Twinkle Again
I picked a pearl
and it shined so bright
i kept it in my pouch
and kissed it everyday
it fell in the mud
and lost the sparkle
i polished each day
and wished it to glitter
i lost my patience
and threw it in the lake
each day i sit on the bank
and wish the tides
would wash it ashore
and if I could turn
the hands of time
i would never have let it go
and how i wish i could see
that twinkle for another day
The Heart Of Troy
Bravery is for the wise;
the fools fall in love…
Of all the beauty of Troy
he saw none to conquer
but the trinket of a foe
he sought to entice….
Buried in the midst of
devotion; all rational was lost…
Widows, orphans
and noblemen would fall
at the hands of this insanity…
But the sight of Helen
was a marvel worth the sacrifice…
Warriors would offer
their heads on a platter
just for a glimpse…
Queens of all earth
were burning with strife
for none had set eyes
on such a wonder…
But this rare jewel
would tarnish
the heart of Troy …
These Are All Words
Your smile shines with enchantment
like a raindrop bare in sunlight
the freshness of your breath fills the air
and magnifies warmth in the cold
leaving traces of only kindness,
you are a princess not from this world
but a trinket from heaven’s palace
and a vanquisher of humility
your life is full of compassion
and your spirit is molded with joy
these are only words divine words
there are all words for you my love

About the Book
“These Are All Words” is a collection of poems that are intertwined with the subject of love. This group of artistic notes relates human emotion to the divine philosophy of love.
“Love” can be a daunting issue -simultaneously – it is a healing tool. The poems are moulded around general life experiences depicting that we are captives of love from the day of conception even though we tend to live in denial. In other words, love seems to be the reason for our desire to exist. We linger in pain and strife trying to find a remedy for our troubled souls. We become bitter as we harden our hearts, lose trust, are constantly feeling betrayed and blame everyone around us for the emptiness that engulfs us.
“Love” creates peace within us and our goals and purpose are meaningless when we feel distant from this enigma. There is so much to learn about love and the best teacher is yourself. Love is a spiritual journey that makes us look forward to a mysterious future, see the past as history and accept the present as a gift from God.
