the day was sketched
time added air
with roughened strokes
in spaces
the sea inhaled
sands grew
around memories
bivouacked
a swept stroke emblazoned
on a hidden horizon
counterbalanced
by the edges
mushroom umbrellas bloom
licked by salt
and the rays
of technique
lines and curves
superimposed
over
whiteness
and the shell of us
stretched
by the crab
of ennui
I thought you were made
of grey texture
a thick impasto
dipped in methylate
we meandered on wet canvass
pursued
by deadline
viewed by
strangers
within
and without
hanging
in isolation
our own chiaroscuro

(I Guess) She Doesn't Love Me Any More....
My world has all turned blue
My dreams are shattered too
By a letter that I saw just yesterday.
From a girl I thought I knew
She swore that she'd be true
But now she's gone and left me feeling blue.
She said she loves another guy
And I don't mean a thing
She vows that she will never wear my ring
I hoped there'd come a time
When I could make her mine
But I guess she doesn't love me any more.
How I wish we'd never met
It's so hard to forget
The fun we had, the good times and the bad
It's over now it seems
She haunts me in my dreams
I don't know when I've ever felt this sad.
She said she loves another guy
And I don't mean a thing
She vows that she will never wear my ring
I hoped there'd come a time
When I could make her mine
But I guess she doesn't love me any more
No, I guess she doesn't love me any more.

About this poem:
Another written as a song... Old country style... Was written for the ONE who I found and lost.where is the love ? i don't know....
Stronger and stronger with time,
I let myself dream,
This beautiful fairy tale ...
Every second with you is magic,
I live a beautiful story,
It's a dream that has just come true,
And I do not intend to wake up ...
I'm happy when I'm with you,
Sad when you're away from me,
I can not live without you,
Please do not leave me ...
I know you still have not realized,
Yet our love is very true,
Know that in my heart there is only you,
And that I love you as nobody will love you ...
I let myself dream,
This beautiful fairy tale ...
Every second with you is magic,
I live a beautiful story,
It's a dream that has just come true,
And I do not intend to wake up ...
I'm happy when I'm with you,
Sad when you're away from me,
I can not live without you,
Please do not leave me ...
I know you still have not realized,
Yet our love is very true,
Know that in my heart there is only you,
And that I love you as nobody will love you ...

All the Rhymes in the world as big as it can be.
The Truth and the Lies we will never see.
A Glimpse here and there is not what you want.
That knowledge by chance will certainly Haunt.
If it is big enough to get you killed but by some reason.
You have a skill . To beat the odds till they cant handle it anymore.
God bless You

Just venting to myself. You just happened to red it.LOL Hugs
Risotto
Take an onion, finely dice,
Add garlic and risotto rice.
A few minutes fry in olive oil,
But not too long, or it will spoil.
Add stock and wine, about half a cup,
Stir well till rice doth take it up.
Keep adding stock, little and oft’
Keep stirring till thy rice be soft.
Add parmesan to give it flavour,
And whatever herbs you favour.
Add salt and pepper if you wish.
Then tip it all into a dish.

About this poem:
I wasn’t sure if I should post this in poetry or recipes. In the end I decided against recipes just in case anyone should be foolish enough to try and use it as one.
Remembering
Remembering the night
Where the moon and stars saw us
How you you take away the cold night
By your kisses and and warm touch
Where the cold waves breaks the silence
Im thrilled by your love touches me
As the sand goes all over to tickles us
My happiness gives a little moaning
Where the wind dance and breeze all over
Right there, where in the midst of vague night
Its only us that shines through
Where the moon and stars saw us
How you you take away the cold night
By your kisses and and warm touch
Where the cold waves breaks the silence
Im thrilled by your love touches me
As the sand goes all over to tickles us
My happiness gives a little moaning
Where the wind dance and breeze all over
Right there, where in the midst of vague night
Its only us that shines through

About this poem:
Just something about the past
I'll Set You Free
I'll set you free like a butterfly, you'll find your way to your future. Give you freedom to be happy and find what is good for you.
I'll set you free because I'm not worthy for you, I cannot give you happiness and life that you want me to do for you.
Find the future what is right for you without me. I'll set you free because I love you.
Spread your wings like a butterfly, fly high and find your destiny.
Even if it cause pain in my heart,
I'll set you free.

About this poem:
Letting go of someoneGrieving
I am stretched on your grave
And would lie there forever;
If your hands were in mine
I’d be sure we’d not sever.
My apple tree, my brightness,
‘Tis time we were together
For I smell of the earth
And am stained by the weather.
When my family think
That I’m safe in my bed
From night until morning
I am stretched at your head,
Calling out to the air
With tears hot and wild
My grief for the girl
That I loved as a child.
And would lie there forever;
If your hands were in mine
I’d be sure we’d not sever.
My apple tree, my brightness,
‘Tis time we were together
For I smell of the earth
And am stained by the weather.
When my family think
That I’m safe in my bed
From night until morning
I am stretched at your head,
Calling out to the air
With tears hot and wild
My grief for the girl
That I loved as a child.

About this poem:
Grieving from the Graveby Criostior.
Rain and wind
Rain and Wind
The rain falls from the highest in the sky
The wind carries it
Too and fro
Beating it against
My window pain
I.hardly stir
Listening to.its next move
Against my window pane
It dances on the ground
Like tapping up and down
The rain and wind
Come together like
Sister and brother
I.wont bother
Getting up
Out of my.slomber
I'll just lay here
Listening to the rain and thunder
The wind is howling
And roaring like a Lion
I wonder I wonder I wonder
The End
The rain falls from the highest in the sky
The wind carries it
Too and fro
Beating it against
My window pain
I.hardly stir
Listening to.its next move
Against my window pane
It dances on the ground
Like tapping up and down
The rain and wind
Come together like
Sister and brother
I.wont bother
Getting up
Out of my.slomber
I'll just lay here
Listening to the rain and thunder
The wind is howling
And roaring like a Lion
I wonder I wonder I wonder
The End

About this poem:
No.commentCold Turkey
I raised my own turkey one year,
to be part of our Yuletide fare,
he lived in the house like a pet,
and we spared no expense on his care.
When it came to the fateful day,
for the gathering to be fed,
it was with a heavy heart,
I took an axe and cut off his head.
Then, on the very next day,
half asleep in my favourite chair,
his spirit appeared right before me,
the turkey’s ghost on the stair.
And now every year at Christmas,
since through that bird’s neck I sliced,
my turkey comes back to haunt me,
in the form of a poultrygeist.
