Father's DayWhat is a father? One might ask. He is a species that helps the female of that species to produce life of an offspring. And, after that, is supportive in the development of the offspring. This would be a formal definition. However, where the development of the offspring to the female becomes present, the supportive...

Bound to SoundSuch a sensitive soothing sound,
As the words float around,
My thoughts are bound,
To what I've found,
A profound state of bliss,
As I witness it all unfold,
Uncovering the gold in silence,
The power in presence,
As my essence flows through reality,
Affecting all I see,
Knowing it's a reflection of me,
A...

FIRERiver makes its final clunk
Between
Hills
Rolling boulders like turtle shells
Empty of their mouths and hearts
River bent
Flailing legs and neck
No longer reflects
The sun and moon
From water’s absence down its back.
Turns her terrible brittle head
From me
Teeth gnashing on the spools of willow
To her memory
When mud was forest
Footsteps
Croaking with frogs and dazzled with dragonflies
Ringed in a halo of cold...

Chicks and Ducks in Splashing Spree
Bursting, breaking free from egg shells with glee
Baby chicks welcome their blest endowed worth
Amidst mother Earth’s radiating mirth
Ready to frolic in the pond --- there they flee.
Cheerful in their sunny color delight
Ducklings quack, inviting attention gain
While they wobble gladly, devoid of strain
Traversing terrain midst their dancing flight.
As water fowls of playful swimming zest
Ducks and chicks...

WOMANshe changed
No, she grew
she learned
she earned
she healed
she understood
she chose herself
she set boundaries
she prioritized herself
she stopped explaining
she stopped chasing
she embraced solitude
she honored her truth
she reclaimed her voice
she softened and stayed strong
she loved herself loudly
she became her own home.
"Above all, be the heroine of your life, not the victim."

A Waterfall Came into BeingA small rock detached itself from a distant planet,
And through a NEBULA of pure darkness
Burned its way across the blackness of outer space
Rushed its way to far off Earth by passing its LUNAR orbit.
It left behind MYRIAD sparks all glistening, until
It hit a river on Earth and furrowed a subsidiary way
Till it reached a cliff...

The Last Day of Spring
Sping is where it all begins
Before the universe came on the scene
Then shortly the summer appears
And drive out all the fear
The mornings were fresh and clean
And clean air from far and near
Floats gentle on the stream
And the ingredients from the sun
Soaked my flesh with its heavenly breath
And the pipes of sorrow quickly fade away
And...

THE CHOICESponsor : Kai Michael Neumann
for POINT OF NO RETURN
submitted : 31/5/25
THE CHOICE
here I arrived, breath away
boldly stepped out of a
Blue Train, not waiting for
fellow passengers with
tedious conversations about
Hemingway, Trump or Berlin
not that these were served on
gilded plate, croissant hot
excitement dissolved into
foreboding, pain shattered...

DifferentlyIs it so much that we believe in ourselves
You and I so different in life our journey
Difference in path we live same hopes
Mine not as rich as yours or is it
Each has purpose we find homelessness
We struggle the same dream of reality
Beaten? Or just experience of life's teachings
Our...

Tombstones in the Cemetery
Human life is striving for joy while saturated with busy
bits of an emotional seesaw, its movements leave traces
in so many places, our goal seems pre-disabled. So, it
is that despite emotional throes we seek fulfillment over
and over.
As God's own designed, divine-honed souls, we are
light sourced as formed in His realm. Reincarnation...

NIGHT MOONVisualizing the Moon from Earth
Seeing the reflecting skies having entertainment of its own
The Moon craters are like being in a trap
Stuck with no way to get out
Distance beyond
Horizon showing preserver years away
Heart of appreciation
Wonders through the skies of sensation
One’s life, fate and realities
Capturing the moment
The how, when and beyond
Scientist often the universe doubt
But have they...

Crayon Box DreamsWhen days of dreary tropes could feel no duller,
and gray heavens escape my pencil’s reach,
—oh misery!, it can’t be set to speech,—
my crayon box dreams of unbridled color!
When weeks waste precious hues for wanton squalor,
my paintings doning the pale death of bleach,
—or worse!—, if poetry can no more teach,—
my crayon box prays for fuller color!
Woe!Woe!Woe!—unto...

CHILDREN'S DAY VIBESChildren never fake it!
True love comes from them
I've never seen
A child fake a smile
Whenever they laugh
It comes from their heart
Portraying their beautiful soul
Without pains or hidden intentions.
Children never fake it!!
With innocent
They emerge earth
Without sin
Imitating whatever
They see
Watching whatever we do
Doing more of what we do than what we teach.
Children never fake...
