Lonely Heart

 

 

the taste of hope

in my orbit of desire

the lonely heart blossoms

under the cloudless sky

Omicron Pandemic

 

 

a wave of omicron

pandemic is upon us

challenging the immunity

levels of millions

yet, instead of fighting

the deadly bugs

with all your might and power

you spend your precious time

bending reality over the crescent moon

burning through endless memories of past love

and thinking of the glamour and passion

of the Eve that time forgot

you cry over spilled milk

like a child possessed

under the rising sun

Blue Mask

 


 

the angel in blue mask

peering through time

taking the post-covid world by storm

with endless desire

to save humanity

The Living Treasure

 

you are the living

treasure of my dreams

the gift of wonder that feeds my longing

the star that shines

through my heart

every minute of the day

 

in the beauty of the moment

you enlighten my soul

in the moist hour

breathing new life

into me

as the world moves

 

you sing my name

with lips of fire

and a flurry of laughter

warming my heart with love sublime

as bright stars shiver

in the distance

Fragrance of Spring

 

the magic fragrance

of spring runs through

my garden of wonder

in the first light of dawn

filling me

with endless pleasure

in the rapture

of love

my heart beats

for you under

the glow of beauty

as the earth moves

ancient land

longing for your blossoms
