Moonlight reflections
Oceans of tears filling voids
left with your farewell

background and poem by Evan

Ahhhhhhhhhhh! My man, a Haiku aficionado! Nice contribution my friend!

Panther

Eyes, stealth and cunning,
blackness a tool of his art,
panther stalks his prey

Nice take also on the picture and thank you for sharing. Do love the Haiku form but dont see much of it here in this forum and a shame because I thinks it's one of teh most beautiful forms that there are when done right. And they are fun! Thanks again for sharing your take on this in haiku form,

Evan

thank you kc...

Oriental Pleasures.
Spring brings tender temptations;
Panda Paradise.

This one I will have to cut from my site because the poem is part of the background that I made for it. Enjoy:

Another nice write Sharris. I think I am beginning to like your style. I am one that does like at least some modicum of form in a poem and you do it well. Nice soft sensual write here, kudos,

Evan

Ahh..and here its is! Did love this, a beautiful take on fall. Well done Sharris!

Evan

It's that time of the year when things go "bump in the night"! So, time to share what permeates from our "dark side"!

The following was written for a "word bank" contest where you are given a number of words in your "word bank" that are to be used in your poem. In this case it was an 8 word bank consisting of the following words:

haunted, wings, shadows, lucky, cinnamon, morning, gelid, intoxicating

And here is my submission:

Yes, I DO write poetry longer than 3 line haiku and such! Most are too long but thought I would share this creation, enjoy:


Morning Glory








I lie there next to you in the morning,

sun streaming in through curtains

casts soft highlights to your hair,

to your face and to all that is you.

Your sweet, soft lips shimmer in that sun.

The Sandman still works his way

with you, but I don't mind,

for these moments are mine.

For as you bask, yet, in slumber

in that morning sun, I bask

in the Morning Glory of you,

the shimmering lips the night before

I was lucky enough to have kissed,

the mussed hair from our slumber

and from holding you there

as I tasted those lips.

I gaze upon the sheets that cover you

in your slumber. Still naked beneath them,

lying on your side, the sun

leaves no doubt that thou art woman

as it presents to me the sensuous silhouette of you.

Such wondrous curves to entice a man

had worked their way with me and wrought

in me the passions of the night before.

But there's more to the Glory in that morning sun.

Sweet, sweet scent fills the air, still, stirred

by the heat of the rays that strike us,

much like the heat in ourselves

that wrought those scents. The honeysweet scent of the

woman that is you entices me still

as does the vision before me

and the knowledge of the woman within.

As you lie there in slumber, I brush

back the hair from your forehead

and plant just one kiss in remembrance,

remembrance of our midnight sun,

our night of sharing of ourselves, our hearts

and our passions with one another.

Bright, bold and beautiful our lovemaking,

like the sun that shines upon you now.

I could lie here for hours on end

gazing at you like this and thinking

of our night past, but desire, too, to awaken you

for more of the same...

but you will always awaken,

and once so, all of these moments that

I so treasure will be gone until another morn,

so I let you sleep instead.....


then my alarm goes off and I realize

that it was I who was sleeping,

not you...


Sweet Dreams

Thank you Sharris, that was nice and glad you enjoyed,

Evan

"I actually like this." ????? Sometimes we are our own worst critics. This is an amazing write, rich in depth and detail and eeps you glued to the write from beginning to end. You do have a way with words OUTSTANDING pen here my friend!

Please note here also. All my works, poems and art ARE copyrighted...

One of the commentators on my Star poem asked if I had taken the pict tha was shown, and no I hadnt. But at my other site, when I had lost my muse, I turned to doinggraphice works for people who would often run contests for such artwork on which to display THEIR own poetry. This is one such piece I did for a poet who;s pen name was Sweet Destiny. Gold medal winner of course (:) ). Lot of time and work go into these but when the person is as happy as they often were, makes all the time worth it. Enjoy:

Than you EVERYONE! For the visits and the nice comments. I do love this one, one of my favorite writes. And been a while since I have written also. inda showing some of what I have posted in my other site here and VERY nice to see an ACTIVE writers forum!!!! Nice to be part of this community!

And thank you too for the visit and the nice comment, appreciated!

Evan

Another along teh same lines as is Wish Upon a Star, Eng Haiku..or a Haigi in reality meaning the poem is PART of the picture, not on it, and did compile the pict, simple matter here though by adding a broken shell to a pict I had taken along a beach in Washington. Enjoy:
(This might be BIG here, dont know if they are resized here or not..will see I guess...lol)

No, not on this one though I did do most of my own graphics arts to go with my poems.
