The eternal fountain comes from the source divine  The nectar of the Gods is sweeter than wine  The Garden of Eden is surrounded by the wall  Within it, its robust inmates walk ever so tall  The stepped ziggurats glow with a light so old  Their pinnacles surround the Tree of Life so bold  And theContinue reading “Paradise: A poem “

Pick at the straw  Let the hunger thaw  Shut the door  Hear the insides roar  What ails the messiah  Is his own defiance  The question is in the doubt  Not in predicaments without  Has he his fledglings fed?  When his head is all too red  For when he is sore and forlorn  his heart is renderedContinue reading “The bird’s nest: A poem “

Hope is that mirage that keeps us all alive  The thanksgiving turkey sliced with a knife  To the chef, the first splash of cooking oil  A dream of harvests after the relentless toil  Hope is that lamp that leads us in the dark  For prehistoric man, what ignited the fire was the spark  For theContinue reading “Hope: A poem “

To us all, the past seems irretrievably lost. Even memories begin to fade. But time is cyclical…as can be witnessed in the cyclical precession of the sun. The sun takes 25,920 years in its circular precession, to get back to the point where it started.   All motion is circular, and so is time’s motion.Continue reading “Past, present and future “

Spring’s naked birth is an infant’s dawn  The cherub of promise as new life spawns  The sunshine of tomorrow, the harvests of corn  Expectations and dreams of innocents drawn  Summer is the courage, that youth is armed with  The heat of passions with which the heart is lit  Strong as steel, malleable as silver  ToContinue reading “The four seasons of life: A poem “

Touching the sands, they fall and rise  Reminiscent of how life grows and dies  Sparkling in the sun; but does one see  how they bring in the wealth of the sea?  The cornucopia of riches is in the giving  Their blues and greens, hues of dying and living  In the eddies of tempests, they groanContinue reading “Waves: A poem “

Sacrifice is a vital food for the soul  Just like starving a little keeps the body whole  Suffering in need, indeed, is no masochism  A mother’s sacrifice comes from infinite wisdom  Those that pursue aggrandisement wear shoes with no shine   Looking for false glory is living with no spine  Appearances and lifestyle are but emptyContinue reading “Foundations are built on sacrifice: A poem “

Cloaked are our eyes, but our minds are bare  Riches are our goals, but our souls are threadbare  The symphony of the conscience goes silent within ourselves  As we starve the inner lambs and feed outer wolves  Integrity is not weak-kneed, it is the steel of the bold  Goodness is a priceless treasure never toContinue reading “Bravery: A poem “

In wisdom, choices of free will  are a path to resist evil  For in living the lie  does conscience hopelessly die  Minds that do not deign  cannot avoid material pain  But lies the true success  in ignoring establishment’s duress   Virtue is indifference to advocacy’s haunts  And the simile of icons  For their glory is brittleContinue reading “Unsung and unwept is the true hero: A poem “

Many intricate gifts we do bear  in talents that we deem to share  Great lives are conjured up as if by magic  But if they are selfish, they become tragic  Genius is a score whose music is fortune  But only lyrics of humility embellish the tune  Gems sparkle brighter with education and opportunity  But withContinue reading “Inspiration: A poem “
