“Quills”
he sent
paper planes over
air waves
dodging
silver bullet’s brain
some kind of feathery love
poetic sword
plucking at
the tight-stitched up
like John Donne
unlacing amuse
voluptuous
for that harmonious chime

the force has spoken, today
of all the things to say
stop, having oft with your bother
give more love to your father and mother
those whose in ah, with me
don't need your sympathy
nothings more than satisfactory
I've risen above my condition
I've overcome my circumstances
I've out reached my sins,
I'VE, I HAVE BEEN FORGIVEN
these sins that so easily, beset us
all the panes that leads to mistrust
stop, hating on them you don't understand
grab a hold, shake a hand, take a stand
those whose in ah, with me
don't need your sympathy
nothings more than satisfactory
I've risen above my condition
I've overcome my circumstances
I've out reached my sins,
STOP JUDGING, START LOVING
STOP DODGING, START EMBRACING
START TYING AND NOT UNLACING
I've out reached my sins,
I've risen above my condition
stop, hating on them you don't understand
START forgiving this is God's PLAN
grab a hold, shake a hand, take a stand
Pray for, Forgive all your fellow man
stop, hating on them UNDERSTAND
WE'VE BEEN ALL FORGIVEN

Free verse
Auburn curls tussle in the breeze
Softly framing her radiant face
Large violet eyes spark as he nears
Her body trembles in his presence
Like a honey bee to nectar, he reaches
Embracing her seductive body close
Kissing her moist pink lips with passion
Under the concealing branches of the willow
Unlacing her lavender blouse to reveal
Her stunning bosom made for his eyes only
Laying back into the tall greening grass
Becoming one in this universal moment
She looks into his eyes saying
This special lover’s day was made
For you and I to thank creation
For the marriage and growth of Us”
Heart to heart
Soul to soul
Life to life
My Valentine

Your unclaimers
will miss the date
with a lunatic world,
what might
you need
for the final journey.
Don’t stop at midway
to watch the history
taking a turn.
A crispy sun
was waiting in meadows
to welcome bonhomie,
freedom of unlacing
the foes. The flesh sends
upright signals
for releasing the soul.
The incredible smell of bleed
will hang on the solid stings of space.
SATISH VERMA
once, from high in the mountains
your song rained down on me
drops splattering my soul
I got lost in the fantasy, thoughts
of you tied with fragile spun dreams
bound by the depth of your love
unlacing the ribbon, you look within
with tenderness, you take my heart
uniting it with yours
now, this love blooms, flowers strewn
nourished by the rain and sun
in the valley inside
Your unclaimers
will miss the date
with a lunatic world,
what might
you need
for the final journey.
Don’t stop at midway
to watch the history
taking a turn.
A crispy sun
was waiting in meadows
to welcome bonhomie,
freedom of unlacing
the foes. The flesh sends
upright signals
for releasing the soul.
The incredible smell of bleed
will hang on the solid stings of space.
