Haiku – ‘In the Hush of Night’ – A poem by Goff James
Day: March 9, 2020
Kiss Me Written By Nichole Sulpizio
Dreaming of your soft lips
Essence of your breath
The taste of the tip of your tongue
I come undone
Fantasies replay
Rewinding everyday
Needing his wet mouth on mine
Drenched in red lipstick
Red wine
Biting my lower lip
Gently
Unable to hold back
Needing him
To kiss me

Help Me, For I Am Dreaming
“I can’t help but dream of the day,
the day we become one again.”
It’s winter again, and I’m reminded of how you used to hold me in the night. When the air was too cold, but your body heat was enough to keep me from shivering. I cling to your scent, not wanting it to disappear. But I’m still here, under the same sheets, and I’m beginning to feel the ghost of your touch fade from my memories. I’m still here, and yet I’m beginning to panic. The thought of forgetting your scent haunts me, because there isn’t anything left of us but memories….

we lost track of time,
smooth sailing
or so we thought…
the quiet before the storm
that muddied the waters
they say that time heals all wounds
but I’m not so sure,
time is more a sticky band-aid
that lessens the pain
but only time will tell
for the writing on the wall,
denotes happily ever after
dead in the water

Too Late ~A Poem By Walt Page, The Tennessee Poet
I stand before you
A Poet
All former glory now gone
Nothing left but my pride
I once had it all
But no longer
Nothing is left
Just memories
Of another time
I still write when my health allows it
Life was so easy then
Before the fall
I created images with words
Nothing fancy
Just raw, unadorned thoughts
Formed into poetry
Or something close to it
I want my health back
I want my life back
I want our love back
But it may be too late
~The Tennessee Poet ~

A Six-Word Story
Daily Prompts- Ready?
(Image credit: Pinterest)
Are you ready for an adventure?
Take a friend along and make it a day
Don’t be deterred by the water from the Sky
Or any glitch that comes trying to spoil your plans
Everything depends on how you see it
See an opportunity to have fun and you’ll get it
And if you see the dark clouds and not the silver lining
It will be your fault when the day live up to your expectations
