Afraid of marriage, I got scared
It feels like making tea
Onset, the aroma of tea is elegant
But the tea will get thinner and thinner to last
Union of two person is good at the start
It's like fresh grapes so sweet at the first taste
When in age goes on it will liken to raisin
Good to use as ingredient for food to sweeten
With the passage of time love is bond with time
If tea aroma is empty you fill another cup for sustenance
Aroma brimming with talent and for a long time
I'm a lucky guy, you are the grape in the altar
At that time, our love and the crystallization of love
It's the wanton aroma haunting me
Wish I could talk to you, live a good life.

Have you ever felt from a song
A song that reminded you how you can live
The rush of the wind, the desire to climb
A quickly-building monument to the beauty of creation
How quickly a mood changes with a play
The sorrow of loss, a lament to the sky
for what was not lost to you
what you may never be lucky enough to lose
A mournful numbness, a malady of words, a sea to be swallowed by
An arrogant strut behind what they have done and claim to do
A hyperactive child in a candy store
An invitation to someone else's moment, a happy party
A strut in saying something how it is, sauntering up to your boss's reddened face
A spontaneous guffaw from a line so out of place
A dance in a language you cannot understand
Siphoned emotions from founts
Some people urging you to drink from
Some urging you to bathe and not drink, to not feel
Some that were left and coyly watched
Some that were abandoned
Some that were trapped in amber
How could where we live, where we choose to drink, not say a lot about us?
Such a pure crystallization of what is so slippery to say

sunlit icicles drip like moments leaving us
the naked splash of frigid water
as jagged edges soften in
February sun
crystallization
chopping off
glazed spikes
displaced
shatttered
by a fall to glinted pieces
winter's dimpled gems
that free the muted grip
of weary

Tight-lipped, transparent, and stuck in a mono-TV
Am I alive or dead? I don't feel pleasure nor pain
Numbness is all I can sense under the pretense
"This is for my sake"
Square-shaped deceptions bind me
A soothing night-sky dimmed the spark in my eye

Rainbow leaves have begun
Their carpeting of the earth’s floor
Leaving weird-looking naked branches;
Their abandon nests no longer with tenants.
As their waters approach crystallization,
Pond populations are on the decline
And what use to be thick blinding forests
Now yield visibility to once hidden curiosities.
No longer are heard cheerful morning avian choirs
Nor the nightly symphonies of the frogs and crickets,
And the 24-hour cycle seems to pass by in strange stillness
As ground creatures appear to have quietly gone deeply under.
Forested does and bucks leisurely roam the roadside
To now feast on tasty salt-seasoned grass of the season;
Above in the chilled spaces of the quiet blue sky,
Drone soaring buzzards patiently awake the roadkill.
Wrapped in my sitting blanket, my feet in warm furry slippers,
I sit here with my eyes flooded with warm fireplace flames—
Trying to imagine how the Underground Railroad was able to
Crawl mountains, run through valleys, and wade winter rivers.

What is friendship to me but a culmination
Qualities with signs of kindness and compassion
Earned respect for fair play heed no hesitation
Backbone and humility in the equation
Striving for lofty ideals and ambition
Rising above the mundane orientation
Hints of spirituality’s revelation
With a penchant for beauty, art and creation
For you, my friend, I have but words of ovation
Your heart thunders proud flaunting determination
Wielding words like harnessing intoxication
Epitome of virtues’ crystallization

Kaleidoscope of a rainbow's hope,
realizations of grandiosity from a splendorous mount-
A looking glass for a peace, alas,
crystallization of beauty from an azure fount.
Sunset hues of yellow and white,
with a splash of Prussian in rain's delight-
Contrasts of the day and night
with a flash of a lover's fantasy sight.
Spectrum dreams, not as it seems,
continuous light shines with fervor's gleam-
A rift of a cliff of a twilit stream,
clashes with reverie’s majestic supreme.
I've seen the beauty held in
a rainbow's desire, as the rain ends with sangria fire-
Releasing all the glow acquired with the flow,
glistened tints of pink sapphire.
Palatial sprays in canary ways are believed to
shower life with nectar,
my medallion stays on my porch
these days, and receive nourishment from a
butterfly collector.
Chartreuse and cobalt
with a splash of honeyed hazel shimmer,
brings abstruse beauty with a flash
of lovely palatial glimmer.

Ensnared in
the crystallization
of web's
intimidating deception,
superficial spider
met its
duplicitous match,
whence the improvised
contortionist morphed
forth from her chrysalis,
spun midst grandeur
of liberation's flight 'pon
triumphantly rivaled
diaphanous inception

Impermeable waters thrill the air
To invigorate tiptoes everywhere,
Dizzy where moist grasses and blooms unfurl
As herons pirouette through a curved swirl,
Where mist, in full hydration, reels a while
Its tangy perfume …the senses beguile!
As crystallization forms like soft ice
From mild gushes, flowing tendrils baptize
The requisite weave of crests, its tidal intent
Where islet’s limbs end a water dance’s fest
Oh, precipitation of gust crowns the moon
Tugging lovers and dreams in a ballad’s tune.

Wash away corruption, precipitation cleanses our deeds,
Artesian aquifers washing, and nurturing planted seeds,
Torrential downfalls, baptize impermeable desert sands,
Eternal crystallization, fractals break the father’s lands,
Requisite of life, hydration for the soul, we sup on heaven’s bounty,
Sands and sins abated, lie awash profoundly, we drink of them no more.

Fresh water the requisite for frogs
Hydration for their eggs
They sing as precipitation falls
And swim with those legs
High pitched croaks invigorate
Their desire, leave some awake
Crystallization of chlorine
Only helps the cycle break
Pool water impermeable
When those slimy eggs float
Precipitation pleasantries
Washed away by that note

Water covers three quarters of the earth,
And provides for life that's diverse,
It is an absolute requisite for life,
And it's precipitation as rain,
Is what keeps this planet sane.
Without its hydration,
All living beings energy is drained.
There are very few substances
that can hold water
and are impermeable to its flow.
Every seed you sow
Needs water to grow.
The earth emits her precious minerals,
In the form of crystallization.
On a dry day
Water can invigorate a distressed brain.
Water the all-weather weaver of life,
Witnessing wonderful life flourishing.
Water running down the hills as a river,
Ensures green bounty on it banks,
While meandering through the valleys and plains,
And bestowing life even to the humble grains.
