Once upon a time no fairy tale
From the start, you have made assumptions. I had something or I was someone. It was all in your wild imaginations, I did not plan it to happen. I meant no harm, was really innocent. I did not lie, pretend or act, To deceive, hurt or harm you deliberately. Just that I did not know you, Not well at all to correct you, To...

AUTUMN
I can still see a picture long gone,  waves of the ocean welcome and greets every edge of it. The shedding leaves, Then a thunder,  Reminds me of that picture with many cracks.  But just like autumn,  would the picture be also flowering in the near future?  Its shadow lingers around my thoughts, every glimpse of it reminds me of a new...

Premium Member Saturday With Frank O'Hara
Mid Autumn, Saturday 6.30am and daybreak is slowly climbing over the back fence. Frank O'Hara's poetry is still echoing in my head from reading it last night as I cook breakfast of bacon and eggs. Later I walk up the street to the chemist to get my blood pressure pills and as I walk, compile arguments against Postmodernism and recognise that the notion...

silent words cascade unseen, unheard, fade away— lonely ink weeps dreams words fall like dead leaves no hand stirs to hold their weight— autumn of the soul untouched art cries out silent beauty lost to void— a poet unseen ...

F for final farewell and finish
2025.4.14. I have started writing diary since May last year. Eventually, my diary's style, transformed to poem like. After five months of losing friendship with BB, By the end of the year, I rested a bit. I was emotional exhausted. I started posting my poem in mid January this year, When JC introduced me to the poetry world. Every thing went well so...

Scar
If I were that scar above your rose tinted lips, of whom you keep picking and removing dead cellular dust, out of hatred that rises from your porous subcutaneous layer of insecurity, I probably would have bled more than you think. I couldn't have shed tears, possibly. But I've heard every little wound needs love to heal, And so will I- your dearest...

Premium Member Autumn Scene
Climbing cotton clouds float away across canvas of summer sky. Birds bathe in blue bay, to amber nest they fly. Autumn comes with golden spray. Sunburst horizon’s chromatic drape drawn, splits sunbeam in spectral splendor. Sky spills colors of dawn, air sways cinnamon grass slender in malachite meadow, turning fawn. The crown of topaz dew shines with...

Rain and Seasons
I wait for the rain, So it may express what I never could. —And when it falls, I want it to pour relentlessly, To match the depth of my devastation. Though it can't last forever— Somehow I want my devastation to fade away; Like rain sometimes does. I want my heartache to change like seasons do, I need to know what—spring, summer, autumn,...

Premium Member In a late autumn, when the last leaf sways on the branch of fate
In a late autumn, when the last leaf sways on the branch of fate, I have not learned to love, only to possess, to capture in threads of connections, Fragile yet unyielding ties, a dance of possession that knows not love, It's more than obsession, yet not quite possession, an enigma without answer. I do not let feelings live...

The music and I
2025.4.11 Every day, I get up early, travel to M Central. I waited for the piano to be available. As soon as I opened its lid, I wiped the keyboard clean. Well, that perfectly fitted my nickname "Captain hygiene". Currently, the first piece of music Would always be the "Fall for you", I did that to welcome the Autumn season. As well as my...

Premium Member Spring to Fall
Spring Bouquet Bulbs appear Flower petals Rejoice and open Spreading joyful color As trees awaken with buds Attracting bees and butterflies Songbirds have returned to feed and nest Nature explodes as springtime has arrived Nature’s fiesta has come to an end Days are shorter as darkness commends Songbirds are migrating in flocks Vibrant leaves swirl in the wind Branches become barren Trees become sleepy Hibernation Hiatus Restful Fall ...
