Cruising For The Lost Moon(Terza Rima)

That day dawned on a dark spread sea deadly
The moon was lost, he was bewildered much
Frenzied atonce he cruised advertently

Submarined in twirls of strong currents'clutch
Strived and strived, he could not spot his dear moon

Divine Force (terza Rima Sonnet)

Prayer is the answer to a troubled heart,
Challenges meant to be overcome and solved,
Faith in God is the best way to make a start.

Splendour of sunshine around- a ball of gold!
Winds-cool or stormy reach their destination,
Warm sun and wind, engulfing all in their fold.

Water, the elixir makes no distinction,
Energy giver-Fire, also smothers,
Trees do not produce fruits in isolation.

Associations-complex and a bother.
Get caught in the labyrinth, never be freed,
Life’s lessons-through experience can gather.

Getting rid of contempt, prejudice and greed
Accepting Divine Will engenders a new breed.

Today early morning

Today in the morning as I entered the lift
I happened to look in the mirror my movement so swift
It seemed as something caught my eye 
Yes, it's my reflection I saw it and sighed
When I sighed I saw my reflection sighing too
Is it a message I thought and heavier my heart grew 
What have I done where is my smile 
That is my power which helped me to wade miles
Is it because i am responsible wife, a mother 
And daughter who cares for parents sister and brother
But how does it matter, I love them a lot
But that someone in the mirror about whom I never thought 
Yes, it's me -my soul my being  
Forgotten completely though it's someone I should be seeing 
For I can make difference, win hearts and souls 
Only when I myself am happy and that should be my goal
So today I am making a promise to my every cell
I will never forget that I need to love myself
For he has made only one of each kind 
It feels good to know someone Like me is hard to find

Last Seconds(Ottava Rima Poem)

A tin cup scraping along iron bars, cup a' tea
Was even sweeter than honey and the honey-comb.
There were gleams in her perfect teeth and her sad esprit.
Her strange smell brought the breeze from her funeral home.
With hollow sad eyes, O Moon, you climb'st the night to see
Mad scientist’ of horror as bleeding piece of gnome.
She felt the dawn of hope and the sunset of despair
Leaves dancing across the grass, their shadow in the air.

On echoed hills, her voice was parched and glazed was her sight,
The sooner lily dies; the louder is its scent.
Tearing, roaring, she felt her painful soul in light,
In sweet coming death, her pitiful lament.
Her soul had terrified wings for her flight in the night.
She was cribb’d, confin'd in tears for this event.
Her legs bestrode the abyss, her rear'd arm held the pain
Her mind should 'scape whipping her memory in vain.

Babe

La reina del reggae!
Quiero que me digas que tu eres para mi
(Para mi, babe...)
Y que los dos juntos nos podemos seducir
(Seducir, babe...)
Llevame en la nube de lo que es la realidad
Llevame a bailar y dime que me vas amar
(Babe...) Si tu quieres yo tuya sere
(Babe...) Y por siempre te demostrare
(Babe...) que tu reina para ti sere
Te demostrare, yo te amare, y te lo probare
(Babe...) Si tu quieres yo tuya sere
(Babe...) Y por siempre te demostrare
(Babe...) que tu reina para ti sere
Te demostrare, yo te amare, y te lo probare
Dime que yo soy tuya
Que yo soy tu loba, yo soy tu chula
La que te enciende, la que te prende
La que en la mala siempre esta de frente pa' defenderte
Y no me importa lo que el mundo diga

Mystery of Love

I feel now a new and strange sensation
A feeling that I can't explain nor share
She's in my dreams and imagination
People may tease me but I'll never care
Because I can always do my best
Like I'm hunting for a hidden treasure
To fascinate her and not to impress
It is my sincere and true love, for sure

- This is an example of Ottava Rima.

Future Imperfect for friend Ben

The world today is in a dreadful mess.
No one accepts responsibility.
It seems that truth and honour matter less
than expedience apparently.
The only thing we value is success
although it’s been achieved dishonestly
The values which our forbears knew are lost
and everyone of us will bear the cost.

Life's Good

Wishing each day and praying along
I walk the path called life singing my song 
Somewhere I know that something awaits me 
Something I can feel but right now can't see
It's not a mirage it's real for sure 
For when I breathe the future it's divine it's pure 
Like a curious child I wait to unearth 
This mysterious future and celebrate it's birth 
For the day I meet my destiny I have lots to say 
For the journey itself is pleasurable each and every day
I am ecstatic, euphoric celebrating entranced
Somethings on it's way I am waiting for just a glance

Caught in my Compact

Terza Rima Sonnet
Caught in my Compact

Wade through the squalor, shaken and straining
Consciously, Head held high, anticipating
Storm breaks overhead and now ‘tis raining

Movement round me sluggish, on nerves, grating
Breathe deeply now, settling apprehension
Yet my heart is open, anticipating

Mind deliberates on my perception
Rain still gently falls and I absorb it
In this journey here from my conception

Glimpsing a bench, I walk over and sit
Sensations are strong, you come nearer
I close my eyes lean back, snooze for a bit

Open my compact, catch you in mirror
