Angler's Wrath
Like a fish on the angler's hook
Wriggling to escape
The angler's wrath
The gentleman she once knew
In true form was a real swine
Undressing her with his eyes
Tears threatening
As she tries to unclasp his hand
From her wrist
Sensing his enjoyment of her discomfort
He tighten his grip
Much against her will
Her heart pounding with excitement
Damn his dark eyes reeling her in
Was the last she remember
As his lips gently finds hers

Kissing Swirl's of life
Like opening the doors of wisdom and light
The taste of love's lips
Like honey dripping turning
Lips parting
And swirling inside
Mixing of love's tastes
Twisting roots like veins entwined
Woven in every aspect of life
So are memories past
Broken dreams of a path you chose
To take a detour
The tastes, shapes and size of the swirls may change
You with candy flavoured paintbrush
Only you can make the change

Lost
Searching in the crowd
For a resemblance
To no avail
No familiar faces
I once loved
A forbidden love
Oceans separated you from me
Virtually all familiar faces gone
I roam the dessert of life
Feeling all alone
Like a blind man searching
For a familiar face
The sound of your voice
The ringing of laughter shared
Of familiar faces
Barren, empty bossom
Swallowed by the dessert of life
All familiar faces

Maimed
Scarred for life
Screams unheard
Abused and broken
A little body convulsing with pain
Society to blame
Turning a blind eye
Too young to understand
Born on the wrong side of town
A future bleak
Youth incomplete
Tortured souls
Seeking comforts
With the wrong crowds
Heroes of tomorrow
High on substance abuse
Poverty stricken
Unlettered
Confused and misunderstood
A country, fast coming to her knees
Crime and corruption the order of the day

Transparent Heart
Heart a perfect transparent globe
Darts of sunlight streaming through
The tree tops onto the forest brush
Embraced in loves glow
Warm contentment
Where the night spent
Under the glittering stars
Their bodies in perfect rhythmic unison
They have come far
Together many obstacles conquered
To finally be together
Away from all the lies and deceit
Together they left one room
And entered another
Hand in hand
They will walk the road ahead...

Palace In The Sky
High above the clouds
On majestically floating realms
Our palace in the sky
Where only angels dwell in praise
Come unfurl your wings
Reach the highest heaven's gates
Awaiting to open to your worthy soul
Let us glide on the winds of change
Close your eyes, allow yourself this journey
Reach within yourself for a place of purity and bliss
Remove those earth bound chains and mortal love
Unfurl your thoughts and fall to your knees
Set yourself free

Psychology
How does it work?
When you're friendly and smile
He thinks you're the one
Psychology!
How does it work?
You say no
He thinks you mean yes
You say friends only
He wants your heart
You say friends forever
He wants a lifetime together
Think about it!
why can't he comprehend?
Humble, hard working
You're leading a simple life
Simplicity pinch his nerves
He has fallen in love
With the idea
Of you in his life

The Value of You
Never did I realize my need
To have you around
Never did I show appreciation of you
Never did I realize the value
Of your in-put
As spiritual guide or other
Never did I see your worth
Words were not enough
I knew you were hurting
I felt your pain
Never could I express myself
With all the negativity around
All issues were placed in boxes
And so were you
Never did I know where to place you
Now with all the other boxes gone
I know where you belong

Love's Delight
Singing to my heart's delight
For I have no words to write
At the top of my voice
For all to hear
This is I, I am not shy
At least this is what they may think
I don't really care!
For my soul's delight
I sing of love and joy
Millions of miles across the sea
You lie in bed fast asleep
My song reaching you, a lullaby
Waking you gently with the same smile
Playing around my lips
Surrounding you with my love
Your heart beating fast for sensing me near

I Chant Your Name Oh Beloved
Chant Your Name
I chant Your name O Beloved
Like the raindrops on a roof
I chant Your name O Beloved
Like the breeze in the leaves
I chant Your name o beloved
Like the snowflakes on mountain peaks
I chant Your name O Beloved
Like the dew drops in the field
I chant your name O beloved
As Your blood pulsate in my veins
I chant Your name O beloved
As the bees buzz around my head
In silence I chant Your name O Beloved
As they carry my whispered prayers
