A celestial show
orchestrated
w/ vinyl harmonics

The shooting star
gasps in awe

#Marvelous bonhomie

Dewdrops sit silently on flowers ardent on blooming
Watching the union of water, air, fire, earth
Beneath trees breathing ephemeral happiness
As forests' sounds blow breeze on the dawn yawning fire
Binding unstirred dreams in the soft palm of peace

strangers you meet
strangers you love
strangers you part
strangers you miss

Listen to the wind
It speaks volumes in its touch
Warm with me today
Echoes bring tomorrows dreams
As whirlwind sonnets fly by

without you
cherry blossoms
are just blossoms

Issa

choose a path, aware of possibility
grounded in reality
endings do contain much the same
love, joy, heartache & pain
beyond the dynamic sum of parts
there lies more, a path w/ Heart
though siren wishes glitter
with #marvellous appeal
always choose the #deal that's Real

#vss365

false nights
neon promises

swallowed by
light of day

ashtray of regrets
stubbed deals

leaving a dispossessed
trail

In your poem
I will be that empty space
that you leave between

sweet and brine
muted and shine

I will be
that what is left
when you have put at rest
emotions and feelings
of the stuff that you are dealing

in that space
I will fly
unfettered
May be we will both heal#vss365

#vss365
monk, among his tender disciples, came to mainland market that evening,
just to test, to hear their clamouring beats standing in front of sparsely wrapped mannequins,
he got lost in decadent noise, he undressed & rob-ed back, the same dead, cold, forever exquisite,…

Gulmohar flowers gleam
A store of summer vibrancy

Richly red proudly claiming
A place under a yellow sun

I remember your face
Flaming a great #deal
Dancing to songs at our love station

And
Seasons play their part

Short lived Sakura falls
White noise of loss..
Sorry love..

A #deal
with the
devil

They
thought
victory
was theirs

But karma
had the
final win

The #deal -
To shower the
stars
on this wasteland

To strain the pieces of broken shards f/m his echo'ego

For,
every cut's a reward
& prayer my salvation
How thorn's
made to
look like the
petals strewn

Only to
justify the
self immolation?!

In hindsight
A soggy deal
#vss365

The world is so woke
so politically correct

I can't #deal with the
'Be kind' brigade
who pretend they don't hate

must we all bite our tongues
speak only of love
is it better to be fake
& phoney
show 1 side only?

we are all still vicious wolves
wearing sheep's clothing

#Vss365

Oh
How
the
#mirror
still
shows
your
reflection

And
your
sensual
fragrance
fills
up
my
surroundings

it's not easy to #deal with dark pages,
You can't erase,
you can't overwrite!
#vss365

melancholy
mists the #mirror ...
swamping
all thoughts of him
lost in lake shadows
