Best Dusky Poems

Night's falling
Slow dance
And music's drifting out of doors
Under the stars the ocean roars
Whirl dip
Fragrance fest
Mellow moon

Scarlet sunset
Almost gone
And Mars can be seen above
In the season of the dove
Diamond stars
Pearl moon
Summer dance

Warm breeze
birdsong trees
A night of color and song
And the moments move slowly along
Laughter inside
Gay revelers
Dreamy...

Special treats under autumn's  sky
 Apple cider and pumpkin pie
 And turkey roasted golden brown
 Picturesque scenes all around

 Gently falling autumn leaves
 Dance on a melancholy eve
 And color my mood in russet swirls
 And paint silhouettes in dusky twirls

 Leaves crunch beneath...

Relax and solitude from the chaos
A walk by the side with soul yours
Night sneaking out from day hours
Even the dull face gives no farce

A meeting of soul after being lost
Quietness lends beautiful talks 
Life turns on such an easy walk  
Momentous time, I am...

I am an aged dusky man,
like a bottle of Bordeaux wine,
The older am I, 
The Stronger my tipsiness,
I am packed in old Jeroboam bottle;
May be in old filthy bottle,
Yet soul is fresh vigorous,
inebriating wine;  
My soul is prisoner under cork, 
Once is released, 
gravity...

On the offshore of Atlantic ocean, - On the offshore of Atlantic ocean,
Walking on the bridge of hurricane,Intensifying force of wind hit my soul.
Empty streets with no one around,Paving away the roads of silly love.
Turning skies into grey,
We both freaking near the bay,
Freezing rain drizzled...

Dusk by the curving river caught		   
me unguarded only this once:		   
		   
Wrapped around my core and spiraled		   
Upwards as I glimpsed the entwined		   
webbed crosses sifting sinking sun		   
like twinkling dewy light...

Painted with magical hues

That glistening lake

Reflecting embellished sky

Time to take a break

Waiting for  night’s veil

Chirping birds racing to perch

In my dusky dale

Yes I am dusky..
But Still I am beautiful..
Yes I am dusky..
But still I am confident and daring..
Yes usually people look upon me..
But still there are many who are proud of me..
Yes people differentiated..
But still many have seen my goodness..
Yes this attitude hurt me a lot..
But...

dark
uproot 
sunnier 
kindred oak trees 
yield

gnarl
noble
an ageless
reverent yet
large

excitement of streets
scrubbed by thundering rain - dark
tires on fragile glass

The range in its majesty gives way to open thoughts of the wild things in taming, I have eaten hard pan and dust as my regular meal to be had.

I to the constant trail beaten into the saddle just see what could not be tamed....

Dark stones........... 
Painted in dusky dark 
Deepening hues 
Deepening views 

Dusky gold 
Dusky dark 
Dusky stone.......... 
We are not alone 

Dusky stones, 
gather on the shore 
Dusky rock, 
beginning to flock 

Dark stones on a dark sea 
Flocking on the shore 
The colour night, 
is...

Dusky  lips
Silken pink flame
Flower, fondle, fulfill
Tipsy evening in the drizzling rain
Bouquets bloom...

I'm a dusky queen,

beauty surrounded 

my little soul...


Attention to my face

gained easily 

even from the strangers...


They stared at me 

with theirs 

shrunk eyes...



I wondered 

at their meaningless attention;

I'm just a dusky queen. 


Mirrors reflected 

me as the night sky...

with some white spots.


My face was like 

 stars glittering on night sky,

dusky face with white spots...


I thought I was ugly,

I stayed behind;

Mom told, "you're a dusky queen."


I hated everyone 

for their weird attention 

just on my marks...


My cries faded my 

mystery white spots...

I smiled back enthusiastically.


Mom told me 

"You lost your stars

That's your unique look..."


My white spots 

appears occasionally 

to remind my old self.


I don't cry anymore 

cause, just few white spots,

can't stop my growth.


I'm dusky queen

I'm always beautiful 

In the way I am....
