Gothic Romance - A Poem.

Lost in a vale,

of pines perchance,

within a gale

of an ardent trance

Amidst  buoyant

flight, corvines dance

thrives a radiant

gothic romance

Demon Lover - A Poem.

Demented Demon Lover

Disguised Devil's Hoodlum

Dark disaster in her heart's bower

Deplorable mind of smooth scum

Disarming masks of disillusive power,

Disguises of dignified decorum

Deadly wolf in sheep's cover

Departs with disastrous outcome

I love using #Alliterations in my lines and this is one such poem where I've used a bazooka of 'D' alliterations in the verse.

The term 'Demon Lover' is from the poem, 'Kubla Khan' by Samuel Taylor #Coleridge.

Carcass of Love - A Poem.

You hid your eyes

behind masks of virtuousness;

Betrayals were smooth

& steeped in colors of darkness;

Entwined in your lies –

chain of serpents, ruthless;

My blunt truth smoulders

on my love's carcass.

She is the flame. - A Poem.

Fierce goddess, kind idol

Enigma is her name.

No one is her equal

No defeat in her game.

Strikingly brutal

None can tame.

Wild & lethal

Gallant dame!

She is the fuel

She is the flame.

Contours - A poem

Contours of canvas allusions

discover in glee

Blushed in velvety passions

strokes of hazelnut honey

Scintillating suffusions

ardent & artsy

Intense impressions

in fluid flow of ecstasy...

Smoky Kiss - A Poem.

Ghosts of the past,

sigh in smoky bliss;

Hot moments cease to last,

as crimson flames fizzle & hiss;

Misty illusions are cast,

locked in a sinful kiss...

Erotic Chaos - A Poem.

Erratic heartbeats flutter

in breathless precipice

of capricious immensity.

Melodramatic feelings mutter

& glow in mind's edifice

in calm intensity.

Erotic sighs utter

a radiant song of bliss,

in chaos of captivity.

Winter - A Poem

Twilight skies

sprinkle silver snow,

embraced by frozen leaves;

Stark beauty smiles

in winter glow,

to brighten desolate eves.

Dialogue with Nature - A Poem.

Embrace the distant horizon,

when the mind is filled with fog;

Entangle perplexing puzzles in aversion,

as intellectual obstruction does unclog;

Engage the cloak of thought in abandon

with wondrous nature in deep dialogue.

Dawn - A Poem.

My sixth tribute is to Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792-1822), who was one of the major English Romantic poets of the 2nd generation.

He was regarded as a fine lyric, as well an influential & philosophical poet in the English language.

I have used some prompts from Shelley's Poem, 'The Triumph of Life' to pen my verse.

Awakened Earth

Mountain snows 

Kiss of day

Smiling air

Melodious dew

Sweet dreams brood

Sleeping tempest

***

Celebrate 'The Triumph of Life',

dispel darkness, destroy strife; 

Get inspired by P.B.Shelley, 

pen verses of verve, in a volley...

***

 DAWN

Ravaged by freezing mountain snows,

the leafless trees lay bare;

The sleeping tempest is devoid of her throes,

sweet dreams brood in pre-dawn prayer;

An awakened earth shrugs off her icy shroud,

and welcomes the kiss of day with flair;

Famished nestlings chirp clear and loud,

Melodious dew sings, in the smiling air...
