Celestial Horde
Celestial Horde
From the skies they rouse,
Filling the coast with fog
The warriors strung arrows,
The battle shalt be fought!
The descending celestial horde
Clashes with the swords,
And lightening strikes hard
Leaving the water scarred
Beauty of sea is lost
To wrath of the storms,
Silence surrenders at last
The tides expand their form!
And suddenly a light glows,
From far beyond the sea,
The water spurts and flows,

Emergency Exits - Acrostic Sonnet
In times of stress essential answers sought
Sudden surface in a subtle way.
Space and time dissolve, or interplay
Unconsciously until the flash is caught.
Enlightenment’s attained. Yet who may thought
Describe, synaptic, instant reflex-play
Embracing every aspect of life’s sway?
Split-second signals sent, received, rewrought,
Expand horizons, energize, consort,
Capture pictures which, translated, grey
Open up, disperse, may drive away.
Unlimited, our scope sets fears to naught.
Rise to each challenge with untrammelled mind,
Soar through massed cloudbanks, darkness leave behind.

Bethlehem
Diminutive glance like a fleeting finch
Moment where love surpasses knowledge
No touch just the scent of lemon flowers
Opaque emotion of simple connection
Transparent perception
We carry seeds
We bring hope deep like spring
Like bustling bees building their nest
Free me from great swelling words
No swords of proposition
Narrow passages with rites to the lonely
Ceremony of loves new morning
Hear the waves deep under the surface
Meet the eyes of the rich homeless
Gracious kindness shines
Expand my family to the by ways
All the broken sing 'Silent Night'
Every stranger was born in Bethlehem

Running away
Life I am trying to run away
This is my life, a life and life
I do no what is now,
And it looks alike
Life defines only
Reproduction.
My life
I single
Want to
Leave
My love, my thought
But not taking in my own hands
I sacrifice everything for loved one
But,
I shed only
Tears.
Like elasticity I can't expand
More and more.
My life as large and too small

The happiness i feel at your achievements
The happiness i feel at your achievements reflects the happiness you feel at mine...
Friends expand the pleasures of such moments, as mine in yours, and yours in mine, combine...
The same when we look forward to our futures: so much more unfolds when there are 2!
Populating your proposed adventures gives me a joy that mine must give to you...
We've been through much, and will be through much more, but traveling together is more fun...
Whatever life and love may have in store,2 is always preferable to 1...
Your graduation thus becomes my pleasure: your happiness is mine, a double treasure.

Love In Motion
My heart,
only ye can snatch
pleasure ye manufacture
when my heart expand
thy squeez
blessed me dreams
ever my eyes blind
the hope always
just when a lip touchs
but any of thy kisses
open way, when loss
and thy compass shadow
show my direction
to heart of yours
Thy unique smile
add bonus to my earth
when germs decided
to blow my days
and when touch arrived

De Profundis Clamavi
Have pity, You alone whom I adore
From down this black pit where my heart is sped,
A sombre universe ringed round with lead
Where fear and curses the long night explore.
Six months a cold sun hovers overhead;
The other six is night upon this land.
No beast; no stream; no wood; no leaves expand.
The desert Pole is not a waste so dead.
Now in the whole world there's no horror quite
so cold and cruel as this glacial sun,
So like old Chaos as this boundless night;
I envy the least animals that run,
Which can find respite in brute slumber drowned,
So slowly is the skein of time unwound.

Prognosis
perhaps i will miss you
but i know
it will only be for a certain
while
then temporarily there will
be uncertainty
of what i can do in your absence
time, time, more time
at a snail pace of sorrow and then
in between there is this emptiness
that starts to expand
like a cold air under the bed
moving towards the window
scattering to the
sky
and then
i look back and see myself

To Her Portrait
This that you see, the false presentment planned
With finest art and all the colored shows
And reasonings of shade, doth but disclose
The poor deceits by earthly senses fanned!
Here where in constant flattery expand
Excuses for the stains that old age knows,
Pretexts against the years' advancing snows,
The footprints of old seasons to withstand;
'Tis but vain artifice of scheming minds;
'Tis but a flower fading on the winds;
'Tis but a useless protest against Fate;
'Tis but stupidity without a thought,
A lifeless shadow, if we meditate;
'Tis death, tis dust, tis shadow, yea, 'tis nought.

Through Foulest Fogs
THROUGH foulest fogs of my own sluggish soul,
Through midnight glooms of all the wide world's guilt,
Through sulphurous cannon-clouds that surge and roll
Above the steam of blood in anger spilt;
Through all the sombre earth-oppressing piles
Of old cathedral temples which expand
Sepulchral vaults and monumental aisles,
Hopeless and freezing in the lifeful land;
I gaze and seek with ever-longing eyes
For God, the Love-Supreme, all-wise, all-good:
Alas! in vain; for over all the skies
A dark and awful shadow seems to brood,
A numbing, infinite, eternal gloom:
I tremble in the consciousness of Doom.
