Fighting in The Firmament
In the dismal and dreary dusk,
I experience horrific hallucinations,
Of cracks in the sublime skies.
Celestial conflicts commence
Without a hint or reason.
Comets collide, stars flare
In nasty noxious Novas.
Quakes seem to shatter the peace
Of the vast stretch of space.
Whilst we on Earth envision
The fall of a multitude of meteors.
Catastrophic clouds form overhead,
Effectively hiding the brutal battles galore.
Then

Beneath the stretched-out, nocturnal firmament, thoughts overwhelm my being
Beneath the stretched-out, nocturnal firmament, thoughts overwhelm my being,
Questions unassuaged by answers, echo of the void,
About forests of the future, trees with waiting roots,
About children from untold dreams, with smiles that cannot be found.
Those books with pages lamenting for the ink's caress,
How they remain closed in the drawers of oblivion, begun and never finished,
Phantoms of

Without Love, Sine Amore
Without love
We are nothing
And we have nothing
When we have love
We have everything
And that’s something.
Where there’s no love
Reign total chaos, crimes, division
Havoc, death, and destruction
With true love
Doves and peacocks fly above
The firmament is light and blue
Everything is beautiful and new
Without love
We have nothing
And we are nothing.

Under the Firmament
Under the firmament
Vying to escape the dome of purgatory
A trap which seems permanent
Filled with negative energy and pain
Stuck on a plain
That plays tricks on the brain
Driving souls insane
Desensitized to such evil ways
The supreme comglomerate of capitalism has free reign
Its bi product swiftly divides humanity
Corrupting those who

My Beautiful Ada
Here comes my beautiful Ada!
The flower of my youth
Elegant and sure footed
Poised to conquer the world
A gazelle of inestimable beauty
Resilient and full of
Joie de vivre and open heartedness
Ada no one is like you
And no one can ever be like you
You are beautifully and wonderfully made
Rise and lighten up global
Entertainment firmament

The Blue Sky
The blue sky is not heaven
It's not the same thing at all
Dear friends.
We often speak of the firmament of yesteryear
By day, the sky is dazzling like an etiolated flower
Dear friends.
Defying gravity is to soar into the heavens
Where at night, stars and asteroids are numerous
It's the dream, it's imaginary impulses
Where we are stunned, amazed and silent.
We

Contentment Under This Firmament
Money when is greedily accumulated
Even though prosperity is created
We fail to enjoy the presence of it
We may not celebrate it even a bit
That attitude will grow like forest-fire
We may not stop firmly that desire
As our heart, greed will dominate
Our mind, desire will contaminate
Acquisition of money is a bad illness
It must be monitored with carefulness
When we

Verdict of Firmament
VERDICT OF FIRMAMENT
Firmament addressed clouds asking
not to assemble in platoon
and alarmed aggressive adamant arrogant tempest
not to be tempted to attack,
but allowing welcoming gentle zephyr to blow.
Ablaze Sun got astonished but felt ashamed.

Firmament Radiance
Firmament radiates with celebration glow
midst sparkling kaleidoscope whisking vibrant cheer
lights leaping, lilting, skipping in whirling flow
like flowers blooming above unfold fireworks clear.
Midst sparkling kaleidoscope whisking vibrant cheer
bursting brilliantly as tints and hues of gems’ flare
like flowers blooming above unfold fireworks clear
praising God for His goodness*, wafting festive air.
Bursting brilliantly as tints and hues of gems’

Flying Friends In the Firmament
In the midst of a quiet summer day, while the sun is peeping
And the gentle breeze brushing everything, dancing and passing
Our hero, an ant, seen sweating and puffing, but still climbing
Like a soldier on mission, to the top of a Mulberry tree.
Being a mere working class, under a stern mighty queen
Never achieved anything big, as
