As the sun
fades beyond the horizon
A mist
delicately veils the lilies' bells
A gentle frost
blankets my chilled mat
Glistening
like countless mirrors
In the soft glow of lamplight
I
#probe
the shadows of night
Endlessly seeking
you
And longing grips my heart
#vss365
Lilac and
#butterscotch
the ocean lies
shimmering in the sunset's hue
Even the waves are entranced under its spell,
lapping the shore
with a soothing rise and fall
In this moment
my grief seems to melt away
leaving only me
in this peaceful bay
#vss365
#poetsoftwitter
A fleeting moment
is the
#present
Like sand
it slips through my fingers
Some glitters in my hand
As a soft silk breeze
it forms dunes
with my life's memories
sweet and sour
Forever I shall hold
the present in the sand
in glitter on my hand
#vss365
#poetsoftwitter
Blind from birth
in her world sight is a mystery
yet vibrant it feels
Dance her fingers to touch
#creating
colors in tints
we'd miss
From the rough bark of trees
to softness of flowers
the gentle touch of a breeze
the murmurs of streams
Do we need sight for bliss
#vss365
My mama's heart
a
#nest
of love
cup-like
downy feathers
inside
In there I cling
in the soft foldings
when life is night
fierce and dark
ferocious and wild
Within this enchanted isle
my shadows flee
my troubles smile
In my mama's heart
heaven's light shine bright
#vss365
To
#communicate
the little girl, deaf,
with her swaying hands
happily unravels
tangled meshes
of the net of silence
where words and music
are buried in deep seas
#vss365
#poetsoftwitter
In liberty's light poppies bloom
But in bigotry's air
they meet their doom
To revive our sinking world
we need to be of
#quality
of worth, indeed
Reject the hate that spoils the earth
Embrace acceptance
love, and mirth
Tolerance unfurled
for a better world
#vss365
In the depths of night
where shadows grow
I feel the moon's elusive glow enshrouded in a
#sumptuous
veil
she taunts and mirrors
my forlorn state
no nocturne's melody does she bring
nor barcarole to make my heart sing
she just wouldn't
from melancholy set me free
#vss365
#Lust
like autumn leaves,
flames with desire
Tossed by biting winds
that stoke its fire
Its sad adieu
never arrives in glory
as lust withers and dies
in its own story
Shrouded with snow
of remorseful regret
its fiery passion now
a cold silhouette
#vss365
#poetry
My mind's
#traffic
lights
flash a red warning
But in my thoughts
my heart wanders ahead
My arms reach out for you
my wanting adorning
your caresses as feathers
caress my ever-reaching core
of being
My phantom lover
in my heart you always wander
forever unseeing
#vss365
A sweet litchi beckons
on the bustling market stall
Tempting
in a nubby

skin
My eager hands reach out
to unwrap this treasure
Revealing the juicy pearl
hidden within
Each bite is a symphony
a burst of flavour
its sweetness I savour
#vss365
#poetsofTwitter
In the mid hour of night
When stars are weeping
A
#dragonfly
flies
with nimble wings
The restless thing
comes teasing
On water gleaming
Flitting and fluttering
In light-blue gauze
Her waist so slim
She frolics radiantly
On young blooms devilishly
#vss365
#poetry
Upon the sad sky today
gray,
#timberwolf
and ash
her somber mood broods regretfully
Of years passed concealed in shame
Of a soul etched with stain
How long will she bear this pain
Is a child of merely five to be burdened with blame

When dewdrops gleam in sunrise
like a magician

#picturesque

soft subtle brushstrokes

sweet devotions

It flushes and blooms
vivid and lush
a tapestry of sensations
My artist's brush
#vss365
In the

glow of moonlight,
soft, tender pinpoints of light shimmer in the abyss of the night,
guiding my heart on a gentle flight

In a moment's whisper let's linger
Where the sky
wears her robe of golden ruby at twilight's mauve
N the ocean's blue bosom
glistens with waves soaked in
#vermillion
hues
caressed by an amorous breeze
Will we linger
Or will we merely be verses in a poem's embrace
#vss365
#freedom
a blossom unfurling its petals
to dance in delight in the breeze
in hues of pink
To twirl n whirl creating mesmerizing swirls
Will it follow a predetermined path
Or forge a new trail
untamed n wild
Freedom
for viewing,to inhale to a limit in a modern world
#vss365
I've made solitude
my sanctuary
Forsaking
the warmth of Man
Rivers I followed to cleanse myself with
#exquisite
fragrance
Endlessly seeking
nectar of dawn in virginal waters
Weary tonight, I lie on the grass
Drapped in night sky
Erasing the past
Ignoring future
#vss365
Stars of winter wane and pale
as dawn begins to unveil
a raspberry sky
to feast our eyes
Contemplating this sky
I sigh
A heaven we'll build
or our hell we'll dig
The power to thrive is ours
Let darkness
#switch
to light
falter not in the shadows of life
#vss365
#poetry
#silence
How shall I portray you
A living friend
Now, amid the hush that cloaks me
When pain ceases
Some would say
A peculiarly perceptible prickling stillness
The sound of a wound healing
Can you hear it
No, it's silence
A ghost
a mere shadow
not easily ejected
#vss365
Salty droplets
like ocean's mournful sighs
Well up in the corners of my weary eyes
Glisten
#high
as crystals on my eyelashes
Have you ever noticed
in this tearful race
Scarcely has one fallen, another takes its place
In wordless streams
they bear soul's heavy chain
#vss365
In the net of love
Time knows no
#budget
Lovers like
crickets and cicadas
chirrup and chirp
in the summer field
night and day
hours slide soft away
#vss365
#poetsoftwitter
When
#beauty
meets beauty
All naked, fair to fair
My eyes weep
When golden sunlight
weaves round trees
Mirrors them in water
that glistens and gleams
And tender breeze lifts
russet and amber leaves
wafting fragrance scenting the air
Earth, you're crying-sweet
#vss365
Within the poet's verse
Rests a tear
Rounded with sorrows
Did it roll
on his pallid cheek
Winding its way between
the
#frontier
of his shirt n skin
perhaps unnoticed
to die
nestled in the hollow of his bone
In the silence of words
Poetry sings,
The flush of tears
#vss365
She gazed at me
her eyes bright with moonlight's gleam
From her lips, no words escaped
yet
#deaf
she wasn't
for her wrinkled face always blossomed
Captive in her mortal frame
she lay confined, months waned
When
with serenity profound
Grandma gently closed her eyes
#vss365
Vibrant splendor
Veiled outside
By pallid and frigid light
Joyous jubiliation
Burgeoning
In the dark winter night
Release me
Let me love again
Empty my blueish pocket
#celebrate
me
Me, the nascent bud
on a fragile stem
That is yet
to bloom into
sweetness
#vss365
The blackened ashes of yesterday's fire
are the passion we once shared
Now, just
#charcoal
in the fireplace
with nothing to inspire
In the crystalline whites of my eyes
beneath the rosy skin of my fingernails
in my every breath
the smoke won't abate.
#vss365
#poetsoftwitter
I speak to the sky
but it echoes an empty reply
Like a caged songbird
I yearn to fly
So my world I paint
with
#zillions
of colored letters
packed with meaning and sound
vowels in assonance
consonants in consonance
until my words become my wings
until I am my own sky
#vss365
In an allegro
Autumn's colors caramelize
in a bittersweet glow
meadows
A melancholic crown
Russet, garnet n brown
Adorns the
#ground
As robins sing their songs
Water, like marimba
plays on pebbles all day long
My lone heart solemnly prepares
a winter aria in adagio
#vss365
Poetical verses I read
drenched in enticing linguistic scents
Transcend I
#escape
the blinding web of deceit ensnaring me everyday
Riddles whisper velvet and enchant
Subtle hints of teasing rhymes
A smile on my somber face
My cheeks,
in rosy tints and shades
#vss365
Blue
Its
#singularity
The sole hue
the soul has ever sensed
I blue
to the shadowy dark of my heart
All over me
Its darkest shades are spread Frosted, devoid of flamboyance
In fragments strewn
like a shattered puzzle
It's so tempting to forever be in
Blue
#vss365
If I were a humming-bird
I would flutter
with the wind among fluffy clouds
a firely
#twinkling
in tranquil sky
Over vineyards
savoring crimson grapes
scattering their seeds
along rivers on my voyage
But my feet
bound to the ground
heavy is my cross
with ache
#vss365
Pastel colors melt into charcoal
I feel it
On our very last morning
With the last fragrance of jasmine
A nightingale's
#chanting
Do you hear my ache in its pathetic song
I stretch my arms to you
Through the cold
In your strong form I fold
To gaze into your eyes
#vss365
Between us
A
#language
only we intimately grasp
Your eyes
Sweeten the air in subtle sensuality
Locking into mine, forging bridges
Our world entwines
closing like a seamless, sensuous ring
In communion
They trace messages upon my flesh
inscribing poetry upon my curves
#vss365
In a chiaroscuro's play
upon a stage
a Night, obsidian in its array
with a Moon, mesmerising
with its beaming rays
Sumptuously they embrace
their dark and light
with
#duality
entwined
in seamless grace
Would Caravaggio blush
in such splendid luminosity
#vss365
The ocean's blue bosom
glistens with waves of vermillion passion
A
#party
of coral clouds
adorns the canvas of a mauve twilight
Curtain falls on entwined rhymes
Leaving behind nothing but
a ghostly echo of existence
A mime of life in black and white
#vss365
In a wooden boat
my wounded soul
drifts in troubled waters
Eyes closed
I lie, awake,
in the dead of the night
Waiting, in this silence
waiting, in this stillness
for the promised blush of sunrise
to

#poetsoftwitter
Feathery flakes
fall white in thick rows
As light as feathers-fall
They softly and softly
cover the gray of the world
Women
carry the future world
in their wombs
Yet still noiselessly
they continue to fall
under deathly blows
#vss365
#poetsoftwitter
On a morn of spring
a drowsy
#Bumblebee
hums its tune cheerfully
flitting here fluttering there
With the breeze it swings
on stalk it clings
deliciously delighting
on nectar sweet of pollen seeds
A life so serene
my soul yearns to live
in a world that's green
#vss365
His mouth parched
To quench his thirst
the
#captain
licks his lips
Her wet fingertips
trail
like soothing balms
on his skin
Swells the bosom of the sea
With passionate sighs
while the breeze
in its seashell
murmurs an incantation
Deep silence blankets the sky
#vss365
Poems
with no
#denouement
are my favourites
Those
like raphsodies
Caught within the splendour
of a sigh
Those
who flutter at the velvet of words
When they sing desire on amorous lips
Those
whose whispers and murmurs
slip light under secret of sheets
#vss365
In the lifespan of a heartbeat
we loved
like
two fleecy clouds
adrift in a cerulean summer sky,
two rosebuds blooming in tune
in Monet's garden
Between here and nowhere
Between now and later
I hunger
for your gaze's magnetic pull
in daylight on the sheet of night
#vss365
Darkness in obsidian hues
in my mind's wearied face
slithers
My mood
swings
like a ball hurled through
a frenzied
#pinball
machine,
propelling me
downward
into the depths
of despair
where I slide ever closer
to being locked forever
in the desert of the night
#vss365
Murmuring, rustling
#rituals
of love linger for a while
under tender green and shaded amethyst of lilac clusters
A ritualistic rhythm
of melodious sonnets
of hidden sweetness
of drowsy scent of velvet petals,
comes to life, on my lips
as my breath sings the songs
#vss365
From stream to sea
Slow and tranquil
Never halting nor returning
Water flows indifferently under the bridge
Echoes of laments
Can be heard rippling
in the frigid flow
Where shipwrecked-hearts
drowned their sorrows
Yet still hoping
for a flicker of brighter tomorrows
#vss365
Upon my blushing cheek
#love
laid its first kiss
Terribly sweet
my heart ceased to beat
Was it day, was it night
heavenly
my world changed in a single breath
And when Death's clasp
shall enshroud me tight
Immortal
will lay, in my grave, my sacred kiss
#vss365
Last night
you visited me in my dream
Blinding me
like a golden sun reflecting in a sea-green sea
We were swimming
Bassoons and flutes were playing torridly
Your eyes haunt my heart
I'm gasping for air
Dawn is whispering
I need to breathe
I'll never be free
Of you
#vss365
like cherry blossom petals
in tints so pale
gently whisked
by playful gusts
we swirled and twirled
in a tumultuous ballet
our passionate
#kerfuffle
was but a fleeting caress
in time's tender embrace

Hues of gold-blue
Spread and stretch

Cicadas serenade the air
with recitals of love songs announcing summer
Do you recall that

shining with the scent of

Why did we not perceive the impending frost of winter

Now a yearning

I feel her breath but it's not me
my pink rose
forever lost in my shadows

-muse has fled
Beneath my steps
dead leaves crackle and sigh
Languid
I shiver, I sway
Reeling like a haunting refrain
I come, I go
Dragging myself like a weary shadow
Tell me
when will you return
Do you grasp
that time, once gone, is never regained
#vss365
A smile and a tear
A smile for summer that's coming With music of wings softly humming
With bird trills n blossoming of flowers
And languid sun-drenched hours
Yet, moonlight weaves a tale so clever
Destiny's hand, unable to

This is how one lives
When the soul's lifeless
Like me
Sprawled on moss-covered grass
Under the grief of the elm tree
Where the sun barely caresses the leaves
Explain to me what life is
for my eyes are closed
Is it your light I crave for
or the darkness lying behind it

The wind is playing a scherzo
Notes ripple in the babbling brook Blowing scent of sweets from flowing poppies

Mingling passion
with the gold of wheat fields
Rich radiant red,glistening

Sends my heart gleaming
with memories,of you

In the midsummer lilac's shade

Our hearts hushed, waiting
Delicate plumes of

A warm thrill coursed through our veins
Our eyes overflowed with love
Amidst tender green and shaded amethyst
we are still waiting
#vss365

I can taste it with my eyes
In the moonlight
of a hushed evening
At the ripples of the flowing stream beneath my closed eyelids
Bitter is the taste
when my heart blazes
whenever I breathe you
When my mind whispers "

Of the days you loved me

Your eyes
my torment, my bliss
Fountains of light

In my dreams I hasten

With moistened eyes
I love you

May my life
with your last glimmer
fade away too

Shadowy tumult stirs twilight air

Painfully you breathe
With deep n deeper breath Approaching soon the hour

Once more
I'm causing you pain

Words

Lilacs assail me in their melancholy beds
I yearn to sleep,to no longer feel

With the first light of dawn

To your grave, my steps hasten
Fresh morning breeze

Rosy-red rose

tainted with flecks of mauve
Why do you shy from Sun's light Was Night's sapphire so blue
That now you wilt and droop
And weep abundantly
Shake off this shroud of dark
Rise up

Resplendent and free

I walk alone the path of life
A somber raven in my sky
A stormy wind in my back
My steps in the puddles

Lightning on the horizon sends

The North wind redoubles
its slapping
But you

Storm
you are too weak for me

With a sorrowful omen
the

A whispering stream conspires with a mournful breeze
An opalescent Moon ascends
Reflecting the geisha's visage in the silvery stream
Suddenly, the sky's corsage tears asunder with lightning
And cries distort the scene

With facets shimmering bright
#olivine

imbued with a secret spell
cast on me a bewitching glare
My heart captured, my knees weak

those eyes hold me still
I couldn't flee even if I dare

as if frozen in winter's ice
Only occasionally

A gentle thaw breaks the layer of frost
Rivulets of warmth within my veins mumur
Yet
only its echo falls faintly on my ear
And all once more is frozen again
#vss365
In sultry embrace of glances
#fandango
of desires unfurls
Your eyes ensnare my soul
Each glance
a soft caress
igniting the symphony within
My heart, fiery

In hypnotic cadence
it pulses
relentless but unhurried.....

Her smile

Her eyes

She

The

A bitter pill he couldn't swallow Was, she remained a fleeting firefly

Whistles the wind through mimosa trees
A smoky wash grays the sky greyer
My flame weakens devoid of

Flickering feebler n feebler
Within me, nothing left

Simply I wait
for the final breath
the one to extinguish me entirely

A pink-white rose of delicate splendor,

Now, slumber in peace dreamlessly

What visions did you
avidly aim to

when you painted
Starry Night
vigorous strokes of swirling sky
cadmium-yellow moon and stars
Van Gogh

#vss365
The moon emerges
naked
from the water
and climbs the trees
from branch to branch
A myriad of fireflies

while rain-kissed roses
wrap the night
in a silk scented shawl
Slowly
we raise our arms to waltz
to the tune of crickets and frogs
#vss365
When love was a crimson rose
In its breeze,
hypnotic rhythmic flows
I was tenderly swayed
from piano to crescendo
That one fateful moment,
ice and storm destroyed
its radiant beauty born
Oh love, once you bloomed
now desolate
A

#vss365
The song of olive trees
Wind blows in burning buildings
Words that hold the world

Mothers with broken hearts

You
Bright stars in

A rainbow for you
All woven in light
With souls of flowers for dyes

Our love

Emptied and hollow, my keys now echo with sorrow
#vss365
Are you an illusion
Like liquid silk
you elude my fingertips
resisting the constraints of my lace
My heart yearns to seize you

But at the first light of dawn
you will leave me longing
trapped in your relentless grasp
My

Listen to my heart, aflutter
with each footfall you take
drawing you closer, step by step, my way
Like a

Yet, tarry not
Its blades may falter

My heart
like a sweet rose
unfolds on
#one

With grace it blends
into the mist of love
A kiss of raindrop

Buds and blossoms my poem
Coral dawn in my east

Can you hear me
happily sing
#vss365
Gardens of Night

Lush colors and sounds

Look, the last breath of Sun is fading away
Can you not feel, something is dying
From love's shining ring, its cherished gem betrayed us
Our woeful eyes raise to the skies
Side by side
#vss365
Flickering ember of my

You fiercely smolder
Enshrouded
in fading essence of my body
Survivor of my scars
In your eyes I see myself
In mine you lose yourself
Within me, you can't truly thrive
In me you won't blaze
In me you'll wane
In me you'll dissipate

Upon my blue screen, unfurls
A somber scene

Once, a promising

Beyond this suffocating veil
what lies concealed
#vss365
Wherefore are you drifting, my wandering soul
midway
#between
bleak rocks and barren shores
Where hoary waves roll and hiss
and the sky stands hard, pitiless without a tear
Yet safe within your frame, my mind lies dreaming
yearning for respite amidst starless nights
#vss365
Roaming in the
#morose
city
with its hidden dangers and vices
a homeless child
Here, harsh wind blows puddles dry
Fear, heavy on his eight years,

to forget hell, the streets and his tired feet
On his cheek, a silent tear..
a cry..a name..mama

In the morning drizzle
I write for you mellifluous sonnets Like leaves, I'm heavy with droplets
Rain, in its

The one he serenaded on my doorstep

with thunder cracking her eardrums In this veil of darkness deep
her sight is eclipsed
Her body tensed
sensing his gaze, steely, cruel
they pierced
And rain of blows, relentless, punched and punched
Will she see the light of dawn this time

In whispered secrets, my fragments whisper
Each shard a chapter, unveiling the
#damaged
me
and your Kintsugi-word touches me
adorning my wounds with precious seams
Embracing my scars
Embracing my entirety
I'm made whole
but still is,
this void inside of me
