Sing oh Hummingbird Sing
Sing that beautiful love song so melodiously
The song that made him promise to love her endlessly
And made her fall in love with him hopelessly
He whispered, so luring, the words uttered so softly...

NOT   JUST   ANY   SUNSET

This lunar sunset was what he’d most miss  -

The summer winds caress my skin.
Teardrops like squeezed  lemon drops spill.
A joy ride down my cheeks.
Joy emancipated from sadness speaks
Splash, it splatters on the ground.
A crown like structure  in slow motion seen.

Was just another BAU day 
at Duesseldorf Uni
Lads in the IT room 
playing minesweeper and internet spades

A few emails here and there

Where will I be?
When your plane bursts the clouds
On its way back home
To your boys’ embrace and Asia 
Dissolves
Like a forgotten stopover
On another ticket to Destination

So where will I be?
When the softness of your...

Here lies my notepad, covered in scrawl, my pencil rolls on to the table
I watch as it rolls and suspect it may fall, but it stops at the edge, balanced and stable
The cloth it is...

She stood before the painting
And slowly it changed
The cat moved slightly
The woman’s head nodded

She liked the painting
It was very well done
Much intricate design
Much wizardry of the eye

Then gone again
Forever lost
In magical memories

I thought of you with love today,
But that is nothing new
Because  I thought about you yesterday

Sitting on the back porch on a balmy summers morn
and listening to the music of the dawn
wondering who sang the song and where the bird is at;
reaching for my copy, of ‘What bird is that?’
