dings and whistles from the slot alert him escape - sit before my image enter its wild wolf canyon escape
winding road in lofty forest landscape beckon her - leave him for my green escape
triple x signs promise writhing bodies heavy breathing and dark dank escape
the flute lay still of the silent table sparkling sweet melodic memories of fingered escape
the frothy surging surf traces the seam of the sea - bathe in my *****, wrap your self in my fluid escape
locked door soft light from below no sounds inside creative energy sparks a poetic escape
on the placid lake he casts his hopes awaits the tug - he and his prey escape
she stands eyes closed, smiling face turned upward feels the breeze in her hair thanks God for this sweet escape
he runs in the field of goldenrod tears stream and he screams a desperate entreaty for escape
the sylvan spirits flown from the mountain trees into the green glen whisper as angels - escape!
Authorβs Note: This is my first modest attempt at writing in the Ghazal poetic form. Thanks to poet Rob Kistner whom I met on HelloPoetry.com for the inspiration for this poem. Rob is an extraordinary talent who writes with a free yet disciplined artistic brush. This is the URL for his poetry on that website: https://hellopoetry.com/Artheo/
