Mint green
mingles in your mind
And you wonder what else could
You mix to make it dance: try
Melancholy purple around it
And you can hear them dancing
A mint circle petaled in purple
Almost like the earth and moon
Inner and outer layer of one

I wonder sometimes how one
does feel
Walking with their father man to man
For I never had the chance to
reach
Manhood to reach my father's length
Walk with him side by side
leaving
Two men's shadows equally flow
I was always a child till he
died leaving
Me wonder how I would have felt or he
Or what would we have talked
about and
How? Time makes wonder reach a silence.

My father was a tall man of
all order
Never held me close enough
So that I could feel his heart beat
No, he shone distant though
left a circle
Of warmth around me always
That encircled me softly surely
Care was given and shown
without
Much ado so was love silently as though
Adding any ado was an extra shadow
Yet I wish he had held me
close at least
Just once so that I could lift the memory
And examine out his body's fragrant tongue

My mother, I remember, was
like a thin
Spring leaf where a constant smile-light
Always spread a series of happy waves
Oh! How that smile caused me lose my words!

Have you noticed the way a
lily bud
Pregnant with the baby of space
Expands gradually working through
The light green making it appear paler
Smiling glimpses of white. It grows outward
As though the baby space inside growing
Full of fragrant infusion intoxicated and
Cannot wait to fly out and finally when
It breaks the bud out and flies into
The outer wider mother space almost
Being a near visible butterfly tangible enough
Almost dissolves in the space leaving
The fragrance spread slowly on the
Left out eggshell of the lily bloomed singing

(Ohie, Saahie and Raaneem)
The birth mark of their dad's
body
Below the knee they see that looks
Like small stamp and they cannot
Find anything remotely rare or fun
On its lighly dark face stuck on skin
Yet that's what keeps them
puzzled
The fact that they have a copy of that
On each of their bodies! Amaged
They are and wonder as to how
This birth marks mark them with
Their father. They now seem to
To look fondly on the genetic kiss

I stand on earth's grace
And walk under the dome of sky
While space becomes my body's home
I stand as a living tree of earth
Each step I take forward
I occupy the space where
I make a print of my totality
I move forward leaving a copy
Of my being there that is kept
In the memory of eternity still
So you can follow my walk
If you can trace my shape-prints
You could if you have the lights
These are the leaves of my living
They are eternally floating in the
Whirlwind of motion creating wind
Or better still let's make
prints
Walking together side by side
Like two rays of lights in one
Making and leaving leaf prints
On the invisible float of our
Beings' and living's laughter

Little space opens
A bud
Release fragrances
From a warm heart
Towards another
A warm bud would
Open back
A flower
Towards you
Always open a bud
From the heart
Towards the faces
That you face

Love is when one fails miserably
In distinguishing anguish and joy
Music and melancholy cross line

Let machines be your ride
Yet never be ridden but the rider
This is what you are: on the
horse
Of your imagination run and ride
Towards the dusty horizons of the moon
Transforming it into what you
see there
Which may not yet be there but would
Soon be elaborating out of nothingness
Because you are still riding on dust's joys

Plant a laurel bush there
first
A rose plant second in succession
First to sow the
shining-living
Mirror to reflect the sun on a dance
Second to show the lunar
space
How space gets to wear ornament
And intoxicate her being into
fragrance
And begin to wonder about beauty
