I'd like to nominate Michelle's All the Wile currently posted in Herme's Homilies for critique. I enjoyed the fresh subject, word choices and form very much and would like to see this one achieve a wider audience.

Cheers

All the Wile by Michelle

By day they masquerade in saccharine smiles
while feigning pleasantries. With practiced guile
they plant their schemes and brazenly parade
in saccharine smiles. By day, they masquerade.

When sunlight rests, those imps and fiends convene
unmasked, to dance a dervish round their Queen
Malevolence. They act on her behest,
those imps-- and fiends convene when sunlight rests.

With spouting sparks they sharpen trident spears
to prod when whispers fail to hold an ear.
Licentious prater permeates the dark.
They sharpen trident spears with spouting sparks.

Before I knew the sun, I romped at night
by firelight. Then, privy to their rites,
my shriveled heart was black yet weighed a ton;
I romped at night before I knew the sun.

Beware of covert brotherhoods and pacts,
of accusations made without the facts.
The average person dozes unaware
of covert brotherhoods and pacts. Beware!

I'd like to nominate If... by Judi currently posted in Herme's Homilies for critique. There's something about the soft rhythms in this that create a calming, serene state of being (for me). Not to mention, it begs the question, if we could have a 'do-over' would it be the same or would we change anything in our lives?

Food for thought! pinkpanther.gif


If... by Judi

The latticed-look of snow-filled limbs
against a winter sky.
A tinge of arctic air that blows
with such a mournful cry.
Those cabarets in France where lovers
posture in their games,
the ocean's changing tides that show
no days are quite the same.

How sudden glints of sunlight
will remind us of a prayer,
a mother's gentle murmuring,
no love can quite compare.
Red roses that a lover places
gently on the bed,
the joyfulness of ecstasy,
and love for those we wed.

If we could live life over
would we plan it just the same?
I know we'd need more happy times,
less discontent and pain.
I pray someday my life will change
before my time to go,
with many sweet new memories
that only God can know.

Judi requested that I put in her nomination for Jaxmyth's poem. She is thrilled with the excellence of the poem and it's originality. I also believe there are several members who gladly second this choice.! GREAT CHOICE JUDI! and GREAT POEM JAN!!!! ...

A Grunt with No Name by JaxMyth

The Calf is mouthing verdigris.
The Bitch of Rome is unimpressed.
Expressing her mortality
Britannia lifts and points her breast...

I met a soldier in a tree-less land,
who said:- "Once I rode upon a white horse.
Then the rain and wind had soft hands
and each day was glory come to visit.
Milk and honey seeped into my bones
and I was the Paladin and Saviour of all.

Now, I spend my nights in a savage land
each eye wracked by skeins of pale skin.
My brothers lie as broken pieces
and I stand watch wasted in the sand.

The rubble drizzles dust and men.
I try to breathe and hold myself tall
but all I hear is the sound of nails on wood
and hatred hammers down my hands and feet."

The Captive by Nada Lott

We crouched upon the forest floor
in rapt anticipation.
Comrades and conspirators,
we manned our secret station.

The object of our scrutiny
was cleverly disguised:
a simple trap my Daddy had
ingeniously devised.

A small round metal washpan
was propped up like a lid
upon a stick from which a string
led back to where we hid.

Beneath the pan, some bread crumbs
were scattered temptingly
to lure some trusting creature
into captivity.

A little bright-eyed chipmunk
came sniffing at the bait.
My fingers trembled eagerly
but Daddy whispered, "Wait."

Suspended in the stillness
of the mountains' magic sway,
I held my breath as, silently,
we watched our timid prey.

At last the chipmunk ventured in;
the moment had arrived!
I pulled the string and sprung the trap
so cunningly contrived.

I bolted up. "We got him!"
I squealed in pure delight,
"ll take him home to be my pet.
He'll sleep with me at night!"

Would Daddy spoil my moment
with a bossy "No, you can't?"
The subtle way he handled me
took on a different slant.

He put his arm around me
and, in a gentle voice,
began to talk about some things
that might affect my choice.

That morning at the chipmunk home
this scene might have occurred,
and here's the conversation
we might have overheard:

"Oh, Mother, what a lovely day!
May I go in the woods and play?
A little girl named Mary Kay
is camping there along the way.
I want to visit her to say
I'm glad she came and hope she'll stay.
Your fondest wish I will obey,
but please, please Mother, say I may."

"Now, son, I told you long ago,
you've got to learn to take it slow
when meeting strangers -- you don't know
if you've encountered friend or foe.
But Mary Kay sounds nice, and so
I guess it's all right if you go.
Don't give me cause for worry, though.
Be home before the sun is low."

He then described the mother
as she stood out by the gate
to call her kids to supper,
but the youngest one was late.

And even at that moment,
unaware of what we'd done,
the frantic chipmunk mother
would be searching for her son.

Before he got the last words out
I felt so mean and low,
with teardrops streaming down my face
I hollered, "LET HIM GO!"

* * *

As we released our little friend,
I'm sure my dad suppressed a grin.
The maestro knew that, once again,
he'd played me like a violin.

I thank the Lord for giving me
a father wise enough to see
the greatest gifts will ever be
those offered voluntarily.

I think this is wonderful piece - Eric conveys theatrical 'drama' with his word choices and rhythms. I can visualize the scene of a theatre and the cast playing out, and while the focus is on them, I like how he lead us to the person watching - his thoughts drifting to a lost love and then the closing couplet, summarizing the loss of both time and her. Even though we so not know the background, I sense the loss too.


Nocturne by Merlin

He sits and watches clouds as they perform
their evening romp in rouge and twilight masks;
these casts of thespians accomplish tasks,
dispensing scenes a cut above the norm.
In phantom blue, a hazy castle looms,
a shadow figment filled with youthful dreams
like Ludwig's Schwanstein, built from welkin schemes,
while breakers' ebbing surf dispels his gloom.
His thoughts find wings and drift off on their own
to Jennifer, the love he left behind
in Winnipeg; she still torments his mind
despite untallied seasons. Time has flown.

A nightbird's call disrupts his reverie
but cannot grant his wish to set him free.

Thank you very much, ladies, for the encouragement about this poem. Michelle, I'm deeply honored by the nomination, and pleased beyond measure that you were touched by the story. In looking at the kind of poetry they favor, though, I'm declining consideration for IBPC. It's one of my first poems that, for sentimental reasons, I don't plan to polish. Should it by any chance be selected to represent MM, I feel it would be like throwing a lamb to a pack of wolves. Some things are just too tender to expose to the elements. I hope you understand.

Mary

Thanks Mary for your reply. I'll make a note in the title, "humbly declined" if that's ok with you.

Perhaps Michelle will consider nominating this for our 'internal' MM award - the Faery? Faery Awards can be nominated by any member of MM at any time. These are awarded to those tiles that best capture our muses in some way.

The how-to & nomination thread is located here in our Valley of the Kings (click this link) member recognition forum as a sticky topic. I also have a link to it in my signature on posts.

I really enjoyed this poem and the metaphors within (as well as the rhythm and rhymes) as well as the visual presentaion. I am touched by each re-read of this poem and its message.



VVVVV



With invisible wings
we fly.

You and I lift
like birds in formation.

As the weak may fall
we heed the call;
strong we’ll be
to keep our V
in victory.

Together we
breathe -
synchronized,
harmonized,
energized
as season
meets season.

Freedom's power calls hour by hour;
we defend strength in unison.
With invisible wings

we fly,
we fly,
we fly.

We rush.
Hear the lift of wings?
Our spirit soulfully sings.
Together we rush, hush,
embrace with honor,
freedom, our greatest gift.



VVVVV

I'd like to nominate 'Tricolor Pride' by Cathy for it's undying message . A poignant poem!

Tricolor Pride by Cathy


Revised:

Tricolor Pride ~ Revision 2

She flies for freedom; off'ring choice
to listen to the homeland voice
in proof through... night... our flag's still there...*
with strength and glory all can share.

Although she's slightly battle-worn
from bullet holes and cutlass scorn,
word-whipped until her hem-edge curls
by mean-mouthed, uncouth, sadist churls;

she's softened by a mother's tears
and strengthened by a father's fears...
in solace for the ones who've cried
to honor loved ones who have died.

Still she survives, beliefs opined.
Historical events enshrined
she waves her stars and stripes in hope
that others draw within her scope.

Her stitches, sewn by loving hands,
withstand the rigor of demands
to bind our nation's future fast
against a terroristic caste.

We soldiers, armed with loyalty
and hearts that yearn to be kept free,
together charge the battlefield
to fight with might; we'll never yield.

We'll carry her with fervent vows
and tend her wounds when time allows.
Her cause may often be denied,
yet faith unfurled... she flies with pride.

* A line from The Star Spangled Banner

You know Mary, I understand completely. This poem, though, is my all time favorite work of a living poet. It is genuine poetry, imo.

I hope you wouldn't mind if I nominate it for the Faery Award that Cleo pointed out? I also understand either way, my small world is enriched by it.

Thank you for sharing it.

my best,

Michelle
