Reverie

I wanted to be sure this was our cottage              
Beside the Caribbean  sea countryside              
On the foothill of the beautiful Rome                        
So that we can make it our home.                                                               

We would walk between the long stars by the sea                                          
And feel the night magic in the night air
My hands locked by yours,on and over your hips                                          
Like a holy knot of togetherness                        
We would fly like moths at the end of a river                                                  
Waylaying those flare sparkles from the Adam’s ale                                        
We would bolt us in an empty bottle                        
So that we can capitulate  and surf over the waves                                        
We would voyage the woods                            
And collect berries in jars and goods                                                    
We would build fantastic citadel on the foreshore                                          
And carol together in a choir.                                

Call it an act of togetherness my love                    
While walking to the cathedral by Rome            
I said ur name to the evening stars                            
Clearly pronouncing it to the air     
To append lustre to the brightness.

Ramadan Kareem

I too dream, not with a greedy loft filled stomach, exhaustive daydreams Not like churl boss, not like rich beasts I dream like dead rivers do, of things lost,  irretrievable, I dream of the future, a history of time incalculable. All living beings by birth are free to live on Earth, But since we had a breath; caged until the cupidity's lust. Awful are our bodies and caged are our souls, Chained we dream to live and die for the caged goals. The shackled humanity, drenched in hunger, poor and death. The lousy world is starving with inanition Renunciation of human sanity Decays the boats, roots and the waning moon. The world descended to the pandemonium But God was there, The Allah, The Most Beneficent, The Most Merciful. Then God leaned over me, and in my ears whispered words of sweetness As the sea that enfold a brook That runs down to him, he enfolded me With writhe body and heartsore soul of despair Said, "Beggar woman who once had a home, Mother of drowned babies, su...

Crossing Midland Ferry

Current drifting below me! I see you face to face! Clouds of the north, swirling my psyche to haze, Stars fearing from the stormy rage, Birds fading away from the fuss of grave. A crowd of men and women in casuals, how curious you are to me! I had crossed the ferry of the scratch old, But never felt the agitation with that cold, Seeing the reflection of your sharps that bold, Had my eyes winked to the hazels you hold? Others will board the ferry and cross from coast to coast, Others will see the highland cosmic and little, Others will see the shipping from south to north, But we will enjoy the wayfaring sun sinking. You have waited, you bold beautiful minister, I fathom you - I love you - there is perfection in you, You furnish parts towards eternity, Great or small you furnish your parts towards my serendipity.

Silent the Monster

The clock strikes the time but you are still awake, Thinking & thinking about the day that awaits. Where you stand on the bridge in stillness & fear, For the monstrous scream that driven you here. Beneath you is a murky firth, between the two ends complain, The oceans you spun and you must sail strong. Your mind would be against to sail, But your heart should tell you to prevail. To be stronger but lighter than ever again. Hold on for the euphoric, Endured to conflate the numb prosaic. Silent the monster’s scream, To shine through the cold & dark dream. Triumph the battle over mysterious pain, Because there will be sunshine, no more rain. You can run away from the tears, Through the laughter of loved ones you must hear. You have all the right! And it is how the wounded souls bright. Cycle the storm until you drown, Push the thought of suicide away & and put the knife down. ---------------------------------------------...
