He saw the future
From the present
And returned there
To change the fate
Stupendous to face;
to follow the reaper
in a trail of time piled
in the memory river
And erased it all forever.

Dulcet, Capacious, Illuminate
She followed a full bright moon
That appeared from the ocean’s edges
Where day’s detritus disappeared soon
Under the arch of rainbows over the horizon;
Upon a hill across the moonlit lanes
She looked at the world below
Revealing wondrous symmetries
And every part of her breasting the breeze
From the ocean far away yonder
She flew down the starry stairs
With felicity that was not ecstasy
And resembled pleasure only
As the breeze resembled wind

Birthday Poem
The feast of St Thomas Aquinas
Banqueted in the celestial garden
By the Lethe, across the bridges
Between the earth and heaven –
There, Water-bearer of gods
Whose beauty enslaved the prince
To the passion of supreme desires
Served the guests from the universe –
Gods, goddesses, saints, angels, –
Escaped to his fancy of wishes
To return to the world, his Troy
That existed no more in this world
And spilled the stream of stars
From the jar that lusciously cascaded
Into the earth as radiant meteors
Becoming Mystery Aquarius Children.

Shelter, Gracious, Almond
Curious, timorous, adventurous
Alone meows, together high paws
Once an orphan now a forever home
The little heart writes her a poem.

Erased
She comes from todays
When nature allows her spirit
With the body growing revival
To cross the tumbling waves
And stops the flows of regret
To erase blotted yesterdays.

‘A Whisker Away’ (2020 film)
She wanders into a fairy path
And meets a fairy paddler giving
her a magic mask in return for her life
she feels joyless, loveless.
So she wears the mask in twilight
And wanders into the memory lane
Flitting as merrily as a happy cat
Forgetting she still has wounded heart.
