Plenty on Earth Denied.
This soil, waters and
Endless horizon
Vast, enormous creation
Underground, underwater
On land, on air creatures’
Providence chain, completed
Ours, selfishness
In God’s abundance
And plenty, deny survival of one.

Clouds Shall Pass
I see clouds
Whitish and feathery
Cotton white and feathery
Dark clouds, winds gather,
Winds howl, winds sweep the sky
Sun shines, coloured rainbow bows
little rain spatters, clouds,
Clouds shall clear, the sun winks.

We Bless The Moon
With Maria and Son in
The crescent so clear up the sky
The patterned star disciples twinkle
Glee marks all over, my love's face
She pulls, sits besides me and points up the sky
I know, I feel, I smile, with content she is.

Music my Soul
Sounds of freedom,
Quench my longing soul
I'm at peace with myself
Music cools my nerves
My whole it renews
Tom tom drums
Keyboards, flutes, the rich voices
Bring them all, I need my soul,
I'll fly with my music to universe.

Dove and Olive branch
Here I kneel
My soul lifts up
My father, the almighty
Snap
Shot
Images
Of your beloved son, conjure
The cup and last supper
The thorny crown
Crucification
My heart beats, my deeds lie bare
A dove and branch of olive
Renews me whole.

Me and God
Eternity is the Universe,
Swaying are the leaves
Rain splatters
Around I see lives
Wind, earth and heaven it kisses
Lightening roars and strikes
God, harmony, is yours
God, fountain of life, is yours
God, a humble soul, I'm yours.

Nyanam
Nyanam, daughter of the lake
as she speaks,
its hundhwe the song bird
your songs I desire
Nyanam, your eyes,
A golden pearl they are
Your legs, the rhythm
Harpist’s song memories, conjure
Living and loving,
You’re my rosy petal.

Holding On Climbing Up
This mountain
So steep, so high
My nerves are aching
On I move with resolve.
My soul urges
Up the mountain sits
My holy castle, Highness
That waits.
I see the castle
A majesty that waits
Holding on, climbing up
Down, spreads, beautifully!

You fly me away
My eyes had seen, with mirth
Neat corn like rows,
Resembling, are your teeth
Dark hair, flowing over shoulders
So soft, snatches my breath
Your cooing, honeyed and husky
Your steps, delicately touch the earth,
Your arms, hold, and fly me away!

Morning Petals
Greenish and pinky
Reddish and yellow flowers
In this season blossom,
From the East, the sun strikes
how fine is my darling's face
Angel face on screen, written
The cupid re-strikes my heart,
I'm won, here are petals,
The morning flower petals!
