The sun is overjoyed
reaching its zenith
suspending in cloudless sapphire skies
in a scarlet lit horizon
its solar sheen is veiled,
beyond the handsome hacienda
hidden from ancient alibis
a time of musings I can’t resist
I paint a likeness of her,
wistful watercolor bursts
highlights by brushed strokes
gently caressing her skin, she wears
an unrestrained ear to ear grin
recherché, warmth rare
as a ruby red stone
a sonorous soprano’s tone
ravened tresses cascade unruly
copious tangled locks flow wild
within stirs the silver stars,
she perceives the wisdom in the callow
& indelible in the wise
youths’ oval ebony, &soulful eyes
a generous yet haunting sad smile,
transcending space &time
it rids me of my harden heart’s denial
on a quest of her own,
a love child grown
…&so has a
a mother’s love
Their ma & pa were Eastenders
Blah blah..don’t remember the Blitz
Brash Cockney pretenders..same flash apparel
Let's get our mitts on a stash of Aperol spritz
Dimwits just going on benders
Bawdy tawdry mockney skits
Gits getting off their t*ts
Twits showing off their bits
Who fits?..Identikit Brits..pout
All about the clout of gaudy glitz
Silhouettes of stiletto dancers & handbags
Riff raff as naff as an 80’s cornetto
Perms & permatans..sl*gs..fancy dans in glad rags
Rhyming slang falsetto twang libretto
Chancers on a stag..s*ag nip & tuck hags
Nags of WAGS made up to the nines
Brag after cocaine lines did blag
One snag..look like a dag in drag
All from the fashion label stable
No restraint.. cannot refrain
Grandstand the brands fable
Diadora diaspora ..Fila Villa
With a Pierre Cardin Jardin
Taint just like they do in Spain
Sex..success…the way you dress
Prosecco fizz...getting in a tizz
Gilded specs and builded pecs
Greed and that need to impress
Avoid don't feed this schadenfreude hell
That is indeed called Costa Del ESSEX
El Árbol del Tule, what a legendary tree!
More than two thousands years is her age, history!
The ancient Giant tree El Árbol del Tule so cool!
Place it on my tongue, Dulce del Diablo.
I am available with nowhere to go,
I will follow your lead, I will be in tow.
Let’s make a mockery of my dancing shoes,
prolongate the melody what do you choose?
Do not let me go, the magic we will lose.
I can feel the heat the fire within your eyes,
you’re no demon you’re a bird of paradise.
For this moment I’m willing to pay the price.
Let us waste away the hours until daybreak
forgetting for a moment what is at stake.
Affection is a chance everyone must take.
Hot as cinnamon and as sweet as candy,
absolute power I feel it intensely.
Dulce del Diablo will you dance with me?
Simply put
since it's worth mentioning
thought I'd bring this to your
attention
I don't wannabe like this
only to walk away
what can I say
tell me what
can I say
People you disappoint
I try to impress
sometimes
it aint about just you
Think of more than yourself
what I am gonna say
about you and I
when they ask me are ya'll
together
I don't wanna cry
I dpn't wanna cry
Love champions some
and saves plenty
Love aint worth a pile of beans
when you got to many
Lovers hear what I say
My lover take heed
it's you and I
it's you and I
Darling you know what I mean
take your time make me
the center of your
effections
keep me lover
keep me
don't keep me guessing
It's a sincere compliment
you know you are very
important to me
bring it up
only to change my mind
guess you wanna know
why I'm acting so
sweet and kind
guess you recognize it
by the way I make you feel
keeping it real
I'm in love with you
Keeping it real
even though I don't know
what I'm talking about
we got it over
and whn we didn't have much
to say
love soothed all the
heartache away
kissed me and then
a whisper
tonight we started loving
each other again
cause your more then a fre
tonight we start loving
one another again
Looked out the window
saw you coming in
opened the door
for my best friend
saw your smile
and that's when
I was so in love
and I'm still in love
say you love me
and I'll say I love you too
aint knowthing in the
world I won't do
you know it's true
Si el agua es para hidratarse
¿Por qué tus labios no pueden salvarme?
En su roce encuentro el eco,
de un deseo que no cesa de buscarme.
Tu mirada es un océano profundo,
donde navego sin rumbo definido,
esperando encontrar en sus corrientes,
el aliento que avive mi latido.
Las noches son largas sin tu aliento,
y el día se disuelve en añoranza,
porque en cada gota de este tormento,
hay un sorbo de tu presencia ausente.
Si el agua es para dar vida,
tus besos deberían revivirme,
pero solo me ahogo en este anhelo,
esperando que vuelvas a sentirme.
Así, mi sed es eterna,
en un desierto de esperanza y desvelo,
donde cada pensamiento tuyo,
es un oasis que nunca puedo tocar.
The waves kissed the shore
again and again and again
the waves kissed the shore
every second or so
to remind her
how much
she is loved.
-petulance poetry
surrounded by the past-
the sensation lasts&lasts
Full of sun, you bloom
Giving all the world a smile
As you touch the sky

Sells dodgy bent gear and smokes a cigar
Drives a yellow three wheeler T.I.T company car.

A dipstick, a wally, a plonker or Dave
With two GCEs he feels like an under-paid slave.

“Wrongs”
A million feet marching
A million feet bleeding
A million feet searching
Marching for life
Bleeding from war
Searching for beds
What is this for?
They have nothing left
Why did they lose?
The sun no longer shines
There are earthquakes, floods and fires.
There are wars, crime and hate
A million feet marching
The sky no longer bright
There is drought, pestilence, and starvation
There is sickness, illiteracy and poverty
A million feet bleeding
No stars in the night
There is politics, greed and wealth
There is abuse, disease and deadly shots in the dark
A million feet searching
There is.............
$200,000,000 on a space flight of four
There could be..............
$20,000 each to 10,000 under a bridge in Del Rio
Is there anything wrong
With this picture?
How insanely stupid are we?
Simple,shining sun.
Sliding silently to set.
Sundown silence,sh.

Muerte del Corazon
I smile but a tear fell
I laughed but then I cried
I love but then I lost
I failed to have your heart
A poem with bleeding words
A song without a rhyme
A prose of broken dreams
A nightmare of my heart
A laughter full of sadness
A rose that’s full of thorns
A happy memory
That leadeth to a scorn
It’s supposed to give me life
Yet it dragged me to the grave
The very reason why
Her world I have to leave
I breathe yet I am dead
I felt yet I am numb
That day I have found out
I’ll never have your love
