We watch and wait,
We'll patient be,
Oh won't you come
Have tea with me?
The drink is hot,
The tales are long,
Come cast a spell
Or share a song.

It was a night
fraught with fright
his music is sublime they said
yet it filled us all with dread
no harmony, just dissonance
songs to steal our innocence
his face a mask that could not disguise
the malevolent evil in his eyes

Beyond time infinite,
Beyond the beautiful stars of heavens
there you are
Shinning with fulgor
Love in the great vault exists forevermore
Beyond the great creation you are,
my soul vague in the multicolored lights
Of love itself.

Painted and created a collage and quinzane for fun.
My ice cream pint is empty!
Sticky prints guide me
Cat licks lips.

POETRY IS THE EXPRESSION OF THE INDIVIDUAL SOUL. It adds color to one's daily life. Scribble your daily creative thoughts on paper. Nourish them frequently and watch them grow. J.R.Frieman

wishing for something more
willing this feeling to depart

even the moon laughs soft
every star seems so light

wishful thinking takes you
warping time's despair
