Down the rabbit hole I fell

Down the rabbit hole I fell

 Daylight shone on all

As clocks of time unwound nights

Game of cards fell foul

Truth’s certainty was at play

Faith lives not within hearsay

 

The rooster crowed on

Oblivious to changing times

Its feathers ran thin

Old values all will forsake

For peacocks now call daybreak

 

Evening sun set calm

Upon all living creatures

Ensnared into dark

Soul’s footsteps may oft falter

As gold lays on the altar

 

The winding staircase

Led to dark bottomless pits

Where secrets lay bare

Down the rabbit hole I fell

Raking thoughts for show and tell

Change within the knots

Carved in fragments of knit soul

That finds the loose ends

All the promises

All the promises

1 – 10 July 2015

burning 8

The hours still stand by

As space expands in morrow

Slate of time dilates

.

Crops burnt in corners

Lie idle remnants of past

When food was mundane

.

Eyes wide with glory

Mind quenched with victory’s thrill

You rule, King of dark

.

Corpses pile aflame

Memories of hearts that loved

In vanity died

.

Thrill of chase vanquished

Idle thoughts of loyalty

String of hearts like pearls

.

I believed a lie

Intoxicating promise

Of a brave New World

Forse

both together2

Ti guardo timorosa ma sperando
Che i tuoi ricordi mancano all’appello
Che il tuo cuore ascolta più della mente
Che solo dei momenti velluti giri ritornello
Ed inebetita rintraccio le strade passate

Forse avrei trovato il senso della vita
Dentro le lacrime che cascano sul tuo volto
Dai tuoi belli e scuri occhi infossati
Accesi come due braci fiammeggianti
Diamanti incisi nella tua faccia scura

Forse avrei trovato uno squarcio di cielo
Soffiando parole dimenticate nelle tue orecchie
Le mie labbra vicino ai tuoi templi brizzolati
Dove il battito cardiaco si illumina svogliato
Dove la mascella dimentica di stringere

Forse avrei trovato il motivo per sorridere
Nel delicato chiarore del tuo naso storto
Appena sopra il piano di curve
Che porta all’angolo dove la tua labbra piena
Trova finalmente nuova gioia nel nostro abbraccio

jawline kiss 8 (2)

I look upon you fearful though hopeful

That your memories have missed a call

That your heart listens more than mind

For only our velvet moments to recall

And dazed, retrace features of the past

.

Perhaps I would find the meaning of life

Within the tears that roll down your face

From your beautiful dark sunken eyes

Blazing like two flaming pieces of coal

Etched diamonds in your rugged dark face

.

Perhaps I would have a glimpse of heaven

Whispering forgotten words in your ears

Lips close to your greying temples

Where your heartbeat glows listless

Where your jaw forgets to clench

.

Perhaps I would find the reason to smile

In the delicate flare of your crooked nose

Just above the curvaceous plane

Leading to the corner where your full lip

Finally finds new joy in our embrace

Heart’s rotating light

Heart’s rotating light

29 June 2015

Heart9

First light opened skies

Night’s sky lent itself to blue

As the sun renewed

Awakening spleen moved hue

Ice clad dark loosened its grip

.

Birds shook themselves free

Of night long of frozen sleep

As warmth flooded Earth

In mind vibration of hope shone

Illuminating corners

.

Velveteen dawn spoke

Its voice the echo of breeze

Air trapped in time breathed

Mind let loose spun miracles

Weaving a shimmering trail

.

Prism of colours shone

Myriads of tones highlighted

Heart’s rotating light

The core spun around itself

A new age of heavens’ might

Rise from the dead realm

Rise from the dead realm

27 June 2015

 Rise dead5

Wild jasmine renewed

Into summer’s heat it shone

New buds blossomed white

In mind’s renewal lies light

Shining through waves’ distortion

 

Untouched they flourished

Blooming through the heat and dust

A bright wall of scent

Flooded senses built high hopes

Miracles outlive blemish

 

Roots withered bore new

Green grew where brown spelt dark void

Life’s cycle whirled on

Memories whirred on in mind

The old hastened to renew

 

Shadows played in sight

Dances of unicorns past

Rise from the dead realm

Behold the soul rekindled

From ashes of waves that flew

Rise dead3

I walked down to the river

I walked down to the river

26 June 2015

river walk 5 

Trickle of water

Ran upwards from spirit’s palm

Defying physics

Challenge to set intentions

Opened reservoirs of grace

 

Spring fresh gushed onwards

Streams forming in its light trail

Moving upward drive

Elevated concepts rose

Scaling mere fragments of thought

 

Land formations thinned

Water seeped in through all cracks

Deltas met their end

I walked down to the river

While it flowed down to the sea

 

Seagulls mewed faintly

Their sullen voices beckoned

Ocean’s thunderous cry

Flooded in white light that roared

Source stood in wake of my call

First light that filled skies

First light that filled skies

first light 16

Birds flew across skies

Shapes of victory raised high

Black on orange glow

Partial memories in light

Awakened to new morrows

.

Their braids soft as silk

Murmuring in moving winds

Reeds bowed to the sun

Pliable thoughts reinvent

In link with higher forces

.

The lands basked in light

Rocks and moss gathering sun

A gift from above

Wondrous thoughts from higher realms

Bathed all souls as they stretched out

.

First light that filled skies

Shone on Earth in subtle hues

The seas lit their blues

Ignite o soul in true shades

As colour of heart renews

 shine4

 

Sun regained power

Its rays a show of control

Scorching dried subjects

Mind devoid of healing cool

Laps thoughts of sole atonement

 

Heat waves palpable

Raw pulse of energy shot

Life withered in vein

Struggling mind met not a thought

Scarcity overcame soul

 

The Earth heaved and sighed

Split into two like parched bread

Its insides spread out

All that is within will flow

From rivers of faith we knew

 

Like green miracle

Between the cracks grows a seed

Earth’s core sparks new life

Burgeoning wonders in chest

Rise and shine O hearts that love
