Let me have
A last look
At your green horizon
Take me in your dream
To Warsaw and beyond
Before I fall asleep,
With a smile on my lips.
Love is like a fire.
When it starts, it starts with a spark,
Then the friction builds up into passionate heat.
It's released with flames,
until it reaches up and warms the heart.
If not given careful care and affection,
It disappears into ashes.
But if tended to correctly,
It slows to an ember that burns forever.
He drew tears out from
my eyes today
and the threads of my jeans got dark

So I wrinkled my jeans out
in parallel

              free...

just so I avoid the force
a plunge to my face when he
felt compelled

... answers that could not be
bought to his senses
it was lost
I love him madly
yet his paw had crossed me

...and all I could do was sit
there and know better, but -

yet-

I am not a bird that can fly
out an open window
to anywhere but here.

Glowing Forever


As simple as bringing a flame to a candle
I hold the match ever tight in my hand
Striking the swatch in an emery fashion
Watching the flame as it takes its command

Flickering fond as the room was once darkened
Sending a glow to the ceiling so white
Cautions now bear of the heat it is yielding
You are the candle that lights up my life

Fill me with warmth that your flame it is bringing
Illumine my ways as I feel the embrace
******* a kiss in a different direction
Sweetly now place your touch wet on my face

Softly my breeze finds your flame ever moving
Captured the visions as now it does dance
Residue forms at the base of affection
You are the light of this perfect romance

Burn evermore as my heart beat is singing
Take of this wick every need and desire
See as my shadow moves closer to hold you
Together we find the most passionate fire

Light of my dreams oh I so long to feel you
Tapering slightly in spite of the spark
Melting eternal of love's light a' flicker
Glowing forever inside of my heart
When you glow it is such a beautiful light
"Let's dance!"* she cried, her hair swept back
Her golden trailing hair
Her arm moved swift as lightning and
She darted forth a slender hand
To force an unprovoked attack
That forced him from his chair

"What's this?" he said, his eyes were keen
His striking blue-green eyes
He watched her moves unfolding and
He countered with a steady hand
A move that she had never seen
Denying her the prize

Now back and forth, they whirled and twirled
Each pushing for a chance
Her golden hair hung loose and free
His striking eyes shone bright with glee
Their colored banners both unfurled
As each took up the dance

As he bore down upon her front
She left herself exposed
He ****** in deep into the gap
And fell into her subtle trap
Encircling him, she heard him grunt
And saw his eyes were closed

"So soon?" she grinned, her lips upturned
"A shame you couldn't wait!"
He smiled and then he held her tight
And in the flickered candlelight
He looked into her eyes that yearned
And said, *"You win! Checkmate!"

The silence you sing
softens my soul
let's me whisper
what a fool I been
I see the soft moons
the flowers so blue
holding my heart
as merriment so new
journeys reach around my heart
hauntingly holding my spirit grace
love comes and softens
the laughter brings
the singing doth spent
oh the ocean air
feels so good
kisses my blessings
one more time
the eternal singing
that softens my soul.
I was saved for this day
On this merriment way
Your singing hills doth bring,
so new...

The Love that makes us write to Nature .....Natures sing to us in so many ways through the oceans and moons and hills that blesses the days of our lives. -
You heard my words,
you stung my soul
you turned away
while I loved you forever...

The nights were long
as you sat there staring
you reached for me
you knew, I would love you forever ....

Our hands would meet
Lips would part
my heart would sing
yes I loved you forever ....

The darkness would part
the daylight brought forth
the words of truth, I told you
I will love you forever....

Debbie Brooks, 2014
The poem was very different
Not your ordinary write...
worded quite uniquely
the message fresh and bright.
I was so inspired I stayed up
Half the night
I wanted perfection it had
To be just right
When at last i finished it
I put it on the site.

The company of strangers
The company of friends
The company of other poets
Who's work is towards
These ends
We read all these
new concepts
Inspiration lends
We put out ideas
Their pathways wind and wend
We type in our computers
Edit and press send.

As many poems as poets
As many ways to say
Hello world! Many countries
On any given day
We write like knight's in
Armour headed for the frey
Our messages bright colors
Or maybe only grey
Destination is creation

*Hello Poetry the way!
I just want to say that I am amazed by this site
It has been said before
By better poets than I
But I want to express that
If creative energy
Were electric
We could light up
Paris. New York. Rome.
Hong Kong. Los Angeles
