sun relishes
in the moonlight shadow
thirst quencher

a woman's quencher
what pleases the senses so?
the sweetness of wine...

Every day is an exciting new adventure
A thirst for knowledge, a real mind bender
For opening new doors
To vistas unexplored
The love and joy is a real thirst quencher...

truckles to the wild wind's will, the rain,

       tickles leaves, twigs and tender shoots,

              trickles around damp, mossy boughs,

                     tracing, seeping down to thirsting roots!...

Wild blooms
vivid with hue
and a teasing perfume.
Captivates ravenous insects
lured instinctively through thick underbrush
for a fulfilling thirst quencher.
Passionate to give life
sustained by the
Wild blooms

Said the rains
like tear drops
I come roll off the leaves
fresh thirst quencher
these the tears of blessing from above 
trying to tell something
but humans are unwilling to listen
so how can you understand these riddles
sent to encourage you to become conscious
of every drop of good
falling without a price

I am the guardian of the garden
Sower of the seeds
Quencher of the drought
Destroyer of the weeds
It attracts many admirers
Seldom am I alone when I'm there
The butterflies, the bees, and I
Go about our work with care
I am the guardian of the garden
The tender to its needs
And while I am busy tending to it
It is my soul it feeds...

Life should continue to be an adventure.
Death should continue as well.
Either or neither of them is a quencher
for curiosity. Shall
I understand or aware or may be
should I instead realize:
whether I have wrongly won, dear Abbie,
or rightly failed, otherwise?
There can not be a more than severe
letdown for such a quest.
Life should go on as adventure, my dear,
Death should go on as the rest....

a fresh thirst quencher
sliced watermelon in red
alluring beauty

mulberry picking
romantic stolen kisses
dark purple dyed lips

crushed grape juice slithers
into her desirous mouth
she feasts avidly

overflowing bowl
red strawberries and ice-cream
summer temptation

Blue marble of life
Never was in strife
Enter humans greedy, scheming
Leaving the Earth screaming

Invisible saviour and protector
Cries silently in horror
Ravages by Father time
Corrupting it from sublime

The life giving elixir
And ultimate thirst quencher
Wasn’t spared human greed
Hence, contamination was guaranteed

Playing with raging fire
Is the human desire
To burn the house
That’s hard to douse

A poem I am to you
The theme you are to me
Voice I am to you
Singing, you are to me
 
In separation aspirations are many
Thirst I am to you
Quencher you are to me
 
Do not keep me away
Friendship I am to you
Heart you are to me
 
With feelings we must write an epic
Contemplation I am to you
Meditation you are to me
 
We must get rid of pains of problems
Relation I am to you
Solace you are to me
 
There is pleasure in admiration
Worship I am to you
Deity you are to me...
