Best Endless Poems
In endless moments waking
Alone she sits at twilight
to dream of shimmered lace
While staring at the moonlight
reflecting on her face
The winds of change are brewing
through evergreens they call
To question what she’s doing
believing in it all
Her heart begins to travel
with wishes sent a far
As boundaries unravel
to touch the farthest star
She floats on wishes sharing
so soft upon a wing
While in the dark she’s staring
to futures it may bring
She knows it’s disappearing
for night is soon to end
The daylight she is fearing
a morning comes to send
Until the dawn is breaking
her eyes they cast a glow
In endless moments waking
that only she can know
Infinite Loves Pi
Circling souls, forever one,
Decimal twirls, a spiral kiss
Endless loop, hearts entwined
Burning bright, love's endless climb.
Essence of Endless,
inspire my vibrant thunder to sing
rather than roar
and stir my vivid lightening to strum
rather than strike -
only Your mercies tame my wild nature;
recycling a raging rain -
evaporating my tempest of tears,
allowing dewy angels’ air to breathe new life into the living.

In a valley where our hands etched the moon
Through luster of nightfall’s October veil;
We shared confidences through hazed monsoon
As I rambled on, keeping each detail
Of common views…angels, books, a jazz tune
While a serenade for two charmed night’s grail,
Igniting warmth with his presence everyday…
Slowly, we knew this was destiny’s way.
Through persistent journeys, time clasped one spark
Enshrining three years graced by light above,
A pledge to remain steadfast, to embark
On endless devotion crowned by flamed love.
Again, he offered eternity’s mark,
That would seal our vow like heaven’s white dove
And my moist eyes glistened just like before,
“Dear one, fate shall lead us to evermore.”

Verdant bounty surrounding me.
Crystal waters and lush slopes I see.
Dancing at the foot of a mountain ridge
are rays of sunshine in guise
of yellow daffodils.
Amber tinged clouds embrace a lofty peak
and evergreens upon the mountainside
appear so magical I cannot speak.
Downward to the valley they seem to slide.
among wildflowers
water cascades from green cliffs . .
in an endless spring

My life is but a leaf atop an ocean flowing bliss,
on waves of firm conclusions built on reasons that I miss
I take each day as it does come in mystic falling beams
to fill the many corners of my multicolored dreams
Up and down in freedom form the open waters dance,
smooth the real transition to the tremors of romance
Vast the far horizons come to choose what they may show,
as I rest so peaceful within southern breezes flow
Timeless counted visions that do soar about my mind,
pictures painted perfect of the wisdom I might find
Stories told that hold the thoughts in words another writes,
entertainment spawned of many days and many nights
Now I float upon these waves, a far off distance shore,
to hold the one of wondrous grace my heart it does adore
I shall come a calling on the eve of loving ways,
to know in calculation we have reached eternal days
Adrift among the numbers of the minutes that we see,
the tide shall come a waning as the moon brings you to me
Beneath these stars of evermore which brightly shine aglow,
sending forth the message of a truth you long to know
Lift me now my angel from this aqua blue marine,
gently for to cradle in this moment found serene
Of this golden fantasy I come to see it’s true,
this love that I’ve been waiting for lies in the heart of you
So here along the foaming frame, an outline of the beach,
to know time is the student of the hours that we teach
I spend my life in harmony beneath blue skies above
and share my world with you upon an endless sea of love
In my soul, I shall never find
another who completes me like you.
Our endless love, for strength 'tis true,
I rely to face those days of resign.
But always does my heart remind
of blessings from heavenly blue.
The ties of eternity like glue
shall always endure, bridge and bind.
My heart renewed was once threadbare
worn and ragged under bitter tears.
Oh, the first dance of love as a pair!
Tears of joy displace the trembling fears.
A love entwines two hearts aware
as endless bands of gold appear.
Do I fly into another day without you?
With wings of a luminescent swan,
I swoop towards heavenly certainties
Holding each verse your breaths create
On our virgin parchment
Do I dream another dream for serendipity’s touch?
A touch against crevices’ misunderstanding
Stroking forgiveness under lips of a luxurious whisper
Where are your thoughts?
Where are your memories of yesterday’s certainty?
Do I ascend towards sacrifices’ downfall with weighted inhales?
Hoping each moment our paired hands cross,
Will not become downplayed uprisings
My solaced smile urges for your tunnel vision.
…
Because new sunrise’s pertinent grin has yet to be unwrapped!
Yet, they say tomorrows’ hidden asterisk
Is not guaranteed
But, this love,
THIS LOVE,
Is for today
Unwrapped
For you
Endlessly

(not to take too seriously; I think I am immune
to my "enemies" by now!)
How near to us are foes we can’t resist
when cells, like terrorists that we can’t see
accumulate! What parasites exist
within our very homes! We can’t be free
of them, and even the perfectionist
can’t rid his castle of the enemy.
They have no need of camouflage. They breed,
for on those cells sloughed off our skin they feed!
Though microscopic, they are numberless.
For those with allergies, the “mighty” mite
can wreak some damage. Nasty, they possess
the air we breathe, the beds we use at night!
And they will never simply evanesce. . .
To kill them off requires a constant fight,
but no one, sadly, perfectly defeats
them, even vacuuming and changing sheets!
Inside the fridge, on counters, in the sink
lurk others. Do not be too much at ease.
The very sponge you’re using, which you think
is helping, could be spreading a disease!
Who knows what swarms in water that we drink,
on spinach leaves or just a piece of cheese?
How fleet is time; how bleak to have to spend
it on a war we know will never end!
Endless poverty
If they still lie to us
They got nothing to offer
Is not new anymore
How strange things are
Changing
Right in front of our eyes
They always lie lie and lie
Not minding the cost
Of their lies on our lifes
Endless poverty
If they still rule us
In illusion
Then calamity will never
Ever be far from our life's
They know the truth
But that is not their business
They know what is right
But that is non profitable
To them
They know our needs
And that is a tool to there manipulation on us
Endless poverty
If we still believe in them
Them that dont gave
No care to our rights
Then we are doomed forever
As long as they exist
As the staff of our authority
We will continue to wallow
In shadows of pains
Through their nets of an
Endless poverty
Once upon a time
My lady called
I stood mesmerized
At ocean’s cusp
Glinting, glimmering, gleaming
Thousands of sparklers
Dot her sequined dress
Shouting
Look at me!
Look at me!
Breathless ripples strew pebbles at shores edge
Cormorants perch on hips of slate
Eyes of diamond reflect starry nets
Starfish mouth warm honeycombs of tide pools
Waves of breast, milky white, feed the minions
Feet of clay glue her honeyed presence
Roaring, rumbling, ripping
Like the sea serpents
Who call her waters home
She crashes
Into shore’s stationary sentinels
Whose feet she laps unceasingly
Capricious as she is
This lady is not fickle
The meditative state
Which hypnotized and paralyzed
Is there
For your embrace
In the garden of my youth, I sprouted
first among four others. each a bud
that bloomed with me, distinctive, yet
nourished with our mother's blood.
No longer side by side,
we stay friends because
my sisters grew
into my
endless
love.
For Linda's Friendship Contest
the moments of children are endless
until time intervenes
imagination filled joy claims the light of day
how small their world, and yet
how vast their kingdom
where the next thought is another minute of fun
not escaping the world
rather...living in it for all the happiness to come
free from worry or concerns
where responsibility is foreign and unknown
and play, is there to be captured
by creative imagination in their world of dreams
when the mind of a child is unafraid to explore
every thought, that freely flows, unrestrained
from the burdens of failure
a time to pass through, to be remembered when old
when we were touched by the breath of God
and called Angels

A heart as pure as the translucent water
Free flowing like the cascading waterfall
A heart as bottomless as the ocean.
Open like the heavens that sparkle at night
As endless as the ever expanding universe
With no beginning or no end.
A voice that flows on the open winds
Calling my name on each gusty flow
Eyes that drown in crystalline pools.
Blue as the sparkling waters hue
A voice as soft as white fluffy clouds
That flow effortlessly and endlessly.
Words only spoken with love
Woven into the stitches of time
An endless love to be all mine.
my Valentine's rose
is made from red crepe paper
true love forever
