From where her hips flowed

Her hips flowed into her legs like a river to a sea, into which they joined her soft feet fitted sublimely into Italian-made shoes that could only be described as delicately designed, desirable and deliciously delectable soles planted onto a heavenly earth that awaited her every step with bated breath. Oh what an indelible impression the ground would savour as she walked her seductive journey!

Nature’s way

If nature were a song, you would be her voice
If life had but one gift, you would be its choice
If the road had one path, you would lead the way
And as I sleep tonight, I know you will make my day

They say…

They say nothing shines brighter than the sun
Though I believe I know someone who does

It is also said that nothing glows more radiant than a moon-lit sky
No doubt they have yet to see you smile

They say there is nothing more precious than the air we breathe
A shame they have not made the effort to make your acquaintance

They also say, amazingly, that angels only dwell in heaven
Well I guess they did not count on you

The hand that touches the heart

Sacred your spirit to me
Forever your soul will touch mine
Eternally our hearts shall beat
As sure as the passing of time

Everything

The sun may not shine
The birds may not sing
But with you by my side
I have everything

Hiding from you

To hide what I feel is like asking…

A dolphin not to swim
A lion not to roar
A horse not to run
An eagle not to soar

To deny what I know is like telling…

The sun not to shine
The moon not to glow
The seas not to move
The rivers not to flow…

Maze of Life

This maze I see before me a labyrinth of gold
Beautiful and holy but so lonely and cold
Each corner a new world so full of surprise
Another face, another idea, another disguise

For where hidden is this soul of mine
Creeping amidst another darkened vine
The shadows forlorn in a mist of haze
Never afar from its fixed and hardened gaze

Gliding and slithering like a lost snake
I will endure if only for heaven’s sake
Bellowing clouds sooth my constant unease
These hollow emotions distort me as they please

Yet a light I see not afar in the illuminating distance
All the while I feel this penetrating resistance
Calling, calling me to resurrect my waning humanity
Crying to preserve my slowly eroding sanctity

But alas the waves of despair begin to dissipate
I am closer to love and hence accepting my fate
For who am I to judge to where this journey will end
Thus I live this life for this life was my God send

God’s tear

God shed a tear when you were born
The saddest soul ceased to mourn
The rain chose to fall another day
The angels danced their angelic way

The rivers flowed once again
The darkest stranger made a friend
The moon turned to kiss the sun
Your presence embraced by everyone

The drums began to hum a beat
The crippled man rose to his feet
The desperate chose to live again
The saddest tale came to an end

Your essence a song sung so sweet
A soul refined, and divinely replete
Life as we know it has weathered the storm
No wonder God shed a tear when you were born

The first echo

The echo of the soul
The beat of the heart
A sweet story told
Never shall we part
