~~~

black birds cluster in
barren winter trees like leaves...
... caw loquaciously

lone dove on far branch
shivers in the frigid wind
then she flies away

she goes far beyond
the subtle pink sunrise to
a place of summer

All three of these should be
Classic 5/7/5 form.
Please let me know if they are not!

Such intense pleasure grows out of the Soul potted in phase shift Soil.
The Heavens watered her petals to bloom, flowers of everlasting peaceful serene.

I am drawn into calming bliss, basking in her intoxicant solution of fragrance ~ wafting in the wisp-ers of wind, rising my eyes to the heart of her mind.

*My humble Soul shudders ~

Hiding in silence.
No words be spoken and tales never told.
Secrets hidden in the curled up pages of a tan tainted book.
The lost hide within.
Ran under my skin.
True eruption of passion as written words break.
Life's sustenance stuck between the sticky centre pages where they dwell.
Escapism urged on with the pen.
It's written.
The demons left.
Wave them goodbye with a white handkerchief.
Your self is finally resting like a dove at peace.

Silence Screamz
I heard the bullets scream
Smashed by the moment
Silence as the pin dropped
His head had hit the pavement

****** in the window
Blood spattered wall
Brother taken before me
Intrepid moment takes us all

Held his hand within mine
Closed his open eyes
Angered by the second
Said my final goodbyes

Bombing in the distance
Death cuts through the air
War is such a *****
and life isn't fair

Ribbons fill the trees
Markers field the green
Memories not forgotten
Brothers forever seen
Thinking of all veterans!!
Haydn Swan Nov 2014
What of life and all that’s been,
Mine was stolen on a field of green,
For king and country, god and mum,
laid down in the shadows, never saw the sun.
100 years is mine to tell,
no comforting arms for those that fell,
I ask no pity, tears or plea,
Just once on a morn, remember me.
I wrote and posted this poem on here earlier in the year but today, the anniversary of the end of the WW1, it seemed appropriate to do so again, in remembrance of all those who paid the ultimate sacrifice.

Silence Screamz
Custom made world
All made of plastic
Counting twist or turns
Everything is spastic

High definition views
Playing with our eyes
In a different place
Reality is a crime

Trapped in our electronics
We can not walk a line
Children with no manners
Living is a lie

Spoiling our ambitions
Charging everyday
Respect is really lost
Pictures are to say

Transmissions cross the airspace
Signaling the cost
Humanity is all but broken
Everything is lost
