Coffee That is great!! Happy new year

[Prymalrage]

Laughter in your eyes
Beauty still in form and face
Pieris shrubs bloom; snow

Someone once commented on this as something that reminded them of an acid trip ;p

Orange Light

Faint shadows cascading for a moment
Then changing as I write and lift my pen
Fingernails glistening with slight reflections
Of Pale Orange Light falling out over

Skin taking on the tint of an unknown
Rings, metallic binding these pages
Glowing with those shining beams
Of Pale Orange Light falling out over

Changing positions of a forest green notebook
Allowing for a different angle from my heater
Revealing the full texture and look of the page
Of Pale Orange Light falling out over

Thirty-Five holes to the left allowing
Thirty-Three blue lines controlling
One red line vertically striking
Of Pale Orange Light falling out over

Plastic white bindings on wire strings
Pulling electric currents from the line
Deliver the energy needed to generate
Of Pale Orange Light falling out over

Silver things shining all around
Walls taking on the tints of creamy white
The one lamp in the room dark blue
Of Pale Orange Light falling out over

Clocks digits showing a deeper red
Casing a Black, black as the darkest
Enchanted forest curtain twists and loops
Of Pale Orange Light falling out over

Absence of a conclusion light hearted
Sith comes a beginning in a song
A note of divinity and purity crystals
Of Pale Orange Light falling out over

[Prymalrage]

Long yellow tree fruit
Preparing to eat; it rings
Twisted humor rules

Now maybe I get that song out of my head!!! LOL

[Coffeewench]

*giggles*

Of course, when it turns out that puts that song INTO my head, I may have to hunt you down and kill you

[Talidro]

ring ring!

Holy Banana-phone Batman!

Been a while since I have made a post. Was staring out window and this popped into mind. Hope you all like

Friends
Souls shared freely; found
Time passes, shared dreams; love
A bright sunrise; hope

[Prymalrage]

Warm blood and cold fear
Her heart beat is a beacon
Autumn’s sunset comes

[bellianna]

Her laughter bubbles like a spring
Over flowing from her lips
To reach my parched ears and provide relief
How thirsty I was for the sound of her voice

My lips trace dizzy smiles as she giggles
Her speech is intoxicating
My vision is clouded and yet I see
Her beauty: soft, subtle and true.

[Audrins]

I really like that friendship haiku Whisp It reminds me of the hope that friends both in AO and irl give to me.

Belli, I really enjoyed that. It is verbatim the way I feel around a girl I know irl. I would quote a favorite line from it but I related and enjoyed all of the lines equally

[Audrins]

This is probably my favorite poem. It's by someone else. I had to memorize it for Drama in highschool. And recite it with projection and stage presence in class. Gene Wilder as "Willy Wonka" recites the first couple of lines from it in the original "Willy Wonka" movie.


We Are The Music Makers

We are the music-makers,
And we are the dreamers of dreams,
Wandering by lone sea-breakers,
And sitting by desolate streams.
World-losers and world-forsakers,
Upon whom the pale moon gleams;
Yet we are the movers and shakers,
Of the world forever, it seems.

With wonderful deathless ditties
We build up the world's great cities,
And out of a fabulous story
We fashion an empire's glory:
One man with a dream, at pleasure,
Shall go forth and conquer a crown;
And three with a new song's measure
Can trample an empire down.

We, in the ages lying
In the buried past of the earth,
Built Nineveh with our sighing,
And Babel itself with our mirth;
And o'erthrew them with prophesying
To the old of the new world's worth;
For each age is a dream that is dying,
Or one that is coming to birth.

Arthur William Edgar O'Shaughnessy
