Autumn Blues
The wind sweeps swiftly to disperse the leavesIt whistles and wallows in despair, it weeps The wind howls a distinctive bluesIt is dismayed that its friends it must loose The wind longs to fellowship with the treesBut it finds it too painful to listen to their pleas The wind has no say in the matterExquisite,yellow,…

Suspenseful Love
An inviting charm, a fatal attractionSenses heightened, forlorn lovers praying for their meetings protractionA medley, a concerto, a philharmonicSuspense rising, pain and pleasure experienced now are chronic Time becomes the enemy, slipping like sand through the fingersSights become memories; their scent is all that lingersThe wait resumes, the race renewsSeeking to be together again, another…

The Passage of Time
Certain moments in our life become a precipiceStanding on the cusp of the great unknown, looking back at the life we lived, we consider whether it was a victory or a mess? Call it what you must, whether predisposition or natural intuition,One always reflects on the journey that has lead to the proverbial ‘fork in…
