Mama….it’s today
The chalendar shouts it
Today
15 years ago..you breathed your last
and I still see you in dreams
and I still miss you, Mama

I’m sitting here
in front of the screen 
wondering….what it would be like
to see your smile again
wondering if you’d be proud of my work
I write, Mama
I...

Premium Member The Dew Diaries
I was a world famous fashion designer, and quite enraptured with the new,
Like first caress of pink, peach dawn light, smiling at the full moon's taboo.

I adored laboring with colors I loved, in my fashions, often bold and daring,
Like shocking, darkly purple blooms, a modish...

The Worm Poem Sequel
She was in love 
Their expression of it 
Was the perfection of it 
The way they shared 
What they had 
Was beyond compare
Today is the next step
Towards their future
Today they bought a house 
Overwhelmed 
Overjoyed
Her heart sings 
Then the phone rings 

At the hospital 
Next...

Premium Member Law of Nature
Earth around me felt the lightning
Trees trembled, their new leaves bravely hanging on

Wildflowers, innocence awaked in beauty
Shined their light in gratitide

Ground mice, dodging the strike
Sought warmth in familiar covens

My hand, my own hand, part of the earth
Stroked the grasses within reach

The air filled my nostrils...

Premium Member That Witch
In a damp, dark cave
With her twisted evil laugh
She has help from all her slaves
As She practices her craft

She takes an eye of newt
Purees it with a frog
Throws in, a leather boot
And a few hairs from a dog

She speaks an incantation
And I'm awaked from the...

My Heart Pounds, My Heart Loves, My Heart Shakes
My heart pounds, my heart loves, my heart shakes

When love slept, **May 25th my love awaked

“I love you” could be said in a hundred ways

But me showing you could last a thousand days

If actions speak louder than words

Then the genius of our love is a...

Mama….it’s today
The chalendar shouts it
Today
13 years ago..you breathed your last
And I still see you in dreams
And I still miss you, Mama

I’m sitting here
In front of the screen 
Wondering….what it would be like
To see your smile again
Wondering if you’d be proud of my work

Teetering Dream
Cocooned beneath warm  silky bedding 
Soundly nestled in dream’s quiet moment
Neither purged from silence nor the chatter of an awaked world
My soul engulfed- now doth begin the teetering dream

Whither I am smiling or running- tumbling or soaring
Erupts the moment of a rattling bell 
My...

Premium Member The Long Way Home
It was late in the balmy springtime, and I was attending a lecture,
On a topic of great interest, which was the history of architecture.

As a great lover of beauty, I admired structural geometric designs,
Like the tall triangular mountains, or circular grapes on the vines.

But I...

Moments Lived Into a Silver Night...
Spellbound by the shimmering moonlight by the silent lagoon,
the oldest witness to every lover's secrets in enchanted Venice,
whispering soft words, afraid of being stolen by that stranger
who could be a wanderer or an intruder...
the dry leaves, beneath the drooping pine trees,
will crackle if he attempts...

A Journey of Faith and Redemption By Er Haider Khan
The whistle blew, signalling the start of my journey,
 Aboard the train, my degree and future bright and blurry.
 3000 km to travel, 30 hours to spend,
 I settled in, ready for the adventure to begin.

I put my bags down, beneath my seat,
 Letting myself...

Smiling Summer Faces
With the onset of warm temperature
across cultures there’s a celebration;
elsewhere in the village or urban setting,
there’s fun and lovely interaction.

In the neighborhood, there’s a good vision
With green trees and beautiful flowers,
militonia orchids, lilacs and tulips,
all these are reasons to smell them.

As many shade trees like...

Premium Member Before Dawn Wakes
Before the moon gives reign to the ruling sun, I'm awaked by the crooning of a lover. Not for me does he sing, for he seeks a mate. It's those tranquil moments I treasure, when through my open my window I hear his voice. Sweet...

Nothing Is Free
I feel misplaced... 
secured inside the gates of the Law. 
Trying to justify my faults. 
Wishing desperately to be cut from my confine. 
Night falls... 
"Light's Out"
The ward cozenages the blocks...
Pulling the cells shut...
It slams with my own shame. 
Locking each one....  
It's the...

It Was Something Like a Dream
It Was Something Like A Dream 
now its all a movie scene
im crying late at night
for reasons
that couldn't be.

It Was Something Like A Dream 
cause it wasn't real yett.
I feel like superman
so put that "S" on my chest
and flying through the sky 
that would be...
