] Date Posted: 20:37:16 01/10/08 Thu  The Staff of the Muse Mongers Motel proudly announces its first Poet of the Month Award Congratulations Mireille We are honored and grateful to have you as a cherished member of the Muse Monger Community. Mirelle, is a resident of France who writes in both French and English. Her Poetry expands upon the page. The value of her essence at the Motel shines brightly on us all. She is also the owner/administrator of her own wonderful poetry site. You can visit her there by clicking the banner for "New Horizons" which is currently our featured site displayed in the lobby. Feel free to post a message here congratulating her if you so wish Three Poems by "Mireille" The Muse Mongers Motel Poet of the Month for November, 2007  Crow Bar Me, me, now chaps ! Shouted that long beak one D'ya know the is one 'bout a guy A life spent to collect and hide Zealous jealous of someone else could see So he digs big holes in his basement floor T's like a mine field now Thought a fox helps him for years Carving galleries too far in forest And moving out one piece after another Spreading them at the four winds ! He ! He ! He ! Hear them, hear the entire Crow Bar All ravens laughing loud They, birds of bad omen They know where we're weak !! Hey Fella! ya heard that ? Wandered 'round a big black one. I'm tellin' ya'll 'bout that human Who says he's kinda king Me thought's he's kinda blind From his 50th floor He trusts he rules the world Though since he's at this top Every time he comes in or goes out His comfortable iron/glass tower A pigeon sends him a package. At the bar, crows laughed so loud Guess what happened ! J'ai vu J'ai vu Dans le tonnerre et l'éclair Partir les camarades d'école Effacés comme la craie sur le tableau Gommés de sur les bancs de la classe Emportés dans la furie d'acier Qui a passé sans les voir. J'ai vu Le feu tomber du ciel Sur les champs de blé Et dans les yeux affamés Des frères et des soeurs Des pères, des mères et des aieux Dépérir la flamme de vie. J'ai vu Tout un village partir en fumée Et les femmes, et les enfants, Les hommes, les jeunes et les vieux, Et les chiens, les poules et les vaches, Tout n'être plus que cendres A l'heure où la rosée est née. J'ai vu Les Hommes aimer les Hommes. I have seen I have seen In the thunder and the lightning Schoolmates departing Canceled like chalk on the blackboard Erased from on the benches of the classroom Took away in the iron fury That has passed by without seing them. I have seen Fire falling from the sky On the wheat fields And in the brothers and sisters And fathers, mothers and elders' Starving eyes Dying the flame of life. I have seen Whole a village gone in smoke And the women, and the children, The men, young and old, And the dogs, chicken and cows, All to be but ashes At the hour when dew's born. I've seen Humanship loving Humankind. Nest of Songs Last Song How this story should end ? Who among us will say The word, the last Whom from us will cry The river, the last ? When the tale will switch Into "Today Headlines" ? Will it even happen, The wrong, the last, Will we even speak it The adieu, the last ? I don't expect an end. Do you ? Lest Song They are there in the cradle of my heart Soflty lulled at this tender pace I keep only, I keep just for you. I nested them preciously into silk dreams I stretched to hold you and them I save only, I save just for you. These words, the lest I may speak For the lest I should express To tal all that, all who you are To me, For the lest, I love you. List Song One cup of warm hands Two bowls of nocturnal sweat Five pounds of spice my mornings up Ten gallions of liquid ecstazy And... And counts are meaningless There's no limit no disclosure To the amounts of my intentions On your concern And whatever rhymes with I need you, I love you, I want You And any additional ingredients To keep your love awake And... Overall You and I, in love. Lost Song In your mutisme In your absence And in my blindness I feel one way, I feel lost. All the daily "nothing" And the shut windows Sing to me the old same old chorus "Somewhere, in the middle of the Ocean The bottle has lost its message." And I feel one way, I feel lost. On the darkness board I draw your smile In the silence speaker I echo your laugh And then my world's sleeping I feel one way, I feel lost. Lust Song Sitting there I know I will If I close my eyes And I feel I'm slow falling It's always to land Into the compass of your arms You close all around my curves map. In this dreamland I recreate Each and every time your unreal presence Rushes into my loneliness I swear I can touch you A skin-quake shakes us all inside out And I can sip the honey of your sweat I push you into the flames I lit in our bed. And we dance the Merry-go-lus Until the taste of ashes Reveals me staring at a black screen. [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] |
