Long Valedictory Poems

I climb to the top of the Eiffel tower to catch the remnant of hope gliding through the skies in a bolt of lightning as it circles the three hundred- and thirty-meters pinnacle standing bravely...

Terrorism is a villainous violence, 
Used by those who disagree,
Bloodshed breaks the somber silence,
Between those who feel unfree. 

However, when one disagrees
With how the system works,
They are targeted by an intelligent team
Of thieves who wear...

I Have Seen The Stars Fallen

  The pageants veiled, and gnawed at gladness,
  As prism from far inter-stellar space;
  And they eclipse and the luminosity fa’e over the
  phase,
  And...

Nostalgic about moving-on moments
my mind lingers at throwback scenes
milestones surpassing oblivion challenge.

1974... Kindergarten toga and cap propelled my steps
toward big brother’s elementary campus
midst anticipation of sumptuous recess-snacks.

1981... Triumphantly leading alma mater pledge 
I then saluted...

Precocious boy, yon ere the age of twelve,
Parades vast knowledge, complexity swelled,
Our simplistic share was well understood,
Kept back of minds, preserves naive childhood.

Green imparts years cherished adolescence,
Bottled, we heed, coupled coalescence,
Errant appendages spark normal steps,
Blessed...

I reflect on what you look like now!
You were beauteous when I saw you last.
What precious gifts did time endow?
All those years of tranquil absence
As you slumbered away the time somehow.

I wonder if your eyes...

Morning drizzle
Drops of rainbow;
Colours dazzle

Weather contrast
Hot and dehydrating;
Sticky humidity

~~~~~~~~~


Lonely songbird
Dawn epiphany;
Lost lover's lament

New journal entry
Ring-bound folio;
Ink stain memory

~~~~~~~~~


Sleepy distractions
Lazy Saturday weather;
Bakery fragrance

Towering monolith
War memorial site;
Our glorious dead

Relics of war here
Public cenotaph;
Never ever forget

Execution

In the absence of complication,
intricacies of wayward living,
matters emphatically mitigated,
compelling conclusions, well-received,
extenuating circumstance accomplishes,
impressive consequences, be enduring,
proffers a conciliatory concession, 
for toward said conclusion, we pray that all our
trials and tribulations become distant memories.

Above sapphire...

Turning into an angelic beast,
Here is the ugly Narcissist....
For others! She cared least,
Here's the ugly Narcissist.

When the plot of life got revealed,
She had a role to lead.
Sanguine She, was now so turbid,
Like Sophocles! Hard to...

As I watched some bread fruits fall, 
I thought of friends answering heaven's call:
Like flowering plants were the youth and rigidity- 
Of these gems full with virility.
But in the sudden wake of a season
Appeared the...

Held fast by poetry and Beaudelaire   
in a pencil skirt  worn on Sunday rare   
she enrolls and returns to school again 
hoping for a chance of way back when ...

Liberated and confident she stood there,
    Embracing the moonlight and fresh air.
    Tears softly running down her cheeks.

Victory neared but I had all but given up
Memory had slowly begun to abandon me,
Ivory towers no longer satisfied my needs
Trajectory found me kneeling on bended knee.

History had not been particularly kind to me
Contradictory rumors...
