Spring


Spring, my frozen body thawed
by
the brightness of day
the sound of wind
and the aimlessly shaking of trees ---

Oh whom should I blame
for my already senseless heart
is gonna be broken again
by
the careless touches of
fledgling green

Signore, ascolta!


Yes, through a gentle sigh in the dark
I heard her, Signore
she is a woman ---

Her sigh is like a pearl
dropping on the icy face of grief
with each quivering of ripples
she redefines winter landscape

Her bodyline winds through shores
like wind, pushes waves to a end of sea
where --- she captures glimmer of moonlight
turns darkness into sunrise

Her voice rises with the Sun
by each melodic tone
she turns the sorrow into music
music into comfort --- in which

she embraces us
with her mighty love of grace

Oh Signore, ascolta!
She is a woman
The Mother of the Universe!



This poem is inspired by Signore, ascolta* sung by Maria Callas*Signore, ascolta --- aria from opera Turandot, composed by Giacomo Puccini. "Signore, ascolta" is Italian means "Lord, listen" in English.

Rose


July, summer rain came
with unintentional harshness ---

Thoughts evaporated
into humidity, which
permeated through my garden
where I saw a rose,
blooming herself,
under the gaze of daylight---

She is naked
She is white
She is whiter than the winter Moon...

Tulip


Sitting beside a tulip
scrutinizing the afternoon
my thoughts slid
into a laziness
that once pervaded over my body
nurtured
a fresh dew at sunrise

Drown

Drown into your life
my sentiment grows
into fragrance
that once dwelled
within my imaginary grasp…

perfection slipped away
with your tenderness
in which I drown , I die
in which I
resurrect

If you give me a moment of silence

---

If you give me a moment of silence
I will write a song
sung by angels
If you give me a lift to horizon
I will find a color
paint the Earth into Heaven
If you give me wings
I will be an eagle
fly over sorrow
If you give me light
I will be the Sun
shine through
abyss

---

Woke by the morning Sun


Woke by the morning Sun,
my memory hungers
for a long lost melody
refreshed by
dewdrops ---

Woke up before dawn


Woke up before dawn
my dream escaped…

Running through the mist
morning hesitated
to cover up Stars
the Moon
and a sliver of
traumatized blue

Puzzled by how day goes by


Puzzled by how day goes by
my mind slides ---
into the shadows of lazy afternoon
pondering
another page of blank journal…

Savannah, Georgia



While rivers running through swamps
Blues
wanders along streets
softens sweaty shadows of oaks ---

Storms came and went
Oh Georgia
as humid as southern rain
my memory vaporizes
like Jazz
hovering above Savannah
