In the diaphanous light of morning, when dawn paints the horizon with golden whispers
In the diaphanous light of morning, when dawn paints the horizon with golden whispers,
The earth rises from its deep slumber, dreaming of the green phantoms of revival,
An untamed longing is born deep in my chest, like a firebird spreading its wings,
A burning thirst to embrace the world, like a river flowing towards the endless ocean

Diaphanous Dichotomy
A rainbow or counterflow … symmetry,
Time marks a question measured to wrangle,
Quantity taxes or pay quality.
First, the chick or egg, begs the novelty,
Harmony and anarchy vie tango,
A rainbow or counterflow … symmetry.
Highs and lows, trials on trails that Odyssey,
Couples meet ... kneels, and fingers … betrothal,
Quantity taxes or pay quality.
Germane proportionate necessity,
Bidders will empowerment substantial,
A

Beneath the diaphanous vault where shadow and humanity dissolve
Beneath the diaphanous vault where shadow and humanity dissolve,
The fabric of nature unravels into an inscrutable residue of secrets,
Far from the world’s gaze, in the salt of the wilderness, a different essence is born,
Even bare sterility embraces the enigma that deceives and soothes us.
From the illusion of light-years, a whiff of earth mixed with saffron,
Nature

The Diaphanous Dance
Written: June 26, 2023
______________________________________________________________
In a world adorned with colors so bright,
Where dreams and reality ignite,
A tale unfolds that is enchanting and rare.
Of a maiden draped in a diaphanous affair.
Her skirt, a tapestry of bold, floral-printed art,
Dancing with grace, right from the start.
Diaphanous layers, floating with ease,
Caressing her legs, as if to tease.
Illuminated only by the

Diaphanous Lover
He comes in dreams as an eclipse,
to kiss my flushed cheeks and ruby lips.

Poet's Spectre, My Ghosts Are Not Diaphanous
Beauty that is mirrored is that beauty?
Absent love leads phantom duty
My running pen speaks not so bright
In its ink hide ghosts by night
It’s intimate with willing paper
White bond drinks up all black vapor
The curves, the contours, strokes—I gape!
Appear in spectral words of shape
And whisper sounds from verse I fashion
But lacking substance, wraith-like passion
Attempts the work

A Most Diaphanous Seed
Occasionally heaven shoots meteorites
Some of them fall on gutters and drains
Without knowing among those some are
More precious than diamond and gold
After misjudging it as a worthless piece
Once you threw a most diaphanous seed
On her beck a bird carried it to a distant land
Being germinated, well deep it sent

Diaphanous Dreams
diaphanous dreams call me tonight,
summon all the Angels to guide me...
can we find the voices of children
crying in the night?
in far away lands
....and here at home
slow the rivers of tears
for just one night!
whisper in ears of many leaders-
are they listening?
we must try tonight!
summon all the Angels to guide me...
encourage the wisdom of all
living spirits to
