Eggshells
From a mouthful of this morning’s eggs,
I pull bits of char from yesterday’s breakfast.
‘I had no chance to scrub the pan’, I plea with myself-
But I still smash it over my skull
like a cartoon.

Every morning I wake up 
feeling last night’s feelings,
thinking last night’s thoughts,
about...

A Special Solar Eclipse
Awesome to witness this extraordinary phenomena 
The famous  rare' Ring of Fire' right over Africa!!
Today the sun's a terrific ruby ring in Tanzania
A fiery stunning cerise circumference, special effects, credits Creator Allah
As the luminous moon is bid to veil the dazzling sun
As it casts its...

Perfectionism
Ideas
thoughts
potential
scattered and unrelated
until 
A twist
a turn 
a perfect form,
balanced.
Yet it cannot be sustained
competing forces
expectations
The pattern dissolves
as it is compelled to turn 
away
from itself.
Exciting ideas
moving apart and at the same time
together.
A new shape forms,
for a moment.
Never ending movements 
interspersed with 
originality.
Calm but
fragile
as the slightest
pull 
threatens its...

Book: Radiant Verses: A Journey Through Inspiring Poetry



Premium Member Oceans Apart
Distant notes adrift of a lone melancholic mandolin 
Astride a gentle breeze covetous caress to my skin
Seductive and voluptuous a most impassioned plea
Bursts a sunset with fervent shades of lush alizarin

Promising nonchalant sensory whispers of ecstasy
Gardenia jasmine honeysuckle and stargazer lily
Sweet alluring seductive magnetic pull...

Eclipse
Pleiades...

Evening skies polarized
Early end to the light
Eyes spy orb above crags
Eager pinhole cam shows
Essence, inverted page
Eureka! Welding specs!
Everyone have a look!

Spiralling Stardust Sight
Spiralling Stardust Sight



Chasing clusters of dust and Venus vapid lust
We sail and we sway throughout the Milky Way
In a thrust, we land on a planet of candescent crust
And with dynamic display spiralling star dust spray

Jupiter and its moon Callisto a calamitous cocoon
With craters of ice,...

Spiraling Stardust Sight
Chasing clusters of dust and Venus vapid lust
We sailingly sway throughout the Milky Way
In a thrust, we land on a planet of candescent crust
And with dynamic display spiraling star dust spray

Mournful, Residual Toll
Lamp shade shrouds my blanched soul
Dimming, residual light o'er weary heart doth roll
Flickering memories cloud my intellectual pole
Obscure shadows flutter through subconscious pinhole
Dusk, fading hope through my restive spirit doth stroll
Encroaching darkness shutters my resolve; my psyche doth patrol
Murky thoughts leaf through my sensory scroll
Shimmering...

July Bride
I was so anxious to get away but I did not realize what was on the way
I got a standing ticket because all the tickets have been sold out some on the black market, others to friends, travelers and family
I was happy to accept it...

Darkness Elementary 226
If out of darkness comes light, then my life must be one ginormous ray of sunshine right about now. Coming out of a 14-year classroom coma, I am now awake, yet I continue to slumber afraid to take the sleep mask off. Like a blanket...

Who Tells
What do you say now?
Is there anybody who want to foul?
Standing behind and knocking,
Little lady....I see this sparkle rocking,
Life is full of dream,
Can't distinguish the laughter from the scream,
Out from the frying pan...straight to the fire,
Serif stuck to support.....I never mind,
No answer but I'm super,
Have...

Eclipse
You were too cool to think the same things were neat that I did-
            the mundane was beneath the notice of your evolved intellect.

You would not have deigned to explain the pinhole effect of...

Premium Member And Now For Something Completely Different
still i taste my lady from first

i met her in the wake of night.
a tiny flake of gold, 
traveling at the speed of light.

i dipped my plume, and 
used her bright white on a canvas black, 
mapped my way to her land.

Before i had another...

Dark of the Sun
Dark of the sun
shine your black light down on me,
from the pinhole spot of anti-matter
centred at your core.
That little speck of dirt,
a cosmic shrine of heresy,
absorbs the way the world seems flatter,
in any time of war.

Dark of the sun,
cast your ice-cream cone of night
like a...

The Sage of Time
The hidden script hidden inside his ribs,
prophecies screeching out of his limbs,
prophecies which create a universal theology,
a philosophy of the sage of time.,

The sage who traveled through time to change the course of wrath of human kind,thus the wrath came to an end as the...
