Grandstanding
with dusk approaching
the radiance of the day
melts in the rain
streetlights smear
the autumn colours
across the footpaths
doubling the display
of chromatic foliage
autumn is just gloating

Diamond DreamsTulips of morning
just waked from amaranth dreams,
meet glittering sun.
Dogwood rose opens redly
Pink dawn's jewel shines steady.
Beautiful flowers
respond to warmth's mute caress!
They're a dream come true
in varicolored versions
'ere dusk dreams, in beds again!

Cosmic in Her GazeThe whirlpool stars of the Milky Way appeared when she was feeling grey.
Mother-of-pearl constellations shimmered across her skin in the candlelight.
Saturn’s red rings spiraled wildly at her climax—
A solar flare unleashed in breathless surrender.
Turquoise desire bled into solemn greys,
And those greys married verdant dreams, swirling in slow motion.
To gaze at her was to weightless drift...

The Colour Of PeaceYou know the colour of peace is white —
And no wonder, white suits you so well.
I live in a world woven with dark,
And in its midst, you shine —
Bright as the moon,
Calm in my chaos,
Light in my night.
I’m really bad with words,
Terrible at saying what I truly feel —
So you might never know…
That you’ve always...

Colorful Life
Be more present in life
than in the past.
Even the best yesterday
was a good black and white movie.

They shone daring green avocado
in dark adverse period swearing
guilt ridden heart vanquished free
sacral scrubbed pink and ready
plumed serpent in magnificent bloom
with candles God watched supreme
from blue misty mountain clean
knowing Artist was not insane
two green irises unusually plain
pierced her luminous spine divine
naked Eve...

Pink is
The color of grace and divine femininity
The color of my silk sheets and dainty clothing
Pink is like a flower
The color of love
Pink is the color of who I am and who I will forever be

Purple PainI get pain in my hands
Like my veins want to dance
No music no matter I still have them
They are purple painful muscle spasms
I had to stop playing piano because
I lost interest spasms threw me off
Got a new thrill volunteering at ASC
Spasms I refuse to let you defeat
Not sure there’s a cure for it though...

EasterEaster egg hunt for little ones
In green grass under yellow sun
Laughs that grab hearts red sonnet
Bow ties brown eyes and pink bonnet
So cute toddler who picks up a rock
Doesn’t want the emerald egg on top
Another girl seems to fuchsia fear
Easter Bunny with floppy brown ears
Every one excited taking peach photos
Easter memories as valuable...

MULTI-HUED DAMSEL IN THE BEAUTY OF HER WETNESSOut of the womb of seedless water came her birth,
And no less than always has been her silent beauty;
Radiant essence, crowning the earth’s heavenly throne:-
She’s a special reflective bouquet of God’s creativity;
Mothering sun smoothing each of her rays into its chosen place
As her regal dome challenges the matter of her crowning magnanimity:-
Her celestial realm is...

Life Passing Me By POTDFrom obscurity come the strangers
Fading away, like old dangers.
Walking the street of flowers
more people pass every hour
A few are pleasantry exchangers.
Near my porch, robin sings
Beautiful music for summer swing!
Red berries in a bowl
Kelly green butterfles, on patrol
Noontime's for swaying and musing.
Passersby, smiles of the moment
Starry eyes, upon distance fervent!
Jasmine fragrance in the air
Pink hummingbird is...
