Poppies burn like love under the sun that births longingPoppies burn like love under the sun that births longing,
Let me ask for forgiveness, to touch your face with light,
To be your sunbeam, to be a halo on your delicate brow,
To caress your skin with a sweet breeze, a zephyr that caresses the wheat,
Let my smile seduce you, let longing flow over your waist.
The evening...

Under an August Sunthe soothing shade from a majestic oak tree
refreshes in a marvelous mellow way
as a gentle breeze sways in rhythm its lush green
nostalgic memories of love have come and gone
whilst the magic of summer has only just begun...

I dream in aquamarinememories of an exotic sun rippled sea
as undulating waves caress a warm beach
i see colours scintillating, bleached
this brings forth images of paradise
and means sublime happiness to me...

SunriseI think the sun rises not from the east—
but from your stomach
Nor does it sink from the west—
but returns to your stomach
When I touched it I truly understood the work of art that God created...

Refurbished Tears"The darkened sky stole my tears"
Leaving me empty of ebony despair
Fears fall like amber autumn leaves
Bravery is braided in my somber soul
Whispers of denim denial from
Cursed child serve as warning
Lunge forward or sink in the earth
Food only for beasts and worms
Or be a light despite fright
Turn into the brightest energy
Conjuring courage...

A Brook Trickled Easily DownA brook trickled easily down
As poetry running unbound
And I stood on a rock
To hear the steady stream
Of foreign words gurgled.
A hazy shaft of light beamed down -
Laser-pointing through piney boughs -
And where it gently struck -
Columbine shined and teemed
The floor with emeralds....

Why does the sun sympathizeWhy does the sun sympathize with the man in the black shirt who is delirious with success?
That looking at the window is the door to all happiness
For him, an effective way to achieve this is with a pair of shoes
And put the gold in his shirt pocket
The sun was at my toes as...

The Quiet SunlightThe quiet sunlight
doesn’t announce its arrival—
it simply leans
against the wall of morning,
filling the cracks
no one else noticed.
It does not chase shadows,
just softens them.
No battle,
no brightness loud enough to burn.
It touches the windowpane
like a memory
you didn’t know you were still holding.
Warm,
but not urgent.
Present,
but never demanding.
It drapes itself across
the cluttered desk,
the wilted houseplant,
the spine of a book
you...

Into The Black Hole Sun - A Cosmic Ballad of Love, Loss and Illusion, Music Video
This piece was sparked by an idea in a fellow poet Tom Woody’s’ — “Last Dance Amid the Stars.” I however, followed a very different emotional path — one that avoids finality and leaves room for mystery and one’s own imagination. The story also touches on the true stories of a growing trend with...

ORANGE
The rising sun cheers all to start the day with liveliness.
Carrots and pumpkins feed all to feel the day with abundant energy.
Marigolds in the vase welcome all to face the day with passion and assertiveness.
Butterflies in the garden wish all to make their day dynamic and exuberant.
Traffic cones on the road alert all to deal...
