I’m trapped beneath age’s scorching sun
Tossed by indecisive winds
I walk alone in the chilled night

I must find the combination
Swing open ancient memories gate
Grant my brief escape
So that I might touch a truth
I...

Wet eyes dripping drops,
Reddened in the heat of grief;
'O' baby, my baby,
Why were you born,
In this poor man's house?
Nothing is in order,
No stable job in hand; 
The work I know is out dated,
In this modern world;
In my past, 
People lived for people,
Now is material world;

Heart swelling, blood pumping swiftly through my veins,
        	Blood warming my skin, relaxes each and every muscle.

Anger like noon blazing
Parches all the earth below
Leaving it barren

And follow in the dark night
Nothing here shall ever grow...

midst blazing sun rays
verdant landscapes turn arid 
parched lands lay barren

summer* heat scorching 
luscious vegetation dries
awaiting rain fall

heaven's blessings yearned**
down pour of water crystals
God's grace flowing down

*Psalm 32:4 … Moisture is turned into the drought of summer.

Golden waves sway in a strange sky to create a new shade.
With bare feet, cross a shroud's path, but no one is aware.
Summer starts as scarlet hues salute a mottled promenade.
This image has gold sparkle and blue padded birds there.

The scorching sunbeams
Envelop this atmosphere
In no time, for sure,
As if Nature is about
To blow her bugle of war....

sand blistering hot
     throat parched I need water
              ah an oasis

where could it have went
     it just upped and disappeared
