Lips that pouted, soft and plump
How he longed to hungrily kiss her

Watching quietly, as she lie asleep
He knew in his heart, he would miss her

No chance for him to stay the night
He needed to leave while he could

She always knew he would return
Some things are just understood

One last glance, as he left the room
How he wanted so much to wake her

His heart always caused him such grief
Next time, he promised, he’d take her

The pearl of the sea, she trusts him
Yet, it’s only his hand she can see

Hesitant to let go of her gem
She waits for a sign, his plea

He does not want the opalescence
Only what she hides, in her shell

The maiden, is his only desire
And her heart begins to swell

Every man before him
Wanted only to reap the reward

Pearls, from the mermaid, who guards them
Leaving the lady, unexplored

But he finds the beauty, within her
Nacre holds nothing, compared

To the woman, who lives below the surf
His love for her now declared

Two ladies hung out in a window

Dressed in their best lingerie

Complained about this one certain man

Who whistled, when walking their way

What do you think, one asked

I have no idea, said the other

Perhaps he fancies the clothes you wear

I’ve heard about this, from my mother!

Oh, you’re so silly, replied her friend

But maybe I’ll give him a shot

Why not, said the woman, dressed in brown

He seems to think purple is hot!

Courage, so we may chase away fears

Happiness, to wipe away the tears

A sliver of hope, throughout the land

That we walk together, hand in hand

To pray for peace, and show we can

Embrace our differences, love each man

Friday Fantasy ~ Splintered Fragments – #poetry #SeptemberWriting

Beware the shards, shattered en masse

Splintered fragments, broken glass

Fractured pieces, glimmered fright

One bite of the apple, was evil’s delight

Her rapturous stare, dug deeper within

He was caught in the fractals, reflected again

The sins of the man, he mirrored, you see

No longer innocent, the victim was he

She promised, to let him go free, on a whim

Then snickered, she knew twas the end of him

She showed him no mercy, she thrived on disdain

The sweeter his demons, the deadlier his pain
