When I’m not chasing down wayward words or weaving dreams into stanzas, you can find me lost in thought, trying to rhyme something with "orange." (Spoiler: I still haven’t figured it out, but the journey’s been fun!) I believe in the magic of a well-placed comma, the power of a heartfelt metaphor, and that the best poems are the ones that make you think and leave an impression on your heart forever.

The Elusive Muse

"Who art thou?", for Shakespeare.
"What made you?", for Wordsworth.
Call you friend? Call you dear?
For for humanity, you are all's worth.
Ere daffodils and petunias fight in mornin’,
Who are merely darlin’,
Dost’ not the garden tell about you...

May I Master Her Maturity

May I master my mother's maturity,
Obviously, that is an illusion set in infinity.
Kitten's kettle in kitchen,
Den of dearest (me) in burden.

She heals my hurt, her heart I hurl,
Protects me like her pendant's purple pearl.
Boy's (my) best...

Burned out

Through the windows of those greenish leaves,
I can see fine flares deep inside.
With two men of humanity,
Burning their world.

The black puffs from those flares,
Few as them but not fair.
Distort the image of a house,
A house of Earth.

The Danger

Chop off, crop off - top of
Terra's trees,
Props of
Better breeze.

Ought to - be brought to, give thought to,
Sounds too bright.
Heard silently; now jot too,
Sounds of Terra's plight.

An expanse of beauty,
An aesthetic satisfaction.

Random visions

I see clouds of fog and mist,
And, a future uncertain.
Scripts in my wrist.
But, no cue and no curtain.

Two worlds collide and converge.
My self grandeur might submerge.
If something's false and you can see.
How can it be false if it...

I am also not a pro but believe me, this is a thing which wears up on you itself. Just keep reading the best ones and keep on writing. People misunderstand that poetry is just heavy words but instead, it's the emotion. So, whenever you feel something, make a poetry out of it. Compared to what I used to write in my starting ones, you are really really good at it.
