Among flowers of dazzling beauty, under the sky of unfulfilled and lost dreams
Among flowers of dazzling beauty, under the sky of unfulfilled and lost dreams,
I see graceful webs, meticulously woven, like a dance of passion in the morning light,
No proud architect can create such a veil of illusions and hidden mysteries,
The sticky dreams of deep melancholy whisper of endings that lurk silently.
Hidden teeth, like shadows, await the

Dazzling Bright Boy
A light in my hands,
Wonder in my eyes,
No one understands
My glowing surprise!
Do you see with me,
As I gape and stare?
Will you catch for me,
This fire light I bear?
Little I am now,
But will soon grow up,
Learn the why and how
This bottle glows, yup!
Look at me, I

Egwu
I heard footsteps approaching, and two knocks on my door.
I thought it was Oluchi, an angel recreated in human form.
I opened with curiosity to behold my priceless gem.
Stretching my hands to her waist, I felt the thick darkness in my palms.
“Who's there?”
A cool breeze greeted me, leaving the dazzling moon to gaze at me.
Is it

Dazzling Sunrise, Come Quickly
If this increasing darkness conveys a fear not chided,
as ghostly shadows conspicuously confer mystery:
do I hide or firmly resist being threatened
by their miserable aspect of susceptibility?
Anxiety builds fret inside first slowly, then rapidly?
I squeeze and snuggle a fluffy pillow deep red,
expecting the worse nightmare to appear;
agitated by eerie sounds, I invoke the Almighty!
Dazzling sunrise, come

Her Radiance
Neither the starlight nor the bright of day
could end the darkness that confined my soul
But the spark of your eyes, to which I turned my gaze
Illuminated my life, and made it whole.

Dinner Cruise
It's a beautiful evening as we wait in line to board our boat
Autumn is in the air we require a light coat
The Mississippi River waters rejoice in the glowing moonlight
We are greeted by the captain encouraging us to kick back and enjoy the night
Once aboard a flight of stairs, we must climb with a three-course

Stunningly Dazzling
from hazy pastel shades of blue
bound by storms
a fiery glow
smooth and shiny
zigzags of xanthous and marigold
zooming the horizon
rolling tyrolean choric runes
exquisitely enhanced wall murals
with a flaxen-colored scheme.
as well as soloists
dazzling tangents and
waves of origami art
tune tones and beguile the waves
to an oneiric shimmer

Dazzling Coolness
In a moment, my soul's thirst, you quench
Away from you, my eyes I can't wrench.
Who better than you, to cool me down?
Into a smile, you always turn my frown.
You dazzle me with your bright colours
Make me jealous seeing you with others.
Though I long for you more and more
I want to take my time to
