Youth Poems
The Old Man In The Chair
by Leo Warne
That old man in the chair
with the still, spotted hands
hunched over on his porch
and gazing into nowhere.
His youth has ran,
on the ground he lands.
No one seems to care,
and onto them, his dead eyes stare.

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,

How Sad True Sadness
by Carl Halling
There was a sadness I revered,
But never possessed,
Because there was youth
And opportunity to spare,
But as life ebbs,
And opportunities recede,
I know that sadness for real,
And how sad true sadness feels.
Awakenings
by Evelyn Judy Buehler
Cool overnight rains, bear a fresh burst of spring,
Peach and pink hues grace gardens, youthful playing!
Pale lemony sunshine, at warmth's golden beginning,
And everywhere you roam, there's a novel happening.
Pink butterflies in circles, a bronzed loop de loop,
And masses of cherry blossoms, preceding red fruit.
The grass so green, pearl dewdrops gone one by one,
Like the shadows that flee, in feverish awe of the sun!
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,

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

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