When I need the sense of belonging
To help me cross the chasm
To fill energy into the dumb brain's
sleeping energies
...
The ship is afloat
The hour strikes
Water ripples beneath
The sky is clear
...
To garland you in warm welcome,
I decide to pluck flowers from the garden;
The garden vacant this morn;
...
When you return home
And the doggy
Warm welcomes you at your feet
Compelling you to pick it up
...
A bough bent young
To fetch an ideal dream
Swinging in its bow…..
A wooden plank
...
In second thoughts
Can the nail from the skin be separated?
Can the air be kept pure removing oxygen?
...
My light freight stood at the gate secured;
The gate keeper not too sure; kept his guns ready
...
Let me whisper in your ears
As you traverse
The mundane of life you live
Easing the trudge in routine
...
Happy Valentine's Day!
Happy Valentine
I see you as a loving soul;
...
Wilting lies a dream
In a bed of remorse
Tended not
Pick up your spirits
...
42 years of trekking on this earth, Point A to Point B in an emotional journey.....through life..Till The 'C' of change, chance and choice challenged my life in this poetic swirl! A teacher turned wife and mom. young at heart, turn to art.... New to poetry...... A launch pad to fledglings of mine.... have logged in to experiment, explore..... as i turn the pages of a regular life book! Shall we share poetry here and from differing views benefit? I for one believe art grows with criticism! ! ! So viewer's go right ahead and let your hearts speak the truth......and read and rate my work! ! I shall welcome...........it all! It is perhaps a struggle to bring top quality into my work.....the farther the vision...the greater the effort...... -' Love is not what you fall for; it is what you stand for- And only True Love, Mindfulness and unconditional service to humanity can make this life worth-living for eternity.” this is what poetry and life has taught me today...... and for always. Cheers! Have a good day!)
Inch By Inch
Inch by Inch
Inch by inch
I shall impinge
Into your heart
Sure! ! If you have a heart!
Plague you with smiles
Till your cheeks grin still
Freezing your happiness; paramour!
Sure! ! If you have a sense of humour!
I will make you pick your food
With thoughts far away
Over the hills
Sure! ! If you visit my window sills
I will make you dial the number
Never again! Ever again
Your “will” at work in your tall stride!
Sure! ! Ganging up with your pride! !
I will make you dismiss me
From the corners of your mind
Let my smile and open hair waving invite
Sure! ! Make you forget yourself that’s right! !
Inch by inch
Pinch you awake
Put your libido at stake
Sure! Give you a mental shake! !
Take a bet!
I have won you man
The minute you walked through
So sure! Your love turned true! ! !
