Idanre's Ancient Charm
I venture forth, an explorer true,
Seeking knowledge, with heart anew.
Idanre's hills, a treasure to behold,
Ancient secrets, yet to be unfold.
The people, industrious, with hearts of gold,
Welcomed me, with stories untold.
Their cocoa farms, a lush, green sight,
I harvested with them, under the sun's warm light.
Their water, a natural blessing, pure and fine,
Quenched my thirst, and revived...

The Truth About Australia
Australia is so beautiful
Tropical forests go on forever
Plants not known anywhere else
Brightly colored flowers bloom
And grasses reach into the sky
So many animals, insects and birds
Life abounds in every meter
You must always be careful
Make sure you wear the right clothes
All Australians know the truth
Everything in Australia wants to kill you
So just stay locked in your car
You...

A Red Moonrise over the Coral SeaUnexpectedly
inspired by a Péladan jeremiad,
the red moon laughs at the sea
and the possum-ness of the possum;
Churlish blood rays remain
a never never world utterance of the jungle,
Every lupercalian dragonfly
conspires with brooding
red hibiscus flowers;
On a night like this,
all creation winces and endures
before melting into a black water mirage
of broken feverish brush strokes
and fruit bats in a mangrove...

Angelic SyzygyThe dark intestine of the sea
Swallowed a colony of moonlit bats,
God laughed and threw a new
Canopic jar of graceful waves
For Set and Horus to quarrel over;
God smiled again and the darkness
Stampeded over distant green hills,
Horus cried and Set fainted;
God grimaced and the luminous
Blackness enveloped every flower,
Ancient cliffs and ghastly crabs remained
Transfixed by limpid moonshine;
But the...

Dreams Of ParadiseOur earthly realm of wonder and beauty
Observing its glory is our living duty
The most exquisite sight I have ever seen
Was a paradise island I have never been
A tiny green dot in the mighty ocean blue
Unleash your dreams and you may visit too
Just close your eyes and raise your sail
You’ll be carried there by a windy...

Thank You For Your Forest, FatherWhy do I have peace
Inside your forest, Father
That everytime I do here
My mind is recharge
Just a breathe for 10 seconds
My perspective change
My eyes start to wonder
In appreciation the beauty
You give to my eyes
Everything I see is life
Of art and of poetry
Inside of me rekindle
Are charging, rearranging
Your river here is so cool
Clear and cleansing
Your trees are...

Rainy Paradise - abbaAmongst thick green foliage and twigs of forest canopy
are the haunting melodies of the heavenly feathered souls,
mud puddles ripple each note that vibrate to fill airy goals,
some grieving angels from heaven may stop here to feel happy....

Retreat in the WoodsAwaken with the break of a tangerine dawn
bathing you in its Crimson sacredness !
Meditate with the majestic Pine trees
Towering the skies
Transcending the temporal !
Dance among the wild poppies and lupines
Reveling in your freedom and aliveness!
Like Robins and Jays
Singing Life's joyous melodies
Live with abandon, moment to moment !
Blend...

Inside ForestThe forest is beautiful
Despite it rained
Many mushroom grow
Scattered everywhere.
I feel tranquility
I breathe of fresh air
And my eyes mesmerizes
How nature gives beauty to me.
Camping in the forest
Is seducing to relax
Taking pictures here and there
Most precious is my self-contemplation here....
