#refreshing
my tissue is stained with red blotches
it's only two cuts though.
not a biggie and didn't hurt much.
I just blow
away the redness on my wrist
and smell the metallic scent.
kinda refreshing if you ask me.

I look at city lights
in the distance
They flicker
but quickly come back
and I feel that someone
somewhere understands
while the night air
awakens my warm skin
It gives us hope
new life

In August a breeze
You are enraptured and free
Like hills clouded skies
Like stars in deepest oceans
And like rain in Auburn eyes

I always hated the scorching heat
Summer always brought
I could never escape it
The undesirable feeling
That came along
Was the kind of warmth
That was too warm
And uncomfortable
As the heat engulfed my body
In an embrace
I could not free myself from
Not allowing me to function
Travelling the span of my entire body
Like critters all over my skin
Leaving me soaked in sweat
You were the cool breeze
That pressed against my forehead
An angel passing through
In this free trial of hell
I don’t know if you’ll leave
Seconds after arrival
But I thank you
All the same
For the comfort you bring
At least
For a little while
I had a taste of heaven

It is a brand new year
Time refreshing once more
I wonder what changes lie ahead
What 2020 has in store

Slowly, the seasons change
Flowers blooming, birds chirping
The season where nature shows off it's beauty
Sweets from spring is always fruity
Animals appear in their environment, just to keep it living
When midnight strikes, insects are always singing
The calming wind gives us chills
But also yet, it's always refreshing
Take another step into the grass
Remind yourself of where you are
Always remember to bring your compass
There you you go, playing on your guitar.

Small talks are refreshing,
Intellectual talks are mind stimulating
and deep talks are soul enriching.

Some people would say,
Are you Mad, Bad, Depraved or perverted?
He's so much younger than you.
I would say to some people, if that's what you think you have never known true love.
Age is just a number and only matters for fine wine and cheese
Young wine is sweet, bright and refreshing.
I'm in love, and refreshed, some people.

you kiss me the way
the breeze kisses
the treetops
and all I can think is
how refreshing

He reminds me of a cool breeze of air
He makes me smile
This scares me
I love this new experience
I hope he doesn’t **** me over
I hope he doesn’t take advantage of me
I hope he loves me for me

no ripple
on glistening pond
bucolic greenery
greeted sweet mornings
like apple muffins
dusted with
spice
pathways through
rainforest's half-light
hushed cathedral
birdsong rang true
retrieved to senses
a lilting lullaby's melodic
notes
then machinery
of life's happenchance
seared through undergrowth
chainsaw's presence
halted paradise
lacerations on earth's
lungs
reverberations hit
tremors appear
reach beyond
borders coddled close
as things find a new
place to roost and
grow

Rain
falling
in the stream
The savage winds
blow
One
thousand
leaves sail down
red, green, yellow
lost
The
willow
shakes and weeps
heads bowed strokes stream
sad
Light
it rises
It flies by
A fresh golden
sight

Wow! A beautiful sight to see
Extremely beautiful
New grass, gorgeous and green
This refreshing new grass
Has sprouted up overnight
So vibrant and rich,
What color!

upon waking from a splendid plunge
into the depths of deep dreamy restful sleep
anchors away set adrift this body electric,
which succombed instantaneously
(without counting sheep)
nor joining the make belive rank and file world
with the likes of little bo peep
an immediate notion arose
to latch onto and ignore
this most delightful, flight of fancy deed
(not ***** nor done dirt cheap),
but a natural function
one cannot overdose nor excede
the USDA quotidian requirement,
where cares and concerns
of an uncertain world freed
yet an asolute bare necessity for stayin' alive
plus richly textured unrivaled vista devoid of greed
additionally cost and gluten free, NON GMO,
zero caloric effortless need
(words of caution to take seriously to heart),
and note that if one doth not yield, but sure to read
the small print affixed like a label each mind
forcing to squeeze out every metaphorical
drop of open eyed juice
perhaps resorting to **** or speed
that silent slurred speech, physical lashing,
head dropping fatique
will invite Halloween aparitions, delusions,
grand hallucinations, et cetera
as if one smoked wacky ****
the forces of anatomical and physiological
heft will take charge ahoy
and blast at top notch nautical surge,
will wrest control against blistering,
festering against withering heights
delivering balms away at feeble attempts
to retain losing battle to remain alert oh boy
no matter how much effort summoned,
(even feigning wakefulness as a decoy)
the trappings of oblivion
i.e. sinking into profound dreamland,
whether an individual ascribes to be Jew or goy
which Maxwell House maxim
“the key to better relationships may be more sleep”
no mortal ought to take lightly,
but pay heed lest the grim reaper doth creep
stealthily and scythe lent lee steal
a haggard skiff of flesh and bone
whereat corporeal essence no more
will there be for the soul to keep.

My Aura
deep the heart of Pandora.
thick.
shimmering thoughts make me shiver.
Pandora.
my mind is occupied by irrelevant thoughts;
"What time do I need to wake up tomorrow?"
but I don't trust my own body
this is why I live in sorrow.
I created a machine called technology, this was meant to work for me but now... I follow?
I deny.
The fact that I push my freedom away because I'm too used to following.
I deny.
to follow the hypocrisy influenced by society when the minority is sober.

But something inside me is telling me that it has just begun.

Sometimes it rains a bit
And you aren’t prepared
But it can be rather pretty
So, don’t be so scared.
It cools the temperature
From the clouds above,
Makes a walk the kind
The kind you grow to love.
You won’t need an umbrella;
So what if it’s a smattering?
Nothing wrong with that,
A bit of misty spattering?
Just a bit of a shower
Nothing bad in that.
Be a very happy person,
Under the brim of a hat
A bit of a puddle at times
Depending on your shoes.
It is not a big tragedy
No reason for the blues.
It’s just you and nature
Enjoying the day together.
Mother Nature and child
Spending time with each other.
So go ahead and wander
Out in the misting rain.
Take a cleansing saunter
Let weather clear the brain.
Celebrate just being here
A world gone squeaky clean
Like a painting by Monet
In an artist’s magazine.

*You hide the Sun from me.
With your cool effervescent hues.
Like night whispers over fevered skin.
You mend me.*

*It is raining
Slow and steady
Not very light
Not very heavy*
When you ride your bike
The small drops pierce through your dress
It hits mildly on your eyes,
Makes your eyelashes heavy
With dripping water drops
Down to your nose and to your lips
It tastes cool and good
Compared to the demineralised water
of your household RO filter
It is raining mildly
Enough to wet you
Makes you cool and shiver lightly
Makes you fresh and cool
Gives you the energy
Better than any other means
It also brings back
A strange nostalgia
Which you can not connect
Immediately..
Is it the childhood memories ?
Is it the rainy school days ?
Is it the sweet memories of
Your dead beloved ones
Who shared many such rains in the past?
It rains mildly
Slow and steady
Not very light
Not very heavy
But enough to
Make you happy
Make you fresh
Make you calm
Make you a new person
Rejuvenating
Refreshing..
*It is raining mildly
Slow and steady*
