'Renewal'
He sat forlorn
Upon a bench
Weathered grey
Murky water
Lapping at his
Worn out shoes.
Thunder rumbled
In the distance...
A chilling wind
He pulled his
Tattered coat
Around him.
He closed his eyes
A brilliant light
His Mother's arms
Reached out to him
Smiles...laughter
His old dog
Sam was barking...
It all was there...
Waiting.
With his last breath
He murmured thanks...

'Autumn'
Trees now bored
With summers green
Await Frosts brush
New color scheme
Of orange and red
Vibrant pink
Before they shed
Their lovely gowns
And naked bare
Suffer winters
Fridgid stare...

'Memorial to War'
Thunder heart
Eye of Tear
Bonded Brothers
Blood and Fear
Duty...Freedom
Masters call
To Dust
And names
Upon a Wall...

'Thief'
Hate filled words
Jackals gnawing
Flesh from bone
Stop the pain
Please...Stop the pain!
Their echo haunts
My wounded brain.
Hate filled words
Hidden in
Dark corners of her mind.
Once turned loose
Winged bats from hell
Cought me in their
Wicked spell
I'm Angry...Hurt
Pushed way off track
I want my loving
Spirit back...

'Orbit'
I have come to a place
Where my soul
Truly lives
Not of this world
Or any other.
But my own
For I am of
And beyond
And All
Of everything
I am unique
Non other is
Or was
Or ever will be
As I.
A planet
Unto myself.

'Puppy Luv'
I know you're
Hiding
In the closet!
Come on out
Come on now...
Yes...I found my chewed up slipper...
I didn't want it anyhow.

'Fly Away...Fly!'
Depression comes
When someone
Covers your cage
Because
Your song annoys them.

'Nothing'
Nothing brings you pain
Like love
For Nothing's bold enough to dare
Nothing can be sure you'll take
What Nothing wants to share.
Nothing takes you by surprise
When he walks out the door.
Dry your eyes...dear one
For soon...
Nothing matters any more.

'Smokers Beware!'
Microphone held tightly
To her throat....
She waited with her answer.
I had asked....
"What happened to your voice"
She rasped..."It died of Cancer."

'The Hurt'
The hurt won't go away
And That's the thing...
I pretend it isn't there
But it won't ring
of truth
Because my Heart can't sing.
by Kesti©
'Vulnerable'
My
Sensitivity
Gives Power
To
Slime.
by Kesti©
'Rabid'
Cruel..cutting words
Vultures of her will
Swooping at my spirit
Hoping for the Kill!
by Kesti©
'Connection'
It Still
Astonishes me
That message in a glance
The split-second
Knowing.
by Kesti©
'Only Fifteen'
He kissed me
and
My young heart
Galloped 'round the bend
I could not reign it in
The whole night through...
I'd waited for that moment
For what seemed a long long time
My first loves tender kiss
My dream come true.
by Kesti©
'Sonnet'
How oft' I've wondered
At your beauty....Rose.
With dew drops nestled
On your velvet cheek
Shy bud awaits
The kiss of Sun
Your Prince...
And then unfolds
Your elegance for all to see.
You garden Princess
You may take a bow
And revel in your glory...
It abounds.
An encore will await you
On the morrow
and
Dew drops there
An omen to foretell
tears will come too soon
As your reign ends
As age comes swift
no mercy
Does it show.
And now your Prince the Sun
Withdraws your life
Sipping precious
Moisture from your velvet cheek
And leaving parchment drying
In its stead...
Harsh life!!!! When beauty fades
Will we feel dead?
by Kesti©
'Listen'
The sound that you hear
If you pay close attention
Poets
Tapping into
The next dimension.
by Kesti©
'Crossover'
She was thin
And frail
and old.
Yet they struggled with her coffin.
Filled with troubles
That spilled over on the lawn.
As her spirit rose above them
Freed at last of earthly woes...
She smiled and waved goodbye
And she was gone.

Attention!
I have had over ONE MILLION visitors to this, My AOL Site in the last nine years.
The counter kept reverting back to zero, but I kept my own records each week.
I have now attached my two sites together under one counter starting at 2000.
This is March 15, 2007.
I hope I will not have any more trouble with counters. Sincerely, Kesti
