Taj Mahal
A supreme dome, luminescent
Amidst falling moonbeams
Sprinkled from the heavenly face
Of a spherical heiress to the throne
Of the celestial citadel, god's adobe
Her perfection only vanquished by the flare and wonder
Of marble's doming incandescence
Majestically holding her poise, yet pirouetting her splendor
A fortress entwined in the fabric of a perpetual love
Transcending time's legacy of an erosive suit
To resist nature's hemorrhagic peel, mother patience's invasive exploit
To bestow on the beholder, the life-blood of a timeless love
Undefiled from doubt or envy yet trapped in the labyrinths of mortality
For man to soar in the exaltation of a pristine love

The Nonsensical Enigma - Love
Love
The fusion of being
To an intangible wealth, yet a collector's bounty
When the heart is soaked by surging tides of affection
By the ingrained succulence of another life form
Partiality, transcending roots, kinship or pedigree
Fidelity, surpassing the legacy of your shadow
Devotees to commitment yet free of slavery
Reverence, exceeding faith's inventory of icons
When godship is humanized to flesh and blood
Where blood is rarely splattered, but worshiped in to flush
Where flesh is seldom mutilated, but traversed for pleasure
Where the heart is captured by both an earthly and heavenly desire
The endowment of wings to the flight-impaired
The gift of the fountain of sight to the unsighted
The bestowment of a compass to a wandering heart
The bequest on man, transcendence from mortality
To the surrealism of an earthly divinity
To hold in your heart, that nonsensical enigma - love

The Legacy Of The Soil
In my forefather's blood
Rests my gentile peasant legacy, of a dexterous islander
Born to the fertile soils of Serendip
As the seeds of my legacy were cultivated
On soggy terrain for an opportune metamorphosis
Golden terraces laden with logged grains of prosperity
A tribal farmer persona transcending mortality
To the throne of a medieval mythical kingdom
To the august presence of a sorcerer of the soil
A sower granted the wish of king Midas, miraculous palms
Sowing the twines of the intricate tapestry of my heritage
Where no swords were wielded, no blood was shed
Where no battlefields were fronted, no prisoners were seized
Where roots were laid and sprouts were sprung
A legacy like no other, to own the spirit of the soil
To harness the blessings of the sun gods
To garner the vitality of the seasonal monsoon
To cultivate hope in the promise of a bowl of rice

Falling In Love
Two of hearts, lace and satin, something in the air
Feel like another crok that's been captured by your stare
Uh-oh, uh-oh
Falling in love, falling in love again
Uh-oh, uh-oh, and i don't wanna no, no, no
Uh-oh, uh-oh, falling in love, falling in love again
Uh-oh, uh-oh, falling, falling
Jealous feelings, reappearing, such a wicked dare
I'm just so damned confused and i wonder, do you care?
Uh-oh, uh-oh
Falling in love, falling in love again
Uh-oh, uh-oh, and i don't wanna no, no, no
Uh-oh, uh-oh, falling in love, falling in love again
Uh-oh, uh-oh, falling, falling
Like walking in the park
Or dancing in the dark
Just wanna hold you through out the night
Prince of fire, sweet desire, with devil may you care
Release me from your spell
I don't want this, love ain't fair
I'm falling in love again
Uh-oh, uh-oh
Falling in love
Uh-oh, uh-oh, falling, falling
Uh-oh, uh-oh, falling in love, falling in love again
Uh-oh, uh-oh, falling in love, falling in love again
Uh-oh, uh-oh, falling in love, falling in love again uh-oh, uh-oh, and i don't wanna no, no, no
Uh-oh, uh-oh, falling in love, falling in love again
Uh-oh, uh-oh, falling, falling

The Mother's Love
A mother's love will tolerate,
A mother's love will celebrate.
A mother's love will ask no reward,
A mother's love will defend with the sword,
A mother's love will persist,
A mother's love you can't resist,
A mother's love comes from with-in,
A mother's love forgives all sin,
So I tell you true.
My Son and Daughter I love you.

Without Memories, The Heart Is Nothing
At the heart of my memories, there you are,
Shining like the centre of a star,
Like a diamond set on fire,
A soul I can admire,
I'm dazzled by your beauty, near or far.
No angel looks like you upon this Earth...
I'll love you from now on for all I'm worth,
No other love to own,
Just ours and ours alone,
As if we're now as one, assigned new birth.
Transcending wisdom, power, time and space,
Love can span the measure of your face,
Love can prove supreme,
In life and in a dream,
Yes, life can change the moment love takes place.
I'll treasure you each second left to live,
Togetherness and kindness both to give,
While there's God's air to breathe,
I promise not to leave...
For you're that heart my heart longs to be with...

Falling
(lenny leblanc/eddie struzick)
I think about winter when i was with her
And the snow was falling down
Warm by the fire, i love being by her
When there's no one else around
And i'm falling, i'm falling
I'm falling in love with you
I think about summer, my head was swimming
You wrote my name in the sand
We walk together hoping forever
Please don't let go of my hand
Cause i'm falling, i'm falling
I'm falling in love with you
Fall into spring time, like in between time
You're here and then you're gone away
Oh i just wanted to say that i really wanna stay
Cause i'm falling, i'm falling
I'm falling in love with you
Cause i'm falling, i'm falling
Oh,i'm falling in love with you
In love with you, in love with you

Love has no boundaries
Love has no boundaries.
Love is great, mighty.
Love fears nothing.
Love struggle, love conquers.
Love is willing to cancel his own person
rather than lose what he loves.
But love knows no half measures.
Love has no middle ground.
Love is not doubt.
Love exists or does not exist!
Love does not admit 'I do not know if I love! '
If there is doubt, there is no love!

A Caramel Miracle
Gentlest of pitter-patter
Soft transient steps on immaculate floor tiles
Glistening eyes that master
The art of soft magnetized gazes
To any moving life form
Gooey stares of affection
Drooling with juvenile exuberance
In the veneers of a pristine near-nakedness
A caramel Eros with no bow and arrow in sight
Just the pumping fists of a placid fury, a mellow restlessness,
As Aeolus's lip-lock brushes his naked clay
Coats of stroma awaiting springtime,
To spring forth a progeny of fuzzy follicles
Locks that crown his apical globe,
Sprinkled with fledgling wits, cocooned in to a spherical fortress
As he speaks the language of love
A vernacular that spans a boundless continuum
From fecundity to zygotic evolution
To the virgin light that softly settles on the retina
As the eye lids unveil God's miracle
Mother earth; with her supple breasts, awaiting their turn;
For a forward metamorphosis of a fledgling life form
A baby sent forth by God's intervention
Masterminded by two consenting adults
As two worlds collided in the name of an apical love
To spawn a caramel miracle, a trove wrapped in summer cotton.

Empty minds filled with pride
Empty minds filled with pride
Naked to a suit
Blown without a cause
See their body's falling
In a blood scared land of fear
Hear them call, hear them calling
Who's the master of my fate?
And why do I wait…
And why do I want…
And why do I wait...
And why do I want to die…
Oh bring me a white flag
To wash the blood from my face
And bring me a virgin
Of saving grace
And let love be the price
I said let love be the price
Oh let love be the price for peace…
But their body's keep-on-falling
Like seeds to the ground
But those seeds will never sow
Those seeds will never grow
Life it's what you make it
So don't go breaking
Your dreams of love
Your dreams of love (humming here!)

The Divine Storyteller
A storyteller on a pulpit, a podium of radiance
A lighthouse in the turbulent seas of humanity
Viscount keeper of the holy word
As stentorian discourse parts fervent lips
Uprooted from scrolls of time-tested fables
Scripts eternalized by the breath of divinity
Transcending age's resolute craftsmanship
Defying nature's chisel maneuvered by the palms of time
To capture the tapestries of divine history, twine by twine
To sow seeds of knowledge on fertile temples, to harvest charity in grains of deed
For the creatures of God to mature in benevolence, in the surrogacy of mother earth
To fly to the heavens, fluttering the wings of your conscience
As a lonely crusader battles with his arsenal of love and honor
To sculpt with finesse fragments of perpetual clay
To bestow to effigies of mankind the fountain of eternal life

Love Never Fails
Love is not proud,
Love does not boast,
Love after all
Matters the most.
Love does not run,
Love does not hide.
Love does not keep
Locked inside.
Love is a river
That flows through,
And love never fails you…
Love will sustain,
Love will provide,
Love will no cease
At the and of time.
Love will protect,
Love always hopes,
And love still believes
When you don’t.
Love is the arms
That are holding you.
Love never fails you….
When my heart
Wont make a sound,
When I cant turn back around,
When the sky is falling down,
Nothing is greater than this,
Greater than this…
Cause love is right here,
Love is alive.
Love is the way,
The truth,
The life.
And love is a place
You will fly to.
Love never fails you...

Astronomer
Your skin...........
A tapestry of diamond dwarfs,
Glittering on moonlit heavens;
Cascading from forehead to ankle;
A waterfall of ecstatic moonbeams;
Partaking perfection in a golden skyline.
Your eyes.............
That shimmer and blitz;
Like Venus at nightfall;
Twin getaways sprinkling highways of light;
Amidst your bountiful carpets,
Of diamonds and moonbeams;
Your hair............
Shooting to earthly gravity;
Like a meteor shower,
Bowing to a convivial tug;
Luscious and falling in a momentous bundle.
Your nucleus.............
Jupiter with her craters wide open;
Your magnanimous red spot,
Firmly clasped, in to the now boisterous mine.
All this celestial glory,
Purified to the retina,
Of my magnetized eyes;
For I am the sole astronomer gazing at your nightly sky.

Love Me Blind
Speak to me in braille
For love's language is for the blind
For love has blinded me so
Feed me with whispering nonsense
The butterflies won't let me eat
Breathe into my mouth
Replace the breath you took away
Look into my eyes deeply
And stop the madman love has made me
Heart to heart, find my lost soul in you
Days are shorter, life is sweeter
Words are prettier, the sky is nearer
My wings they soar
Your deep calls to my deep
The shallow waters envy our skin
The angels watch in envy
A love like this to man unknown
Who are you that do me so
I loved you then, I love you now, I'll love you more
Don't see my flaws and all I've been
Love me more for who you've made me
For who I am and who I'll be
Forgive my sins before I sin
Fix our love before it's broken
Time and I will war for you
Neither will die when it's our time
I will race you to forever
And forever will never let go
All is fair in love and war
I defeat time badly
And win you blindly
Forever will be you and me.

Oh My Dear
Tell me where you come from, was it heaven above?
Oh my dear, i must be falling in love
Can you climb the sunny peaks of a fortress in mud?
Oh my dear, i must be falling in love
Did i tell you i want more than you're really made of?
Oh my dear, i must be falling in love
Can you scope a purple blunder and admit that you are young?
Oh my dear, i must be falling in love
Tell me where you come from, was it heaven above?
Oh my dear, i must be falling in love

Ashes
Ashes
A timeless symbol
For the treaty of life
Signed by celestial nibs
The fabric of cosmos, seed of the earth
Bridged together by the conduit of existence
As vieillesse mutes the bonfires of the hearth
To expire to an exodus of the caged wind gods
Confinement of being within the walls of time
Yet man, a nomad of time, a pilgrim of fate
In the vastness of an earthly opulence, conquistadors of the heart
Gravitating to earthly chutes
As the impermanence of man is carried forth by the flux of fatum
Yet, caged by the trappings of mortality
As ashes befall to the realm of man
A requiem for the transience of humanity
