Impromptu Poems

[Thief]

a sudden inspiration ….and I dealt the following
I made it up
line by line as I typed

but the event happened....and continues
here you go...

I felt it coming ​

though I saw not​

a twist of fate ​

a change of plot​

​

I lay beneath a night time light​

and touched upon my pending plight​

​

wounded deep but did not bleed​

I lay helpless and in need​

​

and to this day when I regress​

I cringe to dwell upon the mess​

​

I walked away from what should have killed​

I did not sweat, I was not chilled​

​

and Death does follow​

a playful joker​

to call my bluff as ​

we play poker​

​

he overshadows my bed at night​

when I awake ​

he takes flight​

​

he pulls my pillow from beneath my head​

I turn to face what I dearly dread​

but as I open my eyes to see​

he has vanished ​

he did flee​

​

but now and then with bold affront​

he takes hold and does confront​

​

I have wakened to myself at rest​

as a dead man​

hands on chest​

​

the pillow tucked beneath my head​

I lay as if a man be dead​

​

the red blanket drawn and smooth​

a point of which I can't disprove​

​

he wore red as he took my arm​

I awoke with much alarm​

​

Death had laid me down to rest​

but not to die​

only for jest​

​

hehehehehehe ​

 

[The Anointed]

I picked up a fossil
And Lord what a buzz
For I held in my hand
Who I once was.

 

[TransmutingSoul]

This one, just for another thread

I see naught but a world full of love,
alighted by a white dove.
A world full of genuine caring souls,
liberated and free of the ways of old.
Thus the hand of God is in wide embrace,
Choose your path, choose your fate.

Regards Tony

come 2 me
little scone
your time was short
your life is done

i lift u up
and put you down
bright blue berries
nom nom nom

friday afternoon
snacky time
my carb obsession
relentless and sublime

summer days
long and warm
conversations
upside-down

i'm on the outside
i'm inside out
turned around
a leaky garden spout

words are pockets
packets are soil
this weeks over
i surrender the toil
