Daybreak!
Shine bright, moonlight, before you set
And briefly comport with dawn's early light
That final glow of empyrean night
The likes of which I can't soon forget...
Even as I welcome the rising sun
Trailing the plunge of your westward drift
By Antemeridian...lullaby lift...
Declaring another Earth umbrage done!
And with Morpheus too, you well conspire,
With the last of your sinking beams,
To place my soul in odd sundry dreams
Safe from Apollo's diurnal fire...
So the midnight mind may soon recover
The wits to watch you once again...
And briefly comport with dawn's early light
That final glow of empyrean night
The likes of which I can't soon forget...
Even as I welcome the rising sun
Trailing the plunge of your westward drift
By Antemeridian...lullaby lift...
Declaring another Earth umbrage done!
And with Morpheus too, you well conspire,
With the last of your sinking beams,
To place my soul in odd sundry dreams
Safe from Apollo's diurnal fire...
So the midnight mind may soon recover
The wits to watch you once again...

Lay Among The Shadows
Lay among the shadows
And watch
With clear eyes.
For the moment,
That eternal hour
Has now consumed me.
No sounds from darkness,
No lights from stars,
The soul has gathered
Like a silent storm
Which waits patiently.
The hours grow
As the whispers awaken,
And the last hours
Tremble
For their long awaited
Sorrow.
And watch
With clear eyes.
For the moment,
That eternal hour
Has now consumed me.
No sounds from darkness,
No lights from stars,
The soul has gathered
Like a silent storm
Which waits patiently.
The hours grow
As the whispers awaken,
And the last hours
Tremble
For their long awaited
Sorrow.

The Sun, The Moon, The Sky, The Stars
The Sun
The Moon
The Sky
The Stars
Without them, it would be kinda hard
The Sun
is a beacon
The Sun
I am a keepin
The Sun she is so great
She showers me with love and light
And tonight when she is gone
And in the darkness, oh tonight
The Moon will keep me going
With her light in the night
I shouldn't be scared, cause I know she'll hold me tight
The Sky, she's my best friend and my sister too
Without her, I'd be lost, with no idea what to do
She gives clouds full of luscious...

sky
sacred heart writhing in pain
I sing to the darkness
it intently listens to my song
no one else hears, only the infinite
I vibrate with feeling
sorrow so easy to conceal from humanity
flows from my soul onto the air
it's frequency picked by those above
in the bleak I am known
in the onyx kingdom, loved
my unruly pain divine
it is given to me to flavor my spirit
melancholy notes comingle with happiness
watered down regrets
inside me I ache
the infinite feels my hurt
reflected back to me with...

Oak Island
Take me to Oak Island, for I found the treasure in a dream.
Take me to Oak Island, 42..42..90 jewels a many in between.
Diamonds, emeralds, and rubies... the most beautiful eyes have ever seen, take me to Oak Island where you and I can rule as King and Queen.

The Sky Fairies
Bouncing upon
Pillowed blue-grey clouds
That hang in the midst
Of an Azure sky
The gleeful shrieks
Of the sky fairies
Are muffled
By the whistling wind
Which in turn
Sets aeolian harps
To play
Creating a both surreal
And strange
Ethereal sound
And as the fairies bounce
They poke holes in the clouds
Which then leak
Onto the now
Moistening earth below
As each fairy
Holds tight
Attaching themselves
To these dewy droplets
Drifting downwards
There fall
Broken by the...

cerulean skies
rolling hills beneath cerulean skies
mimicking the ocean, forming clouds like foam caught in pacific tide
sail away in a hot air balloon, and forget the ground life, for a while
it’s easy to get lost in it all, but dust stings
a summer breeze will take control
let go.. you know it’s time
and they’ll see how beautifully your auburn hair glows, as it approaches the sun
you might ask yourself:
“how far?”
dangerously so, perhaps..
whoever told you surrender was easy, is a coward
but you are not
trust is a key...

Nature
It's easy to search
For inspiration outside
When you feel empty
Just look around you
And let nature captivate
Your senses with awe
The world you live in
Is full of wonderful things
Waiting for your eyes
To notice them all
With a sense of interest
And curiosity
Don't you wonder
How long do butterflies live?
In their fragile state
Or how many stars
Light the sky on starry nights?
I sometimes wonder
I was bedazzled
By the sight of twinkling stars ...

Evanescence
Wispy, whispered clouds crawl
lazily across retreating midnight
as if they, from fleeting experience
know nothing will last forever.
Sublime sun’s shine awakens
boldly beneath the sleeping horizon
as if he, from steadfast observation
believes he will be the one to persist.
But the munificent moon just smiles
kindly across the morning divide
as if she, from gathered wisdom
has learned the clouds are right.
lazily across retreating midnight
as if they, from fleeting experience
know nothing will last forever.
Sublime sun’s shine awakens
boldly beneath the sleeping horizon
as if he, from steadfast observation

[NaPoWriMo 2022] New Moon
New Moon
I noticed the new moon appearing
On my way to the mosque
For tarawi prayer this evening
It was a beautiful sight
A perfect crescent
Delicately painted
In the night sky
The month of Ramadhan
Is here again
A month full of goodness and reward
I offered a prayer of gratitude
At the sight of a new moon
Grateful that I'm alive to witness it
Allah has given me another chance
To atone for whatever sins
I committed before
Hidden or known to others
It fills my heart with Joy ...

Looming Canicular Days in Triple Digits
2 / 30
Looming Canicular Days in Triple Digits
I suppose I chose this, these sweltering summer days and nights
Moved here for a variety of reasons ----
Smog-less skies flooded with powdery baby blues
& not a cloud to shade me from the sun
amidst the etiolated hues
Thinking aloud
Fixated now on the palm tree’s drooping limbs
never noticed before how here in Southern Arizona
their leaves glisten, so much so. . .
looking like Christmas tinsel
silver strands dripping into shiny dross
Day-dreams, ...
