Canada
I remember us in the tall
of balconied condominiums over there.
I remember the seemingly rainbowy effect
drawing us towards new clothes & music for sale
in exquisite gigantesque shopping malls, the
trust we will be hearing a hello, and have a nice
day tune from shop assistants at every shop door,
where billboards above advertised albums by Beyonce,
fragrances, and films, us becoming f...

Star seeds ‘n’ the Cosmic egg - of life
Dewy lotuses,
grow in the dark -
creating an entangling —
Flower of Life …
nature and everything — we know — has its roots
on the grounds of truth
indeed…
every family tree,
needs...
a tree house.
Habitats for Humanity
There is a lone wolf
which is black,
and blue,
in the eyes :
whom sees the world differently
depending on —
whether or not you’re
— on his or her good or...

Aethereal protégée
Universal consciousness is omnipresent
— living vicariously, we too are one - and the same,
Having the time of our lives
all knowing— enlightened divine sparks
going —Godspeed.
This is a way of life:
Anatomic amino acid building blocks chain letters,
into the complex double helix;
in our initials is a chemical signature—me and my significant other have between us—
this bond, that

A Daughter's 18th Birthday Poem
Seasons come and seasons go
Through autumn’s leaves and winter’s snow
Sweet as summer berries you
A fresh spring breeze you carry through.
Though time flies fast, the passing years
Have bought us laughter, joy and tears
And now at last our daughter dear
Has reached her special 18th year.
So with all the love we feel inside
And all a mother and father’s pride

Here is to another year of life,
Should I be buoyant and forget these years of strife?
See my demons are growing more mature,
As I silently suffer no closer to a cure.
24 years of carrying this unbearable pain inside,
Yet today I'll show the world I'm happy and hide these tears I’ve cried.
En fin, feliz cumpleaños para mí
I hope these messages from back home b...

Journey
Entering into today’s day and age, we take turns turning the page.
Let us begin,
as were taken back to a time— lined with the new heights of always measuring up to ones expectations.
Ascendant signs are all "GO".
birthmarks placed on the face of the earth; add attachment to the earthly plane, and embody rebirth.
the fabric of the universe tucks us away—as our materialization is made—from a ...

Lockdown Birthday
Lockdown Birthday
We walked up from the river
Beneath a canopy of trees
The air was filled with birdsong
On a warm and gentle breeze
The sun was high in the June sky
The road stretched out ahead
We drank some wine together
shared cheese and new baked bread
After lunch we wandered home
The air was hot and hazy
Then we sat around and drunk beer
Refused t...

Solar return
instances of mesmerizing glimpses vivify and lend clarity into an understanding of soul.
evocation leaves an everlasting mark as two twin flames embark from a space of divine love to create fate
meticulous minds pick a place and time, upon your arrival show a sign that's vital, gravity pulls us in for a kiss as our hearts meet.
my greatest wishes grant admission, a star is born and with t...

Florida Birthday Girl
You wake me early, with a kiss-scapade and your eyes bright like the morning light that snuck through onto my pillowcase.
You open my car door with a knowing grin, and I make ridiculous guesses, but you refuse to reveal your plans.
First, across the bridges of Jacksonville, to historic Avondale, where old-Florida gardens and old-money mansions show us their frills.
My first time at the Fo...

Salutations for Sally
I wrote this poem for my wife's birthday.
Salutations for Sally
The years don’t pass slowly anymore,
But there’s still time for an eternity
In your eyes, in your arms, your love.
Each moment a step to infinity,
But time doesn’t march, it ascends,
And we rise on the years,
Sadder, yes, but wiser and
More loving, more understanding.
And you lift everything around you

HAPPY BIRTHDAY
Today is my birthday
not sure if I'm happy or sad
I'd be glad
if at 30
we started to count backwards
So many candles on my cake!!
I need a FIRE extinguisher...

A Life's Wish
May you wake today
To see light of day
To hear nightingale
When you're feeling stale
May you rise
With sunrise
And seize the day
Without dismay
May you awaken
Feeling unshaken
And start a smile
For a long while
May you forever love
And feel being loved
May you follow your inner wisdom
And be guided to only success

Red Letter Day
Ticks
and the liquid
Chime
and gentle oak
Blend
The lips poised
The tongue
Ready
mind and soul are
Satisfied
shared, valued
Enjoyed
Celebrated

Young and wrinkly
Young and wrinkly
You are not getting old
But numerically you've advanced
No, you're not getting old
You're just chronologically enhanced.
You are not growing up
But of this much I am sure
To avoid growing up
We must become more immature.
We must dance until our joints creak
And sing until we can't speak,
Laugh until our lungs ache
And love until ...

Staggering home alone, intoxicated
From another birthday now belated
Booze translates to insomnia medicated
I used to be an animal but am again domesticated

We Too Hold Truth
A dancer I know made a flag
For me
It contains my favorite colors and
Holds the spirit of a sloth
Deliberate and lazy
Slow but sure
Hanging upside down
And clear about the difference between
Sky and ground
My flag for my revolution
No nationalistic colors with stripes
Bars animals symbols or heroic images
Represents me - never has
I ...

Today Is My Birthday
Today, the 27th of May, Friday,
I celebrate another birthday.
I again thank God for prolonging my life,
For giving me the strength for the right strife,
For saving me from a danger,
For giving me a chance to understand a stranger.
For forgiving all my sins,
For congratulating with my wins.
Another year of my life has passed.
I hope it is not the last.
