Premium Member Day My Lifelong Friend Ii
Day, my lifelong friend,
Thousands of times we have said good morning to each other and
As many times we have said goodnight.
You have wakened me up with the caresses of the sun’s rays and  
You have put me to sleep with the lullabies of sunset’s...

Premium Member Swimming Upstream
My soul has left the serene ocean of the eternal

And like a salmon swims upstream

The river's turbulent waters of the temporal,

Determent to overcome any obstacles found

For its destiny to fulfill!

Book: Radiant Verses: A Journey Through Inspiring Poetry



The Apple of My Eye
Smooth, effervescent glowing skin
Free of blemish and blighting toxin
Undulating curves of glossy satin
Red cloak shrouds comely Saracen

At the core a being of fibrous substance
From stem to sternum burgeoning affluence
Delicately woven fabric with scintillating elegance
At close quarters emanating a sweet fragrance.

A free-flowing stem signaled detachment
A stalky...

Bad Stars
Poets speak of them as folly, of love itself, 
they say, “Stars are the windows of Heaven” 

in their ignorance they cannot see 
that stars are the fireflies of Hell. 

Stars shine from distant dark with the illusion 
of emotion, yet are indifferent to pity....

OUR TRACED PATH*


My fellow men,
Travelers are we 
On life’s journey well planned in advance  
Without our consent,
Let us 
Obediently follow our traced path
Resisting not our fate    
For
Easier this trip to make!

First Blood
Love can make you happy
Love can be also cruel
Love can be so wicked
And make you feel like a fool

Love can look so tasty
Like chicken and rice
Then make you scratch your head
Like if you have lice

Love can put you in the mood
For some rum and coke...

Unique
I call her on the telephone
 She didn’t pick up the call
 Been studying all night 
 Fell asleep didn’t hear it at all
 
 She been working very hard
 Wants to make her mother proud
 She’s just like an angel
 That comes from above...

Premium Member The Privilege V
I started the day
The way, thousands of days I have 
Started before.

The sun had barely risen above the horizon,
It seemed to hesitate for a while, then climbed higher,
Determent was to chase away the remaining 
Shadows of the night!

I stood there in silence,
Observing and admiring this...
