Jonathan ROBIN Poems

They say display of blindman's bluff,
verse accolades to gain,
limp lines time challenge long enough
won't find their waiting vain.

neither greed, nor need for speed,
joy uncontained

Empathy we reach

Ghost of Cleopatra ‘neath the Nile
A thousand years had haunted twice before
In hearing of fresh fame sh[ad]e knew for sure
Life witness bears to one whose peerless smile
...

Wishy Washy I
train brain, strain grey cells' refrain,
ever seeking 'why'?
...

In seduction I lack
not one whit in the sack,
make strategic attack -
maiden's tongue tied and, thwack!

Above appear a blanket of Spring snow.

Arriving by air

No Curfew tolls the knell of parting day,
no lowing herd winds slowly o'er the lea,
though plowman homeward plods his weary way,
world sinks to darkness underneath the sea.
...

While chimney's logged lips
purse around the flaming tongue,
Spring rain, spitting, drips.
