Poem
When gusty winds blow, riling my troubled dawn in gelid woes Squall of my throes dissipates in scented whiffs of budding rose. As brazen fog shrouds mind, heightening my grief, poking fun Defyingly I step out in glinting rays of the dawning golden sun. Refusing to surrender when my tears dominate indignation Joy I find on the vibrant horizon, blazing sunset’s ruby elation. Verdant paradise appeals to pleas, adorning my shamrock hills Appeasing cry of stygian echoes storming from mountains of ills. If night reigns moonless and nightmares soon rage my dreams Comfort I find within soothing zeal of spring’s giggling streams. While strife of life endures in raging summers of unending heat Readily I seek blue oceans, surfing rhythmic tides’ buoyant beat. As laments of the world drown humanity in hapless deep dive Strength of nobility rises, helping weakened hands to survive. When the rancor of disillusionment exudes ambivalent sigh Autumn’s scarlet imprints eagerly vie, healing souls in russet dye. As hindrance of the ordinary distresses progress of mankind Delighted I am to see rationality unite, to defeat the unrefined. When sullen is my heart aching in the anguish of ashen skies Solace I derive from serene vibes gleaming your tranquil eyes. At times in my life, I encounter the black-holes of opaque space Yet, the light of day gets through in sanctuary of your embrace.
