Poem
* For His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum * oh, how I have dreamed of you - sultry mistress to the sun's ire … dappled and coy amid the palms your eyes of the gloaming vault shimmering with the Milky Way Luna, red as rouge on your cheek dune drifts, your wavy gold tresses a flawless gem sparkling in the sand cut and polished with care and perfection to sunder the sunlight into rainbows to focus the best energies and acumen and seed a rare oasis bloom, exquisite oh proud jumeirah, jadhab and mutheer ... soon and sure, we shall woo each other you, Princess of the Arabian Desert me, The Fool for your fevered wiles oh, how you've tempted from afar … your lush and lavish loins of excess arms of extravagance beckoning me decadent, seductive voice whispering a warm and endless summer night … take good care this, my aged heard the soft echos of its dire drumming have yet returned from the firmament its final pulses not now abounding ... but the rhythm it hereafter composes is gladly sacrificed for your admiration offered up on the breathy desert winds to the sweet celebration song of YOU the aria of my tawny, torrid temptress ... DUBAI ... ~ 2nd Place ~ in the "Foreign Travel" Poetry Contest, Thvia Shetley, Sponsor. ~ 1st Place ~ in the "Landscapes Poetry Contest", Kim Rodrigues, Sponsor. ~ 6th Place ~ in the "Exotic Poetry Contest", Debbie Guzzi, Sponsor.
