Art and Craft

Living Poetry prompt – origami

Poetry is an art
Origami is a craft
Your lips recite beauty
My fingers work the magic

Shyness


in seclusion
hesitate to bloom

Ripple

My life flows like peaceful water
You come like ripples on a quiet lake
Leaving a mark of joy
Silence is a song that feels like poetry
The unimaginable beauty
All because of you

Earth and Tsunami

She is plain
She is unnoticeable
She is nothing to look at
Whatever she tends
They grow

She is passion
She is overwhelming
She is a beautiful disaster
Whatever she touches
They break

Colours

I love blues and greens
and the nudes in between.
The blue sky and the green hills
make everything in between neutral.
My eyes are too satisfied to notice
all the colourful butterflies.
Maybe I am just as simple minded
as the heaven and earth on grand display.

Cane

she is
as slim as a cigarette
as slender as a cane

only he
sees her through the smoke
knows her aiding quality

while others
are addicted to her
desire her punishment

 

Innate Sense

the modern labelled beauty
is far fetched from
the ancient admiration

visitation of historically
breathtaking iconic beauty
Aphrodite of Knidos
brings comfort to
my inadequate sense
of self image

I confess
I was sucked into
the velocity of
barbie fashion
while completely neglected
the natural God given
sense of appreciation

here
let’s cheer again
for her multifaceted
beauty

Raisins

We are like raisins

Weather worn appearances

Sweethearts through and through

IV – Kiss Collection

Cinnamon kisses are sweet at dawn
after an exotic night play
The remnant of the tangled souls
swirls like earthy warm smoke
infuses the haze cool morning
