Distant Dreams. (Sonnet)
In distant dreams an angel 'oft appears,
In awe she wanders Springtime's vibrant hill,
As wild bird songs exalt with merry cheer,
'Mid lesser celandine and daffodil.
In this majestic slumber I am lost,
Her beauty fair to woo my smitten eye,
From sprouting buds 'till flowers bedecked with frost,
Her lips afar, I wish our kiss be nigh.
My minds eye sees her prance lush meadows green,
While cirrus sky beholds her countenance,
On Nature's throne, she reigns as Noble Queen,
I yearn tread yonder fields in fiery dance.
If I held all my dreams since life begun,
I'd hap'ly fling them all away... but one !
In awe she wanders Springtime's vibrant hill,
As wild bird songs exalt with merry cheer,
'Mid lesser celandine and daffodil.
In this majestic slumber I am lost,
Her beauty fair to woo my smitten eye,
From sprouting buds 'till flowers bedecked with frost,
Her lips afar, I wish our kiss be nigh.
My minds eye sees her prance lush meadows green,
While cirrus sky beholds her countenance,
On Nature's throne, she reigns as Noble Queen,
I yearn tread yonder fields in fiery dance.
If I held all my dreams since life begun,
I'd hap'ly fling them all away... but one !

About this poem:
This goes out to a poetess friendwhose passion for love, nature & poetry
never fails to inspire me.
But to me
I am very fond of birds, but to me,
the dawn chorus is a euphemism
for a loud cacophony of tweeting,
regardless of what species they might be.
I like art when it is skilful, but to me,
the Mona Lisa is a picture of
a woman who just sits there looking smug,
and holds but not a trace of mystery.
I love music when it’s good, but to me,
Imagine is as corny as can be.
The whiteness of John Lennon and that room
lend it absolutely no profundity.
It’s not that I am soulless, but to me,
it seems we see what we are told to see.

About this poem:
I suppose this is about going along with the crowd and not stopping to question it.Ode to Odette. ( Sonnet )
My Love she cried a swollen tear today,
And I her stallworth honour did defend,
A friend that she knew well has gone away,
The wounds of this cruel hurt I tried to mend.
I stood beside her in that sad distress,
For those sad thoughts she found it hard to snub,
I know she would protect like lioness,
If it were me, and I her offspring cub.
I feel our friendship moved and grew from this,
This ladies patient grace did me beguile,
And on her lips I'd place a fervent kiss,
Those same sad lips that now do hold a smile.
Within my thumping heart today she hides,
Pure sunshine now where e're she is, resides.
And I her stallworth honour did defend,

"Nature's Crown" Sonnet. (Orientalkoru challenge)
Against a Cumbrian sunset statuesque,
In slanted beams she beckons me to grace,
Breathtaking views, the ink of nature's desk,
My heart to pen a smile upon her face.
Majestic jagged hills oft' touch a cloud,
Stooping to the lakelands deepened soul,
Penrith wraps our Love in scented shroud,
Sweet English rose, my Irish heart you stole.
Blinded by the beauty that surrounds,
None more fair than her pale countenance,
I on her blowing tresses place a crown,
To celebrate our close poetic dance.
Fond moments that I dream can't come too soon,
When yonder we will kiss to nature's swoon.
In slanted beams she beckons me to grace,
Breathtaking views, the ink of nature's desk,
My heart to pen a smile upon her face.
Majestic jagged hills oft' touch a cloud,
Stooping to the lakelands deepened soul,
Penrith wraps our Love in scented shroud,
Sweet English rose, my Irish heart you stole.
Blinded by the beauty that surrounds,

About this poem:
Thank you Orientalkoru for the challenge.It's my dream to travel to the lake district
in England.
This poem is for Christina who lives there.
" Smitten "
A majestic Eagle soars the lofty sky,
Yet you have swept me higher,
From the ashes where a Love did die,
You kindled a spark to wild fire.
Below lies Atlantic's murky depths,
Titanic's dark watery keeper,
An ocean swelled with tears long wept,
But you have dragged me deeper.
Your touch restored new flesh today,
To the bones of an Interred Love,
And you have swept my soul away,
From it's Hell.. to the Heavens above,
......
Now to cross o'er the Irish Sea.....a dare,
Fear not my Love, I'll soon be there !
Yet you have swept me higher,
From the ashes where a Love did die,
You kindled a spark to wild fire.
Below lies Atlantic's murky depths,
Titanic's dark watery keeper,
An ocean swelled with tears long wept,
But you have dragged me deeper.
Your touch restored new flesh today,
To the bones of an Interred Love,
And you have swept my soul away,
From it's Hell.. to the Heavens above,
......
Now to cross o'er the Irish Sea.....a dare,
Fear not my Love, I'll soon be there !

About this poem:
I actually tried not to write this.........But I couldn't fight it off !
LIVING ALONE...
Living alone is not easy as I think
It was my dream to do so
But days going faster and faster
Its becomes hard to me as well as you
I couldn’t get any help from others and
They says I am a selfish and cruel
But really it’s not right
Bcaz, I know who I am.
But things are different
I need some one to take my hand
And to say "I am with you"
My dreams are in the half way
Waiting for a hand to take care
Others are strangers to me
And they are not ready to know me very well
More of them are very busy in their life
To collect something special
Those never help them in their loneliness
And I am here alone
It’s not good as I was before
And it’s not easy to live alone in this world.
It was my dream to do so
But days going faster and faster
Its becomes hard to me as well as you
I couldn’t get any help from others and
They says I am a selfish and cruel
But really it’s not right
Bcaz, I know who I am.
But things are different
I need some one to take my hand
And to say "I am with you"
My dreams are in the half way
Waiting for a hand to take care
Others are strangers to me
And they are not ready to know me very well
More of them are very busy in their life
To collect something special
Those never help them in their loneliness
And I am here alone
It’s not good as I was before
And it’s not easy to live alone in this world.

About this poem:
it is not easy to live alone untill our death, here.Just One Slowburn Kiss.
Wandering lost, devoid love's fragrant scent,
My need for you so bad, you'd ne'er believe,
Cruel East wind bites my skin, without relent,
Dreams of you bring warmth, my pain relieve.
Nought I wouldn't give to hold you close,
And share with you this feeling bursting through,
To celebrate life's gems, I love the most,
Abundant Nature's flowers & birds.....and you !
The lyrics of my song deliberately plain,
Played from raw heart strings, no fancy script,
I prayed love soon to sate our yearning twain,
This heart for you, so 'oft a beat has skipped.
One slowburn kiss ! My eyes in yours to stray,
To trade my soul, such price I'd gladly pay !
My need for you so bad, you'd ne'er believe,
Cruel East wind bites my skin, without relent,
Dreams of you bring warmth, my pain relieve.
Nought I wouldn't give to hold you close,
And share with you this feeling bursting through,
To celebrate life's gems, I love the most,
Abundant Nature's flowers & birds.....and you !

This heart for you, so 'oft a beat has skipped.

About this poem:
I'm just old fashionedwhen it comes to kissing !
I Am Here!
There will be a path that leads me to you
So please wait, I'm trying not to take long
You're holding my heart so please be gentle
I need your love to remain safe and strong
There are times when I feel so all alone
Thoughts of you is what keeps me hanging on
I'm fighting for a love that I don't know
Knowing our feelings are each others clone
If we don't meet know the fight made life sweet
Kept bitterness from knocking at our door
Thoughts of you shielded loneliness away
Hope giving meaning to our life once more
Every day I wake I know it might be
The day when you are finally with me
So please wait, I'm trying not to take long
You're holding my heart so please be gentle
I need your love to remain safe and strong
There are times when I feel so all alone
Thoughts of you is what keeps me hanging on
I'm fighting for a love that I don't know
Knowing our feelings are each others clone
If we don't meet know the fight made life sweet
Kept bitterness from knocking at our door
Thoughts of you shielded loneliness away
Hope giving meaning to our life once more
Every day I wake I know it might be
The day when you are finally with me

About this poem:
For St Valentines...I think I can do better than this IF I don't have some pressure.. LOL (waiting for me) lololol
Systemic
A talk on “Sonnets”, once did attend
fascinated by the sound was I
of words that move to tears or grin
skill lacking, my pen has yet to try
Not academic-taught are my poems
no poetic training have I had
but my pen writes its messages
whether mediocre, good or bad
My writing is free-verse systemic
from feelings, deep, deep within
that rise up into words polemic
words, worlds ready to begin again
Once lost somewhere in my heart
this rhyming verse I now impart.
