Universe Poems Apr 2023
Vintage Bears
Did you climb the stairs
A world away,
in the attic we can play
Some forgotten bears,
sitting in your room,
or the loft croft with a broom
We can take in the sun,
or the early evening moon,
with a marshmallow bun
Green grass,
under the blanket at last
I can only make it
to the room downstairs,
or sit in my bed,
without a flight of fears
That's ok
Vintage Bears please stay
Poetry Bear's Picnic is for all
Ruffled bear or a tear
creased dress,
with or without a waistcoat,
no less
A day for poetry and fun
The Arts cares for all
leaving out none at tall

Amour
Universe Poems Feb 2021
Love should never hurt,
when love is real,
spoken words only heal,
not turning you inside,
to a liquid nitrogen feel
Some people may never,
understand how they made,
another feel
Just a few simple words,
made the pain so real
Her eyes filled with tear drops,
running like a stream,
but knowing eventually,
abundant love prevails,
full steam,
through love challenges,
as love, and light,
never fails,
to be seen

Green Foliage and Branches
Universe Poems Dec 2022
A white scenery  
Colour spectrum dreamy
Behind is the green foliage,
as the water restores whole
Gradual light will soon be told,
through flowers that will unfold
Until then
Green and bare branches say when
It's soon nature's Winter Solstice time,
where the light will grace,
each plant tree or thyme
Ahead light filling the air
You are shedding for a reason,
letting light back into you there
Preparing for the new transformation fair
A carousel,
get to know the seasons well

Inflection Walk Trot Canter
Universe Poems Nov 2022
Clever
More Intelligent,
Periphrasis,
grammatical relationship
Separate words certainly not indirect
No evasion in speech or circumlocution
Clever could be seen as indirect
Ambage
A winding pathway
Ambiguity roundabout
Inflection,
pitch and tone,
patterns in speech
When you change or bend the course,
longer phrasing may seem hazing,
but paving provides knowledge slabs,
that are saving

Blood Hydria
Universe Poems Oct 2022
I wanted to bleed all over his hands
Touch my red paint
Textures that would make him faint,
and realise the loss
Wasting time of memories,
we could define,
and I could keep as mine
In the throw of things,
memories do not require big things,
just a little time
You took that,
so you can hold the shot,
and memories without pots
You knew my red paint was not glue
but you used it the same,
to block my vein
So I could remain the same,
bleeding in pain
An anticoagulant used
Decrease the ability to clot
So why I can't I bleed,
into your hands,
and fill your ***

Mother's Nature Cover
Universe Poems Mar 2022
Mother beautiful cover
With a heart,
that sets Mother's apart
A body that carries a soul
Nature's the goal
Giving life a chance to grow
Just as Springtime,
and nature show
Mother's day
Earthly nature way
Sun and light,
embrace the stay,
by a Mother's accouchement day
Remember a Mother,
does not have to birth a child
Mother's are those,
who birth adopt,
and give the Mother cover the lot
Someone also who may,
of been there for you,
when you were blue
Perhaps a Grandmother,
could of been a Mother to you
Whichever way,
your Mother gave you,
her nature cover too

"Float like a feather

Heather flowers commonly mean good luck, admiration, and protection. Queen Victoria popularized the meaning of heather as good luck in England because of her appreciation for Scottish lore and traditions. 13 Jul 2016.

Little squirrel sitting on my fence
Nibbling away

See you tomorrow,

and, share your breakfast,
with me starting your day

For a cooked just right,

Quick and, easy,

Herb new potatoes,

courgette plate,
seared in a small,

just feed me,
without a full feeling clutter,
that stays for hours,
and, won't let you flutter,
light as feather,

Double - Sided
Universe Poems Jun 2021
Two meanings to a word
lexical a set of semantically,
related items,
straight spectacle
Shapes which ones,
come to mind first
Squares, rectangles,
and, triangles,
These are the kind
Straight lines, and angles,
represent structure,
and, order tangles with rupture
Usually Symbolic Forder
Shapes with curves.
circles, ovals, and diamonds,
are softer,
representing connection,
and, community foster,
not rigid ordered imposter
if you want to belong,
to the polygon
Euclidean space,
finite number of dimensions,
in which points are designated,
coordinates for the space,
one for each dimension,
competitive redemption,
but Seal of Solomon,
Six Fold,
will soften, and protect any,
woman or man that can't be sold
Earth, Air, Fire, Water
North, East, South, West
North ground
East Intellect,
and, imagination found
South passion,
and, strength represent
Loving, and cleansing,
please West
Hail, and represent,
everyone who does not sell,
their soul for less,
than the eternal pure, that is best
This should pour naturally,
without interference,
on the access,
from the outside community
Or be used to bargain,
like an auction house,
with morning coffee
Once gone,
left filled with rigor mortis,
and, a warm body,
but no human surplus

Afternoon Tea
Universe Poems Dec 2020
Afternoon tea,
just for you, and me
Claridge's, Mayfair,
perhaps a woodland,
cabin that is fare,
but still thinking Mayfair,
we could create a setting here,
just the two of us,
my dear
Deep in the woodland,
no combustible fair,
sandwiches cut delicately,
into fingers,
my dear,
scones with clotted cream,
and, jam, sweet pastries,
and, cakes
Is your mind thinking,
of the benefit stakes,
or the woodland humdrum
So long as running water,
is there for me ***,
yes dear,
lots of lakes, and streams,
on this land,
you will see Mayfair,
when you relax, sit,
and, not stand.

Instinctive Women
Universe Poems Nov 2022
A woman begins to understand
as she lives through her life span

Husband that you outgrow

Then the next stage,
another male comes to save

In-between the show,
I am going to look after you,
and give you everything you know

Boredom and personality through,
they want to be a husband yes
Their life may not be up
to the level of progress,
and words cause earache no less

Then
Interactions that come,
lies are some
Some are interactions,
then it's surely done
Some stay,
is it just you in the hay

Now all men are not the same

You then understand,
that innate is built-in
Which compensates each man,
with a ****** caveman span

Do you spend your time,
going down a line,
even to explain what you know,
about the male innate brain,
to yourself if nothing else though,
or do you just say,
I love,
being in the hay,
with my career at play

Wisdom and knowledge knows,
you are not just full of prose
Everyday no matter what they say,
or choose not to convey

Living your life you can thrive,
without a brain ***** drive

Sensory Shack
Universe Poems Mar 2021
Any sort of box,
like that,
inject colour,
patterns,
and, shapes
anything you have,
or that you can grab,
that will create,
a sensory experience,
that is not drab
Now the fun starts
look around your home,
a simple napkin,
with some essential oil,
can awaken,
or calm the senses,
for awhile, and create a smile
a plastic cup filled,
with pasta shells,
material for the lid,
elastic bands fasten big
Musical instrument,
maracas here we go
Now Find a sock,
add some pulses,
dried beans quite a lot,
and, make them pop,
aromatherapy infused,
comfy when used,
as a cold compress,
so the heat is less,
cool parts of the body,
that are stressed.
The garden let's see
leaves of different shapes,
and, sizes,
that will provide,
for touching hands
that be
Out of the box,
fitting any person's needs,
where the lid is lifted,
open, and free,
from four sides,
that entertain many,
in society

Would you like,
to go on a foraging trip today
Yes ok
They arrive at the woodland
Met by the foraging group
Everyone sets off
Sun shining
Brightness,
beautiful scenery greenery
Advice on what is safe,
to forage and pick
Time for lunch,
mushrooms in the bunch
Some of the foraged food,
is cooked on a woodland fire
The flames reminding them,
of camping and glamping hour
After eating their lunch,
sleepy not creepy
Thoughts a little hazy,
feeling daisy
Eyes open,
surrounded by branches and leafs
Something doesn't feel right,
in the trees
They look out of the window,
view and sight
Trees all around,
high off the ground
A treehouse,
elevated in the air
how will they leave,
if they dare
