Clock Strikes Midnight

Another day gone
I face the deadly music
Fate determine what's,
Going to become of me
Time goes on as my life leaves.

             January 
      encourages gains;
      The clock strikes 
      you hear the word
              ‘new.’

Rain

People are same as rain
they keep holding in everything
until one day it strikes as thunderstorm
and burst into raindrops


Raindrops

darkened sky rumbles lightning strikes flashes deep steady blue raindrops falling

Intense

Lighting strikes, a force unknown.
Satanic powers, short-circuits the zone
Body trembles, now I’m spent

From his cocoon
  overlooking the fray

  the poet strikes
    his keyboard
    
    triumphantly
 
    Truth ablaze

The Sun

the sun 
strikes a nesting  gull
just another dawn
to a human marking
the breath of the tides
yet never forgets the gull

Are we two lines in a frame? Let lapse of our sin and shame. Strikes on the clay are to blame.

Just to make wishes,
I went to see the rainbow
But dark Sky threatened
me to defend myself from
the dangerous lightning strikes

To a Loving Face

A leering character
in a bad cartoon
strikes a pose
for forgiveness
a frantic change of pace
to hide the fires
from his face.

Sunset Behind Rainstorms

Rain
Falling
Huge orange ball
Behind storm clouds 
Thunder lightening strikes 
Red painted skies 
Sunset dips 
Out of 
Sight

summer storm
upon the horizon
lightning strikes

raindrops 
on the windshield
flash flood

thunder
above the clouds
drum solo

the dark night strikes again 
her kisses washes away my pain
enriching my domain 
a woman made of books 
so charming with her looks

Soaring with stingers,
Unsuspecting tiny strikes,
Bee’s protect their hives.

still and silent one moment
glowing and rapid the next

Lightning
is creative burst
inside a biological cloud
channeled by an ink rod
in which thunderbolts
never strikes twice
on every line
