Leaders come and leaders go
Repeating the show of long...

Headless Tree

I lie on a giant rock in the middle of the river bed
staring at the tree without a head
Dry stump shooting above me
Inviting one another into  their bed
Their nude bodies pressing against each other
hugging...

The Nature's Child

THE NATURE’S CHILD!

Defying fate, freedom denied,
Confined within the four-walled cage,
Safeguarded from the Autumn wind and sun,
Shining bright beyond my reach!

The scriptures decide the societal pace,
The learned men clench the reins,
At the altar of the parochial...

I gently beckon inspiration
for dalliance with mother tongue
English Language, each

familiar to yours truly symbolized
by panoply, sans twenty six letters,

whereby this patient scrivener

nee burst of creativity

An Answer For Maurice

Five thousand years or more ago
A man, in peace, lived with his wife
But then, her father passed away
And thus began the days of strife.

They built a room and moved her in;
She quickly overran their space.
He,...

Romeo and Juliet-Prologue Too

ROMEO AND JULIET – PROLOGUE TOO


The Montagues and Capulets never saw eye-to-eye.
A feud so deep, eventually, someone had to die.
At loggerheads for decades (no-one remembered the reason)
To fraternise together would be an act of treason.
They’ve...

The Two Unlike-Pole Analogy

THE TWO UNLIKE-POLE ANALOGY 

Analogically, this simplicity of poles might communicates 
extensive comparison of things life usually complicate. 
Just as the tale of "magno magnets", 
Like-poles repulsively repels even off a border 
and unlike-poles abnormally...

She said her name was Amahle

Mere gaze to her direction, goosebumps perforates my skin
There's something out of this cosmos in her aura.

The Mentor

How was it that I knew so little?
Your constant admonishments seemed so brittle.
But, as time progressed from day to day
I began to realize, that was just your way.

You taught me things I knew not

On Everest

I stand on top of world. I’ve won!
I’m a statue frozen solid -
On tippy-toes I’ve reached the sun.

I took a showering from cloud.
I’m bitten up with frosty snow.
Too late for me to brag out loud.

The Defeated

Mates at loggerheads to blow the intensity
a spirited fight from determined hearts quite quarrelsome
there’s always a plan, a track to follow
dying minutes give both sides reasons to fluster
one is exalted, the other temporarily doomed

I Love You

Magnitude, the depth of sleeping oceans 
where bright eyed creatures, unseen by 
man, prisoners of prehistory, 
denizens of deep emotions, 
swim a primeval mystery 
unsolved and undefined.

Sometimes they caper crazed and blind, 
lashing with trident...

Turtle Mania

Leatherback, murray river, matama
Hawksbill, common musk and spiny soft shell.
Loggerhead, Atlantic green, alligator snapping
Turtles are we, in every country we dwell.

The largest sea turtle reaches eight hundred pounds.
A leatherback whose love for jellyfish abounds.

Inherently Good

Being human there is the stronger urge
That inborn desire towards good
Or the diversion towards badness
Our innate inborn capacity for good
Equals our divergence towards badness 

The Lord searches the souls of men
Examining intent and purpose
