Youth Poems
Sunshine of Youth
by Evelyn Judy Buehler
Frisky kitty is in fresh, velvety flowers,
Dancing all the honeyed bloom hours.
As song drifts from the secret bowers,
Lacy clouds waft and the sun smolders.
Kitty courses in color and sweet odors,
The spell of youth has strange powers,
In greener days that happiness towers,
Until sun grows mellower and mellower.
Woman in Chains
by Evelyn Judy Buehler
She lately hears lyric nightingale at the sole window,
And through its bars witnesses a melancholy moon,
And her heart longs for the freedom of velvety flight,
But lessons she now knows weren't learned too soon!
An innocent victim of childhood abuse and ensuing rage,
In the days of sugar plum fairies and make believe,
A streetwise teenage runaway, who soon lost her way,
After making an unwise choice of whom she would love!
During lights out she makes plans and begins to reminisce,
Knowing in her young heart, it won't always be like this,

Distance
by Rhys O’Donnell
I wanted to speak with you tonight
Your presence was inviting
I have trouble finding the right words
Could you ever look my way
A group gathers around you
I try to stay beside
They cling to your words like I
Rushing to understand you

My Name Is Horace
by Randy Johnson
In 1987, he starred in a movie that was called 'The Monster Squad'.
At a very young age, he died and went to Heaven to be with God.
Two other movies that he starred in were 'Home Free' and 'Dance 'Til Dawn'.
When he died of Pneumonia in 1987, it was hard to believe that he was gone.
He abandoned his acting career to study law before dying at the age of 22.
To die at such a young age is unfair and ridiculous, and that certainly is true.
[Dedicated to Brent Chalem (1975-1997) who died on December 9, 1997.]
The Anthem of Youth
by Peter Dr Lim
An Anthem of Youth
.....but we were so young then
and blood was wildly rushing
through our every vein-
our heart was in unstoppable flame
there was no asking why
with no rules to comply-
we wrote our poems
in rapturous abandon

ECLIPSED/REBELLION :
by ink waver
In the abyss where wispers creep.
A spark ignites in the middle of the deep.
With tale to tell,they said :
Be strong,weallmust grown .
Yetlife unvield its darkest show.
Am I to young to hide in this storm ?
Or to an insurgent,I shall transform ?
In a world sofake ,I take my stand
Under the eclipsed moon I command .
Through huricanes eyes ,I tread,

Tracing Crumbs
by Aspen M
Electric
Bolts across spine, down arms
Shocks wrists
Tingles palms
Tickles upon my neck, shivers my thighs

Amalfi Coast
by bella harrison
I had dreams of a life
not long ago,
angels meet beyond our horizon,
in this heavenly nothing where everything glows; we knew,
we know.
Lucid, morose, palm trees,
no way home. Don't go,
let go, get low, won't stand too close
Unclean, more fiend, I am
your dose,
