When the Witness is Blind (Minute poem)
When soul Blindness attempts discourse
Tracing the source
Of the Divine...
Fails to define.
Unseen Truth, unknown Experience
Destitute sense
Births hollow creed
To feed a need.
Worldly wisdom in professions
Rich confessions
These empty jars
Do not go far.

Your time is gold
And mine is diamond
So in Poetry's mold
I shall not abscond
Assure you that when
You read these lines
I write with my pen
Your hours are fine
Get a dash of wisdom
Be blessed with some rhyme
A better You will become
As I don't waste your time.

Mood Swings
There's no stopping the blows
Of swirling winds that take away
The homes and lives of those
Who may happen to be in its way.
Frightening seconds of angry force
And all are turned to nothing
No one knows what is the source
Of Nature's unpredictable mood swings.

The Page Is Broken
'The Page is Broken! '
There's 'Server Error'
If I am not mistaken
There could be more
'Wrong verification'
And 'Poet not Found! '
What is this confusion
I am alive and around
It is sadly discouraging
And dampens poetry
Is the site traffic clogging
With this mystery?

Sanguinity
To see the sunshine beyond the rain
To expect some laughter after pain
To Hope tomorrow comes again
And there lost dreams can be regained.
It is the fiber of real Strength
The will to run the race at length
Where every effort thus is sent
This is what Sanguinity meant.

Originality (Cinquain)
Mind fruits
Flow with sweet juice
No plastic copy matched-
Ripe ideas will ink the pen
With truth.

A Place of Solitude
Sea kissed land
Embraced by the bluest skies
Where waves caress
The sandy shores
In splendor,
Grace my eyes.
It's where I go
For Solitude
And where I know
The feeling's good
To live and breathe
Give thanks and praise
To God Who blessed us with
Such beauty in this place!

Let My Words Be Few
Let my words be few but meaty
Sustaining nourishment of soul
Laced with Wisdom, but not preachy
In Friendship's care, make you whole.
Let my words be filled with Grace
Heal some hurts and maybe bless
Words of comfort from one who prays
That you may find Love and Happiness.
