Flowering Snow

Much to my surprise, I saw the upturned face of the Crocus . The snow had not melted, yet, there was Glory of the snow poking out of the whiteness.. heralding spring .. these tiny star shaped flowers taking the sting out of the chill.

Flowers are harbingers of a much awaited spring stirring life, nudging everything that breathes , out of hibernation. The sun looked dazed , its pale aurum beams shielding me from the nip in the air.

With eyes as wide as saucers, I slipped out into the golden sunshine , looking for blossoms in the melting snow.

I chanced upon the Windflower on the arms of a tipsy , gyrating breeze, its petals all puffed up, nodding pleasingly!

My step faltered as I heard a yell and there he was waving wildly Jack in the pulpit dressed in his mantle of yellowish brown stripes.. his hues dazzled my eyes, before I could catch my breath , I heard a buzz. A group of female bees were out and about looking for the Ghost flower . I stepped back to let them go , feeling thirsty and a wee bit dizzy, I decided to hunt for dewberries. I found Narcissus playing all by himself , as he charmed the breeze and the sky. As I walked dry twigs crackled under my feet. I popped a dewberry into my mouth relishing its flavor and freshness.

My eyes caught sight of the stunningly exotic Birds of paradise . As I inhaled the fragrance of Hyacinths, Marigolds, Lilacs, Impatiens, I felt a sense of wonder and peace ..

A return to happiness with Lily of the valley , I knew I found it when I found the Irises , my rainbow at the bend of snow’s refrain.

Dawn

dawn~~
the sun changes 
his place in the sky 

I beg forgiveness for posting poems that have been published years ago. The last few posts have been written years ago. I hope to write again soon..

Sparks Fly

sparks fly
as eyes meet
warm sensations 
course through veins, kindled
by a sizzling chemistry 
between them 
embers 
smouldering hot
glowing, filling 
the air with love’s incense 
irresistibly drawing 
them closer 

Alphabets Queuing Up

I thought of a poem taking all the alphabets.. making words with each one of them . They were all so excited, they rushed onto my iPad pulling at my fingers.

I shooed them, asked them to form a line alphabet wise.

so obediently they formed a queue behind Q. 

Pack A Wallop

My shoulders
Carry the weight 
Of the world,
My shoulder blades 
are real tough 
they pack a punch
enduring the prodigious 

straightening 
squaring my back,
I take on 
travails and tasks 
of the psyche,
at the day’s end 
I lean on my own shoulders.

My Rock~ A~Bye

I lay myself to sleep in night’s sky 
Cradled in a rock~a~bye 
Moon hears my sleepy sighs 
Stars sing me a lullaby 
I slumber in the hush of dreams 
cradled in the musings of treasured reveries 
Feathered clouds embrace my eyelids 
Sleep unwraps the lattice of my yearnings 
Moistened eyes touch pillow 
As starlit shadows breathe 
A moonlit serenade…

I see heaven in my chimera.. 

Touched By His Flame

His lips leave a trail of shimmering kisses on her skin, leaving her burning 
Flaming passions, igniting spirit 
An ardour rising by the minute 

Onslaught of emotions caress, flow 
Teasing the senses to a crescendo 
Enticing her with touch amorous 
Coursing veins with fervour  rapturous 

She melts as he kindles inside her 
Cherishing a sublime memory 
Sync they in ecstatic oblivion 
To culminate into dawn’s beacon. 

White On Black

white on black ~~
in the soft quietness 
the stillness between birds 

Lie Detector

Lie detector~
His nose 
grows

It’s About Time

Do not blame time 
Time takes time
It can’t be hurried
It can’t be tarried 
you have to be worried 
if you don’t make use 
of time
Because time is worth 
all of your dime.
