betrayed by the light
a long, dull and bright dark sleeps
forlorn midnight arks

To write some rules that check a text
to posit if it’s human:
a bit like Noah building arks
while lacking in bitumen.
For what’s the pitch, the angle here…
see plagiarism ceased?
To write a code to find fake odes:
that’s some recursive beast!...

Fatima

F illed with teases and fun,
A rtistic in all she does.
T hinks always of what's to come,
I llustrating unique wisdom.
M arks all, when the day is done,
A n independent young woman.



Dedicated to my lovely sister Fatima...Maryam*...

World
One
And all
Blessed and kind
Nature and souls bind
Clings, remain soft but not fragile
In God's hands, no strong marbles clutches the ground ductile
No boulders can silence the caves' echoes in the Cordillera of man's gifted lands
Seas and oceans combined, grounds drifting like blind, storms and clouds may rage over sands but floods cannot capsize arks of men as God and Love prevails....

Misty Blue
  where are you?
I am so blue
  I long for you.

Wicked dreams
  drive me crazy
Open streams
  dry so quickly.

Tides rise
  winds demise
Arks capsize
  mounds arise.

Once in a blue moon
  mystical you disappear
Twice in a spoon
  drops of you appear.

Your spirit
  I love, calling your name
My spirit
  your love, a burning flame.

What more can I tell?
  hitting me so deep
Walking through the steep
  under your spell....

A NEW YEARS WISH

I sit across the room and look
At treasureres I collect
Owls, Eagles and Noahs Arks
And the cross Billy made

Also upon the shelves
My Nativity sets
The real meaning of Christmas
And what they represent

And as this time
Once more draws near
We begin to contemplate
Those we hold most dear

Two thousand nine is almost gone
Two thousand ten in sight
With prayers and hope we ask one thing
May we share peace on earth.

We dared meet
in clandestine disguise
behind an overlay of water

Secreted
from watchful eyes peering
amid crystalline dancing droplets

Our first kiss
concealed from lurking eyes
extracting  jewels of youthful joy

Rainbow arks,
captured floating crowning’s,
appearing and captivating gems
