You twist and wind uphill,
Defeating common logic
That informs ordinary will,
Quashing layman's magic.
Your miles can't mundane
Tools measure with ease,
Nor trifling men's suremises
Feign to fathom with peace.
Anfractuous is your course
Along travail's painful main,
Past warmths of kith or kin,
Beyond love's kiss and pain.
Up this odd adventurous tor
Shall my days curl their way,
Charting eerie paths via war,
Whereon saints tearful tread.

If time shall not our derelict joys
Revive with tunes melodious so,
Let past's nostalgic merries balm
Our souls and bid all sorrows go.
Should ebbing laughter and smiles
Their cold arcs yet vanishing carve,
May old cheers of our jolliest whiles
Redeeming warmths pitifully impart.
Although gone mirths seldom thwart
Present galls despite their vivid hues,
Mortal forgetteries lulling blisses are,
As would certainly void painful clues.
Thus might sweetly reechoed tones,
Excerpts from our merriments dead,
Like beneficent ditties in unison allay
All lingering whits of lonesome dread.
And if blunt fate her forking bivouacs
Twirl and twine in drab manners sour,
Beclouding paths erst snowing white;
Here’s bold shield in life’s icings dour.

Ribbon layers of peach,
tangerine, yellow and violet
colored streamers of varied
dimensions overlap
While bridging evening sky
the last of the sun's rays
ignite different hues overwhelming
ones sense of sight
As its impression is reflected
off mirrored surface of the lake
Snow crystals hug lakes shores
stopping any water from
escaping its banks
In its background towering
trees minus all leaves just
sticks for limbs poke out
the tip top a bit bushy from
multitude of twigs
Even their image is echoed
off slick glass like water
Sky softens as it kneels
touching the horizon where
they seem to merge together
with a dark barrier of dirt
All melts into others or reflected
off watery mirror
With snow bringing it all together
Yet the sky gives false
hope of warmths welcoming
glow to this captivating
panoramic backdrop
This is an older poem!

Wails of a child unknown to me,
Capriciously about my lobes.
Troubles me most disturbingly,
Generates many tears that holds.
If it were mines, tender the touch,
My soul, my heart, they would both be.
Extended warmths will be so much,
Eyes be wide opened to receive.
A surprise to be, of its hold,
At a distance I turned and saw,
The once wailing child looked so bold,
Child cracks a smile at me with awe.
This be so unexpectedly,
What be within me emanates,
Outstretched it did invisibly,
Delights of three now resonates.
Departure of three that it be,
Their hearts they will be now comforts,
Three souls unites with so much glee,
Parts knowing of the warm efforts.

A tapestry lay in an ancient sun,
Basking neath a ventrous day yet unspun,
Colorful hues of ocher and saffron,
Draws aqueous fumes that moist production,
Every eye, blossom, unhatched egg, greet, opens,
Fortuitous bounty spreads emotions,
Gathered, skins, feathers, and scales, 'bout all strewn,
Harken a flightless prayerful dove a tune,
Invocates breaths to cite a liturgy,
Jolts loose a cloak of boundless energy,
Kingpin meanders its righteous release,
Lifts a poised sky veiled like an altar piece,
Mirrored echoes o'er a restless domain,
Naked beings wild, nay wear traps of vain,
Oaths show side-by-side, generating warmths,
Pleasant touch between life, light and air, calms,
Qat leaves pools a creeks hold, stirs brew a tea,
Raven espies to hover, pecks a spree,
Symmetry fulfills in a baseless realm,
Tenacious wanton rhapsody days' whelm,
Universe descendants be a joint trust,
Vast spectered spectrums spirals to adjust,
Webbed stars a new sky, quietude abound,
Xenon fades into a nulled swarty crowned,
Yielding yawns, surrenders lids to be froze,
Zzz's orchestrates descents towards a lulled doze.

My Country
The day when i took a step over it ,
The day when i was unknown about it ,
It holds me like a son ,
In its arms like a mother other than none .
I was warmths by its earthy smell ,
It rises me up whenver I fell ,
My lord give me birth over this divine again ,
So that its pure love could be gained .
Heart is full for respect for it ,
But hands are empty what can i give to it ,
Ever thinking to be a soldier for it ,
Or a politocian who will raise for a bit .
The day when i took a step over it ,
The day when i was unknown about it ,
It holds me like a son ,
In its arms like a mother other than none .

The neurons fire and fire
Until achieved
Hearing the excited tones
Smelling the fresh air
Feeling the loving warmths
Looking for new spaces
Cooing for nutrient filled milk
Moving stronger with each trial
Building with every tool
Venturing into areas unknown
Discovering abilities and inabilities
Failing and falling
Discerning, the mind's power
Understanding, the knowledge gates
Mastering, the talented dream
Winning and raising
Living and dying
