Beckon true heart
For I love her this voice so giving of life
Loyalty held as she is the one I wish for
Care and kindness brought forth
My angel of passion and pleasure
Above the dark days of my meager words
Till all that I vowed is suddenly realized
Lifted and claimed by her beauty and brilliance
What price or toll must I afford
To repay what heaven requires
An expert in travesty now so blessed
As I am among the living and lucky
In love | |

| A Day In September Posted: 10/21/2010 9:07:51 AM | The Oriental Blossom
Soft petal pressed
A past reflection of my heart
For springtime flourishes
Waiting the wonder at winter's edge
Of seasons birth known sacred tree and echoed laughter
A storied stroll within this timid night so treasured
Beneath the branches long the lover's dare
Beyond all care as summer waits
Till destined fall and it's copper covering
Pale of pink a fragile time and life's demand
Springs arrival and the ancient walk
So majestic | |

| A Day In September Posted: 10/23/2010 1:15:27 PM | Marilyn
In Hollywood's legendary fire
Sweet Norma Jean was the flame
The dire turbulent sixties
What price a girl seeking fame
The fantasies of a boy
With tragedies confirmed
The make believe role of a harlot
How vulnerable we eventually learned
When Marilyn was found naked in bed
All across the news
This hot sultry blonde
Killed by the pills and the booze
A long desperate woman
Desires earthly sight
Rumors of glamorous encounters
Frozen in black and white
A daydreaming savior
As I rescue from remorse
Her insane life of addiction
With no happy ending of course
Pity our platinum angel
With her weight of lofty goals
Seducing fame and fortune
While sadly selling her soul | |
|
| A Day In September Posted: 10/28/2010 3:27:33 PM | In Love
Of passions learned I know the proof
A girl so near who touches you
No lingering drama a passion play
The lost and yearning I passed today
What becomes an angel whose dream has run
The desperate girl too near the sun
I wish the flame that bears her soul
Beneath the heavens I want to know
The simple look she brings to me
A morning kiss and needs to please
While all around her fragrant song
The gentle touch that I belong | |
|
| A Day In September Posted: 11/6/2010 10:34:56 AM | Coming Home
For all the longings of miles so distant
There's a place I hold so very dear
The fruitful life and constant comfort
From friends and family not so near
I know the triumph of travels virtue
This race across sweet mother earth
Though all the while I miss and ponder
The place called home with wonderous worth
I fear for someday to travel homeward
To find myself so mournfully alone
The only child still left standing
At the door of my ancestral home
Though even if I find this answer
The house is barren except for me
I know the memories and heartfelt times
Are the family arms that will always please
For home is more than brick or stone
The roof above and the hearth that stood
This place we gather with love and joy
Something my soul always understood | |
|
| A Day In September Posted: 11/13/2010 7:05:38 PM | The Silence
From sadness Wakes a wanting dream A life of love A girl pristine Of wishes made upon the stars A wonder of love what becomes the heart As one and one divinely makes two Life is left in a mirror to review The gray and emtpy that once was youth The hour glass running as given proof A random hour few would believe Away from love as she wouldn't see How devoted my soul my ever kind word The mistaken notion when we finally learn A life misplaced from a woman's touch Arrives to silence | |
|
| A Day In September Posted: 11/19/2010 11:41:45 AM | Homeless
Of streets I wander
Naked and cold
Though clothes I bear
A loss for mere bones
The hunger of mortality a spirit long denied
A human cry from loneliness sans pride
Among the street urchins far from young
A roadside ghost a life undone
Stark manhole grates as metal bare
Up empty stairs
A crippled streak
Hard asphalt beneath
No smiling wrong or grace belongs
To family ties and alleys long
I know host empty city lights
The warmth they lack till morning blight
To miss all comfort of yesterday
The happy home
A lost foray
Please speak to me of steak and pie
A father's wish
My mother's sigh | |
|
| A Day In September Posted: 11/22/2010 3:45:46 AM | An Exhibition
Said cautious child the view of I see
The eyes of allure a dim walking dream
From body delicious the need and between
Borrowed from ages the oldest it seems
Seek raven so lovely a blond purrs the way
Part redhead unknown hard money for play
Feel for this woman down on her run
What sordid becomes the view of the young
For riches of gold the draw of that star
With silver she's fallen
I question how far | |
|
| A Day In September Posted: 11/22/2010 9:16:45 AM | Winter's Page
From darkness
A danger I am aware
Cast the closed and doomed despair
The gray of fated twilight passing form
Belies the winter wiles his massing storm
Something in memory rumbles before
The silence and prospect
Summer ways held in store
From beauty's deception a roaming of white
Enclosing on madness past hunger or plight
The long autumn gale held blinding till rage
Post lair unrelenting
King Winter on stage | |
|
| A Day In September Posted: 11/27/2010 12:25:27 AM | The Huntress
Who knows of pain As our eyes entwine What gift is bestowed On thy true sign A smile to lure Or sadly shine No angel forth A prosperous line The common virgin Of lust abounds The cross dismissed Her amoral self Take care this lady With the knowledge of sin As time forth coming Sleeps lonely again. | |
|
| A Day In September Posted: 11/28/2010 1:39:58 AM | The Dove
Dear dove of light
I say to thee
Thy bird upon the wing
Of heaven's gate
The ways of hate
The joy that kindness brings
Beware the hawk
Thy sacred bird
A travesty does ring
Of wounded boys
As troops deploy
We hear the ages sing
I know the virtue of valor's race
The liberty and freedom's grace
A price some say
Revere the brave
Though sanity still wanes
I hear the cry sweet dove on high
The cause of never asking why
So sad of men with voices raised
Who miss your timid call
An anguished silence down the hall
When a soldier's mother learns
Her boy did fall. | |
|
| A Day In September Posted: 11/29/2010 4:32:35 AM | Once Loved
Simply being forgotten
Brings a longing
The wayward ark
As my heart becomes an island
Away to love
Callous remarks or phallic pride
To witness cold her farewell
Of friendship without embrace
Voice this passion still in place
A vision so denied
The choices in life
You can't abide or provide
Brings a sadness deep down inside | |
|
| A Day In September Posted: 11/29/2010 4:35:13 PM | The Corner
Within shadow looms
The dame distressed
A chosen role
Pure pleasures test
To walk the streets
Past fear unknown
The price of sex a woman alone
For frightening moments
Are bathed in city lights
A rush for greed and the rocky heights
Though others who tempt
Are willing no end
A common word is used
Though he is no friend
She wanders the pavement
A toy known as whore
Bears little resemblance
To the girl from next door. | |
|
| A Day In September Posted: 12/1/2010 11:18:33 PM | No Limits To Loneliness
I have words left unspoken Amid thoughts held silent concerning love Epic wants pressed between pages As a flower is kept for the day when she is no more I am not handsome as youth once enjoyed My hands are hardened by task unseen Though my mind is full of promise While my body still yearns for your soft embrace As my loins last to the morning I lust for your distant call Her pleasures spilled freely in days together With lights burned low and authors read with reverance As I am growing older Loneliness comes not only to the child Simple and cruel A love wasted is the greatest loss Without her I am afraid of the dark or unforseen I will wait, for love with any other Would be sorrow | |
|
| A Day In September Posted: 12/4/2010 12:48:14 AM | While Sleeping
Softly near
As her kindness follows my yearning heart
Of eyes whispered closed or breath so steady
A fragile child needing protection
For I am defined by her
As I watch our sunlit age
Two held together by devotion and the favor of children
For even if wishes go unanswered
I know of love's precious search
The forbidden in bewitching fashion
Or the tranquility in a smile so giving
She who finds honor within me
This host of my only solace
Next to me in quiet slumber
A lady gently dreams | |
|
| A Day In September Posted: 12/5/2010 4:47:09 PM | I've been lurking here for weeks and this is the first thread that truly made me sit up and say, "YES! This is what I call poetry!" Lovely, simply lovely, so wonderful to see someone so young and talented. If I could write poetry, I would want to write like you do.  | |
|
| A Day In September Posted: 12/6/2010 2:16:29 PM | Toledo Lost
From shadow she's cast A life meant to be The wandering soul A past she did flee From trouble beyond Sad rhymes and degrees Of prison foretold No bars known shall sieze Battled and bruised Beaten no end The role of a lover Though he is no friend It's funny how life Can shame to the core Till the moment we leave With a world to explore | |
|
| |
| A Day In September Posted: 12/8/2010 10:23:53 PM | A Passing Love
From bewildering solitude
A sad refrain
As a heart once held lies broken
Lessons learned as the hour strikes
How intrusive the clock
The pendulum fall and ringing choir
Ghosting my nights, moving along my life
The sum of feelings lost
So simple of spirit a gentle girl
Love shared is the bright and shining
Luminous heart and worthy devotion
As I am the undiscovered left behind
A sentinel to loneliness | |
|
| A Day In September Posted: 12/9/2010 6:23:37 PM | Our Dance
Jasmine hair Slow dances the night air As a young girl held in rhythm Soft style and evening stars Her voice of laughter The bands luscious wonder draws us unaware Of romantic touches and scented warmth Bewitching on my shoulder A lover near for we sway the sensual dream This enchanting believed and only discovered In each other | |
|
| A Day In September Posted: 12/10/2010 8:06:15 AM | The Ravishing Queen Morgause
Oh wicked queen I say to thee Kings Lots betrothed A devil scene The ride and tide of babies dream Cold death to all who voice displeased By orders given in the dark With pain all soldiers leave their mark For mothers do cry as babies are led To a hard given death instead of their beds A solemn beach watches for horses do scream To the cries of the children, a boat on the leave The half moon shows vulgar from the innocent on board Heavy hearts for the fathers who tragically mourn The oldest and first born were sacrificed that night By a tribute and a tale of Morgause in plight The lie that was whispered and doomed all dear child Came from lips so alluring with a devilish smile To save her own seed and the want of rich greed She lay with her kin ordering death to cover need Hiding an offspring By deceit and beautiful wiles Using jealousy's rage As Lot hunted the child The knowing of brother and the whelp that was born Was a climax of the future For the innocent in a storm. | |
|
| A Day In September Posted: 12/13/2010 3:28:06 PM | My Angelic Girl
Born of light An angel's gift my wish I know of comfort a lasting peace Portrayed by a lover's heartbeat As mist and magic entwine the giver of time With no walls amiss The path The rise The risk Her kiss This I truly believe Of all earthly moments in between She who lies devoted Dear to my love | |
|
| A Day In September Posted: 12/15/2010 5:14:52 PM | The Banished Princess
Far Russian form A lover's tale Of acts performed His crying wail The lady so regal a precious mind To depths she's drawn in loving times She knows the wandering a heart allows A husband unloved the darkening clouds From measures so bold a tryst of the heart Away and to scold, her soul she imparts Beliefs so feeble of marriage and child Dark comes a man well ridden and wild Beholding a grace with tidings to please A king well to face then brought to her knees The childbirth and questions All stories are true A **stard delivered Though five weeks too soon Away to the country A banishment kind The lover and his letters Mournfully Left behind | |
|
| A Day In September Posted: 12/16/2010 7:41:34 AM | A Deepening
Of loss
The remembered times
For distance wanders the passing day
A dare of magic I tossed away
The picture perfect age of love
A coming cold was it ever enough
To be the lad of rhyming times
A longing from the victims line
The ways of sin upon the wind
No lover's tale
Just truth within | |
