Rain never came around here anymore
Rain had become a legend
A fairytale of sorts

Rain was just another fantastic dream
Older folks shared with their children
A beautiful  little fantasy

Rain was like Santa Claus,
the easter bunny, and the tooth fairy
All rolled into one

Rain was never real, that was all a lie
Who could ever believe,
water once fell from the sky

Until one fine day unlike any other,
a few drops fell from a cloud
producing the finest of fragrances

And the people all became high and giddy
Some so excited and disoriented,
you would think they drank liquor


And when they all passed out
laying on the ground,
the rain continued falling down
Rain is a very special gift

Since Parkland Florida many are taking a stand
against senseless violence, and such
Yet I still wonder,
When are parents going to start being parents,
And securing their guns
and weapons?
When are parents going to start taking
responsibility for their actions?


When are parents going to begin
making things right,
And teach their children to use their brains,
and solve their differences
with communication,
and if all else fails
never bring a gun to a fist fight?

When are parents going to start being parents?
Cause last time I checked being a parent was more
than just kissing a child goodnight
Being a parent meant being responsible
and taking responsibility
for all the wrongs a parent needs to make right
Of course there are many wonderful
and responsible parents in our society
As well as some who need to work
on their parenting skills

Appalachia
sunprincess Apr 2018
Where mother earth is most beautiful
And the majority live in poverty
My heart cries, "Why must this be so,
In this great land of plenty?"

Come let's climb those high mountains
And gaze over the horizon
Let's see for ourselves how our brothers
and sisters live with so little

Come with me and see amidst this place
where the sun shines so beautifully
and hunger lies upon children's faces
like an oil spill upon the sea

Come let's extend our hand with compassion
And offer our family some help
Let's forget of buying the latest fashion
and giving money to corporations.
Poverty in America is real
Though you wouldn't know if you never leave
your upscale neighborhood
and sixty milluon dollar mansion

Flowers Yellow
sunprincess Mar 2018
Emerald city's genuine goddess of all things green
Slept upon a grassy field where does live flowers yellow
beside the greatest garden ever generously growing
sweet green grapes,
ginger, guava, greens, and ginseng
underneath a starry constellation comforter
contentedly
with a soft lullaby from a nice nightingale ,
and a warm smile from an adoring mystical moon
She slept soundly the whole night through

Phantom
sunprincess Nov 2017
Last night, Halloween night,  gasp
A phantom skull peers through my window
Alas, with a smoky ambience, an eerie glow
Watches me sleep, and sleep, and sleep
And dream, and dream, and dream
My guardian, a phantom skull

He's Magnificent!

---x---x---x---x---

He is a fabulous poet, I dare say

he captures my attention
whenever he spreads ink on the page

every word, I can't help but enjoy

slowly

like sipping the finest expensive wine
when by candlelight  I dine

sigh

his every word  succulent
upon my tongue

then i melt like an ice cream
on a summer's day

I absolutely  love the fact,
That I've become your favorite Cat,

A
cat you can't get enough of
the one you love so well

I bet you've never actually
seen a cat like me


One that will become a wild, wild cat
at the drop of a hat

One that will scratch you to pieces
like you were a tree

One you cannot pet and touch
cause I will Bite you
'til you bleed!

sunprincess Jan 2018
Pyramids reaching for a starry constellation
Years ago, another time period, another age
Ruling emperors ordering cruel crucifixions
And those guards whipping sun-burnt slaves
Making them carry heavy stones and suffer
Imagine stones some large as an automobile
Dragged along by prisoners, known as slaves
So I don't think I would like being a triangle
sunprincess Mar 2017
Was a sweet sunny day
when I saw a little bee
happily zipping along
singing his sweet song
he zipped right past me
I chased him around
and around an oak tree
trying to capture him
and make him all mine
so I could have my fill
of his sweet tasting honey
everyday all the time

Spontaneously
sunprincess Mar 2017
He's my sun, he's my love, he shine's so bright
He lights up my days, and even my nights
Sometimes he tosses me gently on the bed
Messes up my hair, and messes up my head
I wiggle away like a kitten, and become free
Then spontaneously I shower him with a smile
"Would you like to enjoy a drink with me?'"

O' crescent moon
sunprincess Feb 2018
February's crescent moon adorns the sky
like a lovely golden pendant one wears
on prom night with that special guy
O' crescent moon, O' crescent moon
leaves all the girls and guys dreamin'
With thoughts of those lazy days in June
when sleeping under diamond stars
and a crystal moon was heaven

Too Late, I Love Poets
sunprincess Jul 2018
"Don't fall in love with a poet"
They will break your heart
And then go outside and play

True ink, if I've read this once
I've read it a thousand times
It's fast becoming a cliché
"Don't  fall in love with a poet" has become a cliché

Maybe he was a god...
sunprincess Apr 2018
Hi, Mr. Handsome Superstar
walking through the grocery store

You're not a god, you're not Thor
You're only mortal and nothing more

So why would anyone place
you upon a pedestal?
There was a gorgeous guy at the grocery store
maybe he was a god, who knows for sure?

Some men of long ago were geniuses
of an extraordinary kind
Yet, those men chose to use their mind
not for good of mankind
Devicing a brilliant, yet devious plan;
A fantastic plan for every common man,
woman, boy,  and girl
A stunning plan by some genius men
Leaving everyone beguiled and bewildered
A plan simple yet complex,
starring cigarettes, cancer, and copd,
and superfast machinery
for mind blowing production
An ingenious plan, unstoppable and fail proof
A plan for population reduction
Genius men playing everyone for a fool,
Cigarettes, an ultimate uncool

There's a brick wall in a neighborhood not far
Though if I were an ant

Sometimes I transform into a fluttering butterfly
and over the grand impenetrable wall
I fly

Just to see what's on the other side
Brick walls dividing neighborhoods

A Poe Mystery
sunprincess Jul 2017
Through a portal in the flowing sands of time
We travel back into history,  1849
Where we find an intriguing man
who can pen a nice line!

He was no craven, he flew with a raven
And you're wondering who is this man
Everyone know the master of poetry
Edgar Allan Poe ☆

Alas, we find Poe upon the streets
        Of Baltimore, all alone
in severe distress
Gasp in strange clothes dressed
        And none were his own!

Astonished were we and deathly ill was he
And not misbehavin'
   Only unshaven!

Swiftly he's whisked away to a hospital
             Washington College!

Whereupon four days later
the grim reaper greets him,
"Hello, Mr. Poe!"
   

Oh Poet!

Tomorrow will be much better than today

And I crash into the craggy rocks
When everything I possess into the sea has fallen
I will blame no one but myself

Choices, choices are so difficult  
Socrates, Plato, Aristotle,
With whom should I spend my day?

To an enchanting place,
So serene,
Speaking of things unearthly,
Things unseen
With whom should I spend my time?
Listening to birds sing
With whom?

Stranger Danger
sunprincess Mar 2018
Just a word of advice
Please be extremely careful
and think twice
Before opening the door to strangers
and never, ever, ever
take any stranger at their word
Some strangers are very deceptive
and so are scammers
especially when they call your phone
and discover you're all alone

A small Town lost in Time
sunprincess Oct 2018
There's a place where hands of a clock never move
A place where things are never changing
A place well hidden, not many could ever find it
Only wild animals and a flock of crows

Once upon a time the place was probably on a map
Until early one morning someone awoke
And threw their finger in the air and loudly cried
Eureka! Let's remove the railroad tracks!

A Special Christmas Star

Everyone thought where goeth
those three wise men
following a Christmas star,
Perhaps going to see a friend
They all surmised

Little did they know those three wise men
were going to visit a new born king
and gift him, lovely gifts
Gold, frankincense, and myrrh
gifts befitting a king of kings


And the special Christmas star
was leading the way, directing their path
shining ever brightly on a velvet blue sky
And twinkling in their eye

A Creature of Mythology
sunprincess Jul 2017
My summer garden
enchants everyone
who looks upon,
O' beautiful blooms
of fragile beauties
in striking colors,
A vine of trumpets
alluring pink flowers
with a hidden interior
of bright sunshine,
And some hibiscus
in exotic tangerine
with tongues adorned
in tiny yellow beads,
And some geraniums
in passionate hot pink,
So this summers day
I'm sitting amongst
those lovely flowers
untangling my hair
When a little creature
of mythology flew past
And very fast actually
seconds later returning
Tiny wings fluttering,
fluttering and fluttering
a hundred miles an hour
Yet, suspended there
admiring a geranium
A passionate hot pink
And so close, so, so close
looking at me, and says,
"Your flowers, I do admire"
And then quickly flew away
"Oh, little hummingbird,
Sweet little hummingbird
Will you return someday?"

a pizza over for us to share
