The Setting Sun
A crimson sky breaks the distant shore, The village Elder telling a story of folklore, The children laugh and play joyfully, Their laughs echoing happily, The mothers hold their babies close, Families sitting by the fire, with the ones they love most, Nearby owls listen in a tree, “Cloaked by the night, they’re not scared, they’re free”, A distant howl, travels to their...

The setting sun weaves a poem, blossoming unsung trochaic along the river basin
The setting sun weaves a poem, blossoming unsung trochaic along the river basin (Nurulhuda Junction. Teesta) Sometimes it feels quite an estranged thought to realise that living is a mundane day to day thing to sustain. The welfare causes are demanding all those intricate , subtle personal delicate feelings, into a powermonger possessive expositional ownership, for no...

And who of man Can turn the clock of time To tread once more The ways of years gone by To live again a...

Jasmine sunset, collapsing between the stars Like tangerine laughter in expressions of poetic Wars, with everlasting passions, Hesitating on the breath of a song, More powerful – glimpse of God’s gestures, Coloring the twilight with the flow of flames, Smashing through the gentle pines, Releasing the music that brings silence her grace, Melodies between heaven and earth, Listening to the tunes that tremble...

I had lost my way and felt all alone. On a delivery mission near the end of my route, some 25 to 30 miles from the shop, but it felt farther. Every part of my being was being tossed about. No phone, GPS, or internet; nor did I have a map. I was lost, and there wasn't a soul in...

The never setting sun paints my garden gold, your care for me blooms in the adoring arms. Sapphire luster shines in your happy eyes with the sparkling delight of glowing love. A drop of joyful tear caught in your eye, flashes like the dawn’s luring pearl of dew, with the flicker of longing for me. The view takes me...

Like most people On life’s long journey, I’ve fought some bouts and I’ve played some rounds, I’ve had my ups and I’ve had my downs, I’ve laughed tears of joy and I’ve cried tears of sorrow, But always lived in the present, Never tried to hasten my tomorrow. I’ve played my part and I’ve held my place, In what is known as The Human Race, A race which I...

Sizzling on the cerulean skyline Twilight lingers, eternally singing Contemplating this must be God’s headline Lighting the soul with the joy He’s bringing Twilight lingers, eternally singing Laughing at the night, tempting glow of moon Lighting the soul with the joy He’s bringing Lifting hearts with wonders to make one swoon Laughing at the night, tempting glow of moon Melodies rain sighs from the...

Setting sun shed golden light illuminating bursting bright, with her was a powder pink where auburn crowns the ochre sync. Smokey clouds upon the range natures beauty often strange, above the mountains in the sky bittersweetness passes by....

"Two doves in white flying, feathers glow, 'neath the morning's rainbow colors" Quote By: Charles Messina Beauty and diversity of creation; Clouds blossom against the blue sky.

There I Lie
Here I lie, enshrouded by the orangery aura cast by the fading rays of a setting sun I have long waited for sunrise I sit at the brink of yesterday wrapped in the arms of this lingering night, I await it's ambience to descend on me like warm sunrays Here I wait, my heart benumbed, my soul in hibernation I await rebirth, singing lullabies to the moon, attempting to...
