MY BELOVED

In what language have you not been praised in?

For in every millionth movement of this moment

Every continent contemplates

about the light that radiates from your face

Your greatness is a tale that time cannot translate

Your noble character is a jewel for which space could not find a place

And though space spread

And Time talked

neither could attain the full expression

of your perfection

Souls struck

by your benevolence pour out layers of love

Placing abstract dimensions in humanity’s palm

Proving that poetry was created

Precisely for your praise

And that all forms of praise to you

Are poetry inked in infinity

An action by the Absolute

And His angels

A personal invitation to the faithful

From The Supreme

What fault do you find in the lover’s adoration?

Let it be yours

Let me be!

For love is the language created to praise my beloved

Love is the explosive expression from my heart to Muhammad

Love's sacred salutations are upon him

LOVE LETTER

Love Stories tickled our ears over ages

Poems of love have poured from hearts that have been under love's spell

Love's marvels are said to be too magnificent to tell

Love 

For you hath humankind poured palaces

Whose walls and floors 

are a cement of wars, ink, myths 

and marble made from paper, legends 

and poetry perfumed by pearly prose poured by Persian Poets

For you hath nations beaded patterns of volcanic emotions,

Many souls have sought you in the chemistry of  magical potions

Many hearts have consulted the stars the wise and the deluded

and so many hearts remain awake in the sleep of love in hope to dwell

forever more in your gardens that flower with fantasies most supreme

many souls remain in the imagination of love

imprisoned in the melody of the passionate flames 

of a fire that promises pleasure

But you remain hidden from the eye beguiled
by the garden or the fire in places higher

preserved for those who understand the harmony that harps havoc in their hearts  

The scent that sent their souls on a soul journ

So many have spoken of and yet so few have seen and even fewer tasted

leaving those that tasted wasted in wander

And so I ask
In the alphabet of time and all the letters written by humankind whose pen has unearthed your secret and the secret of your secret?

Love my desire
Though dozens upon dozens are drawn to your dancing flame  and others  disappear in the motion of your melting melody...you remain my desire

Love my desire
Though many faces are light with delight from the delicacies of your garden gorgeously laid with bewildering beauty...you remain my only desire

Love, leave not my side
least insanity eat me alive

Love, leave not my soul
Least my breathing becomes lifeless

Love leave not my mind

For if my thoughts become 

void of your thunder

My universe is split asunder

Every Moment an immortal torture

That would leave me mind less

Love forget me not

For you are my only Alphabet
And you are my only letter

POETRY'S PILGRIM

Poetry's Pilgrim

Her soul branches
like pillars carrying the sky
her journey is greater than 
the bark of the great baobab
Pen and ink are her only provisions
With every tear that falls
A line of ink evaporates
as she remembers
she forgets

The beloved is dear
The abstract is near
Her canvas is clear
There is no thunder
pouring in hear ear
The end is here.

The pilgrim once plowed
The poet once penned
The world was once loud
The universe once weighed an ounce.

LOVE IS FOREVER

Love not needed
Heart not seated
In the bond love beaded
Love not needed
The lousy lie has ended
Between the need necessity kneaded

Love not needed
What Frost bit cannot be heated
The red Ruby's romantic reflections cannot be repeated

Love not needed
All of Hope's oceans have been depleted
The artistic army of affection has been defeated

But..

Love will forever be the need
Love is forever the fruit and the seed
Love is forever the dance and the reed
Love is forever the sword and the shield
Love is forever the word and the yield
Love is forever the rain forest and it's flowering green
Love is forever what is heard, felt, seen and unseen
Love is forever the sleep and the dream
Love is forever the scent and the scene
Love is forever the thundering water and the rivulet serene
Love is life's light and everywhere that light has been
Love is forever frozen in every movement seen
Love is forever what every breath breathes to mean
Love's golden gleam germinates like wonder within

Love is a song soul never ceases to sing
Love is Beauty's only thing
Love is a secret sown by spring
Love is only known by the loving
Love only leads to Love
Love only needs Love
