Lewis Dowell, III

Lemons and Limes
Lemons and Limes
The more I see lemons
The more I like limes
...

Graceful swimming sounds
Lovely is the visions
I have dwelled on thee,
Goddess of the earth and skies
...

It's winter time,
I've nestled up snuggly
Under the burnished sky
Collecting thoughts of new poems
...

Those harbingers of darkness,
Whose primal hands
Seek to take down
Walkers of the burning sands-
...

Hi. What?
Oh you.
Yeah.
It's been a while.
...

Raging rags dipped in oil
Filthy to the core,
Rich the pool collected in
It opens up the door.
...

Niki Loiu Purmn
Yaksel i feathers qualms
Of Birds of paradise
Rising tides tittles of ripe bananas
...

Celestial conferences of minced words
Incorrectly bespoken in paradise,
But hushed within the symmetry
Of that which was and was not;
...

Sweet rapturous soul
In benighted times
I've swoon to move
To that sacred place
...

Warring powers, winter's eve
Mega visions taking leave,
Horror nights, steady hands
Wasteful demons, barren lands,
...

(@@) 6 strings on the heart
& like a solemn solioquy
<> 1 snare for the tarts
bending to the beat
...

The times like daffodils befall from the heights
Moving swiftly towards paradise-
Thou art the mid-drift swing
Which brings the ebb and flow of the night-
...

Rain was best.
When fallen below the waves,
Ocean breezes would mix
-Then mingle
...

Breezes from some delphic diva
Crossing beyond, anon some Brahmian bar,
Transient verses, terse at best,
Bellowing sounds across the shores once blessed,
...

O' In'e
W'out the dream
Fires unpronounced-
O' In'e
...

Oh yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah yeah, yeah,
Yeah yeah.
La la la la la laaa
...

In dem times
Der were crawlin' fountains
And bol' runners
Who moved in de grooves
...

Writers, poets swing from chandeliers
Happy in the bliss of unlived fear
The quest of Poseidon once found
-Relief.
...

Et moi?
I'll reside by the Tigris river
Where the water flows just pass my knees
I'll let the cool breeze lift the sweat from my skin,
...

C'la mua betra dia
Yuo pta nioala me'
Tubla gras sei ta lai
Asni tua teta gi
...
