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...

Devils Sea

Mysteries into mysterious
The thought just makes one curious
History having accounts within its own log
The wonders through the creation of the seas
1871 was a year when cargo ships would sail through unchartered waters of LAST CHANCE...

Farmers

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,...

Looking Over Your City, Father

Looking here over at my window
At the 20th floor, Father
I see the beauty of the city
Those high scrapers standing
At the side are like mountain
Covered with concrete and glass
In front of me is the sea docked
With...

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...

When I Met My Father

When I met my Father 
There are many cargo ships in the bay of Cascais this Monday afternoon
and I thought of my father; he too had been a seafarer.
Last time I saw him I was...

The Nobility of Women of Merit

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

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...

In Flagrante Delicto

[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

Place By the Sea

I once had a special place by the sea;
A quiet get away where I loved to be;
My favorite place for God and me.

A solemn place,  most Devine
And serene, free of people for a season.

Quiet

I heard the sea gulls as the sea roared.
A great view of the Golden Gate Bridge,
as I watched the ships flow through the Gate.
After work, on early nights, I had a favorite spot.
Like the fog...

The Ocean of Dreams

The ocean of dreams 
  
The old man was still in his bed; someone said, is he dead?
No, not yet he says I dream of seagulls flying over the ocean.
Once I was a dolphin,...

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