THE CRUNCH OF SNOW

Submitted by Nordic cloud on Sat, 2012-12-22 09:41

The crunch of crisp snow,
white snow,
bright snow,
the crack of twig,
the sharpness of the icicle above,
the weighted load,
its shift,
the swish of skis across the lake,
or through the wood.

The sound of space
so quiet,
stilled
around our beings,
wrapped into the world.

We huddle to keep warm,
we watch the stars be born,
the light of dawn is dimmed,
as the sun journeys on,
on its shortest day,
over the sky, above the grey.

Nigella Lawson on her mother

Submitted by Frenchf on Sat, 2012-12-22 07:45

Nigella Lawson is extremely peeved ,
About the comments made on the beeb
She told the truth about being beaten
Before the lemon roast chicken was eaten
Despite the fact that her father was famous
Chancellor of the Exchequer, she told us.
Complex relationship with her mother,
Did she love or did she hate her?
Nigel Lawsons not commented yet
He's too busy planning his next project
As I grew older I loved my mother
But despised the rest of them sister and brother
My mother tried hard despite all her failings

The raw and the ruse

Submitted by t. reflexion on Fri, 2012-12-21 20:15

Sister Sarah said, her siblings are green
Steeped in the blues they fall headlong,
When dealing with a willing opposite
Undefined emotions embedded the senses
Presumed love becomes a smiling snare
Like a bubby traps set for rabbit holes

She prayed never to be caught there in
Declared fervidly, ‘Na love I go chop?’
Her love has eyes on a thinking head
To see the mask of preying people

CIRCLES

Submitted by Geremia on Fri, 2012-12-21 15:35

CIRCLES

I rode on steeds two
black in a sky indigo blue.
hooves sparkling fire
across the universe
higher and higher they flew
me
to the ends of places new.

my your beautiful face

Submitted by loved on Fri, 2012-12-21 11:26

your beautiful face
makes me tremble,

my heart beat can’t keep pace,
as i look at your charming face.

wow you are so young
you are so cool
at nineteen,
you’re the cynosure of many an eye,
so many will love for you to vie

you are astounding you know
meet me only just once
ere from the earth I go.

I love your beautiful smile
Oh! magnificent face
come and meet me
will you at my place?

you are exquisite you know
I can see your charm as you glow.

Magic of Us

Submitted by Lamar Ingraham on Fri, 2012-12-21 10:36

Let that Blackstreet ride from track five,
Do not play anything but Another Level;
Let me run the shower water to revive,
Undress you slowly with kisses so careful.

Sweetheart, let us make tonight magical...

I would like to turn off all the lights now
And this passionate walk with blind faith;
Kisses over you, unbutton your blouse,
Remove your bottom, embrace your waist.

Sweetheart, let us make tonight magical...

I feel it in you,
You feel it in me;
The magic of us
Feels so sweet.

A better place to be

Submitted by weirdelf on Fri, 2012-12-21 04:21

Today I enjoyed my mind,
it might not seem a big ask,
I’ve been doing it most of my life,
Often wondering
if it was as much fun in other people’s heads
as it was in mine.
A dangerous neighbourhood at night,
but which of the best places aren’t?

Today I enjoyed my mind,
it hasn’t happened much lately
but today is today

STUPID MAYANS

Submitted by scribbler on Thu, 2012-12-20 21:23

Come on in you're running late
guess no one can stop time
I see you brought an end time date
have a drink, it's on my dime

I reckon you know all the others
no need to introduce
friends, cousins, sisters, brothers
that vodka needs a little juice

Times Square's on the big T.V.
the ball's about to drop
were Mayans wrong? about to see
is world and time about to stop?

OF THE LOST WORD

Submitted by t. reflexion on Thu, 2012-12-20 18:16

Silent wind carried away the lost word
Not written ever since it was uttered
Ricochet reflected in conception

The word took form in myriad realities
Expressing an endless order within
Of an unending cycles of reunion

This obscure word, not heard by man ever
Remains a puzzle in a ceaseless search
Set to undo that which had been designed

Forget-us-not

Submitted by sueb on Thu, 2012-12-20 16:55

Oh, your love has untethered, unbound me
Heart beats an intimate dance, called romance
Your gnawing need for me, and mine for thee
consumes, alternate reality, a trance
I'm floating on cloud nine, sweet ecstasy
Ah, can this last eternally? perchance
Reflected gaze I feel like a beauty
My feelings broad as the oceans expanse
Your my soulmate, my best friend, my happy
No formula, not an exact science
except one on one, may add upto three
I appreciate our dalliance
Flirting is the fuel that keeps love red hot
