Child's Play - Beautiful Ache

For Pari-e man

Come Find Me

 

Above the corner stone of my dreams
the gentle breeze speaks,
attracts attention,
screams.
Shiraz dancing,
gardens invite me
shadows and streams entice me.
Will I find the atol of my dreams
that promised to await me
through marble doorways
above thirty three bridges of my birth
will your finger tips caress and want me.
The cooly river in the desert invites me
and the gardens of my eden withhold me.
Dreams of your skin enthrall,
your gentle and warm kisses enclose me.
Come find me
somewhere in time
in the labyrinth of my dreams
come find me.

 

Remedies

 

For the lips of silence,
a night of quiet rage.


 
For the arms of emptiness,
flowers of yellow and lavender.
 
 
For the hearts of desire,
 
love
 
For ever.

The Stages

 

The stages I peak into, Peak out of
like a cocoon waiting to be born once more.
Once more, I await for you
to find me in the crowd
of those who want to be found
by you.
The silken web, You weave, I unwind
And unwind;
It's been years meandering in the tangled path

of your maze.
Today
At last
has found me.
Wings of eyes,
Delicate,
Lavender,
Lavishly bejeweled
Making love
To the warm breeze of summer.

 

Impressions

 

 

Some destiny, to be
Lost in Time,
This apparent final refuge;

 
Time,
 
 
An undisturbed dimension of unexplained coexistence,
 
 
Where souls mingle just in passing.

 

 

HtwoO

 

 

Ocean breathes
Ocean breeze;
Ocean breeds.

Seems sterile,
Empty,
pure and cleansing,
like darkness,
like light,
like a love
sent from above.

I turn away,
and back again,
it seems alive,
like a jungle,
roaring,
full of life,
anger,
and calm.

And we,
walk,
on the outside
wishing,
jumping high,
floating in its twizone,
tempting life,
on its borders of daring,
searching,
dreaming,
yearning.

Tiny droplets of plenty.
Reflections of life, thundering...
Water,
washing,
connecting us
together,
to the other side.

Fourteen

 

Last night
was,
the night before....
lonely.
I am
and I am not
a fool
not a hero....
I have never been
your hero.
And you have possessed me
and you have never,
it seems,
needed me,
wanted,
cared...
for me...
No,
It was never your place...
I suppose.

Last night
was,
the night before,
and the one before that...
Memories keep me
emotions
speak me;
flow me,
and throw me.
And now,
you are at the end
of this year
and I fear
fifteen
will be another,
like last night
for me.

 

Thirteen

 

Days we have spent;
years that became
yours,
but mostly mine...
years that became
minutes,
I think sweet at times...
Thirteen;
sometimes seems fine
but not this time at all.

 

Lives have moved;
loves that seem to vanish
leaving such vacuum...
in my every fiber.
Lives have moved
so far away...
even when living
beside me...

 

And I am covered
with memories;
skin falling
lifeless;
your skin
that covers
me.
skin,
lifeless and cold
like the weightless snow;
Like love
that once lived,
and now heavy,
on my soul.

 

Where did it all go,
the love that I thought
would live
for ever,
not thirteen.

Fifteen


Quiet
Sigh,
Befriend the pain.
Has anyone seen the sun,
Now,
Some supposed it would
Shine
Through the rain.
Droplets
Pelting,
Gentle meadows
Have never been
So steep;


Guess I know,
Now,
True lessons
Are never cheap;


Sigh,
Quietly,
Whisper
A lie,
Face up
To the rain,
In the shackles
Of hope and religion,
Gently
Die.


The truth:
My angel,
The best.
Moon face,
Sweet,
Beautiful heart
Of mine.

 

Terra

 

Open wings soaring watchfully
The sun, the ocean breeze, squinting
Wisely balanced orb

Butterfly

 

 

Oh goodness gracious me

There's a butterfly in my tree

I am only an arm's reach away

It hasn't yet begun to flee.  

 

Oh heavens from above

It has flown to a foxglove

I'll remain hot on its trail

It inflames my emotions of love.  

 

Dressed in attire of velvet

Living a short life without regret

How much more beautiful can life be

In colours one can never forget.  

 

Will you let me touch your wing

A touch worthy of a small sting

I'll stay in love with you for ever

I assure you my love is not a fling.  

 

Oh alright fly out of reach in play

You fly here, there and away

But please come back soon my dear

I'll grow flowers for you to stay.

Reaching For You

 

 

Oh beloved,

I foolishly thought about you

When the rainbows of my trip

through the days of ages

passed me....

--slow

into darkened days.

Slow, like a ship

slipping away,

a ship

that left me inside the rain,

in an ocean of sorrow.

 

 

Might there be another thought

Inside the dreams expanding

Through time

Raging and rushing

As you sail by?

 

Jettisoned free birds flying

Over and over.... 

Obstacles insignificant, in perspective

Never getting in their way -- but for us!

 

Does a sentence never end

Off the beaten path

Of the road of no return?

Sunshine, my love, is setting, destined

To the ends of the earth...

Every day, you pass me by

To the end of my time.

 

Does my sentence ever end

As I wonder about some sin I can not recall!

Ravaged soul of mine reaching out to you

And I can not touch you

My beloved.

,

Have I paid my dues

An aching heart that will never

Mend, burning, yearning,

In the abyss of this

Never-ending love for you.

Dreams I Retrace

 

 

Inside my innocence and gentle grace

I kiss a dream of our tender embrace.

I wish for you in dreams and prayers

and take apart our needs in layers.

I follow my path to the shore

and melt in the kisses I adore.

 

And there you are

waiting for me.

 

But it's time again to be alone

and recall the sins we atone

Will you remember kissing the rain

and the needs that drove us insane.

I can see again we are waiting

in fragrance of anticipating,

I touch your love in our hiding place

and distant dreams I retrace.

But time has left our dreams in the past

and a love we thought would last

will tomorrow reveal a bond

as we circle our wishing pond

I can not say

If we'll ever stay.

 

But there you are

waiting for me.

There you are

aching for me.

 

Is there a chapter in our book

giving back the love we took

Is it too much to expect

from circumstances we both reject

To let us awaken from one more dream

as we reach to embrace a love supreme.

​

I follow my path to the shore

and melt in the kisses I adore.

 

And there you are

waiting for me,

And there you are

aching for me.

 

And I trace my path

back to my dreams.

And there you are

waiting for me.

 

Insy-Binsy Spider

 

Oh Angel,

Your 'pider

and spider ....

insy binsy spider was yours

since time began...

That was

the Big Bang.

It wasn't itsy

and never bitsy,

Just something glitzy

a memory

that makes me smile.

your very complete

way of expression

your very beautiful

progression.

You made me smile,

You made me,

and, so,

I smile.

Your itsy-bitsy

was ritzy,

your cheeks

so blitsy

when the 'piders

ran up the spout again.

Memories,

So sweet,

even the spiders are smiling,

in the rain.

 

My Other Hero

 

In the warmth of memories and sun,

in the cool breeze of the rising moon,

there is another hero of mine,

that I love

whose hands and cheeks I kiss.

There is a hero that i reminisce

a loved one who I miss,

every hour of my wandering wakefulness.

A gentle giant of the ages

tender and warm.

Mortal,

A soul beautiful as love,

who in stories of times past

and moments to come,

remains immortal.

Quietly and confidently he speaks,

ubiquitous in my world,

 

Never disdain

his servant,

I remain;

my other hero,

my son.

A Day At The Cottage

 

The breeze
the wind
the sun
the shade
the chair
the swing.
The cat
the fly
a bark
a cry
the cloud
blue sky.
The lemonade
the beer
the butterflies
the leaves
the flowers
the bees.
 
I sense
you feel
I observe
you see
I lament
you smile
I cry
you laugh
I love
you leave
I clinch
you relax
I run
you sit
 
I possess
you give ???
I hold
you
you behold !!!
I see your face
you feel my skin !!!
I read your mind
you sigh to breath
I touch your hair
you touch my lips
I kiss your lips
you kiss my lips.
 
Oh, the sun feels good
 
when I'm in love
with you.

Sixteen

 

Spiraling again

I look to the shore,

your harbour light

dimming

my memory fading,

against the waves

I am slipping;

Spiraling again.

Fading

into the quicksand

of the abyss

And I call your name

and convulse,

flower of memories

you toss

into the ocean--

my love

you repulse.

A leaf in the wind

a cobblestone

neath your feet,

I have become,

a bleeding heart

limp now,

fallen,

your father

the simp now.

Spiraling again

in the eclipse

of your rainbow

calling your name

outside your window.

Oh beloved,

Can sixteen be the end

of all this!

 

Roaring Rage

 

 

Love,
Sweet love of my life,
tell me why you hide.

Asking for ever
if you would come to me
but a simple word
you deny.

Must I live
for ever in waiting
must I be gone
must I die.

Love,
Sweet love of my life,
these tired eyes
can no longer cry.



I fell asleep, it seems
in the hunger
of your needs.

My voice now drowned
in the roaring wave
of rage it seems.

Where is the love,
teachings of the past,
the smile
that beams.

Was anything ever real
a voice is dying to know
the voice of love screams.



Too late to evolve me
it's time to absolve me
best to revolve you
and resolve me.



Running from the sound
of the footsteps
of a child.

My dreams are vivid
but I never see you;
eyes open wide.

I am tired now
it's time to sleep
it's time to hide.

I will love you
for ever
even though yours is hiding,
seems denied.



Not too late to love me
my pari,
nAzanin,
my angel
always above me.

Dust of Ages

 

 

She wants
her own chaise
and cubby shelves,
lost in information
and cognition,
I need to forget.

Spider webs
Across every square.  
Birdseye view
of a room
And the bats
seem they can't get through.
Clock ticking away
As my fuzzy feet
Hum and sway
like a spider
resting on its web
seeming uneasy,
shivering,
shimmering
sturdy.

soon,
very soon,
the kiss of an angel
will calm conscientiousness
and the worry
of every soul
trying hard
not to find me.
Soon,
memories
that confine me,
will torture
and try me,
don't hold
or attempt
to calm me.

One day
she sat on her chaise
looking into her own mind
and dusty shelves
of the future and past
as I tried hard
to hold her hand.
One day
she may awaken,
as I sleeplessly lay
in the dust
of forgotten dreams.

 

There is no one here.

 

Wish I Was

​

Wishing I was a hero
Not for a nation
Not for a notion
Sparking commotion
Or emotion.
Wishing I was a hero for my son and daughter
The gentle saving ripple
In the water,
The one who saved
And caught her.
Wishing I was a hero
in her eyes
The one who holds her
as she sighs,
In her loneliness
when she cries
Wish I was the star
In her skies,
A hero
That never dies.
Wish I was.
