Premium Member Beautiful Beirut
As the moon smiles down on the sparkling Mediterranean
The gentle rolling hills
Reach bejeweled fingers into the sea
Spilling the overflow of sparkling lights
Onto fishing boats that dot the horizon
The irregular coastline, encrusted with diamonds, rubies, and...

Mysteries into mysterious
The thought just makes one curious
History having accounts within its own log
The wonders through the creation of the seas

My father and his father were Farmers. It wasn't told to me,
but I suspect that my Great Grandfather was also a Farmer.
My wife's father was also a hard-working and successful Farmer.
However, in my family line,...

We Are Not Cows To Be Slaughtered
One cow is equal to one soul;
One soul is equal to one cow 
We are all cows walking on the street,
All souls are cows the Namas said!


Kill one cow they will kill two souls,
Our grasses...

There are many cargo ships in the bay of Cascais this Monday afternoon

Even precious jewels cannot approach their value,
For the women of merit are priced beyond them.
Their beauty is found in the works of love they do,
And in their smile facing the future that is never dim.

The value of books


Late afternoon, the sun has left the terrace and is in the back throwing up dust before reluctantly slinking west and sinking 
into the sea beyond the seas.
The townscape is charming red-roofed...

Sleeping Machines
The harbor gave a dim illumination,
lampposts vaguely penetrating the dark water.
As waves like shades of wine drowned the jagged shore of stone,
I watched a fibrous complexion of steel shimmer from the water's edge.

Ships sleep, rocking...

[starboard port]

the ocean—an onyx plate predawn—
somnambulant ships preen with a swag of
warning lights

massive hulls: cargo ships, flotillas, tankers,
passenger liners loll; red lights buss
the somber slate of sky—spangled strings of 
bawdy bulbs on the riggings—pole dance
beside...

On Mulish Eardrums I Pound This Note
Before morning sun was dressed for the day, 
the white noise came and shook the darkness,
like swells swinging ships on the French Passage, 
cargo ships before the engine was pulled 
from the womb of modernization

I heard the sea gulls as the sea roared.
A great view of the Golden Gate Bridge,

Hong Kong Harbor View
Moving white neon lines,
Trace I.M. Pei’s Bank of China.
Elegant understated rhythm,
Precise and perfect.
Flowing lighted flags of cargo ships,
Behemoths of the world.
Bare bulb strings of pale yellow,
Pulsing to boat engines,
Walla wallas chugg everywhere.
Warship hurricane bows and...

Ruminate On This
She has a proclivity in being jaunty
As she looks down the asphalt way
With stunted growth of apple orchards
That blossom in the spring
They begin; they begin

A carefree end 
To what was swollen, bloated, and rotten
And wickedness...

My Boat
My boat


A small boat moving through choppy water.

Prompt from "Grief" by Raymond Carver

Some relax on cruise ships
Some transport fruit on cargo ships 
Some are fishing in trawlers
Some refugees seek asylum
Some toil...
