All Goes As Unplanned

And it all commenced as everything starts, Untainted. Anticipating for a scene change. From different spectrums, yellow parts, Concrete to aqua pura, no stamp of estrange. Her school of fish, blowing stacks of caucasian, Like they owned Mother Nature’s salted season. So we inhaled the ceremonial occasion, Lamenting our age of callow reason. Florida’s finest camouflaged the lucid knave; He reproduced routine. Interposing confederacy, Resurrecting [...]

Conservation….

  … Does anything in this earth, ever perish? And disappear into nothingness and void? A leaf, a life, a flower, a song, a rainbow! A tree, a leaf, or a flower, when it withers The good earth receives it with pleasure. It dissolves with the mud, in its source. The roots take away the substances, And bring them back to life. The remnants of [...]

Uncertainty…

passions, love This night, these melodies, these festivities, My angel!, will vanish into thin air.. The dreams we fondle today, will yield to harsh realities. The mirth we hold on our lips, will fade to whimpers. It is perfect while it lasts, ecstatic, sweet, and passionate. Every moment a celebration! Every night an odyssey, through the shores of Lascivious pleasures and passions. Every morning, [...]

Game of the heart

Playing a game in the squash court, With rebounding emotions of the heart As the soft ball, till it bleeds and withers And the opponent decorating his lips with A deceptive smile and the gait of a winner, Walks away and you’™re left alone! The rules were fair, the play a barbarity Savage words and bitter strokes Yet I [...]
