Premium Member pristine poetic palace
I am the 
     cascading radiance,
 between apricot 
   glows of gloaming,
when mauve mists shift,
mirroring sage seas of love, 
I look beyond silvery skies
  whilst selfless stars sprinkle,
sizzling streaks
 of sunflower sparkles~
upon wrinkled 
 waves of weariness.

Adebimpe, the African Beauty
ADEBIMPE

Going through this life at a frenzied pace
It's clear why we call it human race
I saw a piece of carefully gathered stardust
A desire for every parent


Adebimpe, a true definition of Omoluabi
Ornamented with great courtesy
Is she from this generation?
Is she for this generation?


Within bounds how do...

Premium Member Omens Outlived
With a voice ornamented in ogled tension
you ask me,
like vulnerable flesh queries warm obsession,
Do you mean to love me this way...
on your mouth, a hold of hope I see
to you I say...
Does the sun choose to flare into sapphire atmosphere,
Does the moon decide who's eyes...

It's not fair to talk to you without knowing you....
It's not fair to have your voice screaming in my head without seeing you...
It's not fair to feel your words but never to feel you...
It's not fair to dream in black and white...Can't reach for any...

Silk-Fire and Arctic-Air
I'm silk-fire, curled in emblazoned quartz horizons,
Of aurous equator, rising in smoke as a secular bird, 
From own fossil-ashes, flying to distant honey-shores, scarlet spun, 
Stretching across merlot crusts of earth, like a coal-storm, sobered 

Yet, my heart is not a silent sandstone, flaming with...

The caged bird sings with a fearful trill, of things unknown, but longed for still, and his tune is heard on the distant hill, for the caged bird sings of freedom-
Maya Angelou


Reality may be a poetic cocktail of pistachio and pecan,
yet it tastes the same...

Barong Tagalog: Carrying the Style and Wearing a True Legacy
Strands of satiny pineapple fibers
From the superbly prickly pieces of leaves
Refined by the nifty naked hands
Of the great sophisticated artisans
Beyond this unequaled plant
Is a peculiar product exist
Only native Filipinos - Tagalogs can procreate
An art of aesthetic craftsmen
The fabric of my historical breed
Versatile apparel suits for...

He Is Ever Welcome, Not Just At Special Time of Year
Brief Prelude 
Diwali is a vivacious festival of Lights celebrated in India. It's big revelry time (akin to Christmas). The key symbolic aspect of festivity is lighting of oil lamps all around and indulging in fireworks. Night time, it's like stars descending on earth. .....Thanks

The Red Or Black Rose
THE RED/BLACK ROSE
-------------------------------
If I a placid pond sit
Still my shallow grounds
Engulfed within the woods
Submerged and bound

Arrayed with ruby rings
Robed in brunette pearls
What jewel would justly paint
With brush my clearest tint

Wouldst any drown the drink
The tongue calls a quench
Cool and clear as white
Atop the moonlit sky
Or...

The Charm of Spring
I passed in a garden
with the gaits of the wind.
I saw the owner of garden
with the art of love
in the look of a rose.
The branches of all the
trees were ornamented with
the blossom of the apple.
Bravo, the art of the charm
of the spring. The green
velvet of...

Painter of the Sky
PAINTER OF THE SKY

Before the beginning of all creations you were
You wove the very foundations to be seemingly fair
Everything stood firm and still
You did this by the words your mouths fill.

Seven centuries you took to paint 
Man and birds and bears breathing your air without...

"And Today's Special is Wine and Cheese" 

Some wine and cheese  

If you would please  

Depressed, I cannot express myself for I’m being oppressed and repressed  

Yet, I reside in the west, my lines are treated as an unwelcome guest

I’ve ornamented ideas...
