and we looked on sadly
through a frost covered pane
as our snowmen began to thaw
So many memories
of so many times
that still cause a tear to fall
from childhood to man
… now memory
I hold onto all
that I can
recall

I #assure you: water's freezing point is #regaled in #pretty poetry, whereas ice's melt is cursed in the #final_submissions of boots' muddy muck.
Two states of matter:
molecules #crossing_borders
without boundaries.
There was a young lady called Lorraine
Who regaled with stories about Spain
She felt quite a breeze
When she stooped to her knees
Because she left her thong on the plane

I am at peace amidst the trees
#regaled presence comforts me
Spring's rebirth our welcomed bloom
Mother Nature's fertile womb
I write my best sat waterside
sodden earth #assures rising tide
a mermaid me my muse it be
tis where my #soul resides

He #regaled me
with his tales
so clever and
entertaining
My sides hurt
with laughing
a perfect storyteller
a raconteur
no detail is missed
the heroes speak
for themselves
he is only a messenger
not the puppetmaster
and his joy in words
is lovely to see

HOW TO BRAINWASH YOURSELF I'm pounding the roof of hell with hands that once held the flesh of an absurdist god. My phone assures me this is the only correct thing to do right now while also ordering me to give my life to a satellite, to make myself ill so I can feel the elation of health if I survive. I'm endlessly regaled by the uselessness of old pictures that are scattered across my Facebook page as if they were ashes from the last cigarette I ever smoked. I like to think I'm better now despite how my eyes are drowning in my mind's clueless urges; I know they'll reach for air someday.
I think I really like this one! It was very cathartic to write.

From The Vault - Male and female house finches perched on a wire fence, the male with red head lowered while the female looks toward him against a dark green blurred background.
regaled by his song?
maybe, till she remembers
he is a cheater!

such clever twists
of word and limb
that cast a spell
on Caesar's morn
gone now from mind
the fevered dream
from wizened lips
that spoke of doom

still working on this one, may try again. it's meant to be choppier than i usually write but i'm not sure how well that works.
Unscrupulously regaling
with all manner of excuses
where he was
what he was doing
shrugs of his shoulder
wry smiles
shaking his head
but the truth
she felt deep in her heart
#emoetry #regaled
Delighting young and
Old, as he regaled us all
With saucy banter.

He #regaled us with his tales
as the snow fell outside
the fire crackled in the hearth
as we all sat in utter delight
at the tales he spun
to entertain us all.

Well #regaled, but Beware the goal!
ghoul does not rhyme with #soul
it will #corrupt it though
bend to the #ground
like a dying bough
the #mirror cannot #protect
only your eyes can reflect
your inner truth - be bold
stand firm in your beliefs

The camera unveiled the ring
Behind the cellar door
These burglars #regaled the sting
Arrayed beneath the floor
A jump
A thump
A bang
So hurriedly my captured heart
Withdrawn from crooked ways
Expelled at once the raptured part
Prepared for better days

Our pact seems to have failed
To redact when Helen regaled
A fact: that all beauty paled
In exact comparison availed
With no tact, words sailed
To Olympus intact; Aphrodite wailed
So wracked, & feeling assailed
She exacted revenge, yet Ares prevailed
Or so goes the tale...
Regaled (2/2 emoetry) A girl grew obstinately older, Lavishly locked in holiday halls, gaudily gilded but barely broader Than the dancing dirt of neighboring neanderthals. Claustrophobically curious, she slipped away To the festive field the commoners celebrate. Immediately immersed sans doom or dismay She sought pagan priests and watched men mutate. The tired turned excessively ecstatic, Cautious chastity soon shed with a sigh. Raucously regaled with tales thematic and tragic, While witnessing the languished lie as lovers, hearing horses clomp and cry. Though included she intuited she had intruded. Expediant exit, heading home to royally recover, As her voyeuristic voyage covertly concluded.
The tide is out at yet another wild West Coast beach here in NZ. I didn't have this one labelled so I believe it's Anawhata Beach. So many beaches, so little time (and proper photo organisation LOL). The clouds are scattered in the sky. Hints of blue peep through the cloud deck. With the low tide, larger clumps of rock formations on the darker sands are exposed. In the distance, the sloping hills of the Waitakere Ranges can be seen as they meet and melt into the Tasman Sea. They are covered with a dense green duvet of natural trees and shrubs. ...and my heart found peace and healing this day...

Acrostic: Rise above the noise, Exercise your quiet will. Govern only self, Act with practiced skill. Let the chaos drift, Embrace the task at hand, Done with simple grace.

To be regaled is not to be praised, but to rule oneself with grace.

He couldn't be found
an #odd #revelation
he sees in the #mirror
a once #regaled sensation
Father Time's #corrupt he gives a peek
then grabs it back a cruel streak
#protect ur #soul
or #perish it will
I check in on mine still

Footsteps The Ink black hours Ticks and creaks Regale my imagination With a monologue of dread The single digit dark Where my fear still forgets That I am not afraid The heater kicks on Making my skin jump Dry winter wood Cracking with complaints Mimicking sounds of Footsteps The entombed specters Of my youth dance forth I won't give them the satisfaction Of turning on the light.

I tell my kids there is nothing in the dark that isn't there in the light, so don't be afraid. That's just facts. Kids, heh.

I've been a king and lord
A monarch of the glen
Regal in power among men
It's a good feeling to be king
I hope you feel it too
The calm assurance
The calm movement
Of the lord
It's in every single one of us
It's in you too
Nowadays I like
A beer, a laugh, music
And to be regaled
grampa was known in town
by just about everyone
he liked to have coffee
with his VFW pals on Fridays
they talked about fishing and
with a cheeky smile & twinkling eyes
regaled them with tall tales
