The Discussion

I listen, I speak But who can be sure I hear what you say Or get what you mean? You whisper, you shriek But can you endure Me espousing my way To find an in-between? We negotiate, we converse As communication gets worse. Sign in to see full entry.

Summer

Grey veiled and hidden Summer shuffled after Spring, Trudging with no hint of joy Wishing to be gone again And that her time was done. Retreat forbidden, She came but achieved nothing, Making inactivity her ploy As July struggled in the rain And wished for the sun, But of pity selfish Summer offered... Sign in to see full entry.

To A Muse

Could you, perhaps, help me find The images that I should paint In neatly ordered words and lines To caress your heart and soul With the knowledge of my love? Could you conjure that magic of mind, That passion devoid of restraint That blazes in intricate designs To offer my everything, my all, As if... Sign in to see full entry.

Burning

My imagination is a bonfire, A beacon ready to burn And illuminate the night With visions and ideas. Needing something to inspire Some epiphany to turn My potential into the light That dances on hopes and fears, That does not fade or dwindle Or disappear from view, I seek some spark to kindle My...

The Smile

She painted heaven with a smile: One glance tossed carelessly behind Softly radiant with kind intent So evocative of paradise That I, dumbfounded for a while, Could search forever to find What her expression meant, To seek utopia in laughing eyes And such heaven in a smile.

Excused

I have an excuse for each occasion A reason to avoid anything, A way out of each situation, To duck what the day might bring; I could sit in splendid isolation And let challenges pass me by As, lost in navel meditation, I find a rationale to not try But if I never bother, If I avoid all chance to...

Undecided

I cannot decide On just one theme, On just one line, I cannot choose Among the throng Of words inside That sing, speak, scream Thoughts of their design Each afraid to lose Or to be wrong And so I poise Pen over page Awaiting the thought That will inspire Me to write. Lost in the noise It seemed an... Sign in to see full entry.

Unmoving

I wonder, I wait For something new, A lesson to help me grow Or a reward for growth. I ponder my fate, And thoughts of you Encompass what I don't know And, thinking, I am loath To pick a direction and go, But is this uncertainty or sloth? Sign in to see full entry.

On Wet Glass

Sunlight on rain streaked glass Makes diamonds of old misery And bathes dusty rooms In pools of gold. Dull memory begins to pass Into unimportant history Dispersing the gloom And gnawing cold. Sunlight on a rain touched pane Transforms it into a delight And calls those inside To come and play.... Sign in to see full entry.

The Same Scene

It's all familiarly strange, Somehow comfortably new, Different without change Have I been here? Deja vu? I stand where I have always been, Startled by the view That isn't what I've always seen: It's different without you. Sign in to see full entry.
