words, sought
in me

[mazHur]

someday
a cool breeze will
blow from the greener world
and quench the fire of my heart with
one touch

[CdnReader]

one touch
is all i need
to fall, senseless, dreaming,
unconscious to all the world brings
this day

ofcourse, its YOU! A sari is worthless if worn by someone other than you; it won't have the proverbial green sheen!

[mazHur]

one touch

this day
belongs to you
or me I do not know;
you are in my eyes, am in yours
no walls!

[symphony]

*whistles*
:lol:


This day
has brought to me
a world of thoughts, passing
by like sudden flashes of lights
long gone.

Edit: Duh!

No walls
can or will part
minds in unison. Us,
we live lives to argue, what do
we know?

[mazHur]

we know
enough to know
what is in your fold what's
in mine; it's all up to us now
to choose!

[symphony]

to choose,
you may, decide
where: here we're bound in hours
of pretexts, bound in blind senses
of goals...

[mazHur]

to choose,
you may, decide
where: here we're bound in hours
of pretexts, bound in blind senses
of goals...

wow, this is too romantic for me!!
well done!;)

of goals
is good to think,
of ambitions one must;
this is your life you must decide
freely!:)

[symphony]

Freely
into the fall.
I fall with the others,
the other prejudiced souls, all.
We fall.

[mazHur]

We fall
if we fail to
stand ; falling doesn't mean
you cannot stand again;Robert
Bruce proved.

[qimissung]

Bruce proved
persistence is
all~it can unite a
nation, or just we two. Will You?
I do.

[qimissung]

one touch

unconscious to all the world brings

This is beautiful!!!

[CdnReader]

Thanks, Qim! :)

* * * * *

I do,
and I feel, and
I move, and I think, and
I despair, and I exult, and
I am.

[mazHur]

I am
you say but you
hardly know who you are
or where you'll go one day wages
been done!

[CdnReader]

^^^ Congrats on 2,000 posts, Maz. :)

* * * * *

been done,
been there, been here,
been lost, been found again,
been up, been over, been around,
been me.

:D

[mazHur]

thank you very much, CR.:)
hope you had a nice day!

been me
been you been us
been what not, yet have been
where I have been and you have been
been one.:)

[CdnReader]

As far as days go, 'twas alright.... thanks for asking.


been me
been you been us
been what not, yet have been
where I have been and you have been
been one.:)

Nice retort! :)

* * * * *

been one
of those days, you
know the kind where nothing
quite goes the way you had planned it
oh well!

[mazHur]

thanks!

oh well!
but sequel to
my story is yet to
come but I really don't know
when,how?

[CdnReader]

when, how
will this resolve....
children killing children,
machine guns slung, askew, on thin
shoulders

[mazHur]

shoulders
burdened with guns
are not the solution
to eradicate an abstract
villain

[CdnReader]

villain
dark face inside
dark hood, crouching in dark
alleys, catch the unsuspecting
naive

[mazHur]

naive
and gullible
some people get impressed
by outer appearances and
suffer

[alakungfu]

suffer
rife undue guilt
for the accidental
discharge and whole fragmentation
of vice

[CdnReader]

of vice
and of virtue
humankind waffles in
indecision, moving between
extremes

[qimissung]

extremes
of weather-eyes
of fire, cold heart, unyielding
edifice of your disdain; I
depart

[asilef73]

depart
your dark caging.
soar above the confines
of our current reality.
sweet dreams.

[mazHur]

sweet dreams
are no more there
all i have is sleepless
nights, eyes gazing at the stars for
my love

[CdnReader]

my love
has wandered off
looking for you, always
vigilant, never careless or
flippant

[qimissung]

flippant
jester making
light of the dark, juggling
feelings as if they were shiny
baubles

[mazHur]

my love
has wandered off
looking for you, always
vigilant, never careless or
flippant

congats CR on touching the 2000 mark!:)

[mazHur]

baubles
pose themselves as
electrons and protons
form the substance of universe
whatnot?

[qimissung]

baubles

Clever!

[qimissung]

what, not
again, my love?
I can never tire of
repeating twixt dark and dawn- I
love you

[asilef73]

"love you."
silence thunders
in the void left by your
absent response. curse myself
a fool.

[Oniw17]

a fool
a citizen
whatever you call it
I refuse to be part of it
leave me
