Arising Sun
Horizon becomes lighter.
Sunrise becomes brighter.
Sky becomes paler.
Clouds become whiter.

MATTER ARISING
Do you ever
Do to yourself
What you've done to others
So you know the pains
That comes with it
It's so crazy
Very lazy acting without thinking.
I just hope
You get
What you
Wish on another
Not preaching
Ain't a pastor
But a God son
God save us
From what we don't know
Bless us
With what we've never own.

Dark Cloud Arising
Dark cloud arising/
Take me to the place of the dead/
Tell me your secrets/
Show me your ways/
May I know you/
In the morning light/
As I know you/
In the darkness cold/
Let me feel your sweet embrace/
As I caress the darkness/
Take me with you/
As the journey unfolds/
For I am your twin/
Dark cloud arising/
Lead me into the night/
That I may

The Crimson Sunset Arising Over The Wind-Swept Moor
No harmful or irksome thoughts
stir this mind to absolute madness,
and away from annoying, frequent sounds:
only peacefulness soothes irritated senses;
I may fall asleep and dream
in a state of false reality,
letting the fanciest fantasy
enter the bloodstream!
The crimson sunset arising over the wind-swept moor
alleviates the mood of daily woes such as this murmur;
the torrid

Storms arising
Pitter patter, patter pitter,
sings the rain upon the roof.
In attic room I hear its call,
I hear its dreary water fall.
Rumble grumble, grumble rumble,
crackles, crumbles, in my eardrums.
Fee-fie-fos revoke my sleep,
and ravage what thy labor reaped.
Sizzle sazzle, sazzle sizzle,
bolts light up the deadbeat sky.
Grey clouds linger, solemn, aching -
crying rivers, peace forsaking.
Then still the air, the

Arising With Dawn
There was something
about the wee hours that inspired him,
There was something
about the tenderness of the day that invigorated him,
The silence buoyed him to a new world,
The ambience brightened his chamber,
The elements that called him from slumber
signalled the time to go on an idyllic stroll,
The hidden was revealed,
He saw through the fog,
A

Scarlet Arising
Hot sun
a stirring
in scarlet hours.
Sleeping beauty rises
Red rose.
Fragrance
drifts afar
on unseen wings.
Under the golden spell
She is.

Arising At the Dawning
Arising at the dawning of the newborn day,
When morning sun shines brightly in the east.
Begin your day with humble gratitude and pray,
Arising at the dawning of the newborn day
That hate and bigotry will forever go away,
That love for family and friends will be increased.
Arising at the dawning of the newborn day,
When morning sun shines brightly

And With Wings To Fly
Cry, cry upon the night, for tense is the day.
The sullen sky exists, as if no other.
The blackbird eyes all those, who dare walk the streets.
This world of man turns, oblivious and still.
For a moment I see, through the eyes of birds.
That I might see the truth, and with wings to fly!

Arising With Bliss
Yearning for serenity of clemency
my restless heart breathed out despair sigh
due to iniquity-virus I couldn’t deny…
…I did long for pardon's healing efficacy.
Midst lurking skepticism of haughty pretense
my mind wrestled against unbelief bout
instilling confusion-angst and sure doubt...
… I then cried for truth's wondrous omnipotence.
With my soul gripped with worldliness' vanity
drifting along sin-damnation flow
sinking in depravity’s

Arising
on the edges
of my mind
you rise
blushed in thoughts
like eastern skies
your breath
whispers in sighs
against flesh
like this wind
suddenly
january's air
seems less
bitter
