Best East Poems

When East Met West
She found a love at
 its best,
Such a love so difficult
to even express.
You had me from hello
with your tender Caress,
I knew from that moment,
 I wanted the Rest.
A Forbidden Love that was new,
So Strong,
How could one say that this
love was wrong ?
The...

A blushing moonbeam whispers softly
words your heart does long to hear
Shimmering in stardust quivers
while my arms they hold you near

Midst the chill of autumn breezes
drifting slow across the hill
Evergreens in shivered branches
rest within this night so still

Shadows dance in found desires
as your eyes reflect the...

Der Wind aus Osten
Treibt schon Schnee über das Land
Am späten Herbsttag



The wind from the east
Drifts already snow across the land
At late autumn day



El viento del este
Ya flota nieve a través de la tierra
En un día de otoño...

Come along with me as I journey East
where fragile cherry blossoms flutter
before raining down from cloudless skies.
Let's climb majestic mountains whose crests 
are always laced with crowns of snow.

Here, the scent of jasmine is caught in a breeze.
Bonsai forests hold ancient secrets of long past...

Picture 1	the message is sent

		nobody listens

Picture 2	the whirlwind roars past
                leaving in its wake havoc

(A Blank Verse Sonnet)

At fifty-two, a new career is launched
in beauty firm installed on eastern shore,
to aid all those who live with problem skin.
As sales increase, adventure swells; she wins 
awards, free  trips, new friends, and diamond rings.
With pride, she dons the pen for...

Tears from The East

Head chatterd with state law
No fair hearing because the law is 
deaf
Executioner groaning with sword
The hot sun ready to sip
Her blood oozes in the midst of 
innocency
Arrogant mob mocking her tears
Justice jugging in the jungle
She is
Killed for no just cause
Nature stood aloof
As...

Rose fingered dawn appeared early today
at the island, East Brothers Light station.
From Benicia hills I caught the first ray.
Now, absorbing my share of sun's ration
on this islet in San Francisco bay.
I early watched the night, battle, and chased
by the minions of a bright new day.
On...

Way down in East Jabib
where I told many a fib
I spoke so many lies
it should be no surprise
that I used to lie in my crib...

It's true that I was in town
When the trumpet sound
And soldiers came down
Spilling like ants on the ground:
Heralding the royal feast!
The Gods have had their seats
To celebrate the poet from the east
Whose lyrical prowess beats
The best they've ever heard.
It is heavenly inspired:
The lines of this...

Good Morning     1/2
East West North & South


Birds and flowers said, Good Morning to not yet visible Sun
The Butter flies, Black bee and the Honey bee, spread their wings,
While hovering on one flower to another and flying on buds 
Before touching flower’s...

If one is hungry
And bored
Of watching over Mecca,

What better place
To steal an apple
Than from another country’s orchards,
With fighter jets
Twanged in the sky
Like flying bottle openers,
Diving down
And peeling back a tin can roof
Of a school bus
Loaded with 40 children,
Whose shoulders are all
Strapped
With blue and red back...

He had no teeth and neither did his girlfriend.
We’d sit in his apartment in the dark drinking margaritas and watch Jeopardy.
He’d answer every question correctly and his girlfriend would cackle.
He’d shoot at the mice with a pellet gun as they scurried in the shadows.
He rarely...
