The Reign

A coat was laid upon the shoulders
potential threats firmly at bay
arms that held the precious mould are
protecting those who chose to pray

a bridge to cross a sea of secrets
as towers leaned towards their fate
cross the heart and aim to keep it
and swallow what will fill the space 

a canopy arched over wisdom
confidence came in its

Fire and Ice

Brilliant and dull,
Losing and winning,
Seeking and finding –
Among the dreams, a feeling…
She risks her heart,
And, finds her hope.
She rises in the morning,
To erase the darkest fears.
She wonders through shadows,
To abide beneath the light of love.
She kisses away the past,
With laughter because she’s gone.

Beautiful and hideous,
Winter and summer,
Chaotic and peaceful –
Despite her faith, she blunders…
She lingers

Opposing Suspension Tableau

      I’ll meet you halfway 
      set fire to both ends 
        Kiss you in stasis 
      as our world upends
       God it feels so good 

Opposing - Raven Skies

In a house with all the lights burning; but nobody's home 
In the clear night; stars burning brightly; but no lines drawn or shown 
Constellations; the only connection; that's never physically known 
But that's where salvation lies; Hidden behind those dead eyes; 
In the infinite unions; found; in those raven skies

Opposing Tremelo Torrents

I May or May Not Be Opposed 1-3-24  Original Poem Tremolo Torrents
I could not get the bold function to work so I put the original lines in parenthesis.

Opposing Tremolo Torrents

“Thundering fat raindrops fall
Driven deluge in wild squalls
As torrents pelt the thirsty ground
Sheer rain staccatos resound
Tempests fury rides the storm
Wind-swept raindrops leap free form.”

Opposing Wrapped in White

First six lines of my triolet entitled “Wrapped in White” followed by my contrasting six lines which I’ll entitle “Crestfallen in Snow”

I long to tread upon the snow
in hush of winter, wrapped in white;
in feathered mounds serenely go.
I long to tread upon the snow.
The boughs hang low;  no wind doth blow.
My love, come see

Opposing-Quest for Prey

Awful rumors arose on a rainy day at twilight.
Dwelling in darkness, guilty of stealing light.
Drops in rhyme, color-and-time lyrics draw me.
Through vibrant strokes, a love riot sings

Earth is jinxed opposing

Butterflies renouncing their dreams...
Birds with trimmed wings... 

Blood ocean... barren trees... burnt houses...
Teared eyes... and shattered bodies….

Earth is ugly.... Earth is savage...
Earth is but a jinxed place....!!


           Butterflies have reclaimed their thrones 
           And the

Opposing Rising From Ashes Of Scorched Heart

The tinsel moon you gleamed in cradle of argentine night
On wings of ornate cloud I tried to embrace you
But you ambled through the silky sky I called mine
A turquoise trail you carved in my heart you knew
I could discern my love glow with touch of moondust
At the edge of the departing night thunder clouds surged.


The

Opposing Inkless

 So many words
lost in my soul.
Yearning to bleed,
but the ink is shy.

It does not want
to make you cry.

No more words,
as soul is found.
No temptations
when ink is brave.

All it wants is
to make you smile.

Opposing Poetry

POETRY DOESN'T ALWAYS COME TO ME TIPTOEING IN A VEIL OF IMAGINATION OR RAGING LIKE A TURBULENT STORM
IT DOES EMERGE WHEN WAKING UP, I GAZE AT THE ENCHANTING VERMILLION SKY AT DAWN, MAJESTIC SUN RISING IN THE HORIZON. 
IT DOES WHEN GORGEOUS SUNFLOWERS IN MY GARDEN BLOOM, FLAUNTING THEIR MESMERIZING GOLDEN PETALS!
MY HEART LEAPS AND FLUTTERS

Almost Xanadu - Opposing

The first stanza is from my poem- Almost Xanadu

 I see everything clothed in glistening sheen.
 Around me, all I see is beauty and grandeur.
 Heaven seems to have come down to earth.
The sky and the Earth, draped in great splendor. 
Anyone who lands in this ‘Elysian Field' will loudly exclaim,
‘If there is a Paradise

OPPOSING ACRE

OPPOSING ACRE

Well, is it better to travel than arrive
Getting there doesn’t mean you rest
As that is when exploring starts again
To return here, nobody knows when
Stand on the walls and beat your chest
Such adventures make you feel alive

Arriving safely means you do survive
Maybe lose a shirt but keep your vest
No more travelling, just count to ten
Stay

Break Free Opposing

Break Free (original).

I decline to be bathed in abject defeat, I intend to break free. 
My endeavour isn’t dead, intellect serves as a panacea for me 
My muse and I must find impassioned advocacy to meet. 
I intend to break free, I decline to be bathed in abject defeat. 
The solution I submit, it will

Opposing-White Rose in a Summer Garden

A white rose grew in her Summer garden.
"Beautiful rose, I must beg your pardon.
for I must clip you from your flower bed
to enjoy your aroma in my home instead."
In crystal vase the rose was fondly admired
until its velvet petals withered and expired.


Delicate white roses grew in Summer's heat
with such a delightful fragrance, cloyingly sweet
Their beauty
