Reminiscing in revelries of yore, treasured memories impart,
Defying glum turbulence of now, hanging on to seasons past,
When springs...

In Realm of Love
...In realm of love, you are the awe of mystique~
Musings of smitten soul, passions bespeak,

Oh, Autumn
...Oh, splendorous, spectacular, resplendent autumn!
Boldly you dye cypress ~ flaunting ochre, cinnamon,
Yellowing sugar-maple, glazing tangerine emotions,
As scarlet winds warble in accents of m...

...While we wait
The terrace of our flat is a place for retired kings
the sun shines humbly not burning my nose and
the sea is calm as a full glass of water left

...Colored leaves are earthly bound
falling soft upon the ground
making not one single sound
images of beauty found.
So many those, them, and these
tugging gently from their trees
drifting darti...

the girl in me embraced an amiable virtue
born out of an affinity for our town’s revelries :

Trapped in tenebrous nightmare
A world without you, a forlorn cry,
Vacant stare of lonesome life
Aching to hear your loving voice.
A chorus of sweet angelic hy...

Sways and swings cheerily, a happy emissary,
Budding new vigor upon tiny greenish leaves
Adorning exuberance of idyllic new morning,
Quivering golden...
