Incognita Poems - Poems about Incognita

Terra Incognita Hidden! Uncharted eternity birthing Roiling! In a slow dance The pregnant pause of terra’s faults Breaks o p e n In slip strikes Earth’s fiery magma Spit back into the hands of Heaven’s potter Churning! Moody Mercurial Footprint on the landscape’s soul Journey to epiphany and nature’s improvisation New land birthed Uncharted steamy...

He had a dream in the still of the night, Someone beckoned on him, Someone implored him to come, He looked distressed and troubled. He was worried He knew it was an urgent plea, But it was a place no one had ever been, It was a place shrouded in mystery. Many had tried to go, Many as such who was entreated to...

Peering beyond reach of human capacity I revolve around the sun in a solar orbit, Looking deep in space for origins of bygone Going way beyond anyone has ever gone, Exploring unknown world of astronomy Searching light from first stars and galaxies Traversing back in time where it all began, Forming our universe after the Big-Bang. Some 13.6 billion light-years my eyes reach, Studying...

*Image of Pelosi Leaves Taipei by BBC. Terra Incognita Diurnal moments margin in my head, As metamorphosis pirouettes hands, Nightmarish recall exit none be said, An armistice mosey in of spilt sands. Logjam beliefs wane gains, prosperity, Erring hand fingered an island nation, Right foresees windfall, voters clarity, Left wins Red China, lost the election. Past oversights also recent letdowns, Amiss twentieth, twenty-first embed, Ruse an angle...

I heard of lands both far and near where wealth beyond tale can conceive. With rivers deep and mountains sheer for the brave to challenge and reave. I heard of them and I believe this call that moves me to explore. I should follow my heart and weave the path where none has gone before. Through legends spread by foe and peer, my...

I know well of a cat's ear, eye, nose, teeth, coat, paws and claws, Do I know, what's behind its look and mysterious pause? I know a dog's acute sense of smell; muscles and fingers, Do I know what's going-on when he quietly lingers? I see my neighbor-child stand exuberantly leaping, I stand in awe, when, within seconds, I see...

The emerald forest uniquely so mystique, as far as I can see beyond the horizon, shrouded by surreal stillness it spreads, wraps me as I amble in rippling breeze. Its charming cadence enthralls my essence suffused with rhapsody. As I walk on the fading forest path around the shadows of ancient trees, the clumps...

In my dream, I sailed away Over the tame waters of a tranquil bay And landed in a magic isle Never set foot before by anyone alive A pleasant retreat of birds and beasts Far removed from world’s dust and heat A terra incognita with a magic spell Hidden away at Nature’s veiled breast The sky was rent with songs of birds The air,...

I didn’t listen to his words Even though, in my heart, I heard When he told me I was a hypocrite I found myself praying for God’s intervention For the assurance that I wasn’t being A hypocrite – a fraud, a phony I wasn’t someone who was just pretending To love the Savior, my whole world The answer to my every anxiousness The reason...

My reefs look dazzling in the dawn light. A sea of hypocrisy and lies that we must fight. They are held to what they are allowed to view, And yield when they grip their identity and hue. I can hear sighing while I'm still close firmly, Millennia ago, by beings apt to live eternally. I can feel their vicinity and smell...

So strange this land, old and yet young. Where is this place of tall green trees, and grey-haired men in unknown tongue? they must have traveled summer's breeze. Adobe brick quonset "chalets" mud-soaked roadways in all the blocks. WACs and wives and waifs everyday midst hollyhocks and four o'clocks. Los Alamos*, this place must be. A land of Oz 'neath bluest sky. Where science dealt...

Far beyond the reaches of the Milky Way A galaxy exists which remains unnamed Unseen by human eye or large telescope, It is, to my knowledge, not yet defamed. Pure and undefiled, suitable for living In a Goldilocks zone yet to be uncovered Fresh clean air, and an abundance of water, Awaiting its coordinates to be discovered. A terra incognita resembling heaven Is just...

Cave of our heart, virgin and unexplored, invites us to go in within, relinquishing both thought and senses five, that our soul’s journey may begin. No sooner we so choose, without excuse, magnetic currents engulf form, bestowing God’s gift of rapturous bliss; caress divine, tender touch warm. We cognise the dance of polarities, driven by soul’s yearning to feel pangs of separation and then union, in...
