Comet

Balls of light abound from mars,
comets fire destroy cars.
Lights now flicker,
windows break.
A far off rumble turns to quake.

Seas now rise from calm to squall,
mother natures mercy call.
the path is chosen, the dye is cast,
The boat is holed,we're sinking fast.

Re: The Bully

Hodgepodge, I think there's some great talent in you waiting to be unleashed, the idea you have here is a very good one. The format is a bit muddled but there are great ideas in there. You will learn to form your writing much better if you take on board the helpful advice you get here. Look forward ...

The Beach.

Ripples cast on mirror glass,
frequencies of ocean.
Solar flares upon the waves,
a million cast each motion.

Flotsam and jetsam come ashore,
to free their heads of sand.
Dusting off their salt-coats,
to test sealegs on land.

Re: Gypsy

Guys, thanks for taking the time to read this and give your views.
Been way too busy of late to write but dipping the toe in again.
The morph word fitted for me as i didn't visualise gypsy as a being of matter, more of an energy.

many thanks

Gypsy

Gypsy morphs his hand to mask his face in moonlight, a costume change for well worn travellers clothes. A lunar lit highway of dimensions, a road that only mystic see-ers know. Trails blazed by great minds long before them, pin-holes of knowledge overflow. Free flight's the only way to travel, open ...

Delay

We set off early,to avoid the rush hour, which now seemed to our folly. Our excitement had sheered a fan belt, the tailback lashed us hard. Now quite used to this charade, since the air miles had run dry. Single lane for next ten miles, delays at junction five. The wife's no sense of direction, the ...

Re: Drifting off (Tucked in)

Hi,I really liked this, it had a dreamy and grief filled feel to it, was she dreaming of someone she'd lost?
I feel sorrow in there for sure, anyway vivid and very much enjoyed.

Colossus

Heavy air hung sand filled, a veil for distant dunes. Behind the guise of matter, in the notes of mystic tunes. Waters clear and energized, a force of immeasurable power. Lapping waters hypnotize, each minute turns to hour. Her shorelines hug her tenderly, sands so brilliant,pure and bright. A colos...
