Wave after wave, come carry me away from home on shore before the break of day my nets to set, my duties to attend, (revisiting the ones who earlier went whose ghosts now hover in the mist at dawn above […]
Fragile Dawn
Fragile Dawn – I barely see you as you shimmer through an eyelid halfway gone before you’re here, halfway gone while you are here – You bring promises with you that, forgotten, fade with you in the bittersweet gradient of […]
Morning Musings
When sunshine strikes my wearied eyes when I awake from sleep – when sloping dikes groan with the weight of tides arisen from the deep – when waking lights rise in the skies and ply my eyes wide open – […]
YOU
to the girl YOU are streams of music, tones of rain and moisturizing breaths you share, YOU are a song that comes and goes – unnoticed though by most – that follows me asleep, awake, and lives inside my palms […]
Conch Shells
Just like the seashore in a shell which sounds as if the sea itself therein should dwell, but only is an echo of your own pulse that through its windings go; how to be sure that deep within yourself does […]
Gold Stripe
Gently tuned clangs from the ivory of the piano keys – a breath disturbs the dusty air, the dust grains now break free – amidst the tunes they dance as if by music struck, awoken into life where now they […]
The Memory of Music
Don’t play it – no more melody reminding me of you – don’t play the song we used to sing, don’t sing it like you do – no sound to ruin what my heart is hoarding, true and pure; there […]
Only This Lives Forever
a rhythm, no, a beat – unheard but in-between the sounds it rests, a string unstrung makes music without sound – a pulse, again, a beat – an un-tuned, fine-tuned air, a seed of music in its latency, bearing each […]
When It Was
When it was, it all was real, today it is a shadow – the lush green grass, a lonely cloud, the daisies on the meadow – When it was, it all was real, but felt unreal to me – then […]
Peace of Mind
I listen and I read – yes, I gather each drop spilled from the minds of sages past, hoping that my mind shall someday too be filled with the drops of truth collected, that I’ll find myself subjected to my […]
Liquify
liquify my eyes and melt me till I fuse into the vapour on the grass the dew is due sweet droplets as I sink into nature’s warming breast liquify my heart turn blood to water set me free and re-unite […]
Soft Breeze
I smell wet grass and mosses from your hair as you pass by my door, soft breeze who plays with the sun’s rays and dances on forevermore Restless, joyous in your movements, not constrained by worries like my world. On […]
Sunbeam
A ray of sunlight escapes the clouds illuminating everything in its path; the red, yellow, brown autumn foliage is set ablaze as the withering leaves sponge up, consume the heat – the foliage turns luminous, sending incendiary sparks with miraculous […]
Green, Gold
The grass alights with stripes of green and gold as sunlight filters through the trees, and light and shadow divides the ground beneath in asymmetric patterns – green, gold, green, gold – of stripes, triangles and an occasional circle, disappearing […]
Streams of Water
Running from your hair, emitting from your eyes; clear streams of water does appear – spouting from your curls, and lighting up your eyes with their translucent light gives you a share of beauty unknown previously to me – engulfing […]
Silence
The air is full of solemn song though no human voice uplifts itself, much more than hearing it you sense the wind through leaves and grasses dense, probing tentatively, playing along your face and dancing with your hair as you […]
Grey Day
Horizon gone – the world is one – grey sea, grey fog, grey sky above Pale waves, pale world – around us whirl a souplike mist in thick, grey curls A second broken – on the sea a seagull strikes […]
Heart of Rust
Old ship, come to rest, torn yet stately, here at bay. Pulsing with the lapping waves pensively at anchor in the harbor, nested in the middle of the city. Red and latticed resting in its decorative decay. Like a withered […]
waves
wave after wave come rushing in, in slowmotion I watch the stream of sunshine’s glittering gold reflected on their perky tops, erected over the following hills and dales streaming silently over the shoals until they finally reach their goals; murmuring […]
A Glittering Treasure
What is there hidden, deep within, whose rhythm can be felt when you begin your journey towards me – I think all thought must cease, no thought can no more please one half as much as you, right here beside […]
