Charms and Trinkets

Will I adorn your arms
With all sorts of charms

Baubles, Trinkets and colors to spare
The rainbow itself you shall wear

A queen among peasants
A peacock among pheasants

Worth showering with presents
And all that it represents

With some luck and a boon
We shall sail under the moon

All for adorning these lovely arms
With some trinkets and some charms

Bounty On Her Heart

Princes and Kings have tried and failed
To win this free woman’s heart for them
She cannot be won some say she is a restless spirit
A soul with no mate a heart with no shape

Some have offered her silver and gold
Others castles, kingdoms and pieces of land
Her loves cost cannot be summed with calculator
She takes offense to those who try

Infantile men wounded by rejection
Are driven into flashing fits of rage
Threats against her friends and relatives
Are something she sometimes endures

What is it about her some would say
That instills a propensity to fall in love
If you are clever enough to make her smile
You would be blessed to feel so copesetic

Her incandescent beauty radiates bright
Drawn from the energy of a thousands suns
Some would consider her seduction burlesque
Most however find the flavor delicious

A touch by her hand can induce a catatonic state
Lets you have the fortitude to withstand
Something unnatural and ageless about this girl
Which is why the world wants her hand with no exemption

Spitting image of a goddess turned mortal
Flowers grow wherever she walks
Feel her presence and you will understand
Why there is a bounty on her heart

-Poem by Dragon Blogger

Give You The World

If only I could wrap you in a cloud
The sky would be yours to soar
If only I could sail you to the sun
The sea would be yours to command

Moving mountains would be at your command
If the strength of gods I should possess
Slay your worries as knights slay dragons
I shall be your one true hero

If only I could provide more than I am able
Would it show just how much I would do
For you are the one I live for
I aspire to give you the world

A Flash

A flash and my mind goes numb
did I just see this girl walk past
my heart stopped beating and time stood still
just enough time to gaze at her beauty

A flash and I had to act quickly
before this lady left my life forever
how would I get her to notice me
my hopes and dreams rest on this second

A flash and I reacted on instinct
her hand came into contact with mine
a jolt of surreal knocked back my senses
this girl just overloaded my mind

A flash and my eyes met hers
a small smile crept on her face
she knew my thoughts and I felt hers
that was all it took to win her

Fifty years later that lady is still with me
How I remember each and every flash of our lives
our children our grown and our time is dwindling
what a life I have lead and it will end in a flash.

-Poem by Dragon Blogger

You Will Always Be My Love

I was born with a single purpose
A soul who was lost without a mate
A journey I have undertaken
Our lives are the only stakes

In finding you I felt whole
In loving you I am complete
My soul is in peace and my mind at rest
With you by my side the world is at my feet

We have had our fair share of pain
And a sprinkle of some grief
But destiny would challenge us so
As if to test if we are true

So loving you is loving me
My heart shall know no other
For you are the greatest treasure
And will always be my love and our childrens mother

-JRG

Furry Four Legged Friend

I see you staring at me
Freedom blocked by clear pane of suffering
You must feel lonely and afraid
Yet you only show love and affection

your soft nose melts against the glass
your eyes plead to my heart
your little cries and gentle squeels
soften me a bit more

I was about to walk past
Ignore this intrusion in my busy day
But something about you interrupted that
In a most special way

Before I have time to think I act
Never considering it a mistake
A rash decision based on pure emotion
You won me over in less than a minute

Shall I call you Buster, Ben or Bear
You are brown as the dusky earth
With some white spots like sprinkled snowflakes
You are part of my family now

This poem today was crafted from seven words provided to me by tweeple on twitter. I really enjoy doing this contest where I just ask people to send me random words on twitter and I create a completely original and new poem using the crafted words from scratch. It only takes me about 10 minutes to create a poem once I find a common theme for the words. Let me know what you think of today’s contest poem. (All of the Twitter words provided are highlighted in blue)

Waiting For Your Return

We embraced and said our goodbyes
You would return soon
Time has now slowed to a crawl
As I sit at home thinking of you

Sing me a song in the coldest of winters
Where the wind blows and chill sets in
My sweat will freeze into icicles
My heart will crystallize until it feels your warmth

Love is the only verisimilitude
All I do is lay at night
Waiting to witness your majestic beauty
And this absence leaves me with an excruciating loneliness

So I lay here feeling blue and care to remember
the last time I felt your kiss
our eyes danced with each other
and our hearts beat as one

Fire Burning In My Eyes

Fire burns so very bright
your face aglow in this great white light
This fire radiates from deep within me
A flame with no heat that you can see

This fire may seem like a frightening rage
it may trap my soul within a cage
or beckon your spirit to join me in here
but really it burns to bring you near

So douse my eyes with your beauty
when my fire dies you will not get sooty
disrobe and lets start to put my fire out
your sweat quenches my body’s drought

So at last I lie drenched and cool
my body and my heart you rule
my passion for you knows no bounds
I must be careful not to drown

-Poem by Dragon Blogger

This poem I wrote from a contest on Twitter, where I asked my followers to direct message me random words and I would craft a poem.  I have highlighted the contest words in blue.

The Lust Queen

With eyes that can swallow your soul
a face carved from the purest marble
a smile so evil yet so alluring
you weaken at the knee’s

The sages warned of this portent
this queen ravages those who worship
with a body that calls to any man’s sex drive
and a spirit that invites the most pious priest

So the mortal man gives in to temptation
The Queen savors his body like cheese and wine
His will breaks, his body broken
She discards him among the pile of those who came before
