Enclose the closeness in your soul,

 Enclose it as you enclose the ''uco'' in cornucopious.

 Enclose the gray transparency in your sky,

 When it is so close to your coming clouds.

They are the dimples of your cognitive space,

They are hollow thoughts,

When you set your ideals at naught.

 Those clouds are inside of your gray

 As close as the ''co'' in the cocoon,

Those clouds are fulfilled with your leady rain.

They are…

There is an explosion of green life in the light,

 This life extrapolates  all its emerald green.

This life needs its eternity to be as tight

And as deep as an icy queen needs her own sheen.

 And all the colors of the rainbow may be seen

In different amounts to the different shades.

 Blue iris is placed in a complex world of green.

 Into the flowers’ bed, these flowers are like spades.

They need to reassure, as Pantone may…

PSALM 37

A Psalm of David

FRET not thyself because of evildoers, neither be thou envious against the workers of iniquity. For they shall soon be cut down like grass, and wither as the green herb.…

One learns myriad lessons

   on life...

One improves his skills

   in questioning...

One internalizes the values

   of humility...

One expresses his appreciation

   on nature's beauty...

One relies on all his senses

   even common sense...

One assimilates the ambivalence

   of emotions...

One conveys his gratitude

   to other travelers...

One realizes his dependence

Truest Essences Of Purity

She slowly opens her quiescent heart


like the sacred Nymphaea pondweeds

I go there often to watch the snowy egrets

The dead waters ripple as the zephyr kiss's whisper

humming through the papery birch woods

I seen her standing by the covered bridge

The one where we carved a rose blossom

while the mint festival was in full bloom

…fresh picked mint is…

Upon seeing a class picture

Upon seeing a decade-and-one-old photograph

Where I am one of the shy stars

Where the innocent faces feel the space

Where the focal point is a motherly mentor

This heart pulsates with

The singing gratefulness

And the lolling longing.

And so I feel thankful

That I had that bliss

Deo Gratias

Thanks to God

For all the blessings

For your mercy

For your grace

I need not say

But cathartic as it may

I dare say:

Deo gratias!

A million times

Or more

Deo gratias…

Thank God…

Thanks!

As I delight in poetry.

10 SIGNS OF CUPID-STRUCK

While sipping a cup of coffee and listening to Kenny Rogers’ “I Will Always Love You” one morning, my mind was tickled by the thoughts of falling in love or having fallen in love.

Have I fallen in love?

Yes! I have fallen in love. As I was lost in my “bullet train-running thoughts,” I remember simple signs usually observed among enamored people. So, did I observe significant signs?…
