Time tracking quickly, dwindling days now gently golden- but yielding yearnings. Fast fleeting years slide swiftly leasing lesser time for loving life. God grant me hopeful hows to still share life's remnant roses in blissfully blessed pending peace.

Hyacinths in a trance, bewitched by hysteria, Amid the shadows of a mythological eclipse. Elixir of roseate red oozing out loose progeria, In islands where the sea weeps azure breaks. Amid the shadows of a mythological eclipse, Daunting me subtly with its crimson smell. In islands where the sea weeps azure breaks, From golden dust to smooth bristly as well. Daunting me subtly...

Steeply, a mingling of the breaths occurring, With ashes of raw pearls that were burned, Preciseness is masked by contrasts of shading, Pallid and toxic myths reap the rot observed. With ashes of raw pearls that were burned, After the ecstasy spell, the disillusion dwindling, Pallid and toxic myths reap the rot observed, Is it true that we are completely...

I was hovering across a brook that echoed slump. I was inspiring a hoary praxis out of camp. The river, with its vibrant species, reflects my pain. It flows but never dwindles, unseen to our brain. Somebody is endlessly esteeming in glances to you. Living in this shining world is lenient with such subdue. You utterly reach a staggering ability that...

A group of odd birds took off from me as of late. Hovering over my sleek head, gazing persistently. I was feeling depressed and desolate. Same as a purple bit afar away on a swingletree. I swore angrily they wouldn't turn dark. Farmers no longer dread local herds.  From then on, I returned to lark. I'm excited to watch the vile birds. Soaring...

Impressed by its color I went to chase it, Taking small steps towards the direction it flew. Those white stripes on its wings seem to reflect the sun rays, The yellow border on its body was the color of sun itself. Wandering after some time, it sat on a blossom, Without being noticed, I caught its wings between my fingers. The...

As I combed your hair so fair, It glistened strawberry red, We embraced nature’s bounty Through the stories that I read Content, tranquil, restful As you laid upon your bed Crisp sheets, below your chest, I tracked your every breath Palm cross beneath your pillow, Same place it's always kept Your elegant, fine eyelashes Curtsied graceful as you slept, I took a million photographs Through the lenses of...

Apple cheeked autumn eyes bashful skies, as Yellow frocked summer says her goodbyes to fragrant Earth's seeded spring, to wild bouquets Arranged by careless care, for the Roses and daffodils to compare Dandelion sprinkles of buoyant cheer on Windswept wishes from children's magic, landing In water lilies and long looping lanes, woven in Nests of chirping, fragile hope Delicate shadows of feather and wing Lingering...

Assured by the Almighty’s grace abounding… Yearning for contentment is settled today and yon Exuding hope, expressing bright future’s expectation Affirming moving-on pursuits toward aspiration-ascent Reminding good days ahead with revival replenishment. Despite threatening dearth causing despair Whispering angst, obscuring wishes with worries Indefatigable spirit overcomes inconveniences Never surrendering; advancing nonetheless Depending on God, the sovereign Defender Learning life lessons while liberated by His love Illumined...

A Year set stained by grief from invisible foe, Enraged in anxiety’s malicious chains. Accosting not only a nation but world, Reaching the farthest, secluded parts, Devilishly leaving no stone unturned. Withholding grandpa from grandson, Idly stripping people’s livelihoods, Needlessly voiding human liberties, Disabling dictators from their seats. Looking now, I see chains now fastened to skin, New normals of ill compensation. Grief that forms the setting of...

A turn and tilt from earth to sun Your hot desire for summer fun Eases into autumn’s tempering mood A mellow scene of colorful cool Restful, contemplative soothe. Dangling leaves restless to descend With bright flare, a path to transcend In metamorphosis from living to dying Needing a break from ever striving Decomposing after its release Life’s dizzy cycle, thus to...
