In the black porcelain of night
I searched the skies and its glittering voids
I implored dazzling Venus to restore our fates
I wandered in lost chasms of spinning asteroids

Cancer and its faint suns
Sang the quiet songs of sentimental longing
And I circled like a planet around the fairest of the stars
Pleading the gods to cure my heart from its thickening scars

Mercury seemed to fly on wondrous wings of blazing fire
As I explored the glorious immensity of a celestial empire
Jupiter and its bright moons hovered like diamonds in the sky
While I gazed at trails of brilliant stardust and speeding comets flashing by

And there you were
A shining deity in a shrine of gold
Playing your magic lyre and humming soft gentle odes
And I knelt before the majesty of your immeasurable might
Your mane endowed with a silver sheen
Miraculously shimmering in the black porcelain of night

A World Sublime
The valiant fiery heart of youth
Still throbs inside my *****
No poetic verse to mourn long-lost days
Is being sung in melancholy’s dark chasm

The bird’s tune wakes with the dawning sun
And the morning leaves softly hiss their sacred hymns
Whispering enchanting tales of a shiny golden age
Yearning for precious harmonies and rampant wild rhythms

The strings are strung on God’s graceful majestic violin
And mighty sounds soar in celestial realms summoning all the angels
Melodious harps, otherworldly lutes and unimaginable lyres vibrate in perfect unison
As gracious singers sing high poems and pluck their heavenly mandolins

Let’s chant a song divine, let’s pay homage to a world sublime!
Begin the music, play the joyful tambourine
Behold and see how all the grief is no longer in me!
It's been cast out, dissipating completely
In the sky’s mesmerizing blue and the earth’s bright dazzling green!

Your Soft and Silent Way
And I would like to tell you that I love you
In a very discreet and silent way
I would like to lie down by your side
During the long hours
Of a hot and sticky summer day

I would love to look into your brilliant eyes
With ecstasy and kindness
And in them I shall see
An infinite ocean of desire
Where ethereal trails of enthusiasm
So eagerly reveal themselves
And burn
Like golden flames of fire

I would like to be with you
Just for one day
When magic and fate shall intertwine
And I shall gladly give in
To the sweet sound of your heartbeat
As it gently pulsates to the music
So beautifully astounding and sublime

For all dreams are accessible
And my thoughts can’t possibly go astray
As I bow my head to reverie
And imagine the unreserved romantic interludes
Of your soft and silent way

You, Me and the Sea
We laugh, we smile
We stare in the far-off distance
Across a soft blue horizon
Across the bright mesmerizing gold
Of the nameless shores of infinity
Let’s stay here forever
Let’s stay here a while
You and I together
Can climb the hills of eternity
And swim the rough seas beyond finality
Can you hear the ocean waves?
They speak the voices of our souls
They sound just like oblivion
And you are my one-time companion
Painting the summer skies
With immaculate white clouds
Listening to ethereal angels sing
Dressed in heavenly shrouds

You are subtle and delicately sensual
And your glances are inviting and immortal
I give you eloquence in words
You whisper unforgettable songs
Knowing all too well
This love is brief and ephemeral

My grief will merge with glee
When all is said and done
When precious thoughts
Will fly and soar up high
In a vast and cosmic black sky
When my soul is blissful
And my heart is undone

My grief will merge with glee
Each and every time I'll reminisce
You, me and the sea

Grains of Sand
You are eternally out of my grasp
Your intense heart-stirring kisses can be savoured only in dreams
In kingdoms made from sheer illusion
Where flowers bathe in waters of long-lost enchanted streams
Where icy coldness is banished and newly-found hope thrives
On everlasting elusive notions
That continuously rule our short-lived lives

You are the music maker
And I the dreamer of dreams
We both like to wander in far-off realms
Where kings and queens ride majestic white unicorns
On a remote and lonely beach
Completely forgotten and out of anyone’s reach

Your sweet melodious songs sound like psalms
On a gloomy winter Sunday
And my poetry is for the light-hearted and gay
So why not come away with me?
Why not hold my hand?
Let’s take off on a wild audacious journey
Let’s venture beyond the familiar spaces
And the unknown shores
Of this magnificent ethereal land
And I will be forever spellbound
Paving my way with you
On soft and golden grains of sand

Illusion
I have to confront my innermost thoughts
With intrepid strength and bravery
Yet their pessimism is flagrant
And seems to conspire against me

I have to visualize your impassioned ardour
And imagine you near
As I kiss your soft sensuous lips
And embrace all that I hold dear

I have to sleep sleepless nights
And dream vivid horrifying dreams
Wake up in a cold-sweat fever
As I navigate in the misty dark waters
Of desolate uninhabited streams

Illusion and its wild companions
Do not abandon me as I stray
In fantastic realms of inspired imaginings
That flood my mind
All throughout the day

Forgotten Love
Imagination is my only friend
On a day like today
When the angels of dawn have come around
Once more to spread their lights
And to remind me that your sweet love
Has suddenly gone astray

Last night it was so peacefully still
When you lay here, right by my side
But this new morning brings much sorrow
And this bitter harsh reality
Surely I can’t abide
Unless my imaginings can paint a vibrant picture
Of a hopeful invigorating tomorrow
And yesterday’s glee I can easily capture
Or somehow borrow

All seems so meaningless and futile now
As I sit here in wretched lonely silence
To reminisce our forgotten love
That was once beautiful and true
And I’m hovering in dark and dreadful spaces
Deprived of passion’s gentle softness
And the blissful heavenly wonder
Of amazing skies of blue

As Surreal as You May Seem
As surreal as you may seem
I do behold and praise your grandeur
And though set apart and far away
I embrace you with a fervent love
That never seems to go astray

So let me explore your magical realm
Of rhythms, sounds and restless beats
Let me gently delve into its sweet complexity
I wish to thoroughly be engrossed in you
Engrossed in a moment’s heat
A moment which will last a lifetime
A moment when our hearts shall meet

All Things are Possible
The soft sunshine sparkles and glistens
Like a white iridescent moonbeam
Reflecting the still quiet tranquillity
Of an enchanting forest stream

Through my window I can reach out
For an ethereal glimpse of paradise
For skies of blue
And tender songs of dragonflies

The greenest buds and thriving flowers
Gently bathe in sweet rain showers
Until the sun’s radiance returns
To softly caress my face
Reminding me of the delicious warmth
Of your heartfelt embrace

Low clouds have stopped
Swirling in greyish skies of thunder
As angry storms of lightning give way
To fields of bloom and amazing wonder

And my thoughts rise
Soaring in heavens above
Visualizing wild waves
Of your sublime never-ending love

All things are possible
And I am at peace
Engrossed in hope’s light
That enhances the beauty
Of liberating spring-time release

— The End —
