World in palm's hollow
Casting odd hallow,
Should man chase morrow?
...
My hands in empty pockets, stuck out tongue,
I smiled vain at a beggar's outstretched hand,
Hoping, he'd my helplessness understand;
The early sun was mild, guiltless like young.
...
A dog barking wild at back door,
A wife yelling at the front,
Ever frantic their groan and grunt,
Which door would you rush first and fore?
...
A poet, head heeding to no hard rules,
That walks tall leaning on no staff of cane,
Penchant for pen, passion with no refrain,
A student of own self, taught at no schools;
...
One on one, when lips speak with one tongue,
Whisper each to each as if in ears:
O let us forever remain young,
That in love, moments-like look long years.
...
The soft slowly cuts through the harsh
As it does the mild well as marsh,
Naught seems yon a soft-hearted man,
Faster cuts soft than harsh ever can.
...
_In a vast ocean
A wave vies to go nowhere,
Who does ever care?

Fate frowns at us— faltering souls for sins
Much as mother may reprimand her child,
Some call it a law of karma that leans,
To others good and bad are views so wild,
...
He that knows Him as one that kills,
He too that believes Him slain,
They both know not well,
He never ever kills,
...
They saw, met, fell in instant love,
And cooed together a la dove
In a love of first sight
That for a while burned bright,
