With my feelings rising like the moon ,
I'm on rhyming mode ,
my mind is jumbling ,
dancing to the beats that the POET Is inventing .

Eyes are open wide ,
with no inch of a blinking ,
like a hybrid  scouting , 
one breath it all fades ,
this is Poetry in making ....

SOLITUDE  
Eaten – up in solitude 
Camp in her cold shell
Couldn’t bar the rain
But watch it stain the desert
Scouting in misery 
Like melancholy in the dust
This nature wheel m nut 
Alas the plain is cold and freezing
Does warmth indeed exist?
I crave her but demur...

Little brown mouse you came into my house but you weren't invited inside 
Then at night you sneak out to go scouting about and by day in my attic you hide 
Now that bodily waste that you drop every place, is something I just can't abide 
So I'm sorry to say but a trap I must lay, for a mouse in my house cannot stay...

Pride

Pride is a luxury
I afforded 
Last night
Just this morning
It has ruined my years of bridges
Now, i am munching the cords of 
broken bridges
Scratching the debris of friendship
Scouting for again
But no gains again
Had learnt my lessons
Though in a bitter way
Pride is a luxury i can't afford again...

Had 6 she did. One at a time. 
Worried about one…most of the time. 
One had their own set of rules too. 
Early on realized school was a bore.
Overnight a scouting uniform turned into a wetsuit.
It takes much longer to turn a wrench into a paintbrush.
Seems absconding normalcy is fun to do and watch.
A mother’s bewilderment turns to understanding....

I'm silence but eager,
Eager to be the best,

Scouting my talent,
Trying bring out the best,

Best of any situation,
Garden as the rest,

Garden by truth envision of the craft, 

Sound of guess walk along avenue to found a grand staff,

Walk around the neighborhood to replenished the thirst, 

Like a story undefined how many situation has been to get a second change of, Guess a guess of success,...

In the stars I see far off possibilities, on this clear night

the lights seem brighter. Like beacons of hope and my thoughts

are provoked. I wonder who else is looking out, scouting the stars

to find themselves. We are not alone upon this earth and we all

deserve that second chance. So as we glance and star gaze take

a deep breath and have hope, as this is just another phase. We

will escape life's maze....

The ancients honored you in their cultures
Mythology crowned Jataya, King Of Vultures

Obligate scavengers, you conduct your foray
Toward putrid carcass of what will be your prey

Dead bodies, prairie dogs, rodents, wild boars
Insatiable eclectic pallet opens many doors

Vomit, your defense, your uric acid searing 
Hunched backbone, broadened wingspan so fearing

Here they soar, the vultures who seldom kill
Just scouting about for their carrion meal...
