Long Coastlines Poems

'Continental Drift' - The Metaphor

In the seventies (1), few people dreamed ‘it’ was true,
guessed by scientists first when rough coastlines compared (2)
matched like parts of a puzzle (a jigsaw), found place
that joined ‘drop-offs’ waves hid...

I took the only seed of hope
for any future healthy Truffula Trees,
but reminded my clinically depressed acquaintance
we are all born co-redeemers,
not addictively incubating extractors.

Ours is not to commodify 
what we did not recreate
for its sufficient...

Blessed with inestimable reservoirs 
Countless traps sealing gas yet untouched 
Seated on wealth beyond its numbers

Plants that are entirely different 

“From the flora on our island 
Or from the adjacent mainland 
This can...

Five miles of neatly spaced suckered palm planted 
Bustling promenade,
Not withstanding a provincial cafe-culture 
Of restaurants and exciting little bars,
Enhance upon regal elegance of the crammed hotels
Regency period style facades;
Their fashionable shadows slowly lifting and...

Brutus Iulius Trois Page 06

The defeated Pandrasus spoke out
his weary words weighted with wisdom.

You are my beacon in the darkness
the bulwark and seawall which protect my shore
the lamp which pierces the stormy waters
that surround me
I navigate the deep with the course you set for me

Quixotic quest quiddity
As dusk sapidity emerges,

Our Day Out

Our day out to Wales in the Summer of 1981
In car temperature soars that alike to Lebanon,
Not like the previous year of 1980
When temperatures where more akin to Haiti.

Fractals.

Spawn of iterating quadratic functions.  
Choreographers of cosmic conjunctions.
Impervious to human dysfunctions.

Makers of multiverses.  Encoders of creations.   
Limited only by imaginations.

Recursive.  Coercive.  Immensely immersive.
Purveyors of poetic creative cursive.

With formative...

Here it is...a beautiful story about us....
 
The theme of us has been
written about for ages.

To survive,
Different kinds of battles
But battles none the...

" The nature beds & water

Just take a moment and breathe
Listen to the silence
Reflect on a sweet dream
Laugh, smile, whisper into the light
Joys and freedoms, inspirations
That heal and fulfill

Just take a moment and breathe
