You’re the tame auspiciously lurking in the still of my nightmares, frivolously evicting the static that haunts my memories, illuminating this frantic mind if even for a second.
Crippling the narrow minded ways in which I’ve become entrapped, a one way road futile in substance and willingness to succeed
The savior of superficiality aligning the monstrosity of a broken roar, promising problems putter to the likening of a minuscule oblivion
Written: June 4th, 2024, For Andrea Dietrich

After the rain, my eyes were blithe,
Rainbow spans the sky, deft and lithe.
For a terse glance, it will remain.
My eyes were blithe . . . after the rain.
Shades of beat! crimson-cyan blue.
A quite brilliant and sparkly hue.
Incite me to yearn for this treat.
Crimson-cyan blue, shades of beat.
With charm, I stare, watching it fade.
Impressing splendor, God has made.
Auspiciously, an awe-sight rare!
Watching it fade with charm, I stare.
This stunning sight cannot grow old.
Just to grasp, it's a drill of gold.
Always an enchanting delight.
Cannot grow old this stunning sight.
Dealing with the death of my friend
As well as a long held dream
doubling down on pain Auspiciously it seems
The two for one it aint much fun however
one serves to blunt the other
the slightest bit but never ever cover
The depth of these losses without bottem
Pain till now inconceivable
To lose you both unbelievable
Reality strikes again a hammer ringing on steel
Pendulum swinging from keening pain
to survival mode unable to feal
it will get better one day I'll find
the sky is once more blue and this waterfall
replaced with smiles when I lovingly think of you
Think thrice before any action
To avoid the happening of friction
When you do the final selection
You must get perfect satisfaction
Decide not in the last minute
Do not ponderously just sit
Try to practice to keep fit
Success is sweet, get it
Dreaming will not get great glory
Inaction makes you feel sorry
Carry on work without any hurry
Never worry as it is unnecessary
Plan and execute with great skill
Extract out of duty maximum thrill
Always perform the task with will
Your coffers, efforts will surely fill
When circumstances are adverse
Then do not despise the Universe
God and prayer are there to nurse
You can rectify if things are worse
Just believe in your full capacity
This belief will act like electricity
Increase via work your capacity
Keep intact your great creativity
Exploit your potential sagaciously
Ignore comments made atrociously
Taste this life viewing it preciously
Let holy time be viewed auspiciously!
Smoky puffy clouds hovered around
Pungent waves engulfed thy existence
Plummeting gullible hopes to ground
Troubled waters obscured persistence.
Exploding, unnerving, dark remorse
Glanced for an anchor to float away
Behold the dazzling ripe inward source
Auspiciously holding thee at bay.
Hath saved all years those memories loved
Nourished thy soul and dissolved in thee
Wrapped by thy mother and beloved
Fear not, unshackle that warmth, foresee!
Love of all had been thy pious bridge
Cross over! Treasured faith holds that ridge.

Slow Burn
Who ARE you?
He approaches
the stage
auspiciously…
She gazes with awe.
Side-stepping
in time.
Flawless are
his moves.
Their eyes meet.
Time stands still--
Unbroken silence.
Earth snaps back in motion…
Her
eternal Slow Burn.

out my window
there in the distant horizon
graced by a solemn steeple
I sometimes toss my prayers
auspiciously at the sunrise hour
when serenity's most breathtaking
I feel heard somehow
though words are never spoken
the answers seem clearest
at sunrise my soul rejoices
it's a most divine hour
where in extravagance
nature's beauty
knows no bounds

I am a real Muslim woman
The one that obey the rules of my unseen God
And give total submission to the prophet teaching
To wear hijab and be free from all conundrum of life
I am a real Muslim woman
My Hijab is my piety
My viel will always be on me
I am a queen, a wife of a king I'm unique and different
I don't shake my hands with strange men
My beauty will not be cheapened with worldly things
I am disciplined humbly with my dressing
I am respectful and I'm Auspiciously
This piece of cloth that cover my body is full of tranquility
A sign of total submission to my husband
I am a real Muslim woman
And I am the sacred Gold of my husband
I am not just an ornament for your eyes
I am a phenomenal Muslim woman
The one that eat only from the hands work of her husband
Uniquely as the gold which must be mined
My hijab is my piety
My hijab is my choice and my life
The baby in her crib singing sweetly,
Soft high-pitched tones ascending from her room,
Beget smiles to all in her family.
Her gift, prized more than a precious heirloom.
Unknowingly she blessed her family.
Each morning at dawn beautiful tones rang.
She played with her toys while singing carefree.
That is when insight to grandmother sprang.
There is noise without family prayer,
It abounds with boisterous boys around.
Adults auspiciously keep order there.
But, sometimes, peace of heart cannot be found.
Quiet walking seems to never take place.
In the morning outside beauty astounds.
When day’s rushing starts the race from Earth’s grace,
This baby shows the way, sharing love’s sound.

I Remember the night we met
Austin Texas. Halloween.
Neither of us in costumes.
Falling oh so quickly, oh so foolishly
Love sprouting , flowering jubilantly
A delicate dance of
Intertwining stems, soft leaves, silken petals
Me……...dread locks , patchwork pants
You…... long brown hair, unkempt auburn beard
You had that favorite tie dyed t- shirt you
liked to wear.
We married one year later
Halloween
I remember spiraling autumn leaves
dancing auspiciously
First day of spring,
tears falling from your eyes
new baby struggling to breathe
I remember her tiny hands, her olive skin
I remember Humboldt county where the redwoods kiss the Ocean
New baby strapped to back,
ferns reaching out over our heads
I remember West Yellowstone, camping in the snow.
Canvassing at Old faithful.
How many times do we watch it blow?
Three years unfolding …...
We birthed another baby .
Sweet rosy cheeks
A ray of sunlight in our forest of unknowing
Mostly I remember you midst the ferns,
where the redwoods kiss the shore.
And that tie dyed t- shirt you liked to wear.
Owl in the dark night
Dark Owl
That's how I call
on an Owl
who loved the darkness
Almost every night
he greeted me
diligently
with his unique voice
carved a longing
in my heart
for his visit
Will you attend
tonight
I miss your gaze
in the dark night
give a spirit
to meet
dawn
auspiciously
even if
you were negligent
or forget
to visit me
i’ll hug your gaze
along my dream

I had to try this for my Mary, How did I do Honey?
I've secured my box of empty thought,
concealed it auspiciously below,
so I may attain what I have sought;
there beneath paint and attire bought;
in an impervious frigid floe,
I've secured my box of empty thought.
I dare not oppose this ailment caught;
these unsure stitches I'll again sew,
so I may attain what I have sought,
and it's done, I've shaped to what's been taught;
emptiness ensues, because, now know,
I've secured my box of empty thought.
Truth be divulged, I have never fought,
or attempted to expel my foe,
so I may attain what I have sought,
and it still creeps forth, held breath, most hot,
taunting and slipping further, but - no!
I've secured my box of empty thought
so I may attain what I have sought.

My mom the queen...!
Water splashed across the window
Struck high the thunderstorm
My fingers tapped the table
While I sat in my dorm
Watching the merciless rain
Communing to me
Taking me back to the aura of being
Telling me the real meaning of life
And as I sat dazed hearing it
Tears came up stinging my eyes
Seeing that unmatchable aspect
Paying the price for what I had left
Auspiciously I heard the howl
As the winds whispered the soothing sound
Comforting me thy still have time
To undo the done before the tears mount
Soaring up the rhythm fast
The cadence of my heart beat count
Raised high my head with determination
Heaved eminently my soul
and a smile swept across my face
Enlivening me up from the gloomy haze
As I felt the trust in God rising
The power of belief reviving.....
O God, I thank you for this supreme support
Being always there when I need you the most
May I now follow the path shown
So that your blessings never let me lone
Pursuing the bona fide essence of life
The real reason for which I am alive
