POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
Words are a power that has wings—when they form poetry, they concoct dreams. So much can be said in so few words—human emotions unfurl in streams. As the weaver of words that invoke the soul, let us journey together in the life that unfolds.
Dancing Beauty
As I watched you dance, entranced,
My heart quickened in a rhythmic dance.
With each graceful motion, a chance,
To witness beauty, a sweet romance.
The elegance of your moves, a trance,
Passion exuding, a captivating advance.
I stood mesmerized, in a trance,
As you wove a dance, a poetic lance.
You, an angel in fluid stance,
A rare divine beauty, a cosmic dance.
My heart skips a beat, in a trance,
Whenever our eyes meet, love's enhance.
My heart quickened in a rhythmic dance.
With each graceful motion, a chance,
To witness beauty, a sweet romance.
The elegance of your moves, a trance,
Passion exuding, a captivating advance.

Broken Ribs
Bruised ribs sting less than a wounded heart,
When they decide to distance, let them depart.
Give your all, exhaust every endeavor,
When you've done your best, let the dawn sever.
In the midst of chaos, face it with grace,
Gather the fragments, learn, and embrace.
Repeat the cycle, from each episode gain,
In life's twists and turns, restart the refrain.

Gather the fragments, learn, and embrace.

In life's twists and turns, restart the refrain.

Redemption
We spoke in shadows of disdain,
Words flung like arrows, causing pain.
Bruises lingered, scars unseen,
Yet more words, a cruel routine.
Unspoken truths, incomplete,
Silent echoes, a steady beat.
Our love, a victim of the fray,
Eroded slowly, day by day.
In the hushed spaces, we never said,
The depths of feelings left widespread.
A conscious dent, we failed to make,
Silent reverberations, love at stake.
Between the lines of hate and fate,
A chance for healing, never too late.
Let's mend the...

Lovers' Abode
My heart in romance, a fiery flame,
Independent soul, with no one to tame.
A constant debate with no end in sight,
In the realm of love, I take flight.
A lover's heart, an adventurer's claim,
In the dance of life, I find my aim.
Yet, within you, conflicts cease,
My essence finds home, a sweet release.
Now, in your presence, the debates find rest,
A peaceful union, my heart's quest.
No more arguments, no endless strife,
With you, I've found my rhythm, my life.
Independent soul, with no one to tame.
A constant debate with no end in sight,
In the realm of love, I take flight.
A lover's heart, an adventurer's claim,
In the dance of life, I find my aim.
Yet, within you, conflicts cease,
My essence finds home, a sweet release.
Now, in your presence, the debates find rest,
A peaceful union, my heart's quest.
No more arguments, no endless strife,
With you, I've found my rhythm, my life.

Who am I?
The reflection in the mirror,
The presence within,
The identity I believe,
The perception others glean.

Whats Up?
In a profound slumber, I exist,
What unfolds is but a dream,
Moments slip away,
And I merely shimmer in the gleam.
One day, this will all conclude,
I shall awaken then,
To comprehend it entirely,
And at last, say, "What's up?"
What unfolds is but a dream,
Moments slip away,
And I merely shimmer in the gleam.
One day, this will all conclude,
I shall awaken then,
To comprehend it entirely,
And at last, say, "What's up?"

In God We Trust
In God we trust,
With full faith,
We look up
And into the depths we wade.
For we seek,
And we strive,
Yet never lose hope,
Until our last breath arrives.
Someone watches over,
In silent vigil,
His purpose veiled,
Yet its significance, integral.
With full faith,
We look up
And into the depths we wade.
For we seek,
And we strive,
Yet never lose hope,
Until our last breath arrives.
Someone watches over,
In silent vigil,
His purpose veiled,
Yet its significance, integral.

Walk in the Moonlight
Join me in my dreams tonight,
We'll stroll through the woods, just us in sight.
Holding hands, in silence profound,
Under the stars, and the moon looking down.
Let's kindle a fire, keep it burning bright,
Till the break of dawn, in the soft moonlight.
We'll stroll through the woods, just us in sight.
Holding hands, in silence profound,
Under the stars, and the moon looking down.
Let's kindle a fire, keep it burning bright,
Till the break of dawn, in the soft moonlight.

Radiance in Your Name
Inside me unfolds a world's embrace,
Where myriad words in endless grace.
Within, one poetry, a love untamed,
In your name, a radiant flame proclaimed.
Where myriad words in endless grace.
Within, one poetry, a love untamed,
In your name, a radiant flame proclaimed.

Wild Mustang
I revel in the chaos of my mind,
A wild mustang, untamed, unlined.
Across green meadows, it freely roams,
Resisting the shadows the world intones.
I contemplate a stern approach,
Disallowing procrastination's encroach.
Yet, within, a sense of sorrow,
Taking freedoms in foolish morrow.
A wild mustang, untamed, unlined.
Across green meadows, it freely roams,
Resisting the shadows the world intones.
I contemplate a stern approach,
Disallowing procrastination's encroach.
Yet, within, a sense of sorrow,
Taking freedoms in foolish morrow.

Empherial Memories
Countless memories, fallen by my side,
Like winter leaves in a frosty stride.
I sought to embrace them, keep them near,
Yet nature played the bruiser, crystal clear.
Now, as the breeze dances through the air,
I contemplate how many will forever fare.
I aim to cling, to hold on with all my might,
Yet they drift away, into the new light.
Like winter leaves in a frosty stride.
I sought to embrace them, keep them near,
Yet nature played the bruiser, crystal clear.
Now, as the breeze dances through the air,
I contemplate how many will forever fare.
I aim to cling, to hold on with all my might,
Yet they drift away, into the new light.
