Summer Valediction
Muted swans in silent waters watch as swallows spiral upwards far away into the distance. Vibrant flowers lose their beauty, Fading, wilting, meekly dying as the summer's sad surrender honours autumn's golden reign. 07.09.19 Farewell, Summer Poetry Contest : sponsored by Nette Onclaud...

A Valediction For Lucifer
Agent of darkness King, Of principalities and powers You, Who knows no love But, Hate, scorn and wickedness You, Who sow thorns at night And, Reaps prickles in darkness You; you, Who robs Peter To pay Paul You, Who suck blood Instead, Of giving life You, Who can only Ravage the body But, Not the soul You, Who can only bark But cannot bite You, Who roam around Looking for who to devour You, Who scatters and muddles Instead, Of gathering and molding You;...

Valediction To
Valediction to.. Yet again nature sheds rain, thunder and lightening strikes as they scream in pain, the bell tolls the loss of tranquility, mankind mourns the loss of humanity, oceans deprived of water,leaves fallen from tree, infinite hollow soul moves,gloominess hangs in the world are now set free, dissimilar morning begin with mourning, morally bankruptcy about to begin, ethics and emotions already faded, ones rich...

Cold distilled atmosphere is sliced apart, From...

Been Compelled For Valediction
With the sparkle experience Of the warm abdomen, I was napping in the gentle, silky womb. All forced me to turn The nap into the sleep For ever, Not in the uterus, But in the world of Aborted infants. At the movement When I was separated from you I clutched you with A silent sob. Oh mother Why don't you give me An occasion...

Valediction
Quite some time has passed since then.. we used to sit together for hour's,talking endlessly, "till the yellow sun turned dark".. and a gracious embrace to mark a goodbye, i used to walk back home with scent of you in my soul, and a silent promise "to woke up to radiance of your love next...

A Valediction: of the Poor
I seldom bred a token for despair Out of innocence, meekness, pain or worse I'd rather wear the sand- hill, plucking air Engaging folds of plants in cold discourse. I seldom pleased the lure of brilliant pleas Nor gave mine ears to beggar calls and cries I'd rather cleave to laughter, ringing breeze Impress'd in kennel choirs of rats and flies. I seldom...
