Of A Sun Bathing Child

Torpid and sun stained, She lounged on her beach; Not leaving her patch of sand For the entire day Until, perfect tan gained, She can look out of reach To boys who wouldn't understand Why she didn't want to play: While pursuing adult trends She's missing adventures with friends.

Sunbathing

The sun sung slowly in the soft summer air, It's melody a murmur in the corners of the mind He lay among the celandines, eyes closed against the glare As the sultry summer singing convinced him to unwind. The whisper of his smile was echoed by the grasses, He lay among their gossip with no trace of... Sign in to see full entry.

Work

I don't want to work today, To knuckle under and obey, I'd rather go out an play Than do what I am told. I don't like work anyway, Having to do what they say Until I am tired and grey And terribly old. Some times I want to run away And go to Florence or Bombay Where I might be led astray And be...

Plug In

Plug in, tune out and disconnect; Put on your ipod and your tinted spec's, There's no reason to look around: The people are unfriendly here. Hear our music and recollect A time when children didn't sing of sex And you could listen to the sounds Of the world without fear, Before all that came to a... Sign in to see full entry.

Sun Daze

Sat, silent and sun dazed Staring at a cobalt sky And listening to whispering trees I think of happy times and you: Smiling and love crazed I wandered with you and I Learned how love uplifts and frees If you can allow it to As, fulfilled and amazed, Heart and hope began to fly. Sun touched in the... Sign in to see full entry.

Between Excess And Trust (thanks to Shobana for the title)

The soft whisper of midnight Thickened with desire, His breath was a caress Murmuring of lust. She paused under the streetlight For him to admire A figure made for excess, A heart offered in trust. Sign in to see full entry.

Lost Moments

Too many thoughts and ideas, Too many stanzas and rhymes Each vanishes as soon as it appears, Never quite giving me time To capture much more than the echo Of a poem or story or song Before I'm distracted and let go And find that the moment is gone. Sign in to see full entry.

The Prison Of Nowhere

Too many moments are wasted, Too many chances are lost, There are thousands of flavours untasted, Hundreds of bridges uncrossed Yet in boredom we sit and we wonder If there's anything on the TV, Grey as the cloud we live under Thinking it's the way we must be. If we dare to get out of the armchair... Sign in to see full entry.

Slug

Slime-drenched garden thief, Plunderer of fruit and leaf, The raider that comes from beneath That's worse than any bug. You cripple plants before they fruit, Devour seedlings as they first shoot And you are not even cute, My enemy: the slug. Yet, you shall not feast at will My lettuces are growing...

Food

Is there anything so wonderful as food, With all the flavours and aromas it can bring? Is there anything so conducive to the mood Of the evening? Can you think of anything? Is there anything so rewarding as a meal Prepared with attention and with love? Is there nothing else so grand it makes you... Sign in to see full entry.
