turonah posted a new Poem titled I Will Be Here 25 years ago
I will be here . . .
For you to confide in
To keep your secrets
I will be here . . .
When the world has turned on you
When you have no one left
I will be here . . .
For I will not change
And I will not turn away
I will be here . . .
Waiting. [read more] |
snmiller posted a new Poem titled Memories 25 years ago
Images I become,
A memory I became,
Controlling grief
Of loss of love
Maintaining the balance
The minds battlefield
Becomes the sea of tranquillity
Behold the light
The glare off my eyes
The depth of my compassion
As the plains flood
I will run my... [read more] |
Angelhavingfun posted a new Poem titled A dream 25 years ago
I had a dream and sent it to you,
In hopes that one day it might come true.
On the wings of a snow-white dove
It flew out searching for my one true love.
It came back with a story to tell,
Full of gentle thoughts and wishes well.
It said, “I found... [read more] |
Valhjim posted a new Poem titled Color Rhapsody 25 years ago
Hers was the color of winter--
Snow-covered hillocks &
Meadows glistening soft
Under azure skies
His was the color of fall--
Golden muscled textures &
Russet rhapsodies glimmering
On the edge of sunset
When their bodies met,
Snow melted in... [read more] |

GOING ASHORE
It was cold, it took your breath away, it was bloody deep. It came to just under my arms I’m six-two. It was twenty metres of ice cold, inky black, ball shrinking hell. That bastard behind me, poking me, knocking me off balance... [read more] |
toobuena posted a new Poem titled Comfortable Collision 25 years ago
There is nothing about you that is new to me.
We sleep on domestic soil ~~ it is embedded in our souls.
Sweet submissions.
We breath static air, it invigorates us.
Your thoughts, like your fingers, invade me,
almost before you speak them.

That moon up there tonight,
she is keeping no secrets.
The trees are angry...

Even the ground is swelling up,
heaving in frustration.
The wind is screaming too...

toobuena posted a new Poem titled Hannah 25 years ago
Hard-hearted Hannah is always chasing after rats.
If you try to dissuade her you'll just get a spat.
She is very independent, practically to a fault,
aloof, curious, doesn't give me a thought.
She hangs out in alleys and dark places.
She gazes... [read more] |

The wisdom of your soul led me to your shore...
uneven breaths, half sleep in the jungle of bedding.
My fingertips, my tongue exploring, exploring,
uninterrupted touching, lobe of ear, neck, collarbone,
nipple, navel, navel, navel...hair.
