I Feared That Soon the Snow Would Leave
I feared that soon the snow would leave,
As I watched the melting wreaths give way,
To the hand of time, come now to press,
The passing of my holiday...
Where the ghosts of Christmas just now past,
Their laughter...

Dramatic Monologue
Lost, Without Hope
Everywhere I look, all I see is nothing
A vast space full of water, the current pulling me out to nowhere
Kicking and screaming I’m trying to stay above the wild waves
But the crash and smash against...

Wave of Fantasy
Me again:
Blue parrots screech hawkers off the streets
Where rats and mobile devices scream
Insults into the ears of the sewars.
Whiskers and teardrops and plops of fun
Which dangle relentlessly above the
Green shoreline.
Playing musical pillows at sinister
Dinner...

THE BREAKFAST OF SCANDAL
Once upon a lofty testament
The blue print of a rhapsodic love furls
Among the two betrothed by a mutual affection.
Their love echoes and here to stay and born.
Their twin love...

Goldberg Variations
Whirling through torpedoes of sound,
spinning and tailing its way like Raphael to earth,
shoots some uninstantaneous ether:
the impermeable myelin of true experience.
The soul—the richest treasure chest ever found;
creating, disseminating, revealing, glimmering, alluring.
Rawest sense material pinging in...

The Jaywalker
The city has evacuated the streets at this hour,
and vacancy has given his unsteady feet
right of way at every intersection.
The traffic lights, sticklers for rules, continue
color-coding priorities for non-existent movements,
frowning...

A Shell Tells
A whelk shell on the bathroom windowsill
reflects modest colours curled twirled around
its helix. It takes me back to where I found
this gastropod with others dumped as spoil
over a bank behind a coastal shed.
In the waste...

Capture the Lesson
With your dad idling in a box stand for huge bucks.
Over time, you're fled with mates, proving plucks.
After all, swiftly, your kids start engaging in sport.
Over the eager mass, they may trap your caring snort.

The Shape of Things To Come
You want shape?
Some imagined description of my curves and bumps
that twist and turn after breakfast and lunch crunch;
flat stomach, erect neck and back
aged slides away from the bodies track
and the six pack abs...

The Dancer Swirls
Dancing with vigour the dancer swirls
Sweat glistening, passions inside rose
Catching shadows as within skirt furls
Around my heart as locks you impose
Sweat glistening, passions inside rose
Fixation befalls, this beleaguered soul
Around my heart as...

Ages Are the Pages of Time
Wrinkles, dark circles beneath the eyes
furls across the brow
embedded overlapped dimples deep in the chin.
When and how
did this face and body age
so quick before its time?
Just yesterday...

Dream Stitcher
In sand dune deserts, fresh fountains spring;
Delicate cactus dance in mangrove-lit streams;
Lush green leaves in breeze graciously swing,
And a poet stiches stars, on soft skin of beams.
In snow-frozen fields, merrily marigolds smile;
Sun prolongs his shift...

Brake Lights
Riding a great dragon’s tail through the soaking wet darkness of the early morning,
Red,
Tails and tails of red bending through the breathing stone as I inch closer to the labour camp,
Closer and closer to...

The Burning Black Dragon
The moon rises to see nothing
Everything empty, with only the wind left
Desolate despair reaches into an eternity
Vanquished 'till death they part in the shadows
The stench of death billows and furls
Suffocating like a blinding fog
Rolling in...

A Better Tomorrow
A golden sun I yearn to see t'morrow
That’s never, ever dawn in my life-time;
The crows will caw with its first-ever glow,
And wrens will timely chime a welcome rhyme.
The sun will brightly dawn with...

Bottomless Depth
Deeper than the Pacific Ocean's Mariana Trench,
Bottomless curls, furls, swirls, and whirlpools of thoughts and feelings;
Thoughts go deeper than the Challenger Deep that does entrench -
Designs and adorns the inner core of the...

Firefly Tango
Firefly tango, lighting up the meadow
Whizzes, whirls, flits, and furls,
The little varmints buzz around,
Unaware we are watching their every move.
We older folks are no longer chasing them
or popping them in Mason Jars

Abide, not forgetting their first...

The Man With the Unflappable Flappers
I once met a man with ears so large
That “Dumbo the Elephant” had less by far.
Protruding outward from his head to the sky
Way up to the clouds where the birds did fly
Landing upon his outstretched...

Symphony of the Sunrise
Murmuring melody mesmerises the dawn.
Colours, like disco lights, elegantly branch out.
Crows, sparrows, robins, and parrots camp on my lawn.
Between harp, lute, sitar, and guitar, there's a doubt.
Is there, amidst the clouds, a lava eruption?
A cloudburst...

Saboteur
Gleeful roses turn to sullen churls,
And virgin smiles of shyest brides
Soonest morph into widowed furls;
Sad victims of your ill-bladed tides.
Swearing lovers of staunchest troth
Must sample your bitterest swill too,
And forfeit bonds of grandest worth,
As...
