The colour of water
water nymph flow
how I long for nautical arms
adrift
breeze
sea opens up
in tiny folds
adjusting
leafy fingers
comb my hair
braiding greens
betwixt
lulling locks
in auburn flow
an ardent sun
how I long for nautical arms
adrift
breeze
sea opens up
in tiny folds
adjusting
leafy fingers
comb my hair
braiding greens
betwixt
lulling locks
in auburn flow
an ardent sun

Summer Squash
my mom
had a picture
of summer yellow squash
hanging on the wall
I saw it in the morning
I saw it in the afternoon
I saw it at night
it was there
every day, every year... always
and everyday at a certain time
the sun hit it just right
the sweet rays made it sparkle
the summer yellow squash
they shined like the sun
it was amazing
so full of warmth
full of magic
full of love
mom...

Happening
Dear, why are you so gloom these days?
Have you not treated yourself kindly in this terrible phase?
Well, on the outside I feel fine
But lying comes easy.
A swansong of pretty words always made me feel like it's a teasing,
How can someone say goodbye with such a long life on the line?
Dear, destiny will my words inspire the fire needed for someone else to feel alive?
Will they influence the damage ones and help pick up the pieces, glue them back and create a modern masterpiece?
Please
I want to incite hate for adequate

Sleeping.
Sleeping in.
Curtains tight.
Drifting dreams.
Oceanic scenes.
Dessert island.
Paradise found.
Glorious blue
Alluring hue.
Dazzling sand.
Exotic land.
Honey sun.
Warming bones.
Safe adventure.
Soaring skies.
As the body lies.
Hazy....
Lounging lazily.
Carelessly.
Depress free.
Sleeping in.
Freedom dreams.
Everything right.
Curtains tight.
Curtains tight.
Drifting dreams.
Oceanic scenes.
Dessert island.
Paradise found.
Glorious blue
Alluring hue.
Dazzling sand.
Exotic land.
Honey sun.
Warming bones.
Safe adventure.
Soaring skies.
As the body lies.
Hazy....
Lounging lazily.
Carelessly.
Depress free.
Sleeping in.
Freedom dreams.
Everything right.
Curtains tight.

Dear Moon
As I gaze up at you,
I wonder what all you see?
Do you look down at us with love,
Or do you only pity?
Sometimes I dream,
The world is quiet
And it’s just you & me,
No congestion, no evil,
No destruction caused by human beings,
Dear Moon,
Please don’t pity me...
Because with three eyes I see,
With absolute clarity,
As long as your light shines through the darkness
Washing over us all with Divine Feminity,
Mother Moon, I can see...
There’s always hope for me.
I wonder what all you see?
Do you look down at us with love,

The world is quiet
And it’s just you & me,
No congestion, no evil,

Dear Moon,
Please don’t pity me...
Because with three eyes I see,
With absolute clarity,
As long as your light shines through the darkness
Washing over us all with Divine Feminity,
Mother Moon, I can see...
There’s always hope for me.

Viceroy butterfly (daVid)
For my pretence the grandiose
my wings to spread
in hues to match the undergrowth
in autumn shades
For the less well informed
mistaken for an admiral
a lepidoptera shrunk or just deformed
summers short days do fly
When in the earth as chrysalis curled
just like a teenager, lied in bed
escape the cold and winters snows
awaiting spring, transformed in that advent
The junk food of a cow pat
my elegance survived intact
a willow leaf where raindrops sat
my perch; your glance not pass me by
...

The Mantra
The mantra
When you feel that wobble, you feel the on set of your self doubt, go to your nearest mirror, stare at it and shout
Take a deep breath and say "BE STRONG, BE BEAUTIFUL AND BE YOU" believe it with a passion, believe these words are true
Believe in your self worth, see the beautiful person deep inside, let your Sun shine brightly, there is no need to hide
Yes there are others who will hurt and pull you down, push through all their bullshit, put on your Princess Crown
The reason why haters hate, is because the're just not...

Music Class
Deep in the cloisters of terracotta
belles effloresce with beaus
among rows of wooden desks
where coeds have sat for a century
while breathing sighs of summer love.
Their poetry is the blue sky
under which gardens blossom
in sonnets of sunshine
heaped in bales of gold.
The young ladies chatter like Chickadees
with gentlemen in a college-lyceum
where Bach can’t compete
with green grass and blue skies.
So we follow the sun
onto the campus green
where lasses are peonies ...

me myself and i
in truth
all my worship
is in service of
self improvement
self worth
self awareness
self respect
self control
and if that self same
is found in the gods
in the sky
land
or sea
if it is found at 3am
heartbroken
heart racing
in the lyrics
of an algorithmic auto play
or the other side of the day
in the yellow sun
on fire
or in sleep
where i skinwalk
in sex
where i
love

FALLING AUTUMN LEAVES
Autumn is here, with its reddish tint,
Falling leaves and blowing wind,
It came abruptly, overnight,
Revealed itself in all its might.
And now, the rain is pouring on the ground
With a rather dark and melancholic sound.
Thus, I decided to take a walk in the park,
For the florid glory of its autumn mark,
As I walked along, I saw a cloverleaf,
Which is famous for the old belief
That it brings a stoke of luck to whom
Picks it up and hides it in their room.
Why would I find it? Was it for an insight?
It really set up a sense of...

Not such a misdemeanor
You are the beat
in so many
of our chests
I cannot fathom
the emptiness
your loss
would leave
in so many
of our chests
I cannot fathom
the emptiness
your loss
would leave
