March 30th., 2018 - Another day sets in Paris

The home-bound Octogenarian trundles from the Mall's town centre
Back laden with the day's shopping
His hands numb from clutching load-packed plastic bags during the...

on summer nights she cupped love in her heart
tasted the honey of a gentle kiss
and the heat of an exotic garden,
she roamed in a rabble of wild colours, with rows of chillies

With each blow, I built my fortress strong.
Built walls to avoid battling going wrong. 
But within those walls, my torment grew.
A molten fire, consuming all I knew.

In life's menagerie, I wandered free,

Just like a germinating node,
so are the childishly preened pudenda load.
Ecstasy in fluffs of dew are bestowed
as croissants for neonate are getting bold.
 
Silky gazelle of a nymphet endowed with
sacra enshrouded in rotund paunch.
Void of...

Like old man oak is losing...

Wisdom dances from the edges
Of my amber, gilded feathers
Strength echoes through fluffs
Of warmly caressing breaths
Pouring forth from my tones
Trust, truth and tendencies
Toward a destiny of insight
Visions of all that is mystery
Whispering through the mist
Across peaks...

his whiplash stings with mighty blows
top and bottom and way down below

trapped inside it`s wrathful jaw
the bitter wind is too great to ignore
an arctic blast from...

When night’s ebony is vanquished,
the pre-dawn turns slowly into peach.
Peach becomes persimmon and pink
as scarlet starts to streak the sky..
As I breathe the snowy whiteness of the clouds,
the sun shyly peeks out from behind them.
Suddenly...

He speaks of the weather, of family and friends...
anything to fill the spaces, and I wear his

There’s trouble in the forest
Where the wolf pups play

In between the trees
Down in the holes with the predator’s prey

Brews mischief mixed with magic
Brewing for days

Vindictive little fluffs hiding in their holes
Biding their time while pups...

She floated down into the meadow quietly, silencing the air, by stilling it.
The surrounding oak trees smiled, recognizing her power, not fully
understanding her majesty, but appreciating it and loving her

The dream of the fluffy fluffs
the little Cutts of the curly cotton crafts 

Blow a bit they will fly ...
Uncontrollably fly high out of sight 
Cringing the kite 

On the November's hectic moon ...

blue fields of wild indigo
 	
chirping red robins
bobbing house wrens
 
perched high 
sing a soft lullabye

Loving You
Simple ecstasy...

Sweet tingling of bells
Sprinkling sugar icing on a rich brown chocolate cake
Ice melting in a cool mint drink on a hot summer’s day
Sizzling eggs in a frying pan
Sipping steaming coffee from my favourite...
