beauty, song,
Sun brush slow as dawn's light breaks
kiss gently on this heart that wakes
warm up days til night stand guard
when breeze blows brisk and mighty hard
Tap lightly on her peeked cheek this morn
where thoughts of love and life are born
bring forth to her peace and hope
and faith in man from words God spoke
Impart comfort and ease in rays you share
lighten our load on that cross we bare
Rise up high and in blue skies do rest
soothe our souls with loyal hearts abreast
Sun brush slow as dawn's light breaks
Paint with grace 'pon swan still lakes

You and I, we are,
Two polar petals, laced with
Arctic blue moonshine
Of soft sweven-hymns
And sunburst apricity
Of aqua-gold tides,
Reminiscing mauve
Hours, when our love waltzed in teal
Faithful lakes hued with
Ivory ink of
Coral kismet, shimmering
In wine-auroras,
But now we just trace
Poisoned pixie-dust, upon
Each other's frail fate,
Sinking in folklores
Of shaded red canopies,
As I bleed stardust
In ebonies of
Hellfire heavens and we fade
Like smoked-ash comets;
For you and I, are
We Hemlock and ivy, swathed
In swan-shaped ballads
floating like hail on smudged graves?

At the edge of the sunburst horizon
sketched by the tinge of celestial hue
on your verdant meadow aglow
I imagine I’m a sparkling dew.
In the space of the seamless void
the canvas of azure gets unfurled
in your enticing sky enveloping
I imagine I’m a soaring free bird.
On the bank of the crystal stream
cradled in the reclined terrace high
in your luring rose garden abloom
I imagine I’m a fluttering butterfly.
Under the star-crowned amorous sky
you come to me through moonbeam blue
I imagine I’m an entranced poet lured
to write fervent lyric of love for you.

Morning delight
Fiery sunburst;
Elegant conversation
This paradox
Black upon white;
Yin-Yang contrast
Busy street corner
Each person alone;
Crowded solitude
Mall spectators
Browsing and looking;
Yet not seeing
I style a smile
To greet a stranger;
Sparkling sunburst
Valentine shoppers
Seeking to buy;
Love now barters

one day working
the frets
i discovered the song
and I played
it over and over
hoping she would
hear it in her distant
land where she
had sea and beach
long bush tracks
and a bike for
the lake’s perimeter
i dream that she
will hear it
still on an evening
sky and a darkly
hidden verandah
breathing my fingers’
lilting on my buzzing
sunburst axe and
love’s discordant harmony

Pulses repeated pulses
ripping to the core
I ache for so much more
Body spent content
but raging to be pushed hard
towards a wreckage lain lost
Thrust forth with tiny fingers
anchoring an aging frame
Enticing gasps of pleasure
tittered through the night
Pulses repeated pulses
take hold my weary might
squeeze past the apprehension
caress the sunburst light

love,
Falling so deeply into love's sunset
Sunburst of laughter never to upset
Enjoyment of loves tenderness is my advocate
Time approaches ever so fast, for loves last embrace
Burning desire only for lovers paradoxes
Taken so fast in your strong arms of grandeur
For each question is how long can lover's endure
Together we will glide through out each detour
Only to find their is no others touch so pure

A pillow rests beneath wavy locks of sunburst hair,
eyelids shallow, folding closed over ocean deep eyes,
porcelin arms, as ivory as the snow cross over a warm white bear,
little pouting lips purse and twitch with a hidden smile as dreams take over,
simple words, sweet and true slip from them with a breath,
"Tomorrow will be the best day of my life,
because it will mean that I get to spend
another perfect day, with you by my side."
a gentle sigh escapes "Goodnight my love."

Night lifts dark veil from the face of silk sky,
sunburst horizon blossoms golden dawn,
on flushing meadow dreams of dew drops glow
while on the dancing blades of grass they lie.
Dense shadow of dark cloud melts on my face,
where you see my yearning grows wings to fly
like a butterfly flitting on rapture,
makes an enticing motif soaring high
on the first sunbeam trailing the night gone.
Dreams of dew drops glow on flushing meadow
where the buds unfurl my love you descry.

I sing allured the sunshine song for you,
night lifts silver shroud from curved satin sky.
The canvas of draped dawn sunburst hues dye,
embellish pearl meadow with dulcet dew.
I float on day dream in fervent morn new,
an enthralled nightingale flying you by,
I sing allured.
Radiance flows on your face from the blue,
to echo my song in your heart I try.
Twilight golden dusts all around me fly,
in the whistling wind rippling gently through,
I sing allured.

A soft excited glowing sunburst center shows her love to flying things
a cheerful strawflower shows love to grasshoppers whose legs zing
Papery bracts pose as petals, fooling beetles falling from forest trees
Her patchwork quilt attracts butterflies, humans, and native bees
Butterflies flock to the quilt of the meadow, enjoying strawflower reveal.
Reveling in the happiness of the day and the joy that they now feel

At sunrise I sailed on river called youth,
meandered to search for lonely life's truth.
You came on board holding my hands firmly,
through storm surge we navigated sternly.
At dreamful dawn when sky donned sunburst hue,
love weaved in heart spectral tapestry new.
The river will flow to the senile sea,
where the sunset splendor we’ll wait to see.
At journeys end I’ll give my last flower,
you’ll see its tinged smile in the twilight hour.

SUMMER SERENADE
The spring when it departed left for me
A bunch of rose I kept in my wet heart
Drenched with love as tender as dew could be
So, they won’t wilt in the heat of sunburst.
On midsummer moonlit night I’d take you
To the bank of a brook through the star dust,
I’d open my heart, the roses you’d view
Make bouquet of my love for you to last.
In musical murmur of sparkling stream
For you I'd compose my love’s symphony,
I’d see in your gleaming eyes grow my dream
I’d keep in heart as I meet destiny.
After I end my summer serenade
Nothing for me would remain to be said.

A poem lovely as a stream
Rhythmic flow creates fluid dream.
Resonant vale curved in jade hill
Draped by ornate trees standing still.
Golden sun seeps through canopy
Current shines gems of fantasy.
Water drops from cascade soar high
Toward the musing serene sky.
Pebbles are lured by tuned murmur
Ripples make lyric, heart charmer.
Suffused with sunburst dawn sky’s hue
I float love in the stream to you.

loss, lost love,
I lost you in ruins of the past
In distant quicksand you collapsed
You made no deep footprints to last
Faded before the time elapsed.
You didn’t come home at sunset
I lost you in ruins of the past
You froze with night I hadn't met
Dawn didn’t reach you the sunburst.
In woods you were shadow trees cast
You didn’t come out in meadow
I lost you in ruins of the past
You still wait for my hands I know.
In trying journey you did stray
The storm hit you hard in full blast
The sky fell on your lone pathway
I lost you in ruins of the past.

In the sunburst sensuous hued dawn,
the surging stream within my heart
cascades in the vale of chromatic joy,
while on the beguiled banks of yearning
you turn into a flitting butterfly.
I flow with the surge of foaming fervor,
and you fly alongside with flirty flair,
cross the plateau of passion together
to the blooming dale of flowers yonder,
laying threads of spectrum to brace us.
Before I reach the bay of the twilight bliss,
meander awhile on the slope of quietude,
weaving the tapestry of designed dreams
with the lilting lattice of your charm dipping
in my flowing heart, making a lured splash.

Star-starved opaque night
condensed in darkness
petrified cold niche
of my stone carved mind.
Flattened sentiments
accreted numbness
layer on layer
until the time came
my horizon rose
from cauldron of mist
with sunburst passion
fervent hues painted
the sky of your heart
in dark debris bloomed
a new dawn for me.
Garden of desire
lured the butterfly
disappeared for long.
Flitting on yearning
it returned with dream.
On its latticed wings
I flew enraptured
in your fragrant air.

In the heartswell of night, I clasp the key
and treasure the light that shines on me,
through glistered flecks of drifting snow,
and starlit dark and moonbeam glow.
Holding my breath and biding my time,
in the back of my head plays a nursery rhyme,
'till gradient clouds of indigo hue
herald the fade to skies of blue.
Awe and wonder reflects in my eyes
that squint against the sunburst rise;
all shadows of doubt then chased away,
that I might live to see the day.

SCALING PURPLE HEIGHT
The crimson sun flushes edge of horizon blue,
mixed hue from toppled pallet flows on cloud.
The maiden sky blushes, dons an apparel new
with an astral motif woven on purple shroud.
Wings of zephyr bring you at sunburst dawn,
a blue bird from lost nest I fly, soar in delight
in your painted sky until you become my own,
our hearts together start scaling purple height.
