My head rests on the doorframe, as I'm watching him at work.
I'm jealous of the devotion, and the motion of his hands,
much surprised at the green-eyed dragon that lurks within my mind, 
while he rubs the pungent oil into muscles of the pine.

With rolled up...

Blue velvet caged
Behind rusty bars.
Soul within chars.
Fervent flames raged.

Mighty door creaked
Black-veiled phantoms
Chanting the anthems
Thus the dusts freaked.

All the phantoms read
The holy pages.
The pious sages
For repentance plead.

Life’s last drops
Time’s burning tears.
Soaked deep in fears,
Crushed by crops,

The soul crumples.
Satan’s oracle
Tempting manacle
On heart tramples.

Towers of flesh
Drag my weary...

Shower of autumn leaves and acorns,
And rustling sound as I stroll.
Those mesmerising bubbles all-round,
As I dive in the pool.
And also, when, looking into his eyes,
Silently, I can walk thousand miles.

Yes! This is the poetry to me.
The power to see the unseen!

A lady dressed in pink,...

Tombs begin to bloom like raw, bloodless wounds.
Tomes are written with truths of her dead moon’s
tones. A keening lunacy keeps the dirges alive, while
bones rise out of repose. A degloved hand on the dial
hones into a night rainbow's radio, she runs on solar,
hopes for the...

Irrefutable evolution conduits 
        Matter tip toes through tunnels
        Microscopic nano shifts continue 
        Outperformers filter free of funnel

~ Contention grows beyond its mortal vail
to rail against suppression none condone,
for tyranny imposed shall not prevail
when liberty is paid in flesh and bone.
   Let not the price deter the bold pursuit 
for apprehension steals the breath of life,
arise in arms from ‘neath...

Before you even realize temptations will arise 
satan  always tries to get you to accept his lies
Replacing for what you long with which is wrong
Not nearly so strong out where you don't belong

In drawing you near as to your desires you adhere
His ultimate goal...

Art cannot be rushed, patience is a must,
Craft is the same, it's the nature of the game.
First, the artist must adjust, to living life with little fuss.
As he hones his skill, through the power of his will,
Seeing finally through the boundaries,
of his mind now are...

Lanterns on a black canvas.
Fireflies dance, prance like ponies on a carousel.

Ricocheting cricket-squeaks,
Bounce among the frog-croaked airwaves;
Bouncing from one wet tip to another.

Spectral trees in the distance
Dance their ancestral dance to this music;
The heartbeat of the waves, keeping time;
natures’ metronome.

One hones the spirit to perfection...

Good health
sure wealth.

Heart beats
love greets.

Brain zest
thoughts best.

Face glows
praise shows.

Hands serve 
Strong nerve.

Feet fly 
steps high.

Firm bones 
skill hones.

Pulse rate 
joy’s state.

Cells cope 
life’s hope.

Saved soul 
best goal.

Spirit 
stays fit.

Wellness
gladness.

Smooth veins 
blood reigns.

Mind light 
faith might.

Great lift
God’s gift....

After winter’s cold, Apple Blossoms unfold.
Bright, fresh spring brings Bluebells to behold.
Cheery Cherry Blossoms burst then dance to ground.
Delightful Dahlias bloom spring all around.
Eastern Redbuds warm cold winter emotion and
Fresh Freesia compliments each spring notion.
Gardenias touch each faith-filled belief.
Hardy Heath hones its spring dream leaf.
Impatiens...

Sometimes we look to closest friends,  
Expressly those who think we're ace:   
Let them confirm our worth but still       
Forget, inside us lies the proof.           ...

Oh she soars above the twilight
spreads her wings towards the lantern,
instinct hones towards Blighty’s bight
mind confused thinking of Skipton.

Gone the lure of tropical nights
diamond scattered heaven above,
only the cliffs of dolomites
to where here is her true love.

Waiting in anticipation
trauma the drama yet the fight,
together participation
oh...
