Unbidden Poems - Poems about Unbidden

Oh, it is like any other night Quite quietly still Neither a stir nor a quiver Neither a hush nor a shush No stars, not even the moon peeking through the dark quilt of a shadowless night. Yet my heart is pounding heartlessly Yet my mind is meandering mindlessly. It is about time to curl up and repose let my soul slumber and debunk...

The wind taunts me with unbidden memories, It curses me, Gives me no lasting solace. It reminds me of that lovely day When we wandered o'er the hills, Wild fragrant thyme perfumed The graceful countryside. The wind had breezed through Your silken hair. Your luscious eyes sparkled with love. I blame indifference for this lustful world. Now you are gone forever, my dear, While I lament...

Wounds drained, opened, ingrained, rained, sprained, trained In the midst of a family loss Recriminations canned, fanned, planned, tanned To fight the brute boss Dressed up as justice cause Disguised as implementation of lopsided justice Pursued to discredit the family rose Oppressed in the sluice Where survival sap flows In a bid to catalyze vitality Where Providence fluid blows The breath of consolidation and maturity Grown in...

A gallant, unbidden, appeared one night inside my room; mere words he never spoke! He came creeping softly in the moonlight. A gallant, unbidden, appeared one night with caresses so sweet I felt it might have only been a dream once I awoke. A gallant, unbidden, appeared one night inside my room. Mere words he never spoke. Sept. 21, 2017 for Broken Wing's...

Late-September tingles on wispy nights, blowing a mild drizzle from crisp, eastern winds and lays on the hammock of gilded foliage, to decorate a new season's mantle: Its fire and earth mesh with time's luster, weaving a texture which displays a soul’s contentment from nature's hymn, that deigns to fully acknowledge such Virgo...
