Best Hillocks Poems
Why I WeepI'm named a willow tree and live in grace,
the whole of me distinctive in its shape.
My elegance well suits this lush landscape
of hillocks flung across the field I face. . .
and gentle rills meander through this place.
In spring I don a long virescent cape
comprised...

My CityOf the Gods own country
of this paradise
where green and blue
merge as one
in the north is a city
that encompass the beauty
where the dream lands meet
lined by kaasaraka trees
where seven tongues are spoken
and a unique lingo was woken
lined by shores and calm beaches
which meets with forts of...

The Mystic Valley of DzokuWhile rambling like a vagabond in a seraphic poetic submersion, in a remote region, witnessed the most captivated sight ever,
a sleeping valley rippled in wild blooms, as sparkling in mystical celestial beam, in the mesas of the clouds, the Dzukou Valley,
a remote dale...

And Now They'Ve GoneI've searched nearby hillocks and sand.
They've gone missing sooner than late:
no wildflowers to perk barren land,
gypsy flowers by garden gate.
Where are those tiny violets
that snuggled closely to the ground;
yellows that smiled to all they met,
iris-hued daisies always found?
Blossoms dipped in a sunset's peach
once caressed my...

WildflowersAspen leaves flutter like birds
as a breeze ponders the lake's surface
and I brush away a willow leaf of cold jade.
Soon there will be a face in the moon
with its familiar brow arched
over what should be cornflowers
now residing beyond the lambent braids
of feral rye and muscled...

Reflections By Clintons Red MillGoing through its ambiance, (on) with open thoughts,
Past scenes so serene, and picturesque (in situ passed).
A house, its windows just ajar to the tactile winsome breeze
That taste of zest & adventure infused; with distilled memory’s,
And (sensed) delights unmet “as yet”.the wend of life so...

Fireflies and Sea Poppies
"Fireflies and Sea Poppies"
glow up
a short life
buzzing by
lighting up the
shoreline
caves
they're heading for
silent crowded sanctuary
stick fast like glow worms
fire lit to cold walls
words on the body
of the conscious all
written thoughts
burning in soliloquay
hear the call
red sea poppies
standing scarlet
marked...

Dancing In GreenLet’s dress up in green! It’s a cinch!
You don’t have to cover each inch.
We’ll dance on green hillocks
among all the shamrocks!
Come on or I’m going to pinch!

Black DiamondAn elegant black movement
A sparkle from within
Embroidery of golden light
Knitting magic on the skin
Raising the gleaming axe
Aiming at the dry branch
The black diamond in pursuit
Of her daily livelihood
Many a male tourist in the hills
Seeks to have the sparkling diamond
Like a necklace in...

The Friday With the CrayonNo dear
Make the date for the tea
Friday at three
For the moon will be
At the windows
At the wee hours
And it will be the full moons
We will pick up as much as we choose
With the scarlet spoon
Monday the sun is hot
No room to look at the blooms
Right...

The Ruba'Iyat of Creteil Lake - Part EighteenThe Ruba’iyat of Créteil Lake – Part Eighteen
Even as the lower rubbed its dazed eyes over Her hillocks
The light-foot Lass of Lahore made her way past the boating docks
Past the Marie’s dank reedy banks over Her heaving breast
Tip-toeing over the complaining boards of Her nose-bridge...

Signs of the TimeHitherto a sleepy way-lost village,
Shall now enter history’s fresh new sheet,
Vain may turn lessons of its farm college,
That would wonder how men should the greens treat.
Poor greens to greed shall now the tithe pay,
Life alive to dead graveyard shall yield ground,
Grey iron...

Up But Down- Part 5Up but Down…part-5
“Poor place”, the spectral humming of the winds
Seems to tell, “the hills too would have to lose
Their birthright just like everyone of us.
On the way upward, somebody points
To a pitiful mile or so and tells
‘These are virgin forests left as they are’
But whereas...

The Ruba'Iyat of Creteil Lake - Part Twenty-ThreeThe Ruba’iyat of Créteil Lake – Part Twenty-Three
Is it true the sun dared cock its eye over the hillocks
Nor did it with affront sink into raging Atlantic docks
Such the glare of armoured headlights singeing the mist-crowned mosque
Though the assembled hosts ogled the Furies with hidden...

Epiphany On Route 78Layer by furry layer,
The deer carcass
Dissolves into the infinite
Returns to the radiance
It came from.
Dazzled by the Sun, I drive
Taking in the sunny salted freeway
Brilliant mile by brilliant mile,
Air pristine by icy hillocks,
Engine singing on all fours
And my license plate’s my name.
Who has...
