High up ‘O sole mio

Magically appeared as if summoned by the forces
Tragically disappeared into crucifixion darkness
Now I obsess about the recovery of our losses
And confess without you I’m hopeless

Passion’s Ode to Lyric

Blank pages

Empty stares

Quiet rages

Individual pair

 

Body engages

Animal affair

Sharp edges

Broken air

 

On hate, love gauges

An equal share

A word sage

Dump with fear

Fingerprints of the Fallen

Sketches of contours mark
Days, months and years
Like patterns on a trunk.
The smiles, the tears…
A tale of a broken hearts
On the trail of hopes and fears.

Jade & Ruby

Green and red –

The colour of stones;

Inscribed with word

And contents of song.

Rainbows galore –

The synesthetic glow

Of a familiar sense of being

And a similar sort of dream.
