(Please Note: this poem is generalised and not about at any particular   individual)

It is so interesting how differently humans perceive each other
Our perceptions are often at complete opposite ends
I see someone to avoid and stay well away from
You see a potential friend 

You see a good, kind and caring person
I see a performance

Wide Open Skies

(Entered for Contest: Memories Lost Within A Frozen Mist. Sponsor: Sara Jama.
Deadline 8th April 2025)


Do you remember, those wide open skies?
when we were younger, with wide open eyes
the world was our view, from the Empire State
or walking that walk, on the Golden Gate
days when tomorrows, were never ending
long before sorrow, had started trending
maybe I will

Hours drift by
Yet here l still lie
Eyes and mind wide open

Desperate for sleep
Counting Little Bo-Peeps sheep
Eyes and mind wide open

Frustrated and forlorn
For now it is dawn
Eyes and mind wide open

Soon it is time to rise
I will be the walking dead in disguise
Eyes and mind unopened!

Heavenly Gates Wide Open

With heavenly gates wide open, earth unsealed
As walls come down, obstacles vanish from our field
New impressions arise within our mind
Unblocking our thinking, freshly aligned
Our thoughts take new wing
For strength to flow, joy to spring.
Royalty adorn upon our gown draped
Overcome the invincible, for evil is already defeated
Move back to move ahead with heaven’s might
Advance and ascend

The Palace Door Swings Wide Open

The palace door swings wide open with delight
In the yearly cyclic calendar, behold the sight,
A new move of the Spirit, awakening this hour,
Where whispers of hope blossom with every prayer.

From depths unseen, a springing well begins,
The waters are being stirred by angelic hosts,
Heaven dances in the streets, the story unfold,
Healing pouring forth, as a pipeline

Heavens Open Wide

In realms where heavens open wide,
A dance begins through portal untied,
Let rain cascade from heaven above,
As the earth below bursts into life.

A shifting is happening in life's expanse,
The ground in joy begins to dance,
With every step, new vigor rejuvenates,
Reviving places tread behind.

Embrace the call, restore the heavenly flow,
In new identities we grow,
For we are warriors,

Eyes Wide Open

I lay in bed, eyes wide open,
Counting sheep, but they have all spoken,
My mind races, thoughts galore,
But sleep, oh sleep, it's such a chore.

The clock ticks on, the night grows old,
My body tired, but my mind so bold,
I toss and turn, I try to rest,
But insomnia has passed its test.

The moonlight shines through the windowpane,
As

Eye's Wide Open

With eye's wide open, we're able to see,
head up, chin up, smiling we should be.
 Aware of our surroundings all the time,
we listen to our heart's, rhythm and rhyme. 
 Living, loving, learning each day we live,
as comfort to a broken heart, we give.

Even heart of a hard rock is revealed when split,
Secrets are hidden midst atom-fibers well-knit;
Thinnest of hair should be split open for research,
Wisdom is hidden even within nooks of birch...

Hard terrain under earth-surface has precious gold
Minerals many the womb of earth does unfold;
Digging the mind deep does bring forth numerous thoughts,
The depth of heart has

I split wide open my heart to you Lord
Fill my emptiness to recharge my soul
I remain docile to your faithful words
I’m here, ready to respond to your call.

I split wide open my mind dear Jesus
Set my day's plans for your glory above
Dwell in my thoughts, guard it from futile fuss
That I’ll think and act in

A chance encounter soon turned to love
Blossoming alike a flowering spring
That undulates moods of prairies green
Oscillating rhythms of tender winds
Amid trees-abloom, swaying revelry
And streams rushing to greet the sea.

They were blessed to find each other
Having just exited from a harsh winter
Of failed marriages and lovelorn yore
That gelid memories still fetch to fore
Even when ruminating of

She watches as the familiar female face falls from his wallet
An infidelity exposed
The truth of betrayal unfolds

In fevered disbelief she sat motionless through the night
Slowly her eyes refocus... he still lay upon their bed

Grabbing the scrubs she'd just bought for work
She kisses his forehead, sets the broken, bloodied knife in the sink
And locks the door
