Shirley Houston Poems

Adualtion's esurient eye/
anticipates the chosen/
Rani/
as she moves in polychromatic effulgence/
...

Alabaster moonbeams/
like liquid/
streams/
through cracked windows/
...

Crystal droplets/
like morning dew/
infused with fallen Sun rays/
a refreshing impression/
...

Her presence fills the room/
like sweetly aromatic incense/
intense/
adding aesthetic ambience to the atmosphere/
...

incandescence streams/
spectacularly/
as he approaches/
my dream/
...

Aromatic honeysuckle/
& burgundy wine merge/
violently/
in the tenacity of a trade wind's fusion/
...

The poet rides recessive tides/tangled in regret-filled thoughts/stuck between hope & despair/torn between yore & fresh air.....
...

Travail has left her mark/
I bear the scars/
& weight of martyred/
innocence/
...

Can U/
stand in the gap for me/
when my body, soul & spirit's on 'E'
depleted/
...
