Most Commented Prose Poems (416)

I rail against my feeble body that once was so swift
despair when tasks take three times longer now
it crept up on me seemly overnight, this thing they call age,
it pulls me down with it's agonising slowness

Always been the adventurer travelling the world
lived in some strange places with different rules
strived to live each minute to the max, exalt in life
taking no as no answer, digging under the surface

Many wondrous sights I have seen during my time
the miracle of birth, so fresh and new each time
so full of promise, a whole life yet to be lived
all that's before you is a blank sheet waiting patiently

I know for me that sheet is very full of doings
life is for living and boy, I have lived it in full
yet still I rail against age itself and the slowness
my mind can still take flight when it likes

Yet this shell in which I abide is crumbling
each year I seem to get slower and slower
such a pain, a burden and a strain on me
oh, to be young once more and be able to be fast

As the cold winter air touches my nose
The white snowflakes comes down in a rush
When they hit the ground – all turn into slush
My face and my nose are like a red rose
A deer runs by and stops quick in a pose
I round up the dogs and tell them to mush
A bellowing wind blows in like a gush
It howls like a wolf – that’s how it goes

Along the way I hear a shrill call
All the birds of the forest take flight
In the distance I spot a large tree fall
Suddenly I pause and then turn to the right
The woods look like a forbidding dark wall
As my journey proceeds into the night

Sometimes when I think of you
I hardly can believe
How this love had its debut
What miracle helped it achieve
The deepest love I never knew
This love I shall never leave

Longing for you every minute
My life would be nothing without you in it
With all the words written and said
There is still so much more unsaid and unread
We have the rest of our lives to unravel the thread

Sometimes overwhelmed by love I cry
I really cannot even explain why
My feelings for you are just so intense
Through emotions and tears I try to make sense
Of how blessed I am to have you in my life
Calm and peaceful, now free from strife
Sometimes when I think of you
I admit to myself that I never knew
A love that is forever is in my life

If you love a kiss
Long and very slow
Until it will blow
Your mind down to your toe
And that is your one desire
The perfect kiss you want to acquire
Such a beautiful wish this kiss
You have all the parts in your brain
To just let go and not refrain
From the passion you feel
Of something so real
As the breath and taste and linger of a kiss
Awesome and delirious, such heavenly bliss
You start out slow and let it go
The feeling is building like a crescendo
Right when you reach the top
You know you don't want to stop
Pushing past into an erotic zone
You lose your mind it's totally blown
Where you are now is anyone's guess
The feeling is almost impossible to express
The pure beauty of such a sweet caress
You begin to confess
I really want the rest
Of what this kiss became
We're not to blame
It's the passion in the kiss
That brought you to this
The secrets that hold bliss
In the never ending kiss

I watch the fire burn, he the flame all aglow,
Yet I still sit and wonder cause
I really need to know,
Are they coming back"?
The words paw the air.
And I just sit and wonder
While the flame burns the air.
I think of times past
And things we all enjoyed
The laughter and the love
What we did to fill the void.
We listened to the timber wolf
His crying,lonely howl.
And listened to the mice
As they ran,evading Owl.
I think of all of you
And this is what I know
If I see you again
I'll never let you go!

Twas the night before Christmas
when all through the house
nothing did stir
not even this souse

I lay in a heap
pissed as a newt
all crumpled up
in my best dinner suit

The evening had started
with a glass of eggnog
as I sampled a slice
of the chocolate Yule log

From there I moved on
to the new Christmas beer
a double strength concoction
created to cheer

At dinner there was wine
both white and red
and the port that I tasted
went right to my head

Carols were sung
and a few of us danced
it was at this time
that a brandy I chanced

It was the one for the road
and not meant to queer pitch
but at the back of my throat
I had felt a slight itch

It slipped down and soothed
so another I had
and it was right at this time
that I started to feel bad

A whiskey's the thing
that's what I need
a large one I poured
It went down with great speed

So the night before Christmas
under tree do I lay
and don't intend stirring
throughout Christmas Day


Happy Holidays

When you told me you only wanted happiness
I felt such gratitude and admired your manliness
Having met on a faraway distant cosmic plane
A connection is now what we both desire to attain
You want to know in your heart if we’re compatible
Let me tell you something that may seem unfathomable
I’ve made endless love to you more times than imaginable

In dreams I’ve been with you a thousand times before
I have touched your body many thousand times more
My lips have tenderly kissed you like sipping fine wine
As our excitement rose and our naked bodies entwined
I have laid with you often in my deepest sensual dreams
Replaying so many beautiful s*xual fantasies and themes
We have given way to burning passions as hot as the sun
While we’ve melted into each other arms and became one

My tongue has caressed you as I drank in your manhood
Every movement, every word, every touch was so good
I have stroked every inch of your body soft and tenderly
Kissing your hardness excited me and gave me energy
Moving my body to your deep penetration was heavenly
Generously I poured all my love on you with tender care
Whispering your name and begging for more I dared

You see lover I have painted and dreamed you into life
To make endless love to you, free from worldly strife
I will give myself to you because you want happiness
Even though I stand to be hurt, I will give nonetheless

Today I am making a choice to be free and very selfless
I want to experience surrender to you and feel helpless
Abandoning myself to this moment without hesitation
I can no longer live on erotic dreams, I need a reality
Because the question is not whether you will love me
The question is will I love you freely without condition

If euphoria were described in words
Free flying like a sky full of birds
Could jubilation take precedence today
And the feeling formed in potter's clay
Or would merriment run to steal it away

Expecting the amazing abounding glee
Beautiful picture from photographic print
Entering into a magical state with thee
Intensity filled with secret excitement
Sweet as bergamot eau de cologne mint

Running miles high on unbridled elation
Hearts entwine under full moon of night
Falling stars inducing cosmic celebration
Enjoyment in endless sensual delight
Eternal joy that floods your inner light

Feel the euphoria move you to unending bliss
Exultation pushes and blends love's rapture
Deep as an abyss sweet as a molasses kiss
Let your thoughts flow, journey and fracture
Transforming your spirit being and stature

Euphoria is that blessed elevated state within
Intensity like the intoxication of sloe gin
Capture this feeling by gently closing your eyes
Let euphoria fill your spirit body as you arise
Take a breath, just smile and never compromise

One day I woke up
and I was broken
was it words spoken?
in anger?
in jest?
for the worst?
for the best?

One day I woke up
and I was broken
was it the things I did or didn't?
those I took?
those I left?
believing them worst?
or believing them best?

One day I woke up
and I was broken
was it the loves I have had?
or have?
or have lost?
or never wanted?
the best loves?
the worst loves?

One day I woke up
and I was broken
You can fix me you know
but should you?
would you?
could you?
would it be for the best?
or would it be worse?

I remember a sermon
about good intention paving
the priest raving
soul saving
money craving

I remember words that fell
from my fathers mouth
wasted on youth
obviously truth
all gone south

I remember my first love
a new way to see life
so I got me a wife
and tried to survive
but it was too much strife

So there are many memories
abiding in my head
friends long dead
children fed
relationships dry bled

Glancing back now I see
the mistakes I made
in the plans I laid
but now they fade
they never really stayed
