Hey girl
(you boy too)
before the thumbs gnarl
use for sweeter things to do.

There's a sky awaiting you
a cloud paused from sail
a poem in your heart overdue
fetus of one tale.

Hey girl
(you boy too)
leave the shell to find the pearl
before times flew.

There's a grass still growing green
in wind love's whisper
a birdsong to catch from din
before years stray too far.

Hey girl
(you boy too)
the hidden is for you to unfurl
color them in your hue.

Piece together each dormant word
on scrap of leaf in ink
pour out within's flutter unheard
before runs out time in a wink.
the entire stretch of the journey, the girl was thumbing her cellphone chatting on a snw site. it begot me this write behind her back.
Summers ago when he was ten
his first blush was born from her glance
on his yard fell the first rain
he had but met her only once.

Most precious gift gave her tiny hand
one that he kept in a matchbox
no ring it was a red rubber band
long lost still at his heart knocks.

How can stop time by a girl's whim
stales never a moment of closeness
when love was an unripened dream
lust was an unknown address.

The boy soon grew to become a man
the girl went to some faraway land
they come but once in one lifespan
his first blush her hand's rubber band.
this poem waited for over forty years to be born.

Dance and sing,
And grieve no more.
Through Orion,
Find refuge from the shore.

Let courage be your Oar,
Let passion be your sail.
Wisdom and truth.
Can guide your deep hearts yearning.

Through all trevail.

Stay your soul,
And leave my heart its song.
Stay your hand,
The journey may be long.

And when we part,
And sorrows can be swayed.
Remember when,
And let your heart be staid.

Omnia Sol,
Temperat.
Disclaimer, its a song i love dearly. Sang it in choir.
Now for years I haven’t seen him
nor know if he is alive or dead
the shadowy man who floated like dream
each moonlight on the roof surfaced!

When from my window his silhouette I caught
saw him on his voyage embark
the moon stalker day’s small-time clerk
wove a magic spell on my thought!

As the moon came over the eastern edge
silver orbed in her glorious rebirth
he would be there lost in his gaze
like a moonman stuck on the earth!

Madly his eyes riveted on the sky
in pursuit of gain unknown
as if once unmoored to her he would fly
leaving this world disowned!

Hours passed by his wonder not ebbed
eased not the moon stalker's trance
it seemed to me moon's waning he grieved
mourned dimming of her silvery dance!

Each full moon saw this unfailing zeal
on the roof two lovers' meet
his eyes sky bound till he had his fill
the moonman on earthly transit!

Sing with me,
As we dance with glee.
Beyond the ferals sight.

All I ask,
Is that you end this life.
Feeling remorse and denial.

My love your heart may be pure,
But thy actions are strange.
Why art thou cold this day?

Dance with me,
For the words of love shall warm you,
May light guide thee.
To thy hundreth!
#100th poem!!! :DD
My sister Laura's bigger than me
And lifts me up quite easily.
I can't lift her, I've tried and tried;
She must have something heavy inside.
We worry
about tomorrow




   what a waste it'll be when we don't wake up.
This thought has been reoccurring.
My father once told me
"In life, you either sink or swim."

     I wasn't expecting the water to be so deep.
So I keep treading and holding my breath; Waiting to be pulled under by all the promises I never kept.
We're
         falling
                in
                   love;
And the rest
is just
science.
My first 10 word poem.

Sum It
I was so sure of she being Jasmine.
Whereas in her soul, she was a dandelion.
And today I sit here watching, her flight.
And today I sit here inspired, by her flight

The lady dandelion on the flight,
flying across the oceans and height
granting wishes with warmth and grace
was I just a fool trying to hold to her pace?
