Irresistible!
 Sky making love to my mind
  ...I reach for my phone

No matter its pose
 The heavens bare such beauty
  ...even in pixels




NB: 
Both shots were taken by me 🙂 from my Blackberry, and edited on Instagram 😉
 

Foul Weather (Rant)

Cruel star, burning
 Renders us UV-ray scares
 Glad I've got Sun-screen!

Barbecuing sky,
 Do you like your humans crisp?
 I'm almost ready!

Nerve wrecking heat wave
 Blame it on global warming
 Feels like I'm melting!

Exactly how I feel right now! 😦

Undressed

Barren
Stretched out
Naked
and
Reaching

Abortion
due to season

Unclothed,
Anticipating the embrace,
The white, crystal cloak
soon to bare over…
Blistering winds
do shake the buds,
Your ovaries
left
in cryogenic sleep,

yet

the
beauty
of your form
the
intricacies
of your fingers
the
vulgarity
in your structure…

Imagery savored in pixels

Your nakedness
relished
till yet another season…

Today @ dVerse Poets, Brian Miller is hosting Poetics and the prompt is based on photographic art inspiration (Photograph all provided by SueAnn) … Feel free to join in the fun! 🙂
Thanks Brian! 🙂

Dawn

Holding my hand she softly
leads me to the morning
Such a tease, from behind
my curtains she peeps and
distracts me from my sleep.
Hypnos flees at her whisper,
My sprawled body yet again
unchained..

Waking me from temporary death
She bids me live with song
from birds near by and the
growing cacophony from my
window, outside- testifying
to possibilities of what
the day may bring.

A times I wish she leave me be
Just allow my sprawled body
Yet she is ever present company
Her warmth
Her whisper
Daily piercing through my nights
She births new days
She ushers in the light.

Some day I hope to capture
her form through mechanical eyes
but only through words will I depict
her beauty until pennies fill my pocket

A likely conversation in the Niger-Delta between Mother and Child

When do we go home mama?

Very soon my pikin (child)
once the rivers stops leaking
when the earth is done drinking
and our home is no longer  sinking

~~~

What about Papa, when is he coming back?

He’s long gone my love
and won’t be coming home,
swept away with all else we own,
He now lays buried in a watery tomb

~~~

Who are these people mama, are they my new family?

You might say that in a way
to all, the river has done damage
belongings and love ones, vanished,
And now families by design, we manage

~~~

When do we go home mama?

When the freak rains finally halt
and the rivers shut their vault
…Have patience child,
We’ll soon be okay

Haiku #9- Preview to a rain storm… AT LAST!!!!

Nimbus veils in sky,
Electric displays within
Howling banshee winds...
