Find yourself
A moment of leisure,
Read a little known
Poem;
Give it life
For one less known
In Buried Treasures.

Let me begin
With Lady Death;
She penned Words.
It's worth another post,
Well-worth another read!
Too many superb poems that don't get our attention. I've been doing this for a while now. I'm stunned at the number.

the
weak mountain
sent it's pale blue streaks
into the river
she accepted by
sneaking them
to their
final breath
in
the
sea

fire
two years
of drought
tear
the source of rain
in twain
the water witches dance like
dervishs turn and toss
for the wine
on

your


table

the fabrics
of the other side
slashed by
a single syllable of
lightning
the clouds cover
the

abashed

face

of

Venus



iiii


press
the world's
face to the glass
and all it sees
is a mirror
an enormous eye
staring
toward
God
his blue muscles ripple
the tsunami spoils
for a fight
the

golden

spires

engulfed in

wet

flame

nature takes by force
what is not given

resistance is futile
all the works of man
are as bacterium to a
Tyrantesaurus Rex

In its place of need
June is calling out to me
With a summer tune

Sure to keep the beat
Played by the sweltering heat
Adding to its mood

Sun stretches lazy arms
To stroke my face, kiss my cheek
Morning has arrived

I will be back here
Tomorrow to protect you
Like I did today.
Christi, this is for forgetting last time :D

How much did I long to know you
How much did I wait to realize I am a part of you,
For the air around thee urged me,
To find, you were best that I ever met!

The day you let me know How much this means to you…
Your love shall win over my pain
And it is only happiness that you let me gain

As I relished you around me with all the glee
Every fall of the Sun!!! Every rise of the moon...
Took me in dismay, for,
My times with u were touching the end very soon!

But As the days go by!
Every dawn I witness, Sweeps away my distress
As it's time you are here with me
For me to relish all bliss with thee.

The river meanders
On a lazy summers day.
The paper boat sails.

She floats with ease

Through the empty sky

Past the moonbow's bend

Beyond the starless night

In search of tender treasures

She hopes to find

At the moonbow's end

Of cosmic colored lights

“Rise this early morn with me,
so your beauty I may see”

My morning is perfect,
the sky crystal clear
A bright sun is shining,
soft breezes I hear

Flowers are blooming,
midst glistening dew
My morning is perfect,
my morning is you

If you want to get some reads
Include Deborah in your write
Poets will be stopping in
Like the dropping in of flies
The place will be all abuzz
With the clicking of the likes
If you want to get some reads
Include Deborah in your write

If your wanting to be known
Throw Deborah into the poem
Doesn't much matter what you say
It'll still have it going on
Whether you feel that this is right
Or know that it is wrong
If your wanting to be known
Throw Deborah into the poem

Sir, have you no shame
In the use of Deborah's name
This is supposed to be serious poetry
Not some popularity game
So think about this truthfully
As I ask you once again
Sir, have you no shame
In the use of Deborah's name

Mmmmmmm......not really.
After all the reads I received from my
"I Miss Deborah" poem and still am. I figure I'm going to ride this gravy train all the way to the top! Woo!!! Woo!!!
Thanks Deborah! All aboard!

Like lego blocks
But something stronger
Perhaps more like titanium
Such is the Vessel

Nearly indestructible

Carefully planned and executed
Only pulled down
By it's past mistakes
A simple apology could do

Someone once said
The soul is the boss
So is the body perhaps
Much like a ship?

The soul is the captain
Only held back by its passed mistakes
So keep a weather eye on the horizon
The clouds may come rolling in

But the Lighthouse is within you

A rainbow ignites
result of a love affair
between sun and rain
only to be cast away
When thunder lightning play.
This is a Tanka poem
