Naleen De Alwis Poems

Holding tight
In a dreadful fright
Of being smashed away, in the bruising darkness
A young soldier among the debris
...

You tiny plant in my small flower bed
with shiny flower heads
spreading the lingering fragrance
that nobody smells.
...

Never tired
Never dull
she comes from
East to west
...

Showing to the world
The beauty it bears
The plumage
Glamorous,
...

Song of the water
Never stops
Ceaseless singing
For centuries past untold
...

She
Clad tight
Apparent round oily belly
Half naked with
...

Lust, like tendrils
comes and envelops me.
Hold tight piecemeal
unknowingly,
...

Night caught
in the roar,
The moon fractured
fallen onto the hot sea,
...

Her wedding dais made

Seems the pyre ablaze of me
...
