Lovely bright blue star
More faraway much bigger
Than moon and the sun
it is seems smaller in sight
The amazing true blue shines

Mother having held near their canvas sacks 
Rice, beans as potatos across time: ashen rivers
Muddy water dry brush seasons misty skies; faraway

escapes to a faraway land of illusion
abandons everyone who loved him

He Sold His Ancestral Land

He sold his ancestral plot
located in free Africa
years later relatives searched
failed to obtain a plot
in foreign land faraway
to bury his remains

A puddle was his playground.
Tiny boat floating to a faraway land.
Grounds for a fertile imagination.

Footprints on golden sand
Ripple mark daydream
euphoric blind crossing another nonplus
blue-sky wish fulfilment in pursuit
tantalising infinite quest so faraway

When our time on earth is finally through
as Judgment Day comes for me and you,
all of life's toils shall be rewarded finally 
in a faraway home that lasts eternally.

A faraway planet
Undiscovered and unseen
Floating in a foreign galaxy
Through hopes and a rocket
And everything in between
I'll do anything for you and me

THE STRANGER AT MY PLACE

A stranger once stayed at my place 
Dreamed of childhood, a faraway space.  
He woke with a fright  
In the middle of the night
To find his dream staring him in the face!

(none)

where have the days gone?
where is everybody,
disappeared without a trace,
beneath the silver moon

away they went
without a message
to their deaths
in a faraway place

Salesman

The salesman packed ashes in bags
sold it as sugar in faraway countries
that he may become millionaire
soon his riches became hot ashes
packed in boxes, dumped in his house

Lightning

You calls me by the window that shimmer
              I am afraid to chase your glimmer
              Still likes to see you from faraway
              Then you went to hideaway

Outside

writing the disarray
of the outside
you feel the silence
of the dawn
across the peaceful blue
from your ink,

writing the disarray
you forget the light
of a faraway autumn

A Garden of Taranga Islands

Alone beside calm diary edge
Faraway gardens heard
Icy Jonquils kissed loneliness!
My necklace of pearls quivered...
Rusted sun-rays to unlove Violets,
When Xeronema yearns zenith..

Premium Member Faraway Places

The sighing breezes slip through trees
Drifting to faraway places unimagined
Where children’s faces will feel the breeze
And dream of faraway places unfathomed.

Nestling

Words are mine. 
Otherness will prevail.
I will call you.

Faraway in dark
I will wake up in arms 
of a feeling.

A little yellow-
bird has made her home
in the glass window.

human interest in the unknown
extra-terrestrial creatures
from a faraway galaxy
who display long faces
and come in search of
humans to experiment on
probing and prodding
to see how we tick

The Farm

On faraway mountain, there is a farm 
Where a young man lives alone, full of charm 
His mystery charms a flock 
Like he's a good out of stock 
They come to flock him whether cold or warm

There was a man from faraway lands.

He held a golf club in his right hand.

He said this to me.

What is that I see?

No club in your mitt, or ball to hit.

Books As Friends

Did you see your books as friends?
Did Enid Blyton ever end?
In the Famous Five, we did believe,
Faraway Tree, dreams to perceive,
Could not wait for new edition,
Enid the friend, our tradition.

Thoughts of Summers Long Ago

Thoughts of summers long ago
Drift and fade, come and go.
Grass and trees, the Lake, its sand,
Faraway memories of a midwestern land.
What I am now, I was back then.
And I will, in time, be again.
