At night
Blind in the darkness—
So many reasons to sleep

Deforestation
Deforestation—
I search the internet
For birdsong.
A Maiden Sally
She sits pensive, this maiden fair
In solitude, she contemplates
Sojourn of capitulation
for nourishment of her soul’s fare
to where her yearning culminates
her odyssey to temptation

My Muse
Everyday you become my poem to-be.
Breaking Numb
From quilled fingers
I learn the art of
Letting go :
My heart learns new definitions.
Poem To Poem
Poem to poem
The journey of my life:
The way words change
Midwinter Night
White Fire
In icy blue twilight
Lily-white clouds glide
To a moon-kissed skyline
The hemisphere of
White satin snow
Unsullied..
Crystal fire
Pearly frosted
In my eyes
I breathe into the air-
Ivory bleached
In a sunless
Alabaster laced treescape -
Icicle chandeliers glow.
I, Yasmin
I, Yasmin
Just where me and I meet—
The shape of a poem
On an empty page

You
You carry silver stars in your hair I love the feel of your hair on my fingers bare I see the whole universe in the depth of your eyes You leave me breathless, my soul soars to the skies. Your skin radiant like sunlight on meadow Where I bask in the warmth of your inherent glow. Your smile, the charisma of a promise untold Sparking the air like sparkling gold. Your voice soft in its gentleness Falling like whisper upon my skin Leaving my senses on a roller coaster spin. Your quill spins a spell A spelling from the soul The embrace of imagination In the creation of poetry. # Lyric
