A thought arises
Sunlight heralds a new day
Both fade into dark

A sea of blue is in his eyes -
a sea of blue and azure skies!
His lips are berries red and sweet,
and in his hair’s a field of wheat
upon the pillow where he lies....

A Sand Goddess Arises

Fervently unveils his seaside Pygmalion
At the pied a terre a sand goddess arises
Sand casted are his piteous passions in sunstruck warm sand
Stuck are her arms and legs trapped, controlling her very soul
The recollection clears, an object of his affection a birth
There is...

a ghost 
comes forth from 
the house of the dead,
a rather unusual apparition –
empty, desolate.
a wraith so worn and 
frail, it barely seems
there, as if suddenly thrust
from its icy winter shade.

it rises without sound, or maybe without voice,
a solitaire and lonely
shadow without form.

I wonder what...

From "Modern Love And Other Poems"



A butterfly touched me
	With its silken fingers
And told me to close my eyes,
	Because she would reveal me
A secret!.
	And once I closed my eyes
And opened my mouth to ask
	Who was she?
But she reached back at once
With her wet wings and left...

The Dark Arises
Holy days passed by,
Its the time of invasion,
In our lives of confusion,
The sins of diffusion.
                        The dark arises.
You all will...

Hailing from 
ancient times 
Artemis goddess 
princess of the moon 
in bringing light 
into darkness 

Arising one giant 
among'st men 
from the temple 
of spirits 
who hails 
queen over 
mother earth 

Walking in 
the valley 
among'st wheat 
feelings they embrace 
held within emotions 
stirring waters...

~When Troubled Times Arises~ 
( Rhyme) 


Life is not what you or I make it out to be 
You want to work hard and play some too
But life is never easy no matter what you do 
Still you wish in your heart that it was...

So it arises, awakens,
Honoring my first felt subtle
Emotion, begins the procession
Of night dreams and bust made in the day, 
Of long unforgotten beauty’s face.
A salute to their shining eyes.
A thousand suns,
Rays beheld in deep gray pools of vision.
All crisis adverted as your spirit rouses me...

There was a time when everything was dark
In my life, and i was a man who had nothing
To live for, until i met you
Everything just reversed itself, it changed my life completely

I felt compelled to do every little thing for you
I could never say no...

Each day goes by one by one, until each day is done
Your only goal everyday is to make sure life is fun.
People stress about everything, gotta do this and that
They fight about things like money and cars, even the dog and cat.
They argue over the...

Battlefield of golden revenge
Smear the midnight sky
Confrontation is growing like weeds!

the fear 
the gears
of the fallen warriors
Drags them to ruin

the tear
the fears
of the grief-stricken warrior
Take a hold of him

Battle arises
As the fighters get ensnared by their demises
Battle constructs itself
As the frightened warrior prays for peace...

and yet we see that life goes on,
and suffer till the sinners gong,
no surprises, maybe realizes,
the nong,
in veritable song:)
what life is?
as hell on earth arises,

From the moment we wake up, the clock rules our day.
For without it, we might miss something important.
He walked the streets, never knowing what hour it was.
Searching the horizons of life, seeking its meaning.
Then finding it at last, in the emerald eyes of the dawn!
