My Butterfly

 A perfumed breeze with summer lavender 

Shapeless smoked clouds had come and gone 

Through verdant valleys I strolled along 

Honeycombed hues warmed the new dawn 

A golden butterfly glided in the distance 

I just stood still and watched his flight 

From one flower to another 

 His flapped wings fluttered 

I could not let him out of my sight 

I wondered 'bout this blissful beauty. 

 Towards the riverbank

I watched him roam 

If I could only fly away with him

to destinations always unknown

 Imagine what places he has been

what many glories he has seen

A perfect waterfall tumbling

into a clear blue pond

Wet dewdrops glimmering 'pon the grass

as the sleepy sun starts to rise

A doe with her fawn

taking those fragile first steps

 bees buzzing by

swarming back to their hive

I watched in amazement

in awe of his grace

I floated along

as he flittered away

 We hovered together through

a path between twin lakes

 then and there I kissed him

before he silently slipped away

That's the last time I saw him

cuz now stone towers have been built

Nature's been destroyed and

the butterflies have been laid to rest

Looking Down My Street - a Collaboration

Looking down my tree lined street

the setting sun casts her glow

upon the Chestnuts, Maples, and Oaks

dressed in worn out yellow ribbons 

telling the story of friendship and loss

strength and courage.

How there was hope and there were dreams.

That life wouldn't pull us apart.

There was community and passion

and smiles each time you went through that revolving door.

We prayed, yes we prayed for us that we wouldn't lose you

that we wouldn't be missing someone so true.

I raise my head up to the skies

washing away a lingering tearful cry

and remember ....

  Your amiable soul, dynamic, invincible and unique 

Your stupendous  dose of humor, indulging, infectious and unstoppable. 

Your enthusiasm to give, to share, and your boundless care 

Your friendship, a treasure trove of trust worth. 

Wherever you were, there was harmony, and a breath of fresh air 

You were a friend, who never postponed one minute of life
 
You used every minute to fill ours with joy 

I raise my head high and remember 

i remember the moment my laughter died 

that moment when I asked why 

Why are the good, the chosen ones, to suffer for others 'evil 

Why do they go first, why do they die young 

Why are they now far, so far ? 

In that moment of helplessness and doubt 

In that moment when faith was provoked 

I cried like a child, I didn t need another hero,

 I just wanted my friend back 

I wanted him so bad to be near, to survive 

Once again I raised my head,

 I got lost in the sky, 

And I swear I saw him with these eyes 

And I swear, I heard him with these ears 

He said, 'Death is not for the living, I am so much alive ' 

Then, it was night !

 I raised up my head, and a luminous star lit

my once darkened sky with warm breezing light.

Thank You

Another beautiful day has come to a close
 
 putting on my royal blue silken pajamas
 
I call to my sweet one
 
come take hold of my outstretched hand.
 
We bow our heads and thank Him.
 
Lord thank you for another terrific day
 
for allowing the sun to rise up and shine 
 
thank you for warm gentle breezes
 
that allowed us to fly our kites
 
bringing so many bubbly smiles on our children
 
Thank you dear Lord for the flowing stream
 
and the wildflowers we saw along the way
 
in our hunt for frogs and turtles.
 
Thank you Lord for the food that we ate
 
and the air that we breathed.
 
 It was such an exhilarating day.
 
Thank you Lord for all the joy you bring
 
the song of love you allow me to sing
 
Thank you for bringing into my life
 
a most beautiful soul,
 
 for gorgeous and happy children,
 
and for making our lives whole

So much to be grateful for dear Lord 

but none of my humble words 

are ever enough to praise you. 

Dear Lord 

It's my time to beg now 

So dont go away just yet 

I beg you for forgiveness 

for any harm I might have caused 

to my sister, or my brother 

to my working colleagues or any other 

I beg forgivness for all the times 

 I choose the pleasure of darkness 

over what is really the bright side of life. 

Dear Lord, make men better husbands 

and make me a good wife. 

Dear Lord I beg you

  let not envy, power, success nor selfishness 

steal the purpose of my living
 
and of what is right. 

Make me a better person Lord

Help me choose You as my guide 

Let me be a faitful being 

to those who are in burden 

Help me to do little things everyday 

little things that make a difference 

to those i love, and those who pass my way 

Let me be a lending ear
 
Let my smile relieve some pain 

Let me be at least one colour of the rainbow 

in their loneliness, in tearful rain 

Dear lord may those I meet in every street 

recognize I am Your own, not from my words 

but from my kindred deeds 

Last but not least, fill my heart with blissful grace 

as I share this serene night 

with the one you chose for me 

the one who has the most angelic face.

Together Lord we thank you

I Wondered

Last night I lay in the darkness of my room 
like i always do 
Me, a dim lamplight and thoughts of you 
my only companions 

Everything was still 
Till I could listen to first pit pattering of raindrops 
Upon my. Windowsill 
Falling, falling gently 
down my amber rose leaves garden.
Falling gently ,wildly, gushing , drumming, 
Like your heart beat on those scented nights 
in the hallway by the fireplace, face to face 

I wondered if water shadows were there too 
In a distant land, in another path and in a different time 
I wondered if you think of me too,over a cup of tea
whilst reading your newspaper,
or just sitting in your porch..I wondered.. 

Last night I sat, staring off into space.
My newspaper not opened.
My lemon tea gone cold.
Everything so still,
until the rain started to fall,
dripping slowly, rhythmically, then faster, faster,
harder, harder, quicker, quicker
splattering onto the broken concrete sidewalk
pounding like the beat of my heart
when we cuddled under the moonlit sky.

I wondered do you ever think of me
does the moon bring back memories
do you lie awake at night in your room
dreaming of me....I wondered..

One Lazy Afternoon

It was one lazy afternoon
 
laying in the hammock
 
under the azure sky
 
sheltered from the blistering sun
 
by the canopy of the old oak tree
 
chru   chru   chru
 
 warbles from the Bluebird
 
can be heard
 
as she calls for her mate

Closing my eyes 

I soar, I soar so high

  above the tallest branch

floating free

gliding in the wind

travelling towards the perfumed breezes of pansy fields

 watching their velveteen petals sway

 like her hips when she dances in the stream

   watching their alluring moves

  attracting the pollinator

 with seducing aromas

 Almost tasting the sweetened nectar 

 soft and smooth like her honeycombed hair

 pleasing like her sun-kissed skin

 which keeps taunting my dreams

 with ephimeral wishes

 of untamed adventures

 with her.

The Portrait

He cloaked her skin 

with a dark silk gown 

made of tattered wings 

neath the hunter' skies 

He covered her hair 

with a mourning veil 

Upon her face 

his hands did play 

Mysteriously 

the vacant gaze 

the secret pains 

His brush did paint 

the monaliza's eyes 

upon her lips 

he carved a smile 

with no expressions 

nor expectations 

of what one is to behold 

Enigmatic, Suffocating 

Secret whispers still untold 

Ghostly mist will keep on lingering 

in the silence of her soul 

There she stares 

from the old portrait 

Would somebody let her go? 



He stares

He ponders

Was this the girl who entered his dream?

Did he paint her pain?

Was she the same?

Lush lips that couldn't smile

Sullen eyes that couldn't lie

telling of strife

unable to bloom

sheltered from the light

Futures slowed

Hopes dashed

Dreams crushed

Was he to save her?

Thoughts echoed in his mind

Is he her savior?

Her mystery?

Her hero?

Will he fly to her side?

Will he be her star that shines?

Listen closely 

the portrait calls

save me, come save me

As We Dance

In the sky less stars tonight 

But who needs shards of light 

when the sparkle in your heart 

ignites fire in the alley of my mind.

I close my eyes, just to feel me 

swinging in your arms 

I trust to fall 

knowing you will hug me tightly 

as we dance 


Under a sky void of light,

my sweet Psyche, my soul

I keep your world upright.

The darkness now bright,

truth streaming from deep 

behind those wonton eyes.

My heart has been ignited

by the comfort of your mind 

as we dance

Hey Stranger

I wonder what you'd say 
If I met you today 
in another time 
in a better place. 
Somehow,Somewhere 
Would you recall my name?
Would you recognize this face? 
Would you recognize my smile? 
The same smile which 
knows the color of your eyes.

Hey stranger 
would you pass me by 
with no turning back 
or will you look my way? 
Will snapshots reverbrate 
that once upon an autumn day? 

If I met you today
in a different time
in some better place
eventhough your name might be different
that face slightly changed
Somehow, Someway 
I would know it was you.

That cute little smile
when you look in my eyes
That glow on your cheek
The moment we speak
The sparkle within
 displaying your deep loving soul
The beat of your heart
needing to make me whole


Hey stranger 
would you pass me by 
with no turning back 
or will you look my way? 
Will snapshots reverbrate 
that once upon an autumn day? 

Not a chance on our life
would i pass you on by
I would grab hold your hand
and make you my wife.

Remember

Remember that time
Oh that smile
that beautiful smile
that little playful smirk
tugging at my shirt
waiting for me to ask you to dance
That little blue skirt
Cashmere sweater
Your cheeks, bright red rouge 
batting your long silk eyelashes at me
You were a flirt

Remember that time
My hands so clammy
My heart a flutter
Finally asking you to dance
You took my hand
Squeezing so tight
Oh you were the perfect sight


How can I not remember 
or can I ever forget 
that midnight blue polo shirt 
and that baseball hat 
It seems not long ago 
I wore flowers in my hair 
Ahh, that lavender breeze 
Close by, a carousel 
You raised your brow many a time 
I swear I caught you stare 
It seems not long ago 
but it's been thirty years or so 
when your steady hand 
got hold of my own 
And i never let it go 
I can still recall that winsome grin 
and butterflies churning within 
You asked me if I wanted to dance 
Stole my heart away 
and put me in a trance 
It seems not long ago 
but its been thirty years or so 
Your tremerous  hand got hold of my own 
and I never let it go, no i never let it go

Rainfall

Hiding alone in the shadows

guarded, trusting no one

silently watching, waiting

Is life worth living?

Can anyone save him?

His vision clouded, blurred

The sunless skies have him confused

Rainfall begins

a drenching and soaking rain

pours down

flooding the autumn bonfires 

Which blazed in once upon a time 

with ardent passion 

in the dense forest 

of happily ever afters
