Too Precious to Contain
Perfume of tremendous worth,
Emptied from an airtight jar,
Left a sweet fragrance in the air,
As roses on a spring morn.
Promptly brought a harsh rebuke,
Labeled as a wasteful sin.
Others had an insightful view,
It’s too precious to contain.
Basic goods must always flow,
Not withheld with selfish greed,
By the “haves” from the “have not” poor
We must respond to their need.

Selfishly Artistic
And one day
Out of the blue I wondered,
about those million little sacrifices that have been made
Because of which, the desires burning inside
Had no option other than to fade
How many times, the times not liable to be counted
must have a young mind came to a standstill
Barricading his thoughts,
On something so rare
Just to complete his

Battered and bruised full of defeat
My pillow so wet and sodden
So many tears so many I’ve forgotten
This thought before has arisen
But I still had fight a way

You Selfishly Stole
As a brisk breeze followed us to the sea
we felt rejuvenated, young, and free.
And stars lit the heavens in sheer delight
smiling on two lovers who owned the night.
Together we sent prayers to God above
asking Him to bless the fruit of our love.
And without trickery or deception
we both made love dreaming of conception.
When our two souls

Selfishly I Blink
How selfishly I blink my eyes to see
When morning sun does stand upon our bed,
And full of self, so wholly happily,
I turn to watch you sink, you sleepyhead.
Two very selfish lovers, yes, are we,
Who love our sleeping more than all who live,
And by our waking light of certainty
Ensure ourselves sex-holy nights to give.
Ah, sun, go
