I once had a lover who was like the Sahara Desert
So cold at night
and hot during the day.
Then one day I thought about
Jack Sprat and his wife

Those two had it rough in their relationship
I had to let my lover go with the wind
Having felt that cold in my face and heat in body
During the day
Only brought on sorrow and disgrace

Time shares is only good
At the time of purchase..
However, nothing last forever….

Death leaves a heartache no one can heal,
Love leaves a memory no one can steal. ~ Author Unknown
~~~~~~~~~~~
It rain heavily on the river in Kerala the next morning
I think it was a sign of things to come,
I remember our walks by the water

The warmth of the sun as it dampen your hair
this brought out your winsome boyish smile
as you playfully tossed a small pebble into the water
It became an instant Kodak moment for years to come:
We were so in love with nature that summer

I remember every moment how we held each other hands
Your loving touch, your kiss, your blue eyes
So trustworthy was I: Your lies were accumulating.
and my foolish heart was pumping harder and harder

Like a gallon of water in the desert heat: you made me fell in love with you
your love for me was like a battlefield and I were the unexpected enemy

I am still very fond of my captor, I smile from ear to ear- each time it rain heavily in Kerala
If you know your enemies and know yourself then you are on top of things:

Until death leaves a headache no one can heal: Quote:
And love no matter what: leaves lasting memories.

It’s hard to fight wrong perceptions
For they are etched so deeply in minds
Unbecoming reasons obliterate the real sense
When nothing makes sense anymore
Brazen display of the fault lines
Weaken the social fabric

Roger Turner - Poet
A darkened bar
An old guitar
A stage that once played host
To all the Delta greats and now
to Robert Johnson's Ghost

An old man
His spitting can
A boy from up the coast
Learning how to play the blues
In the home of Johnson's Ghost

You gotta feel the music boy
You sure don't feel too much
Your fingers skipping half the notes
You're playing double dutch
Slide it, let the music meld
That's what folks all want the most
You got to feel it, yes sirree
Like Robert Johnson's Ghost

Five hours passed
Time went fast
But what he learned the most
Was feel the notes
That were wrote
By Robert Johnson's Ghost

The spirit has to fill you
You have to suffer for the blues
You can't come in and play for us
In shiny, brand new shoes

The old man
his spitting can
Made the young boy cry
He played the notes
That Johnson wrote
on the day that Johnson died

Until you feel the music boy
And stop playing double dutch
You got to slide the fingers son
Don't use the guitar as a crutch
Remember where you're playing
And to who it still plays host
You're playing for the netherworld
And Robert Johnson's Ghost

Aimless walking rocky shores thinking of his higher self...

Luminous stoops,  picks up pretty rock.

"This marvel marble has found his crown angel chariot prince".
honey sweet
ripest purple beet
gleaming silver sword raising to the Sun."

Every song ends,
Is that any reason
Not to enjoy the
Music?

Every poem ends,
Is that any reason
Not to let the words
Fill your soul?

Every love ends,
Is that any reason
Not to enjoy it
While it lasts?

Every book ends,
Is that any reason
Not to let the author
Reach inside your
Heart?

Every heavy heart breaks,
Is that any reason
Not to let someone try
To fix it?

Lilian hit eighty-five,
Shot nine holes for forty-eight;
Drives her car not to be late.
Man alive, she's eighty-five.
That's not far off, Bro,
A few thousand weeks,
I ride my Shadow,
Shoot thirty-eight.
That's not far off, Sis,
A few thousand hits,
So I'm shooting for eighty-six,
Playing with my ***** and sticks.

You can climb to the mountain peak
But it won't set you free
You'll find it's lonely at the top
And the air is hard to breathe

You can search the ocean deep
For pearls pure and true
But in your search, I think you'll find
The water's cold and cruel

You can travel lands of brightest suns
In search of warmth to find
Abandon shelter that you've known
Just leave it all behind

But the sun will surely betray you
The mirage of bliss, scorched and burned
Perfection a dream that can't be reached
Another hard lesson learned

When your quest is finally over
You'll realize the love i had was true
But I won't be here with open arms
'cause you've no more roads to choose
for those who have been someone's last resort one too many times

I welcome my nights
and I knew you'd know I'd know
that if I listen to unchained Melody
I would have given up on our yesterday
without the praises the disappointments
Those long, long sigh during moments of passion:
Our Love was superficial in comparison:

until he appeared in my dreams
Suddenly, the sweet Gheorghe Zamfir
Unchained Melody soothe me: I became
The Greek Goddess you never heard of.

I am free, I am free
my last sigh, our last embrace
Has curl into dust bunnies, with one only reminder:
the brown jar of honey:
untouched sticky and outdated like
like your attempt to ****** me
Those negligees you once love
the color faded like yesterday tears
Everything in this world that we once share
Seem so unreal, I am free: free to love
With each breath, with each melody the intimidation
We were everything: I welcome those nights
However, I am now the Brave heart of my soul
My fear has subsides:  my smiles long overdue
A new secret revealed close all doors:
I was living in a fool’s paradise
