Queen Searching Lost Kingdom
Queen Searching Lost Kingdom
Geranium whispers in the twilight haze,
A queen wanders under the moon's soft gaze.
Her kingdom lost, her heart in strife,
In every petal, she seeks her life.
Aster stars sprinkle the night,
Guiding her way with their radiant light.
Echoes of laughter, shadows of crowns,
In dreams of old, her hope rebounds.
Lilies pure, standing tall and fair,
Whispers of a kingdom that was once there.
Courage in heart, scepter in hand,
She journeys forth to reclaim her land.
Iris, the rainbow, blooms in her wake,
Reflecting the path that she must take.
Across the mountains, through the dales,
Her spirit strong, she never fails.
Camellia blushes in dawn's first light,
Symbol of love, burning bright.
In the heart of a queen, love knows no bounds,
Her lost kingdom, she finally found.
In the forest of forget-me-not,
She finds a land that time forgot.
The palace stands, proud and grand,
In the kingdom, where love and memories expand.
Azalea, a celebration of life anew,
In the heart of the kingdom, where love is true.
With her people, she dances with joy,
In the land that time could never destroy.
Daisies bloom in fields wide and vast,
Reminding her of a beautiful past.
Now the queen of a kingdom reborn,
In the heart of her people, she'll never be forlorn.
Roses, the symbol of eternal love,
Blessings bestowed from the heavens above.
In the heart of a rose, she finds her peace,
Queen of her kingdom, where wonders never cease.

About this poem:
The poem "Queen Searching Lost Kingdom" is a beautiful and deeply evocative narrative, eloquently capturing the journey of a queen in search of her lost realm. It effortlessly weaves the theme of perseverance, love, and the power of hope through its exquisite lines. (To Maharlika)
You were to young to leave
Why did you go
You left me all alone
My heart is shattered to pieces
I love you so
I raised you like you were my own
How am I supposed to live without you
I can’t think clearly
My brain in a frozen fog
You are missed greatly
You my dear little brother you forever are my best friend
There will never be another
My body aches
My head so heavy
I shed tears for us all day and night
I hope to sleep tonight
We know that will never happen
I watched you go
We were sitting there talking and
Then God came to take you home
My heart beats slow
My head hangs low
I walk through life feeling stabbing pains
I miss and love you so much
XXX
You left me all alone
My heart is shattered to pieces
I love you so
I raised you like you were my own
How am I supposed to live without you
I can’t think clearly
My brain in a frozen fog
You are missed greatly
You my dear little brother you forever are my best friend
There will never be another
My body aches
My head so heavy
I shed tears for us all day and night
I hope to sleep tonight
We know that will never happen
I watched you go
We were sitting there talking and
Then God came to take you home
My heart beats slow
My head hangs low
I walk through life feeling stabbing pains
I miss and love you so much
XXX

About this poem:
You were so wearyGod put his arms around you
You gently slipped away
That’s the day you were taking to your new home while holding Gods hands
You didn’t go alone a part of me went too
Never good bye
Always I’ll see you later!
My gypsy soul
Gathered one behind one
they came in a herd
throughout the village
wagon wheels heard,
the clanging of pots
the clinging of tin
staring I was in bewilderment
when I noticed him.
They searched the fields
for borrowed land
they settled down
gathered in camp,
daily I watched
infatuated by them
no" I tell a lie,
I was with him.
Just like the others
he laughed and danced in the night
thoughts of him chased me
followed him I did, to keep him in sight.
Unnoticed I watched
like a lurker in the bush,
unable to control
my burning lust.
He bathed in the lake
watching again unseen by him
fantasies crossing my mind
as my eyes bore into his skin.
With a blink from my eye
he was gone from the lake
my heart skipped a beat
when I heard the twig break,
there he stood naked
with eyes as black as coal
he see's and upon me
frees my gypsy soul.
The wagon wheels tins and pots
we heard come in daylight,
yet not a sound to be heard
when they left in the dead of the night.
Regret? or feel shame?
how could I not at tall
instead I'm forever grateful
to the gypsy who answered my call.

About this poem:
Today I was reminded of an old love song which then reminded me of an old poem I once wrote here years ago, my oh my the similarities, and here was me thinking I had written it coming from nowhere. Funny how things impact our lives without us really knowing it.... Mills & boom have a lot to answer for too I'm sure.
A motorcycle poem
She stood there Eye wide open but not lit.
In a state of intensive care.
A hard 5 months later she was back riding in the wind with some hickups.
Kept her safe once she proved to me that this was for life.
Now She is in the best shape I ever seen her even though her last Heart operation that I supervised/did was in 1997. She has a good heart so I will keep her safe as long as I can. Shovelhead I love you and I'm thinking of painting you RED.

online today!WHEN THE WORLD STOOD STILL
Suddenly the world stood still
Silence spread across the land
Not even the song of a bird trill
Every peep and movement banned
A feared darkness spread over all
Inhabitants tucked in their abodes
Not wanting company coming to call
Afraid that the darkness would implode
At first desiring for all to be normal
To get back to the way things were
But were things really abnormal
And a permanent change about to occur
For out of the darkness good things came
Bravery – kindness – caring – new friends
Supporting others – not knowing their name
For no doubt the World had transcend

Easy Living
Easy living,
Is this what it takes?, ( ex.1- da de da doo)
Play it by ear?,
You wake and you bake!,
ooh, (x4) - Easy living, -
The party begins,
When you arrive!
You wonder if it's the right place?,
While you - are greeted with smiles!,
Easy living, --
You jump on a Harley,
Cuts circles in the grass, (ex.2 cha che cha cha cha)
The neighbors call the cops,
Then ask for your autograph!,
ooh (x4) - Easy living, --
People pay you!,
To play on the stage!,
But even you don't,
They love you anyways!,
Easy living, --
Easy living,
Is that what it took?, (ex.3 de da dow ba da ba da bom bom boom)
To play that six string thing?,
To have the looks?,
ooh (x4) Easy living, -
And you have it all!,
Where else can you go?
If you are (reading, hearing) this,
(de da doo, chada chada chada ching ba da boom)
Let me know?!

About this poem:
Wrote this 6-9-2023. I thought of writing something Rock off a scale of the days of yore of Rock! Perhaps something like a modern-day oldie with rock, blues, and jazz style, or maybe something more The sound somewhat modern studio wise, but the vocals, the group, very old school style. Let's day the 50's early 60's? An interesting aspect, eh? lol Until then
The Rose
Within the blood-red nature of this rose,
Runs sap of life - without impediment,
A scarlet ruffle, in the sunshine grows,
Amidst the thorns of our bewilderment,
That blooms in Spring, before the Winter snows,
Banish Autumn, and the flowers' raiment,
To Time;- as long forgotten love affairs;-
Her billets-doux, the wind takes unawares.

Somewhere In Between
Headlights shine on rain slicken roads
Dotted lines and yellow ribbons glow
Staying between them steady as she goes
Mile after mile going all night
The darkness has only been growing
My thoughts are weighing me down
Waiting to see you again
When I find my way back home
In a quiet country where knowing
When we will be together again
I’ve been gone a long, long time
Drifting from one life to another
Picking up after all the broken lies
Shattered dreams in fields gone by
As helpless now as I am somehow
You have always saved me a seat
Your table overflowing fruits of love
Shared in the harvest gained from above
Maybe, maybe we have something
Created like we had the first time
When we fell down and laughed
In the tall green grasses of late spring
And somewhere in between found love
Dotted lines and yellow ribbons glow
Staying between them steady as she goes
Mile after mile going all night
The darkness has only been growing
My thoughts are weighing me down
Waiting to see you again
When I find my way back home
In a quiet country where knowing
When we will be together again
I’ve been gone a long, long time
Drifting from one life to another
Picking up after all the broken lies
Shattered dreams in fields gone by
As helpless now as I am somehow
You have always saved me a seat
Your table overflowing fruits of love
Shared in the harvest gained from above
Maybe, maybe we have something
Created like we had the first time
When we fell down and laughed
In the tall green grasses of late spring
And somewhere in between found love

About this poem:
This poem is about hoping to discover young love again.
you
I believe you are there,
Somewhere in the endless air,
A presence felt but never seen,
A whisper in the silent dream.
You are the gentle touch of breeze,
That rustles through the autumn trees,
The warmth of sun upon my face,
A reminder of your sweet embrace.
I sense you in the morning light,
As birdsong greets the dawning bright,
And in the starry, starry night,
Where constellations gleam with light.
Somewhere in the endless air,
A presence felt but never seen,
A whisper in the silent dream.
You are the gentle touch of breeze,
That rustles through the autumn trees,
The warmth of sun upon my face,
A reminder of your sweet embrace.
I sense you in the morning light,
As birdsong greets the dawning bright,
And in the starry, starry night,
Where constellations gleam with light.

Post CommentMany Moving Parts
There are many moving parts
You may simple not know
Numerous twists and turns
The future is often murky
Where does one’s reason reside
What things remain inside
Reflections on our strengths
Comparing to our weaknesses
Bridled only by our own ambition
Knowing where we should thrive
Better to find our own happiness
And be completely honest with life
