INEFFABILITY

Her eyes quizzed me ,
Through the creases on her face,
That boasted of wisdom,
That came with age.
Telling me to let love evolve 
To grow beyond my years,
That sought you

I  felt a gust of compassion,
For the one who never beheld,
Love in all its splendor,
The sort that I now wade in.

Love was never a child that grew,
It does not need evolution,
Its in itself complete
The peaks of which favor few.

The ones who speak knoweth not,
The heights and depths few have seen.
The ones who know can but feel,
And are at loss to say in words.

DESPAIR'S HOPE

Whats life if hope doesn't hold his hands?.....

There was never a sun,
That did not await the rain.
And darkness died a willful death,
That the light could live.

Whenever the sky did weep
The earth sprouted to comfort.
The darker his clouds were,
She made her blossoms brighter.

 The roots of love are deeper now,
Though the shoots don't show.
Do not doubt the doting buds,
That do not flower in spring.

PERPETUAL WISH

Once upon a time we thought immortality was within reach...

                      If eternity  is not a dream ,
                      And forever is a reality , 
                      Will you not allow me
                     To spend both with you? 
      

THE SENTINEL OF MORPHEUS SERIES VERSE 2

Some nights are beautiful  and sleeplessness can be enjoyed when thoughts relax us more than the torpor...

If you could drop one of your dreams,
On the path where you stroll,
And  I could then pick it up,
To enter the room you conceived 
Where through the curtained window,
A desperate moon might sneak in,
Onto the bed where you sleep,
And the moonlight like my fingers,
Will trace the contours of your face.

Perhaps I could lie  on your brow,
And watch your eyes slowly open,
When you wake  from your sleep.
Or may be I will  rest on your lips
And let your breath play with my hair.
Or should I lay further down
And sleep to the rhythm of  your heart.

THE SORROW OF THE SHORES

The rumble of the waves at dusk often brings with it a melancholy stillness in the heart. If you have ears for the silence of the welkin it will tell you tales..... 

The sea,the waves and the wind that blows,
Bring with it memories that were .
When your feet trod the sands,
And the waves that kissed your toes.
I found the winds searching,
To ruffle your hair again.
 And a grief stricken sun
Who bled the horizon crimson... 

THE SENTINEL OF MORPHEUS SERIES ...VERSE 1

The earth was perhaps round so that when half the world slept the rest was destined to stay awake and wait for the other half to wake up.A single sun continued to wake both...

As you journey through your
blissful slumber
My wakeful thoughts will 
stand you guard .
For worries should not break
Your dreams,
For it is there I  happily dwell.

WHY DO THE WATERS SPARKLE????

Some mornings  I do sit by the brook and watch the sun play with the waters that are tickled by the fish beneath.......and wakes up the buds on the banks.The waters sparkle as if in love with the morning sun and remind me of eyes that held my stare.....

I want my words to adorn you,

And they then glitter in your gaze,

The way the waters glittered in the sunlight.

I want my words to touch you,

The way the morning breeze whispers

to the blooming buds.

I want my words to caress you,
The way the dew  rolls on grass blades at dawn

TALE OF A RAINBOW

And so did the sun love.......

So I was told that the sun had once danced and the rainbows did sing....so walk with me a while and let  me tell you how rainbows were formed ......

When the sky stops weeping,

And the sun's rays lighten up her face

Their love then shines through,

And that's how rainbows are born. 

RESURRECTION OF THE VERSE

A day of your sun

OLD HABITS DIE HARD....WHAT I THOUGHT WAS DEAD DID RISE AGAIN....

The trees stretched their necks to kiss,
The sun that rose for you in the mornings,
Who blazed in noon pining for you,
And at dusk tired of waiting, 
He drowned in the sea of his tears.
