The Thief That Got Away
She wears a fur coat
how it lined her dainty shoulders
beige and speckled brown
a little ragged from the dirt
Soft
and nimble steps
bold
but careful stride
swift
a decisive walk
And with all eyes on her...
Up the display
looks into the butcher's eyes
No words
but a meow
paws
on glasses a splay
Those round, hungry eyes...!
So sweet!
Yet so coy! ...

Words.
She was always about the little things. She didn't need grand gestures or bequeathed diamonds and sparkling trinkets. What mattered most to her was you meant what you said. Words that people give an illustration of lives and sometimes what we hide and the regret lingering on of all the tongues of unspoken narratives that never quite found the courage and candour to be heard. I am sorry seems to be the ones that are hard to find and replaced with something that just comes easily from a place of mixed emotions. Words given the wrong sounds don’t feel quite right.
Words never went...

A Flower For Every Pöet
I will leisurely walk in the far fields, hail the herds, share the birds vernal songs,
and open my chest to gather all the winds in the high hills, stand on mountain's
top and fill the eye with so many landscapes that break my vision scope..........
Come rise to a fresh flower sending her perfume to every poet.
come rise to a higher scale of feelings, something never thought of before.....
Your days will stay longer than Earth's human calendar, as time will be slower
and your heart beats, shall peacefully and...

Stop feeding off the negative
Once a week I do a complete shave of my face
I look forward to the warm water, shaving cream and Gillette Razor taking every whisker completely off
As I looked at my face today, the only hair that was left was above my lip
I don’t call this a mustache because I’m not trying to grow one of those
As I stared at myself and looked at the hair above my lip
I said to myself,
what if I donned a toothbrush mustache?
For those of you that don’t know what a toothbrush mustache is,
look at the visual I attached to this story
Not a real attractive...

A Persian Warrior
- A Persian Warrior -
In a time known to history, but forgotten by man,
The mighty Persian army brought low old Babylon.
Great was Babylon, that empire across the sand…
But the power of old Persia had that lost war won,
Leaving blood and desolation, both far and near.
I was there when the Ishtar Gate fell into splinters!
I was there when the proud kings knew utter fear.
My axe held high, the steel in the sun ever glitters,
But that light is soon covered in the blood of men,
And you keep being told to take a life yet again…
King...

Through The Lands Of Heaven
The distant plains speak of the light blue, shaded beneath a sky indigo,
and the low clouds that float loaded with mist, whisper about an ivory hue,
and following the drifting sight much more below; the cypress forest
lies quite within emerald shadow.......
Rising behind, towering above the trees, and what the eye sees,
embracing all the existent beings, with mighty height, the majestic mountain,
awfully solid with rocks Old and bold, stands open-eyed, watching times passing,
to humans fast and dead faring..while the deeply-rooted, it keep its...

Slow Burn .
Slow hands slow walks slow smiles and slow considered words spoken with thoughtfulness. How slow time works. How you see everything it's not just a flash in the pan. How you can see the stars hung as a serenade of heaven's backdrop to be a supporting act to a chorus of stars and the black hole of mediocrity just the same and take it not being swept away to much by either. How you don't get too carried away in your own dreams and all your sacrifices and not face the reality of a world which is made of more than you and I want . It’s you and I a two who learns the formula of one plus one...

In real life I always focus on authentic situations; never delusional fiction!
By Stanley Collymore
It would be laughable really if
the concept wasn't quite so
absurdly, pathetic! Britain,
still, to all you undoubtedly delusional
Empire loyalists, very unquestionably
also Little Englanders, and obviously
rather demented Brexit morons, still
being regarded by you, as this great
international power broker, likewise
coupled with its simply, undoubted
and rather clearly amazing powers
to be obviously, a global influencer
too, none of which in actual reality
bears any natural...

A while For The Wise
It is wise to dive headlong into the wild, close the blind eyes and open the clear mind,
it's wise to rise from the cluttered mind, infested with recycled clichés
and mindset and outworn rites..
Rise and stretch the feet that are turned frozen inside a cold seat, a mechanical heat,
won't ever warm the cold heart, sun is your hearth, lounge in the open airs
and gather as much as you can, while time is wide and the plains get greener and flat,
decked with poppies and daffodils and daisies, and so many fragrant seedlings.,
where little...

If
If was door I would not think of not opening.
If I was a clock I would not attempt to stop the hands of time that runs its own course.
If I was a mirror I would not deny the power of reflection as one brushes their hair .
If I stood as a mountain I would never turn away an adventurer to climb to the top .
If I was a library full of books I wouldn’t let them fall into the wrong alphabetic order and line them up into the correct categories so they can be taken from shelves and read .
If I was a map I wouldn’t disguise the grid references I would hope you find your...

once I was young
The Real Meeting.
We sat in a circle, fourteen of us,
pointing knees at each other, drinking
coffee,
trying to look relaxed.
Sweaty palms discretely dried
on trousers leg
One of the six women in the group
spoke - women are better at
airing their feelings than men- she
went on, a great length, about a life
of endless cocktail parties around
a swimming pool, posh wine at
an expensive restaurant,
of which I knew
nothing; fiddled with a...

From Earth With Poesy
Nature, Earth and poetry
Glory to the tree, splendor of the mountain....
Energy of the wind and of the sea
Solid is the rock on the mountain's top
Fluent, the waters when they stream like poetry....
carrying all the human cares, sins and pains ashore...
Nature is worth the words shed on her land
full of warmth that breaths humanity and spirituality
Patience rhymes with obedience, with kindness....
Lore comes to you when you go outdoors, feel the flora,
probe the distant expansion of earth, not inside a mundane agora,
when they...
