silently watching

age old wisdom
silently watches
patiently calling
waiting until
i am ready
to hear

SHATTERED

Fragment* s
Of  a  riven  heart
              Sc attered  on  th e  floor
   With  battered
            Smi t hereens  which  can
           Nev er  ever
       Ameliorate  whilst  stars
    Scintillate athwart the
   Gorgeous d*ome  of the heavens

The Raven

Most bi*  r  ds call me ugly but
   I'm be  a  utiful & intelligent
     than  v  ultures and most of
  all oth  e  r birds gracing
   the ve  n  *etian skies

#Ravens have long been associated with death and dark omens but the real bird is some what a mystery.

enter

enter
unnoticed
like a whisper
in my soul

cradle me
in your arms
don’t leave
me here

alone
inside my skin
howling
hollow wind

fill me up
drink me in
or
i’ll disappear

Sky's Finest Paintings

Sirius
opalescent, effulgent
twinkling, scorching, flickering
sky's brightest star, earth's nearest star
shimmering, blazing, blistering
polychromatic, luminous
Sun

Moods (loop poem)

Things will be rough if we are disgruntled
disgruntled voice makes others Grumpy
Grumpy feelings are always ungracious
Ungracious mood swings are nasty and huffy.

Smile on the face cheers up all
All the people around us feel good
Good moments shared,gives happiness
Happiness ultimately enhances our mood.
