A Lifetime
We blindly traverse life’s vicissitudes, Upheavals and harmony An odyssey in search of love, Beauty, truth and happiness Lamented in moments of sorrow Euphoric in joyous bliss Recorded in hours, days and years Till hands of death bring to cease....

Autumn's Bittersweet Symphony
In Autumn's grasp, I find my soul's lament, Where leaves, like tears, in golden hues descend, Brave muse, traverse this wonderous land, unbent, Where melancholy whispers through each bend. The stardust dawn, a promise yet untold, A fleeting kiss of warmth in the chill air, But as the day unfolds, the truth unfolds, The fading light, a burden hard to bear. The leaves,...

Premium Member Tomorrow's Surprise
What's on the menu tomorrow? Great joy or maybe great sorrow. It could be something in between, Even something I've never seen. Life will seldom give any clues, Some people win and others lose. Some are willing to take a chance, Others rely on happenstance. Wouldn't it be better to know? Wouldn't it help to make me grow? Is it something already planned? Maybe I'll never...

Joy Or Sorrow, Let Your Hope Grow
Joy and sorrow will alternate in our life, The duration may vary, but they will arrive, But, both will never at all be permanent, Never rejoice too much over any pleasure, As a sorrow will follow it as per destiny, Again over sorrow feel not at all dejected, As its duration will be surely only temporary, Life is an uncertain journey for...

Premium Member I Wandered Lonely As My Life
I wandered lonely as my life Conspired with my coming death Wrapped in the cone of joy and strife I cherished every passing breath. Touched the hem of nature’s beauty Did what I could because I can. Marched to cadence, did my duty Life altering my every plan. Shed the tears of joys and sorrows Watched as life’s moments passed away Lived through all today’s...

Your Joy Or Sorrow, Let None Know
Let your joy be a top secret, As none will spread red carpet, In fact, they will deeply regret, Curses from them, you will get. Let your sorrow be hidden, None will bear that burden, If exposing it is by you done, Weeds will grow in life-garden. Your joy makes none enjoy, Instead, their mind, you annoy, Your joy, they will try to destroy, Even, mean...

Carl Sandburg Precious, this life is, so swift and so fleeting, wrapped in enigma, like an onion you peel. It offers itself to the one who is willing to weather the layers, at a time unrevealed. And sometimes your laughing is turned into weeping, but then, midst the darkness, joy noisily squeals. ————— For the Keola Secret KA-CHING Poetry Contest Sponsored by Hilo Poet 03/08/2022 Rhyme...
