Long Pallette Poems

After drenching biblical rainfall...
verdant green acres covered the planet of the apes
like a petticoat junction
donning barrel of skinny dipping monkeys.

Once drought stricken vast landscape
far as the eye could see
suddenly flush with promise
of budding new shoots

I wonder if I should call it a nightmore

The flight had been long
as the jet soared through night.
My neighbors were lifelessly still,
weary for sleep, the night would fulfill,
and morning would graciously greet.

High up in space, I silently watch
as the sky passes from the...

 before wide blue yonder

 turned into a black widow spider

Have We shared the same pallette 

Have We danced to the...

The world is one big Pallette
full of mixed colours
mixed races,mixed cultures.
The world is full of different ideas
full of The Humble and The Intelligent, 
How Beautiful in its own diversity is the world.


White is too pale

My Simple Pleasures

With a sweeping of colors,
 l can imagine places in my mind
And display a world of imagination 
Converted to canvas
With my hand like a wave brushing fantasy into reality.

And as I turn the...

A blank canvas, clean and crisp 
Awaits the drops from a rainbow sprayed pitter patter of a magical rainfall
and a storm, by the artists brush obeyed

Onto a perfect paradise 
A shattered pallette of acrylic thrown

Delicately smoke stacks rose in tendrils
From my lobotomised mind, tracks of steam
Channels which searched for surrendour 
Teased unfamiliar air aflame, eventual glean

Chances which blind chases never uncovered 
Now relaxed stance soul caresses confirm
Worth in the...

Vibrant, sunlit aqua bands streak over grey sky,
As smoky purple, broad brush strokes under them lie.
Deeply drink this bolder winter palette, before it passes by!

Snow clings to the windward side of barren trees,
Like white icing...

A watercolor sky 
at Dawn-washed salmon, and light 
lemon hues. The colors 

are reflections,
in a lone fresh puddle shaped 
like a winding stream; 

in the shiny streets;
the gleam of the cars of greys
and deep Twilight...

The vast midnight blue 
Ready .............. 
Ready, for my stars too 

Reaching for my pallette, 
no words needed................ 
I was all set 
This midnight sky seeded 

I painted the sky with stars 
Jupiter and Mars................

If the deepest shade of blue is midnight
Whilst the cheapest brands fade a hue
I'll let you tell me everything is still alright
And I'll sing of love that's ocean deep to you

As you catalogue my past...

Oasis at noon

What a wonderous quiet place it is
the heart of a palm oasis
skirted trees stand guard about
keeping dusty heat without
holding shaded cool within

a small breeze sneaks past a frond
dancing in ripples across the pond

all things are covered over
given texture, rather than context
so much so that it all becomes hard to believe
until you realise, you didn't need to believe at all
nothing matters - is the stark reality

Blessed with mythical like powers

And magical wonders to dazzle

With colours from the pallette of universal creation

With the ability to beautify and bring to life

Places many fear or feel dead

It plays a joyful...

Hot winds blowing everywhere
Golden glistening dress all wear
Jade, peridot, emrald leaves in trees
Sway sanguinely in summer breeze

Stunning sunrise and sunset
Seductive colours of sun's pallette
Cloudless, clear, charming sky
Magnificent moon, mesmerises eye

Myriad melodic chirps reverberate
Flamboyant flowers for...

 Dazzling patterns, beautiful views,
 As pink cherry blossoms adorn the tree,
 Brushstrokes of nature offer colorful hues

 Birds sweetly sing to color the dawn

Stopped by life on a sunny day,
Flowers use earth's pallette
To become their own Monet.
An ecstacy of trees
Builds stairways to the sky,
As tabernacles of cardinals
Chant, by and by.
A suirrel's content
To munch awhile.
He looks at me.

As March winds huff and blow,
Come crocus in their purple shades,
And daffodils appear in rows,
Heralds they, of brighter days.

What can a heart be but glad,
As flowers wake from slumbering,
As bluebells in their myriads,
Hearken to the...
