iambic pentameter what, what!

Blinking beautiful are those superb eyes
Even though they are your clever disguise
Seeing through them, easier said than done
Let’s escape beyond the bright mocking sun
There’s this longing now for you I’m feeling
Exploding out of me to the ceiling
But I hold your hand away it will go
I want to hide with you under the snow

Weekly Haiku #9

I can see signs
Through harmless affection, I can
Feel the connection

Feel the connection
Between you and me, we are
Rhyming from land to sea

Rhyming from land to sea
Belonging so close, we love
'Till we decompose

Weekly Haiku #8 (last week)

Curiosity
A pain in my brain, grows with
Generosity

Weekly Haiku #7

the red is blinding
the greed can not be erased
now we're all the same

mini-Sestina

The young girl was afraid
She shudders at the darkness
Her parents urge on her success
The bows in her hair, cause her to be limited

The young boy was afraid
To hide inside the darkness
To get dirty, to feel limited
To make others feel inferior by his own success

The two children are limited
In their feelings and success
They don’t want to be afraid
So they send the mirror to the darkness

And with that they have success
And no longer is there darkness
How can they be afraid
Without the mirror they can not be limited

Weekly Haiku #6 (Post-Fail)

Chilly and wind blown
We can see the smog of breath
Pain from cold fingers

Pain from cold fingers
Sore stinging cheeks from being
Continually

Continually
Smacked, defaced by frigid air
My legs run from it

My legs run from it
Then I’m attacked by warm air
Surrounded by smiles

Surrounded by smiles
Reaching for a mug filled with
Brown liquid and love

So I decided to write a sequence Haiku since I've been failing lately. So, I hope this makes up for it! Also it's been awfully chilly around these parts...

Weekly Haiku #5

To enlighten the
world one must have fortitude
You must have passion

Balance

Weekly Haiku #4

A cloudy day can
be hidden by a sunny
fake disposition

Weekly Haiku #3

Though you would think, you're
Infinitesimal, you're
As large as you think

Respond with your own!

classic

it's a sign

The power of words. Speak up.

You are...

You are capable,
there's no extent to what of.
You are strong,
in body and in mind.
You are talented,
simply because you try.
You are intelligent,
because of your willingness to learn.
You are beautiful,
because you are different.
You are powerful,
the world is both impressed and itimidated.
You are loved,
because of the love you give and bring.
You are you,
All these things
And so much more.

Weekly Haiku #2

A carbon copy
Free from differences, and of
Personality

Respond with your own!

The Sun and the Clouds

The sun seems radiant
It's bright and bold
Perhaps too bright
And it tells us how to think
Us clouds try to cover it

We must realize that the sun's rays
They are not the brightest
We can cover the rays
We ourselves,
Have a bright white color
We can affect the world
Our powers change the world

We use our rain to add beauty
To add flowers and keep the grass green
We use our lightning to rid the world
Of the trees that our dark and looming
And our winds, our winds can change so many things

The sun's powers, though great
Can sometimes be harmful
Though the sun was meant to shed light
But on some certain summers
The light can burn
Though it's not to bright
That us clouds can not conceal it

We must always use our winds
We can not allow the sun to shine through us
We must keep the light from being too bright
And the Sun from becoming too powerful

Ghosts are about!

Some flowers!

Weekly Haiku #1

Thoughts will inspire
Creation, with the help of
Imagination

I'm initiating a weekly Haiku! Fun fun, right? You can respond with your own!

(That's my little brother, in case you were wondering:))

Here's a Little Poem

You notice first what is beautiful
Though even the plants with the greenest leaves
Have a certain flaw
But if you see the flaw in a different light
You see that the whole thing is beautiful
And the flaw is what makes it that way

Post it pictures

Yeah I'm not the the best artist. My brother drew the last one. :)

A Couple of Haikus About Art

Art can't pay the bills
But art should inspire bills
That can change the world

If you feel transformed
And if you can't stop thinking
You have witness art

Haikus are not art
Art should have no restrictions
Stupid Haikus. HA

It's true, I don't think Haikus are art. More like fun with words!

There's a meaning here somewhere...

How Artsy.

Taken somewhere in Mt.Pleasant


Pittsburgh airport. That's right.

Zinnia

There's a space in my garden

Where an orange zinnia grows

It stands out among the rest

It's color is different

It's color is bold

Though it tends to try to blend in

Among the grass and other flowers

Which to me are unremarkable

The petals

Oh, the petals take your breath away

Far, far from ordinary

A bright orange

Just the petals causes all around to stop

But the glow coming from its yellow center

Is underrated and truly special

It is beautifully imperfect

Few notice it, but when they do

They never stop

I breathe in its scent

Indescribable and indefinable

Only to say it is unmistakable

I allow the scent to fill me up

To carry me away

I know I shouldn't

The scent is forbidden

Big misunderstanding eyes find my orange zinnia

For some reason it's not right

Its glow cannot stay in my garden

The big eyes have hands

They take it away quickly

But carefully as if not to harm me

What will replace it?

A tall stoic sunflower?

A daisy that grows too close to the ground?

These will have to grow in another place

For that spot was for an orange zinnia

There's an empty space in my garden

Where the zinnia belongs

And felt safe

Its glow was brighter than ever

My eyes gaze upon the space

I hold onto a memory

Of an unmistakable scent

And an underrated color

And a glow like no other

(I know the picture's not of a zinnia. No one's perfect. But I'd say it's pretty good for being taken by a Walmart camera.)
