CAMELOT FANTASIES

Profuse in fiery passion
Did glorious Autumn
Succumb
                  Surrender
To Winter’s bleak embrace

 #SlamWords
....

Through copious tears that rained on down
Did the Heavens adore a parched land
Bringing forth fresh buds of newborn Spring

 #SlamWords
....
As morning mist
Within valleys deep
Echoes of fears
Once all too real
Disappear
                   Fade
Until just a memory

Did your courage waver in those final hours
As darkness encroached and the light did fade
When all that you believed was put to the test
And left you naked, alone crying softly for aid

...
Left upon that grassy knoll
Where the scent of cordite yet lingers
Memories cascade in mourning waterfall
& history sends imagination reeling
Did those wheels & wagons of long ago
In the ebb and tide of cruel Fate’s whims
Lead us to the here & now of destiny

So fragile in her delicate beauty
Winter’s cloak in exquisite detail
Wrought in gossamer designs
To beautify First Frost’s icy kiss

Among the clouds
Set me flying
High on high
In an azure sky
Among the birds
I’ll spread my wings
Cloud castle dreaming
Of wishes - hopes
And wonderful things

#DimpleVerse
...

The years hang heavy
My world spins on
Everyone I knew
Now dead and gone
With a heavy heart
Weighing me down
I’m last one standing
Now all on my own

Lost in reverie
Of memories golden
Treasured and precious
My MEMORY GARDEN
 I rest my soul
Count my blessings
Thinking of us
Together

Surrender to Fate
Let the universe decide
Que sera sera
Whatever will be
Will surely be
At the sinking of the sun
At the low ebb of the day
Remember you did
Once
Walk on water
Before the years grew many
& old friends grew too few

#zenverse
...
Eternity beckons
But I’m not ready
Unfinished business
I tell myself
Promises made
Left dusty
Upon a shelf
Hand over hand
Back and forth
To twist
Writhe
Am I coming
Or going
Caught fast
In throes of time
Without control
Fast losing my mind

As the last rose of Autumn
She bloomed in full glory
Afore the brambles took hold
Cruelly crushing out her flame

The SWEETEST AGONY
I'VE EVER HAD
Was hearing you loved me
Before things turned bad
For one precious moment
So sweet and so pure
I was your entire world
And you rapturously mine

#DimpleVerse
...

Be not so bold
Ye knights of old
To kings & queens
You are bought and sold
Sent upon quests
Seeking fortunes in gold
To fight cruel dragons
Breathing fire at the door
Or winning damsels’ hearts
So sweet and so pure

#BardBits prompt 76

From the depths
So cold and cruel
Comes a beast
Of legends tell

With twisted tentacles
Malevolent gaze
Watch your back
The kraken awakes

Into the deep
Far down below
Seamen cast their fate
And meet their foe

#wineverses
...

Consumed in passion’s burning quicksand
Caught fast within a carnal maelstrom
She shed inhibitions to rise as a phoenix
Dancing naked beneath a blood red moon

#DimpleVerse
...

Look deep, my friend, don’t be shy
The amethyst mystic shards don’t lie
Your destiny foretold if you can but see
The dangers that lurk within the deep
Sapphire blue to be your shroud
Within Neptune’s arms you shall be found
