Freedom ‘s In Love Four feet on the porch. Arrive. Red: the passionate roses a simile for the flush of a face. Alive. Electrifying: each touch. empowering voltage generated in a glance. Expression: whole self in soft adoration. a simplicity in the trance. Destiny or Fate: the authors of internal tranquility and perfected symmetry. Openness untold: a vision of faultless...

I saw a bee I saw a bird I saw a butterfly. Each flew across the garden Silent, harmless, good and clean But far above a plane flew higher Far from silent Far from clean Ruthless mankind’s smart intrusion On God’s good and perfect scene. ...

Premium Member The Canvas of Constrast v2
Picasso's fractured forms, a jagged, broken line, A world of angles where my vision can't align. I yearn for harmony, a smooth, unbroken flow, But in your chaos, a hidden truth, I know. Monet's light, a gentle caress, a soothing balm, His brushstrokes whisper a calming, peaceful calm, The water's surface is a shimmering, liquid dream, Reflecting beauty, a world where...

Bright whites expand with pristine joy as rays of sunshine fast employ, uplifting feelings in the heart where hopeful dreams will always...

Premium Member Two Friends In Contrast
We are friends for ever more, you will never be a bore. Laughing until we are on the floor, it's you I adore. Then came the war, your words right out of a bookstore. Mean words I did not ask for, so I closed the big wooden door.  No more of your uproar, I want peace to even up the score. CONTRAST: Powerful words both good...

Premium Member Paradigm Of Contrast
For the contrived inducement of fixated being, the transmuting tenet of uniqueness, the personified indented identity, changes in the self-devised palette of metamorphosed color mélange, while the conjured chameleon slyly cocooned, paints the shifting façade of deception. In the ostensible enactment of life’s incredible drama, the performance perfected in one-act play with the obsession of passion professed, gilding the consequence crafted...
