Life,
a rainbow in the sky,
life,
a kaleidoscope of colours;
today, the sunny-side
of laughter smiles
at us with bald-pate.
The morning of life
hangs on carapace
of a big masqurade
laced with hair-raising
lull-a-dirge.
The severed silver-cord
left on lapel of
time eclipsed laughter
from masked faces...
Lost in throes of false maturity,
life is like conditional
footing of bills consumed
in silence.
A further collection of poems, many from years in the Middle East, but also the California San Francisco and Central Coast areas (Santa Cruz, Carmel, Big Sur, Berkeley, etc.).
If you tend to believe romantic, passionate, masculine poetry is a thing of past eras, read "She Intrigues Me," and be swept away in the beautiful craft of a contemporary poet of love.
Love,
