Deepest yearning,
Ever out of range,
Souls still burning,
Itching to change,
Reaching, denied embrace,
Every time, I see your face.

Fawning for favour,
Opulent in ignorance,
Oozing foul flavours,
Listless, the puppets dance,
Simpering sycophants.
#AcrosticApril #Fools #acrosticpoem #writing #writingcommunity
@daveashleypoet.bsky.social
Rummaging in bins,
A born survivor thriving,
They make great chefs too.
#vssdaily #rat #acrosticpoem #haiku #senryu #poem #writing #writingcommunity
Icy mornings, hot coffee,
Laughter on a sunny day,
Impish impulses, being free,
Kisses, hugs, chicken dishes,
Evening dreams, granted wishes.

Sunshine and showers,
Petrichor's promise,
Relinquished hours,
Intricate blossoms,
New cycles begin again,
Green returns with a grin.

C ultivated soil yields richness
O leaginous beans mature slowly
C asks cradle fragrant bounty
O dor pervades, darkly intoxicating
A rtisans temper bitter essence

Venomous lips,
A paralysing kiss,
Malicious drips,
Purging in bliss,
Intimately emptied,
Red runs in plenty,
Ensanguinated hiss.
#FreeVerseFebruary #Vampire #acrosticpoem #writing #writingcommunity

Dripping fangs,
Rendering claws,
Airborne, hangs,
Gore-flecked maw,
Oppressive descent,
Never a dull moment.

Glowing sunsets,
Opulent rays,
Lacquered regrets,
Distilled haze,
Emblems forgotten,
Naturally rotten.
Cooling down,
All is well,
Let me drown,
Midnight swells.
#AcrosticJanuary #Calm #Golden #acrosticpoem #writing #writingcommunity

Furious blaze,
Light, little licks,
Ashen haze,
Muzzled by bricks,
Embers after all.
#AcrosticJanuary #Flame #acrosticpoem #writing #writingcommunity
@daveashleypoet.bsky.social
Devilish glint,
Eyes flash red,
Maleficent,
Oblong head,
Needing a new host body.
#AcrosticJanuary #Demon #acrosticpoem #writing #writingcommunity
@daveashleypoet.bsky.social
Sky, a deathly grey,
Thunder bird roars,
Orbital flash delay,
Ripped clouds at war,
Muted what I had to say.
#AcrosticJanuary #Storm #acrosticpoem #writing #writingcommunity
@daveashleypoet.bsky.social
Bulging beneath the skin,
Our skeletal cages,
Narrow, the marrow within,
Evolved over ages,
Smiling inside, always.
#AcrosticJanuary #Bones #acrosticpoem #writing #writingcommunity
@daveashleypoet.bsky.social
Summoning storms,
Preparing my wards,
Enigmatic forms,
Lightly plucked chords,
Levitating worms.
#AcrosticJanuary #Spell #acrosticpoem #writing #writingcommunity
@daveashleypoet.bsky.social
Repugnant to touch,
Odious odours emerge,
Tired state of decay.
#WildWalkPrompt #Rot #acrosticpoem #haiku #senryu #poem #writing #writingcommunity
@sonnetsmith.bsky.social
Tender tributes,
Heartily felt,
A toast from the roots,
Naturally knelt,
Kindness on display,
So what else can I say?
#AcrosticJanuary #Thanks #acrosticpoem #writing #writingcommunity
@daveashleypoet.bsky.social
Your sweet gestures of devotion
Ease my worries of wandering eyes
As no lying man could be quite as
Reverent as you are.
No lying man would bow before the
Inferior gender that society
Notes women to be.
Gentle love has secured you my heart.

Careful now
Old fuels linger on
Against all warnings
Learned nothing

Cold remembers
Our first fires,
Alive with embers,
Long burning desires.
#AcrosticJanuary #Coal #acrosticpoem #writing #writingcommunity
@daveashleypoet.bsky.social
Searing blaze,
Corrosive smoke,
Oppressive haze,
Retching choke,
Charred devastation,
Heat without cessation.
#AcrosticJanuary #Scorch #acrosticpoem #writing #writingcommunity
@daveashleypoet.bsky.social
Generously endowed,
Rich in spectacle,
Applause from the crowd,
Novel, respectable,
Dutifully beautiful.
#AcrosticJanuary #Grand #acrosticpoem #writing #writingcommunity

Resplendent in red,
Offering of romance,
Spiky thorns of dread,
Evocative at a glance.
#AcrosticJanuary #Rose #acrosticpoem #writing #writingcommunity
@daveashleypoet.bsky.social
Faces left behind,
Remembering names,
Intimate in kind,
Embers of flames,
Nostalgic wishes,
Dancing swishes,
Supersoaker drinking games.

In a
New York minute,
So much
Tragedy,
Abruptly interrupted,
Now the
Tables turn with thee.

Tempo harmonic,
Ravers roar in glee,
A boom of sonic,
Nirvana's humming plea,
Chilled waves vibrate,
Ecstasy is never too late.

Pastel shades,
Acrylic pops,
Inky parades,
Nuanced slop,
Timeless faces,
Iconic places,
Notable pieces,
Garish friezes.

Diva at heart,
Ready to perform,
Acting a part,
Model of form,
Always on stage,
Tap dancing twinkle toes,
Inspired by the age,
Charismatic, oh, he knows.
#AcrosticJanuary #Dramatic #acrosticpoem #writing #writingcommunity

Fatally slippy,
Rimed, the roads,
Overcoats on,
Shimmying toads,
Tentative steps,
Yule's tide explodes.
#AcrosticJanuary #Frosty #acrosticpoem #writing #writingcommunity
@daveashleypoet.bsky.social
Tentative game, cat
And mouse, curiosity
Glints in feline eyes.
