Gogyohka Blog Part 2



an early ~blessing morn ~ tatterdemalion clouds~ at dawn ~ sunrise on desert dune




I hear
            you
                        between
                                    the stillness
 of dawn and morn

i feel
         your pain
 let me
kiss away
 veiled infamy  

may you have
            lovely memories
 that are
warm and
 comforting

sometimes
in life
one has to know
which bridge to cross
and which bridge to burn


the longing look in
                        your eyes
 is inadvertent
 allure to
lure me


at dusk
            i turn an ecdysiast
                                     a must
                                                to satisfy my lover's lust
                                                                                    a nude enthusiast



never
       allow
               anyone define
                                  who
                                        you are

maybe
           i shouldn't
                         love you more
                                         until i am certain
                                                              i've loved you enough

sometimes
                 the best things
                                       start from
                                                        simple gestures  
                                                                                a smile, a hug, a kiss

giving isn't just money
a gesture
of sharing your time
                                                            helping and concern for others
that’s giving

let me clarify
and specify
                          that i'm not inclined to personify
             pacify
                                                                               nor pontify

seeing
loving couples
around me
                                    makes me wonder
                                                            where mine is

life's difficulties
                        intended
                                    to make 
 you better
not bitter



in seasons
when embers
of desire rise
let me hug you
just for a moment


keep the smile
close the tension
enjoy life's passion
leave the pain
live again


will our words
            echo through
                        the centuries
                                    how we lived
 how we loved


if you want
            the rainbow
 you gotta
 put up
 with the rain


just learn
            to live
with the
                                    pricks
                                                in your life

Gogyohka Blog


in twitter i follow several poets from different countries and by happenstance saw poetic posts with the hashtag gogyohka and checked what it means. 

#gogyohka is a new form of Japanese Poetry which simply means verse written in five lines. for a variety of tweet posts i gradually tried gogyohka and posted them as either #gpoem and #5lines.  here are some of my favorite five lines.
  


Eidolons~final~journey~ through~ the light




in both
my early
and late moments
you crowd my thoughts
you saturate my emotions

sometimes
life isn't waiting
for the hurricane to pass
it's about learning
to unwind in the rain

will you believe me
                        when i say
i'm still here
loving you
quietly

when i'm 
melancholy
i revisit your poetry
            i still believe
you did cherish me
real people
             aren't  
                     perfect
                              perfect people
                                                  aren't real

i'm his magnum opus
              he plays me nimbly
                            between pianissimo to fortissimo              
                                                              allegro to virtuoso
                                                                              until I reach grand crescendo


often
          our lives
                     are punctuated
                                          by moments
                                                         of staying or leaving

childhood memories
                        of agrarian
                                       related follies
                                                  catching butterflies & fireflies
                                                                                scared of goblin and fairies

 grotesque pain
                       envelop me
                                        as i close
                                                     life's incomplete
                                                                                 chapter

if I could choose
                        to be anywhere
                                                with anyone
                                                            i'll always choose you
        where ever you are

read me
            when i'm silent
 i may be crying inside
                                                                mulling a problem
                                                                                             needing a hug

sometimes it's
better to stop trying
to fix something broken
start all over
and create something better

gradually
            the enigma
                        unravels
 endearing
 pieces of you

Sixwords love Blog



february is considered love month which inspired me to tweet a daily sixword love poem  



love, love , love ♥ love is inspiring

 
love someone
deserving not
someone desirable


what's love  in me is you

your love ♥
alleviates
all my pain


love someone

not head


true love ♥
caring honest
nurturing, lasting


I love ♥ you
you complete me


you're my sunshine
in life's rain


lips may lie
but eyes don't


i love you ♥
not an infatuation


loving ♥ you
hard habit
to break


love ♥ is
never saying
you're lonely


wish you're here
to love ♥ me


you're the air
that i breathe


imagining am caressing
kissing you now


you're my sanctuary
against life's storm


you're the melody
in my song

 
you're my moonlight in life'dusk


you quietly calm
my inner storm


you're the twinkle ♥
in my eyes


you're the mirth ♥ in my laughter

you're the
evening mists
moist kiss



i love,
how you
love me

loving ♥you is
nirvana to me


you're the
lovely colors
of autumn


you are sunrise ♥
in my dawn


need your warmth ♥
in cold mornings


your lovely words ♥
are soothing music


you define love ♥
in your verses


you're someone
i love ♥
to love


you're sparkling dew
in my mornings

 
 you're my rainbow
after life's storm


in this moment
i'm missing you

 
maybe i
shouldn't love
you more


till certain
i've loved
you enough


i'm totally lost
in your love ♥
