Rhythmically swaying in the wind
Like lazy ocean wave stretches

I'd find solace in the simple, in the status quo.
If tomorrow was...

For Dinna From Danmark
Dinna of Denmark

Walking in your well worn sandals
Down the dirty Via Dolorosa
Clutching your stuffed Lion Toy
Swinging your bag

Pencil crayons and poems
Fairy stories conjured
In your...

A motherless child cries in the still
My home, a deserted paradise
Where birds wail for...

There is still the light of love inside the room,
Peering through pinholes, our professor, for twenty- four

Oh, Christmas Tree
An unusual thing occurred at our house Christmas Eve.
It caused us anger, it was enough to make us grieve.
We waited to the last minute for a live Christmas tree:

The Bow That Bridges Heaven
He wrangled with his world, found a way to cross the seas
on merchant boats brimful of slaves, bound for British shores.

And bright was the thunder fierce,
Swept the winds the landscape
And leapt the lightning on the sky
Like wildfires dancing in a forest.
Such was the nature's thrill furious
That doomed...

Devil Feeders From Elysium
A celebration was held by the Angels,
Heavenward late yesterday night.
And hide from the moon spirit labels,
Eyes staring in the twilight as first light.
They needed to escape animosity,
And stay away from bitter anger.
They took a dim...

Do Dreams Glitter Or Remain Dull
Touching your skin glimmering with the subdued glow
of the August moonlight suggests
that every delusive dream seems real;
if dreams don't have the glitter of stars,
one might as well close his dreamy eyes
and be carried into that...

No Cuddles In Shadow
Written: October 09, 2023

No promise that it will ever reach the zenith.

Unpredictable, akin to the whims of fate.

My Muse Erato
Whenever a Melancholy Moon,
Radiantly brimful, looms low,
And gilds the tops of the trees,
The hills, the flowing streams,
and languorously reclining lakes,
