Thank you, kiz paws! Here's one one a different topic:
Love
Life finds milder melodies.
Only laughter sings.
Virtue wipes away decay.
Even frowns grow wings.
Exquisite, YesNo...:thumbsup:
Thank you, kiz paws! Here's another acrostic:
Bloom
Bright noon, day,
Laugher, play
On through night
On fresh sight,
Moon-round light.
Evolution
Something mysterious
Said to have begun
Since time immemorable
When will it meet its End
No one knows for sure.
A fog where a brain used to be
wasting in the sludgeland called youth
well trained by the father
who owes nothing
slivers of truth
lay near
Sleepkess nights
Stole my dreams
All i can see is real
No illusions no fantasies
Nothing to solace the heart
Nothing but roof and walls
Like someone trapped alive
In a grave
with eyes open.

Queen Elizabeth's lips - Pines sway
ever so lazily - a Monarch

I so love my sleep
without so lost and withered
it's such a deep thing
and a short catnap as well
when she cries I feel helpless

My poem offering later today at our poetry workshop: (Adult Nursery Rhyme)
If All The World Were Poets
If all the world were poets,
And ink sold by the gallon,
If all the stars were accessible,
Where would we hang our hats ?
If all the world were Legos,
All colors of the rainbow,
If we played as children play,
Would there be any homeless ?

If the world was more full:
of colors
of laughter
of games and parties.
If children learnt to gaze
Into each otherīs eyes
And didnīt sit side by side
Each immersed in his own
fra
gi
le
world
If everyone owned all homes
And didnīt have his own
Would there be less homeless?
Itīs one old, old dream.
But where did it go?
If only... I struggle with the thought.

bougainvilleas tease bees
with vibrant colors and scent
their thorny vines a challenge
to birds who like to perch while
hummingbirds will flit and sip
crowding lazy butterflies

unrelenting punishing heat

Quite timely... love the form... enjoyed the poem and its resolution :)

leave it to me to lose my mind so
- it's here someplace, misplaced -
I REMember sleep and the vigor
it gave... I seem to have lost it too

there's a bite in the air - an off and on
gentle rain falls under patch quilt gray
cloudy skies; skies with hints and tints
of blue as clouds surge and merge - an
autumn afternoon's choreography in play

Don't remember reading this beautiful poem! I'm on tablet somewhat limited without mouse, so just a tiny poem:
CV
Brevity
Lunacy
Eternity!
Thank you ! I needed to edit a spot but the editor is playing games: afternoon > afternoon's. It was the opening stanza of a longer poem that I thought stood on its own well.
Good luck on your CV :) Your frustration stands out in four brief words.

Thanks, tailor. Didn't want to sound frustrated. The words just suggested themselves.
I wish you a Happy Thanksgiving . It's this weekend, isn't it?
Thank you !!
Thursday was Thanksgiving, then Black Friday, then ShopLocal Saturday, Sunday the Sabbath, & lastly Cyber Monday :)

Well, then I wasnīt so late after all! Black Friday, begins here extra officially in October.
Enthralled
When Lethe dreams
Near a blithe willow
Where ebon lions lie
An oboe lilts softly
transfixing all nearby

peacefully bachelor's buttons bloom -
a lake murmurs bright Eden's secret season,
noble forests love moist air, drink deep.
tree sweet birds thrive sentinel over
garden stone paths, wandering sky -
behold the harmony of a blue quiet dawn -
every nature a sacred rite of Spring.
