Pictorial Poetry
 


River of Pain

After a lightning kiss,
from the thunder`s lips,
blood gushes out
of my tender heart,
with a sharp biting pain,
through the veins of my pen,
upon a deathless sheet,
lyrically splashing out,
the `River Of Pain`

Valley of Vision

After the heavy lashing
from the cane of the rain,
upon the hill of my climbing,
down I fell, scattered, broken,
but a spirit did the pieces gathered,
and boldly in a better way girded,
and while I rose slowly and walked,
sang the spirit softly and whistled,
through the `Valley Of Vision`

Lake of Passion

After the fiery caresses
from a melting ice of promises,
there was a huge swallow of liquid fire,
which ate a great portion of my empire,
but my soldiers survived the pain,
swiftly brushed and crushed the mountain,
from the undulating part of the land,
singing rhymes from the palm of my hand
into the bottomless `Lake Of Passion`
