A RHYTHMIC DANCE

(A Terzanelle)

If there’s a deep depression at the Bay    

 The bone dry arid land hopes against hope

 A storm’s to brew to reach the sky they say

 It’s better to rise than sit, brood and mope

 What do these dark flying clouds indicate?

The bone dry arid land hopes against hope

Deflated brain waits to be in full spate

 The blistering heat’s fighting tooth and nail

The bone dry arid land hopes against hope

 The sea’s roaring, the stormy clouds do flail

Droplets poised and the lull’s almost broken

The blistering heat’s fighting tooth and nail

 Euterpe’s flute untie the notes to rain

Parched heart’s quick to drench in words to quench thirst

Droplets poised and the lull’s almost broken

 A rhythmic dance is to be seen at first

If there’s a deep depression at the bay

 Parched heart’s quick to soak in words to quench thirst

 A storm’s to brew to reach the sky they say

RHYTHM

Rivulets stream from pores

Raging sun

Bursts

2

Leaves burst hues to show off

Pride before

Fall

3

Snowfall will invoke Sleep

Migration

Starts

4

The Earth starts and wakes up

Butterflies

Stream

BICYCLE-THIEVES

Two wheels became

Light, camera and sound

Poverty of post-war Italy

Hit the screen

 Untrained non-actors

Wheeled this De Sica Classic

Safely beyond boundary of time

FRIENDS

I have a friend

Dwelling inside me

She is sweet

Yet knows

When to be harsh

And hard

I don’t listen to her at all

When she is like that

I almost hate her then

I hear her chuckle

When salt clogs my throat

She is so unkind

Though in the stretched summer days

Or long dark winter nights

She speaks in fragrance

She is a friend in need

I am a shadow of her

I AM

courtesy : d'verse

I am existence

I am in relationship

With the universe

Dusts and the stars

Stare at me

We do feel related

The universe will be non-existent

When I shall cease to be

What lingers

When all is said and done?

Posted for d’Verse where I answered the first question (who are you and whom do you love?) asked by MarinaSofia and included the last question as a part of my poem

A SKY

image by Martin Stranka

I am your dream sky

Embracing your

Passions that burn

And dispel darkness

I am with you forever

Settle slowly

Glass may be shattered

Names may be rubbed out

All that is false and clumsy

May always meet with an axe

To be weeded out

Listen to my promise to you

When there is a fall

The hard land will vanish

Only to become petals

To have you ensconced

With soft fragrance

          REVENGE OF GAIA

Revenge of Gaia :  Artist Susie McMahon

 

Your torso writhes, warps

Blood oozes out from deep wounds

I can’t stare at you

Your abyss-eyes haunt

Drag, pull me into blackness

My eternal damnation

Your heart’s a desert

Yet no oasis I long for

Ah your wrath scorches

Had I ever sung

The notes you crooned while cradling

Your soul wouldn’t be crushed
