When Wishes were made on a shooting star
The Heavens looked down and smiled
With sprinkles of stardust on a whisper of moonbeams
They created for us a child

Soothed you were by twinkling stars
In a crib that faced...

My hair has always 
had a mind of its own
Stays doing whatever
it wants whenever 
it pleases
Just never bothers to do 
any of it, at my convenience
Will take its sweet time 
to grow 
When I'm most...

somewhere i have never traveled, gladly beyond
any experience, your eyes have their silence:
in your most frail gesture are things which enclose me,
or which i cannot touch because they are too near

your slightest look easily will...

his mouth is like a foul cesspool,

The darkness, promoted everywhere,
envelops the world like a toxic smoke.

Would You Love Me If I Wasn’t A Poet?

Would you love me if I wasn’t a poet?
Writing between the rhymes
Building beautifully a wonder from words
Sculpting skilfully 
What in you
A mesmerising mirth stirs..
Would you love me?
As...

Chained to these walls of despair
I was condemned by a Judas race.
Assassins’ wait on every corner
hiding in the lights of man
looking for my face.

To be last of your species is a lonely place
in loneliness everyone’s...

Squirts of pure wool are soaring above,
I wallow in the stand of a Neolithic sky,
Actively growing while being inventive,
As a kaleidoscope, mind and body sway.

A striving act is akin to reviewing a theory,
A wish that...

About the end of times when
Carts were hauled by Shires,
Coal was king and homes
Were heated by open fires,
A seemingly huge dark figure
From my early childhood days
As he drove his horse and cart
Through the country byways
From...

Known they are as the Lisbon Lions
But  of  the West of Scotland were they scions.
Etched in history is their name
Because of that  1967 game.

Immortality upon them is endowed
As they made their fans...

Nine moons buoyant in your matrix,
Silently alive in dark mystery,
Unfathomable, unsurpassed -
And so close to that heart -
Skilfully, wonderfully, fearfully –
Wrought in dark sustenance,
Warmed by love par Agape,
Then at water burst for will to breathe,
You,...

Chosen, tantalised, to there so close thine eyes, in musical moments,
Released all cares through reaching recitals, so buried now within the stave's,
Fingers flexing, skilfully etching, a melody of all the heart to both hear and...

Vembadi, my Alma Mater


On day one, I stepped into school tearfully,
In school uniform, clutching my bag nervously.
Miss Barker appeared! I gazed  at her fearfully,
Her foreign face scared the native lass tremendously!

Miss Barker, the disciplinarian,...

The Fisher.

A flash of iridescent turquoise 
Captured by rays of awakening sun
As a new day born has begun
Among the thickets and leafy sprawling trees
Weeds and reeds
Kissed by morning dew
Wildflowers proliferate with a pleasing hue

Thereby a...

The fog delays alighting;
Suddenly I appear in that street.

the moon tries to peep out of the well

The wind chases a song all over the street.

As if some stranger I am watched uneasily.

A bunch of dogs...

In neatly lined up pots in a row	
Flaming red and purple balsams in clusters grow
A visual treat to adoring eyes
A haunt frequented by the bees

Do not need much care, but may fade
If not allowed a...

Winter crept in secretly with a smile upon her face
Dressing my garden silently with a veil of gossamer lace

A snowflake falls onto my hand; I admire its exquisite form
Its beauty is momentary as it melts...

My lovely grandma taught me how to bake apple pie 
I helped her in the kitchen from when I was knee high 


Old family recipes were written down in a book   
Cakes, cookies...

Bringing love and peace
Yes bringing to the table,
All that’s good for understood-
you're hot to trot and able…

To gather all that’s right
use it for what’s just,
Then share to make all healthy
when meeting you just must…

For you...

We are living in a world where many have lost touch within their primary senses
denying the truth where hell is skilfully cruel judging and condemning righteousness
It presents itself as the conflict fighting against sacred rights...

Our Face Tells A Story
Ones face tells a story for the entire world to see.
Some keep it straight - a little bit like me.

But when things do change and you face has to tell.

Every day just this time
I wait for you with full zeal
From my window to look you,
To watch you.
Because your presence 
Helps to make a radical change
Within a few minutes in our
Sultry environment,
The fair beauty.
I became...

The honeybee skilfully builds her cell.
She graciously secrete the wax,
Labours hard to store it well
And blesses others with the honey she makes.

The honey bee blesses each hour, 
And gather honey all the day
From every shining flower
And sweetens...
