an iceberg and a reporter
an Iceberg and a reporter
Near a village in Alaska, an enormous iceberg drifted filling the bay with fear and wonder
A journalist in the local paper saw something moving on the top of the berg, intrigued he wanted to see what it was he had seen
A Sunday morning when the people sat in church, he alone, not telling his mum climbed the berg
we saw the photos of him climbing steep walls
of ice, walking on the latter part, and a photo of him looking down at the village
he saw many footprints and concluded that someone lived on the berg, but a storm broke...

Plenum Dominium
I saw the crescent moon quite clear
and did not think I would
since brume of late had been severe
and forecast not so good.
And so it was with great surprise
when no clouds could be seen
when my wet weather jaded eyes
met beams from Queen Selene!
It was a double take I took
through sight in disbelief
at what I felt the Earth forsook
when clouds where gushing grief.
But by the moonlight I was blest
from Luna's sickle shape
apex clipping toward the west...
and heaven stunned agape!

When life's in a shit
When your life
is in a shit
Don't dodge it!
Instead,
Take it in your hand,
Even if it smells as bad
as it can.
Smear it on the face,
who tripped you in
such a place.
Let the jackass know
that it's your motto-
"I can handle anything
whatever life brings in!"

Divinity and laundry baskets
Seeking meaning
soul teeth weaning
filling space
we can't escape
it's just all wrong
living in a state of grace
as if we're in a race
living
is the
state of grace
and my overflowing
laundry basket
is just
a manifestation
of the divine
soul teeth weaning
filling space
we can't escape
it's just all wrong
living in a state of grace
as if we're in a race
living
is the
state of grace
and my overflowing
laundry basket
is just
a manifestation
of the divine

Scented Chapters
With the essence of mahogany
scented chapters in time
in nature's symphony
listening to evidence
of shadows passing
fragrance of tomorrow's song
cascading down a rainbow
with the essence of mahogany
scented chapters in time
in nature's symphony
listening to evidence
of shadows passing
fragrance of tomorrow's song
cascading down a rainbow
with the essence of mahogany

IN THE MIDSUMMER HEAT
In the midsummer heat
our blues are in retreat.
Joie de vivre in the street,
the disco pounds its beat.
Dresses are less discreet;
bare legs and sandalled feet
roving eyes' gazes meet.
The flirtatious greet.
our blues are in retreat.
Joie de vivre in the street,
the disco pounds its beat.
Dresses are less discreet;
bare legs and sandalled feet
roving eyes' gazes meet.
The flirtatious greet.

Rebirth
Death is not destruction.
The wheel of life turns endlessly.
From smoke comes fire, from fire comes ash,
From ash springs life again.
Breath is born anew.
The fall of a tree is death,
The sprout of a seed is life.
Momentary sorrow, eternal peace.
The eternal rhythm of time.
The soul is neither born nor dies.
It flows through the ages.
Like a river to the ocean,
Life and soul journey toward liberation.
Rebirth again, death again.
The body fades, the soul endures.
Creation is infinite,...
The wheel of life turns endlessly.
From smoke comes fire, from fire comes ash,
From ash springs life again.
Breath is born anew.
The fall of a tree is death,
The sprout of a seed is life.
Momentary sorrow, eternal peace.
The eternal rhythm of time.
The soul is neither born nor dies.
It flows through the ages.
Like a river to the ocean,
Life and soul journey toward liberation.
Rebirth again, death again.
The body fades, the soul endures.
Creation is infinite,...

Incredible India: My motherland
Ah, to this land of the monsoons
or should it have been the sunsoons?
Yet for frozen land tourists,
a tropical hot boon.
Where bullock carts, stray dogs,
horse carriages, goats and cows
pedestrians, , bikes and rickshaws
scooters, trucks, motorbikes and cabs
all compete together in quirky
medley of traffic jams
On crammed roads you could
ram into bulls and rams
So brakes forever screeching,
the cars forever honking, hooting
while beggers begged and pickpockets
could go a' looting on a footing ...
