A Gift in Evergreen

 Through cedar, pine and redwood
Until it pokes its hatless head
 In the fog washed air to breath
The perfume of the crest.

A special day dawns for...

And admit we are meant for each...

And came knockin' on your door

Maybe Winter's comin' soon
Summer's gone and gone to stay
Am I bound to be alone

The splendor of blossoming flower,
in the petals of the unfurling buds it lies,
as the spring’s sweet scent shower
saturates the latticed wings of butterflies.
Their charm surrounds the frame of charisma,
I see suspended on the wall,
and while...

Life is like a rippling stream that constantly is flowing
You’re just a bubble in that stream not knowing where you’re going
Twists and turns come suddenly and catch you unaware
But you ride upon the current; the...

When dawn's blush of light eclipses the moon
And afternoons find meadows sprinkled with dew
When I view willows smiling instead of weeping
And the keeping of promises is no longer a prize
When artist's eyes see only hues...

and the bubbly breeze blows a heated winter sonata,
the giant roses of clouds are teased, they shed

My love cars





My first rendezvous 
was Honda Civic iVtec
black automatic,
1799 cc, 4 cylinders 
130 bhp, torque 172Nm,
Stole my heart 
speed bound no limits,
Left me for a new owner.

Shunning loneliness,
Magnetised by 
his macho shape 
and pearl...

When on the hearth~strike
Then blaze

Warmth flowed throughout like
Happiness 'pon trike
Young days

Just dreams

Down by waterways
Where God I could praise
Fish teem 

As 'pon stream...

Soft warm eyes

Of love in all you do

And I won’t expect from you anything less,
Just start the peace and end this mess,

I realize my own, my own foolish...
