I stubbed my toe ...

  (I do this a lot since turning fifty-five,
   when everything I picked up to read began going to
   arm's length in order to be visible,
   and "readers" became a permanent style change -

and spread its deluge
of dark evil
onto the fresh green land
gloated
western skies reverberated
with joyous tales
trees had fallen!

Wrenching writhing
of capacious weeping willows
In a dubious dream vault
I felt spurred to seek safety
from scorching sun
subsequently, in confusion,
I broke into a wide smile
that reverberated within
an...

The year is 2025
I have come back to my past
To witness the Mayans
Who said Earth would not last

2012
Was the year they declared
That the planet we knew
Could never be spared

An Asteroid shower
We could never comprehend 
Sends this heaven to hell
In catastrophic spend

The first to hit
Was the...

Electric poems reverberated,
Within the walls of a London abode.
A psychedelic haze fueled the gift,
That a creative heart was bestowed.

Far from his broomstick days,
Passionate strums…electrified the room.
Emphasizing the pain from within,
Recalling the days he strummed the broom.

Acid rock...illuminated the winding path,
That led his creative heart to...

Her name was Anarkali, 
an eloquent carnival of legendary beauty.
a dancer in the court of Emperor Akbar.
Deep russet rouge blushed her red,
a silky smile on her rosy peach cheeks 
rich, sensual and seductive...
With the sweet scent of jasmine, and 
festal moonlight of crystal starred sky,
the...

The rumours were persistent; the split was on the cards
sad news to music lovers, despair for lonely hearts.
Fab Four disintegrated, a tragedy for some,
but fame by then was certain, a legend to become.

        My mates and fans forever...

"Who are you to enter my room?", her aunt's screams terrified the 10 years old's cold feet. 

She ran away from there while her aunt's question reverberated in her tender mind. 

Years later the question got its answer when the girl's name was printed on...

yesterday
I worked without being able to control myself
I thought I was a guy in a pot of clouds
coming out of one of the earth
frightened

at midnight the endless midnight and I stretched out my hands
to catch him
to run

I fell asleep tired
stolen into nothingness

almost morning
you opened my...

The heavenly music my soul heard and the bliss of its sound reverberated in my heart!

Is dance a metaphor for sex?
You’d think so if you knew my ex
(at least the barflies all believe
she’s hoarding something up her sleeve).
But what makes people want to dance?
An aural frenzy? True romance?
Would Hamlet, Shylock or Macbeth
ever dance themselves to death?
Strasbourg is the kind of...

When the tar-soaked rain cascades from ominous clouds,  
And the oceans roar with Poseidon’s might,  
As the screaming ground heaves beneath your careless feet,  
Will your deadly heart remember the last 39 minutes of my life?  
When tears stained my scarred...

They were gambling in front of the house.
Manservants and pages bustled about
Serving Suitors who just curse and carouse.
Few mix wine with water. I heard one shout,
"Clean down the tables with wet sponges! Rouse
Yourselves! And when you've done that lay them out
Again!" Some others carve mountains...

The shepherd stood on the field, frail,
He knew not what to do when and why,
As the wrathful sun did steep down,
The confused chap followed his humble sheep.
Then one man neared and asked his name,
He gasped to answer the simple query,
The beads of sweat was vivid...

(waterfall sounds.... birds chirping)

a peaceful cello melody sings joyful
resonating in perfect pitch --- the pianist's heart
a praying soul within the strings echoes
reverberated with nature's gaiety --- the cellist's smile
smooth movement of hands and fingers
music is flowing through each rising notes
a pianist's touch is sincere
hovering bow...
