My Son (Kimo Poem)

When days have a down pour of Anxiety
Worries unceasing as rain
My son holds my hand... Hope.

Diminishing Whites

Perched majestically
On mountaintops slowly melt...
Diluted color falling
Diminishing whites.

First Christmas (Cinquain)

Reason
For the season
First Christmas morn unfolds
His Love made flesh to save mankind
Jesus.

The Way It Is (Aphorism)

Freedom can be mocked
And Memories, forgotten
Love can be unlocked
But Death takes all of men.

The Hyacinth

Efflorescence,
Denied the endowment of soil
Yet magnificent in splendor -
The water hyacinth.

Word Choice

The hardest word to say is 'goodbye'
The best escape is - 'maybe'
But 'cannot' is
For futility.

Candles (Cinquain)

Candles
Of destined time
May light awhile and be
But like all life, they get snuffed out
To die.

Deceit (Cinquain)

A trap
Like net spread out
Lies hidden laced in words
Unmasked by truth in time laid out
Deceit.

Friendless (Naani poetry form)

One who looks for a friend
Without an imperfection
Remains alone in the end,
With no companion.

Leverage, (Septolet)

Life's leverage,
Hope unlocks
even
rusty doors...

On Darkness' page
Hope births
prismatic colors.
