Indelible Memories of Sokoto

In Northern lands, where memories reside,
A tale of communal living, forever to abide.
Among the indigent, a unique bond takes hold,
Rich and poor entwined, young and old.

On mats, they gather, a symbol of equality's might,
Before God, no segregation, just love shining bright.
Sokoto's atmosphere, a haven for strangers to roam,
A place where hearts are open, and love

INDELIBLE
They waft across the ocean top as loose and separate notions leaving naught but hollow caverns where my intellect once dwelled. 
I set them free with Spring's crisp breeze the day I guzzled potion 
Now they meld into the casserole and join waves as they swell. 
You hand picked Mother Nature's best for which I'm

Indelible Impressions

Memorial Day picnic by the lake, listening to the baseball game
    Thanksgiving, an indoor feast, screen tuned to the football game

  'I guess Thanksgiving is more important than Memorial Day'
    volunteered my perspicacious youngest son

Indelible

We all possess this innate urge to leave our mark:
sculptors grasp the chisel;
a dog raises its leg.
Uncertain is the way - the night is dark.
Passions often fizzle.
Both fertile and futile describe an egg.

What is the force that drives this existential urge?
Answers surely varied
as whorls within a print,
and so we race to beat that mournful dirge.
Haunted,

Sands in her hand
     trickle as she closes
        her palm to grip them;
She tries to clinch
    every grain that flows
         for it holds memories
of heartbeats~
      indelible in her

The Indelible

Far, a widowed mother walked hill and vale,
Searching her only son who'd gone to war;
Love-blind; hopeful; day and night without fail,
Heart-aches; foot-blisters; full of scar and soar;
Stones pricking; thorns piercing; miles many tread,
The scorching sun and wild waves she withstood;
Sad! No trace of son's footprints, tears she shed,
Each bird, each flower on her way she

Moments Indelible

She had read it
She had confessed,
She envied it-
“Moments”.
She wanted with herself
‘Longer and better'.
None of us knew
How and where 
Our relationship was heading.
We did get our time together
Our private moments
Still past 'moments' 
Remained, just like that lingerie 
Which refuses to be shed,
Till, that fantastic meeting
That day…..
All inhibitions broken
Not just two bodies, but
Two minds, two hearts
And two

The Indelible Memories of Italy

There are places and events
that are unerasable from memory,
such are the indelible memories of Italy;
no other country was given more
beauty than my Motherland
created by God's artistic hand:
the majestic snow-capped Alps,
the pristine shore washed by rolling waves...
these all tune into Nature's song of harmony
which praises her forevermore!

This wonderful land was chosen for her fertility,
huge fields of

every detail
        etched
deep 
       upon 
              my memory

a forever experience...

still
smitten by her

               smile

Indelible Parting

Should I wear myself off in tears?
Should I get myself lost with beer?
Should I dare consult the seers 
for the loss of a comely dear?

Can I live onwards with this fear
that your voice I may no longer hear?
Will our friendship be just mere
now that you're no longer near?

My tears flow because it cannot stand 
when

Or Did I Mean Indelible

I am 10p away from sitting outside
the station wrapped in a sleeping bag
The only good thing about the company
that uses me
is the customers and friends i meet
but some of them are
Pricks up your ears
Longing for the sound
as foot hits ground
and home ifs found
i am inedible
or did i mean indelible
Wasting my time with time
Put your finger

Indelible Ink - Tattooist Needs a Hearing Check

How romantic of my sweet Albert
Wants tattoo with my name; he’s no flirt
Alb requested a rose
Tattoo inked - a red nose
Alb’s irate kicking him where it hurt!

Indelible

She was never the person i thought she was
changing me everyday
with a smile unexplained
a tear tempered sunlight 
a chuckle swallowed
but i am trying to be the person that she sees
i can be
Waiting for the next life and to find her once again 
counting the minutes without her
poisons the minutes within her
Forgiveness held in finger tips
stretched
