angst, courage, encouraging, love,
I see you filled with emotional pain
You feel like you are alone
So I will hold your hand
It’s okay, you do not need to explain
I will be here through the hurt
Let me absorb your tears
When you are ready tell me how you feel
My promise is to listen
You are safe here with me.
For Carol Connell’s Kimo Therapy Contest

From childhood adore with love
Penny save to run to bookstore
Reading and knitting all day
Eyes and hands in drop of hill
In hugging the sea breeze
Inviting underneath no need to breath
Deep dive to sea as host
When came beneath in dream
In wet hands hosting pearl of shells
Breeze of the sea escaped white curtains
A new day to wash with sea and sun
Run to bookstore than get a new canvas

desire, hope, miracle, peace,
If miracles were from the trees
I could have picked the only
That could change the world forever
Make it a better site,
For every one of the inhabitants
Bring to an end all evils, and
Catastrophes that trouble the innocents,
Put to a stop era of calamity
That began with arrival of the evil monster,
Feeding on the lost souls,
While intoxicating them with evil appetite,
To cause chaos that cannot be fixed,
As they enjoy hosting dark forces;
So if miracles belonged to the orchard
I would have picked the only one,
That could ennoble everyone around,
Restore love and peace in our midst,
In this world born out of love

love
'Honey bunny' --
Here do I cross my heart;
I am confused.
Do I believe?
Do I love?
Do I see through?
But I speak a lot --
Words for words' sake;
Find my capacitated strength
In my literature --
And I enjoy that.
Not flirting around dear,
Nor hosting a game show,
Nor stripping your 'wet-suit'
To see you in a naked aquarium.
I enjoy words,
Love, life in it.
I engineer them and mold them
To see me gay in shaping blocks.
Don't take my words seriously, then
Enjoy that to your heart's content.

Family Love
Whether I am taking a trip or hosting a stay
Because we’re family, I can’t wait
And even though, it all seems fine
Little subtleties do remind
The passive aggressive comments you made
Makes me wonder, why you even came
Cause, if you really feel that way
Then find yourself a new place to stay
And if it’s me that visits you
I know exactly what I should do
I’ll speak my mind; I’ll say my peace
But you’re not sure why I had to leave
And sure enough, this too will pass
And at my expense, we will have a laugh
And when, again, we will get together
I will pass it off, to not remember
Passively

I'm love’s iPad ready for an embrace.
Steve Jobs got credit for the touch interface
But mine's up and running with all the updates
I'm love's police regulating the pace
"you took that curve a little fast - this isn't a race."
I'm love's surveyor drawing the lines
"the pilgrims want to explore a new area this time."
I'm love's conductor - whew - hear the engine whine
"A tourist wants the tunnel - he's ready and primed."
I'm love's waitress
"sir, that's not on the menu."
Love's entrepreneur hosting the venue
I'm love’s umpire right there in your face…
"sorry pal, but you’re out at second base!"

love
Hosting a bash, the belly butterflies flutter,
From the thought of you, I melt like butter.
Strong willed, outspoken unless my affection,
My retreat if ever eyes should meet in your direction.
To reveal what I feel, I stand petrified from the fall.
Like a forest, too timid to hear the Timber call.
Heart trapped in the middle of social and destiny game,
Yet, I'm the only one between the two of them to blame.
Past romance all perishable love precedents,
But why should you get blamed from prior antecedents?
Temperature upsurge from feasible pleas able passion merge.

Wind And Dust
Even his commandments are greater than we are
and I have heard, "You cannot please God in the flesh"
I think, then we should try and please him in the spirit
and I look around
to see how we try and please him in the spirit
under his vast, bright, blue sky
where people live and people die
and I wonder what is the difference
wind and dust
and how can we love him
when we have trouble loving each other
and how can he love us
when we have trouble loving each other
and we will find what we seek
mostly judgment
or at least it seems to me
and what are we
sisters and brothers of the living breath
hosting thoughts and others
in the flesh

analogy, beautiful, humanity, love, meaningful,
Sometimes too much sunlight
renders sparks upon my vision,
'til my peripheral grows tired
and I retreat in mind and silence
to back alley streets
hosting scent of old blood,
where life crept in
so fast it sung violence.
I'm fascinated by traces
of sound between ticks
in our clockwork.
The things unseen,
spreading cracks without notice,
ever shaping our dreams.
I'm looking for monsters
in the places that belong to them,
the patterns to glean
from unwanted thread.
Would you come find me
in the spaces you dread?
Then I am yours,
and you're my King.

A night
hosting my strange dream
I’m dying
for my landing
near you O dear!
Here is a voice
Can you hear it?
stealing me
to try to meet your eyes
and carefully read your face
How come you could
be taken for a stranger
O dear!
How come I could hoard
this feeling
of your being so close to me
so closer to my heart
than its own beating..!

beauty, how i feel, love, relationship, remember, romantic love, sexy,
Door slightly ajar
Pushed far
It's the second storey
Hosting a romantic story
Furniture spartan and simple,
Not stately like her, but dull
The whirring fan, overweening
Haughtily saying, 'I can'
The heat, still unrelenting
Source, the sizzling thing
Negligibly clad
She crazy & he going mad
Raising the mercury further
Between him & her
Her statue-like pose
There his heart goes
Slightly raised knee
The yoga posture of a tree?
He hugs the trunks
With her love, punch drunk
And the image stays
All nights, all days.

allusion,
Truth loiters long
Can words speak strong?
Faith wanders far
Can words be stars?
Hope transits here
Can words spice cheer?
Love gathers poise
Can words find voice?
Wit wanders well
Can words not tell?
Mind mellows crisp
Can words stride brisk?
Heart hosting health
Can words find wealth?
Soul welcomes bliss
Can words fund ease?
Light lingers late
Can words sculpt fate?

love, peace,
Look up the sky,
From this end to the yonder horizon;
What do you see?
A vast heaven;
A limitless heaven;
Hosting sundry birds of colours;
Singing solace
To the relief of the sorrowing world.
Turn round now, and look the skies;
In the boundless skies,
Rainbow flaunts its many colours;
Giving beauties to the fading earth.
Birds of colours
Respect their own melanges;
Rainbow as well
Cherishes its many colours.
But to appreciate the creation of God,
Man loathes diversities of tongue and colours
In the world as big as the limitless skies;
Giving rooms only
For hatred and malice.
But we can all live in peace,
If we dare to give it a try.
