Glass shattered a
Saturday afternoon tea ~

Silence holds steady
black fleeced momentum 
for its own ripping
when lightning as whipping 
fire from Heartbeat of
Sun slashes its Void
loudness to tumble...

An Existential Curiosity

Ambitious existent presence to yield,
Hostage that's well endured of a pre-life,
Handcuffed fallible praying to be healed,
Labyrinth attributes drudgery strife.

Redeeming shrilling lob gratis to air,
Longings bounded dreamt outpours...

Impeachment is neither a peach, a pullover nor is it a purple plum. And a sanctimonious swan is neither a swamp spinning yarn nor a spotty sporty spade. Ok then. Paste and post but not...

Life is all about family and love.

July 20, 1969, this day in history
Astronaut Neil Armstrong walked on moon, 240,000 miles
From Earth, a billion people
Listening at home:
“That’s one small step for man, one giant leap for...

there will be days like that;
when you won't need...

I have seen the "corners of the world,"
heard the songs of many languages.
I have helped bring peace from many wars,
and played with the poor children of many countries.
I have tasted the fine wines, spirits and...

Our current situation,
in the evolution of our species,
is one in which the ego has forgotten its true role in the psyche
and has usurped the role of central

Ripples once sweet     transformed into large breaking waves

Washing me away         Dragging me down
miles down into the abbyss  of an open ocean.

Drive mindfully, dear children, as you traverse hurdled highways of life,
Cognizant that adjacent to an oasis of joy, lies a desert brooding strife;
Assume charge of your chosen path, obey rules of road as you ride,
Pursuing...

Every now and then ,everyone is an island

and every now and then, I am an island too

Till,I see the first pink iris blooming in my garden

and one little bluebird singing on my porch

Till,I feel ...

We strolled hand in hand
along Naples cobbled streets
beneath nearly blown- off linen sheets
Hanging  from old  balconies.

Street musicians played their bagpipes
ciaramellas,mandarins
In this southern bustling city
where the crowd will never sleep.

Blessed by silent moments
in Duomo...

So easy to remember ,So hard to forget
A kiss within the stars,through eyes of love once met.

Softly spoken voices still whisper in the wind
As gentle as a river-flow, as warm as a hot- spring.
The musky...

He was howling at the moon,
it was mid June's heyday, she
was naive beyond reproach
her innocently lit chiaroscuro 
made him hunger all the more,
til one day she let down her guard
'neath an impatient violaceous sky
drinking effervescently...

She's a tiny floweret

between buds and orchid blooms

She's a beauty pouring  perfume

in light shades of lilac hues

She's a fearless butterfly

A winged vision in the sky

that soars,that flutters by

Spreading spring dew in my life .

She's...

How can I smile 

when my friend is ill

What kind of friend would I be

if I do not miss her

But miss her I do,

Yesterday,I opened the card

She've sent me

I read it,over and over again

Her words...

Love is everyday,everywhere,anytime I whisper sweet secrets in your ear

It is not wanting to be anywhere without you not being there

Love is more than a feeling ,where emotion is only a companion

It is a repeated...

Of all the breeze that just passed by me,
Of all the wind that touched my knees.
I remember the days of the olden scrapes,
Of all the exuberant but dull etches.
A window and the express called for...

A falling star met butter fingers, 
  kissed the pavement rain, 
scorched threadbare pocket cloth, 
  dream vapour in the wet. 
Dark smoke was all it brought

Blacked Heart


Within the blackness blissed lies the love that has been missed
For within the miasma mist a darkish deprived heart does resist
Of the silenced sounds heard escapes a lonely wounded word
Of the slumbered souls spurred...

Tales and gales come during summer leaves
Still yet the cold wind blows without warning
Flitting between rightly adorning 
Wondering the heart continually grieves
Ashes and dust the head is shorned
Grinning through the teardrop mile she sees
Pains of...

When I finish the row and
yonder my soul is invited-
for my casket will they lay beneath-
I'll take with me desire.

On the top unseen
where we rule the fate of men,
I'll despise my present state;
O that I...
