This unhappy man, that was me, was always sad and lonely like a dry log in green forest. I woke up one morning, more dejected than the morning before, threw away the flower-embossed curtains off...

In The Shadow Of Silence


Trudging on the indolent deserted pathway
the fragile footprints collapse in the sands of time,
the cadence of music dissolves in mirage, 
life’s unsung tunes fade away in sorrow.

In the trembling spine of the parched shadows
hungry predators...

Now That We Are Here

It’s not our choice where we would be,
but now that we are here
as an actor performing at the wish of God, 
let’s give life the chance to be fulfilled,
and in its fold, make us a...

This unhappy man in the midst of opulence, 
lived like a discolored pale precious stone
in a box of rare jewels, and was always sad,
like a dry wood in the lush verdant forest.

Consumed Life's Winter Frame

Frozen sky and frost fastened ground
In the mystique mask of departing light 
They meet in the abode of those departed. 
The identities dissolve in inseparable oneness 
Bringing together in seamless proximity
The living and the dead
In...

A Tree Walks To the Concrete Forest

On a frosty opaque day in windy winter 
I, an old defoliated tree denied the sky and the soil 
by the young aggressive ones spreading branches,
walk out of the green forest in sheer desperation. 

Crossing...

The Painter


Lure of mirage
in deranged dunes,
dances in
dandelion rhythm 
with oasis dream,
illusion inscribed
in sane sands of time,
sliding continuum
with desiccated travail, 
thirst unquenched,
stimulus sensuous,
perpetual.

Dormant despair
usurps harps of hope,
vibrato dissipates
unperceived,
wisdom shroud  
unfurls crafty chimera
in life of actuality,
awareness avid,...

“When the birds leave the nest to fly in another sky, 
the feathers they leave become memory” - Quote by Poet

kept it warm in the...

Not Forgotten

life taken so suddenly... and painfully so,
no time to satisfy desires of togetherness.
happiness to unexpected fear, emotions flow...
remorse , love , compassion, desolateness.

her words haunt my memory , " i never thought
this year would come...

Dreamscape In Moon

From the edge of the ebon night sky,
under the engulfing clouds of gloom,
the promise of moon I’ve made to you,
I’ll keep before the eclipse starts.

The somber storm of smothering strife 
drifts me away across the...

The Party Doesn'T End

The effervescence of the party doesn’t seem to abate, 
even when the guests leave one by one, 
the psychedelic lights dissolve within fading melody, 
the rolling ripples of air clutch the last rhythm. 

The dark...

The Cleansing

It is as if the fire had burned everything
My transition back to where I began
Before I became an ordinary man
Before memories were made, and all my life
Became a museum of a past I could not...

The Beholder


Lure of mirage
in deranged dunes,

Dormant despair
usurps harps of hope,
vibrato dissipates
unperceived,
wisdom shroud  
unfurls crafty chimera
in life of actuality,
awareness imbibed.

Amid the Jagged Shadows

" Amid the jagged shadows of mossy leafless boughs"
  - Samuel Taylor Coleridge

Gold tinged paints dripped from the air,
under the clear opalescent autumn sky,
jade foliage turned to full-bloom flower,
I flew my heart like a...

Serrated Shadow

Golden paint drips from diaphanous air,
beneath the opalescent autumn blue sky,
jade foliage enfolds full-bloomed flowers,
I fly my heart like a bird over the canopy.

The canopy of your allure so beguiling
takes me to the enticing height...

Not Forgotten

Blow away the morning dew
And clear off the heaviness of summer wetness
Times gone are gaunt, your heart is weary
Unbeat the drums of your sordid story
Emancipate your innocent soul
From this spectral link with old life
You are...

Her Sounds of Endured Silence

Hold your ear on the verge of the moment…
Listen as her eyelashes wisp the air closing
Hear tears filling and clouding her perceptions
Hearkening out as they surge a burning roll
Give an ear to the silence ricocheting...

Am I Alive

Trudging alone on the indolent desert dunes
fragile footprints collapse and the sands flow
on cadence of mirage music, life’s unsung tunes
fades away slow.

In the trembling spine of my parched shadow
hungry predators burrow harrowing dark hole,
as dry...

Caution

The litter of chatter
On air pitter patter
Like the Galean on water:
The other one without the power
There is a desolateness here
Borders broken
By the commerce of men
Restructured by the twitter
Bringing anomie from the bitter
Knowing of self without...

The Trail of Total Truth

Almighty always assures equal attention to all from above,
bestowing benign benevolence brimming with boundless bliss,
His bountiful benediction blossoms in my beguiled soul.
When tormenting times take the toll on my toiling life,
I hasten to harbor His...
