30...Sweet mystery

Sweet mystery of destiny
streaming my river of dreams.
Just when I thought, I gave
all the love I could give.
You came and rescued me,
showed me what love really is.

Delightful perfumed rainbow
showering me with your mystique.
Just when I thought, I’ve reached
the top of love's mountain peak.
You showed me Everest
your mountain of love supreme.

29...Splendid

Splendid spirit, rainbow of the universe,
the immensity of the heavens in your eyes.
Graceful sensibility of divine nature.
Reincarnated spirit of true love sublime.

How is it I became entangled in your net
of marvelous dreams and endless skies?
Delightful surprise healed my broken heart,
sailed across the sea of love into my life.

Reaching the shores of my island lost,
discovering the treasures of my golden soul.
Looking for absolute love to be arisen,
embrace the happiness that once shone.

Manifested splendid wonder in the flesh,
hand in hand we'll go as destiny's elected.
Beyond the fringes of the constellations
to a universe I never imagined existed.

28...Silky eyes

Blue skies clear and bright
God bestowed upon your silky eyes
So when the tide of night falls
In your eyes they'll dwell all night.

27...The Place

Twirling index finger
aiming precise as a fly
with glee in your eyes.
landing tenderly on mine.

Gentle palm soothing
meeting mine kind
Flowing like a river
clasped hands bind

Morning glory’s light
lies within eternal gaze
Enchanted wonder
Love has found a place

26...Sandcastles

A smile is turning into dust,
a face is crumbling sad.
Cold winds blowing, slowly eroding
sandcastles on the sand.
Unspoken words across the sky
murmurs of a heart afraid
speak abundantly clear,
the castles you built no longer stand.
Washed away with the tides
and cold winds surprise,
good intentions gave way
to misguided trust and fear.
The game that was played
experiments explored,
served only to topple
what was built in my heart.
From this cup I drink
drunk on confusion, disappointment
garnished with pain
disillusion and resentment.
As I venture towards the horizon
with fleeting glimpses along the shore.
All I see now are footprints
where sandcastles once stood.

25...Heaven without stars

Caught between a heaven with stars
and one without the moon and stars.
Quivering peaks under a fragrant moon
moans and cries set these worlds apart.

Is the place where you want me to be?
Inside the closest star to me.
Your hair falling down upon my face
like a rainbow across the sky, so sweet.

Looking at the moons inside your eyes
the twirling stars beyond the skies.
My fingers running wildly through your hair
hand in hand we go and fly.

Close your eyes take my breath away
let us fly to the moons inside your eyes
to this heaven without stars,
just you and I, you and I.

Riding high between your moons sublime
pounding hearts beating ground.
Wrestling with the heavens in our hands
new worlds we both have found

24..Sweet Little Girl Lost

Sweet little girl lost
mischievous you
Looking for trouble
trouble looking for you.

Sweet little girl lost
not so innocent you.
Why are you hurrying
to step onto the moon.

Did you call out to me?
I did not hear your cry.
Did’nt see your eyes close,
feel your pain and died.

What's your hurry
my little girl lost?
To go on jump off the world
Get out at any cost
Get out at any cost

We’ve asked ourselves many times before
Is this what I’ve bargained for?
Is this all there is?
What am I living for?

What was your worry?
Why so much heartache and pain?
Why do I want to die now
when I mention your my name?

Sweet Little girl lost,
your silky hair set
dressed to die, best shoes on
your cold arm pale and tensed

Did you not remember
My sweet little girl
I loved you...we had dreams,
you were my world!

"Save your prayers, don’t need them no more
I got the smack…won’t cry no more
Don’t wait to see me cry
you wont see me when I die

Won't even say good-bye."

23...Dear Lord

Dear Lord

Though I thank you everyday
even when I wander confused and dazed
wondering why things are this way.
I thank you anyways.
Contemplating on the year passed
since I last saw the face of glad
One thing stands out above the fray
An angel that came my way.
Sent to save my day for a while
with gentle voice and sweet smile.
To allow me rest in comfort
Provide soothing words of support.
To remind me what is life
every time I gaze into her eyes.
In the simple conversations with her
To see the beauty in what matters.
For this I am thankful today
You sent this sweet angel my way.
Protect her as you do me
May she always smile and be happy
And when the day comes to march on
I’ll cherish her kindness unforgotten
Remember fondly with a smile
What a sweet angel I had for a while.
By the way Lord, tell her for me
She matters a lot to me
And if you please, it will mean a lot to me
a big hug and gentle kiss from me



Thank You Lord

22...Springtime in New York

Rolling waters of river
bubbly currents pour.
Beyond white cascades
clouds of water roar.

Sounds of harmony
beating off the banks
Rippled smiles stream
caressing stones glad.

Prancing about each stone
birds in love to and fro
The driftwood still…listens
to this song I now own.

The lone duck upstream
a curiosity on its own
Passing by the seagull
sitting upon the stone

Cool shades of willow trees
Kind gentle breezes
The daffodils blooming
The young hearts kissing

Springtime in New York
can be lovely it seems
Beyond a patch of grass
a river rolls free.

21...That was me

Did you see me last night?

That was me,
flying along majestic skies
seeking the entrance
to the rest of my life.

On my way I saw you
but you did not see me.

I followed the stars
beyond the galaxies
then it was clear
God was waiting for me.

Now I shall rest in his peace.


Did you see me last night?
That was me.

Authors comments:
poem dedicated to loved ones, whose untimely departure from this earth is sorely missed as it was the case when I wrote these simple words to bring consolation to my very dear friend.

20...All is well

When you see the color of the sunset,
When you see the arc of the sun's glow.
When you feel and hear the wind blow,
you'll know all is well, I'm in my own.

You'll see my footprints in the sand
as I venture unbowed into this land
and as I do, reach out, touch my hand
to feel alive as well, strong as I am.

19...My star

My star, my star I look for you
beyond twilight's last gleaming
and just when I think you’re afar
I glance and there you are.

18...Resolution

I’ll dream of us tonight as we are,
of you in more ways than one.
Then I’ll wish it New Year’s Eve again
before New Year’s Day sun.
For tomorrow I shall awake
to a new year’s resolution.
To have you 364 days and leave
New Years Eve for celebration.

17...Sweet Tiger

Sweet tiger of gentle ways
Stripes revealed by light of day
As the sun sets slowly fade away.

Covered in grace and silky lace
In the ballet of the night she preys
Sweet tiger under the moon plays.

15...I sit and dream

I sit and dream
in urban sprawling
of snowflakes falling
winter’s charm calling.

White lakes frozen
married upon the land.
Clear waters streaming
underneath crystal slabs.

The eagle flies proudly.
Pristine wilderness intact.
The moose beckons loudly
on the willow stand.

The lone wolf trotting
across the tundra it runs,
moving to the rhythm
of Eskimo's sacred drum,

Majestic mountains
on a canvas of snow.
The nanny and kid
along hillside they go.

Drawn to its frontiers
the aurora of the sky,
winter magic spells,
the eagle in flight.

Steep sided glaciers
earthquakes and ocean storms.
The sole architects
of this crown jewel formed.

I’ve never liked the cold
though strange to me,
I close my eyes
and there I lone to be.




DionWorx

14...Silky waters

Silky waters
Serene and blue
Majestic skies
Lie upon you

Across the continent
I see in your eyes
The wild air you breathe
Where the eagle flies.



DionWorx

13...You

Was it the glint of your eye
or the glance of your stare?
The blushing of your cheeks
or simply the flow of your hair?

The way your finger gently
twirled each curl to and fro
and sweet words dripped softly
engaging me with your prose.

Hanging on to your every word
clinging on to your melodic gazes.
Belonging to your world
of warm and sweet embraces.

Letting you kiss me dearly,
giving in to your desires.
My heart dashing wildly
through your burning coals of fire.

Gazing at your eternal sun
green pastures in cool breezes.
Totally in love with you
immersed in your total being.

Time suspended like magic
Close to your rainbow
Is this the place you imagined I'd be?
Seeing my eyes glow.

Because this is where I am at
The point of no return
Enamored, infatuated, with you
A place to love, live and learn.

12...Take Me

Take me by the hand
where you want me to be.
Show me the place
you want me to see.

Hold me like you want to
and don't let me go.
As long as you desire
keep holding me close.

Take me to that place
you want me to be.
But don't stop kissing me
not even to breathe.

On clear night skies
or of winter storms,
it’s your gentle lips
that will keep me warm.

Burning with desires
Passion's carnal delights
We and the aurora
caress crazy the skies.

11...Salvation

Deformed and tossed about
relentless churning winds,
tides of destiny’s waters
sweep me into its ring.

A melodrama of confusion
in a cocktail of turmoil,
noble gestures of pain
forging a cold steel coil

that once upon a time
fired the molecules of dreams,
fed brazen burning desires,
sustained infinite possibilities.

The moon does not glisten
upon these waters sad,
nor the stars like cherries
that donned upon her glad

Justice in the balance
found unparalleled absurdity
in the arrogant reality
that found me guilty of living

I spiral down in slow motion
down the depths of this lair
beyond the point of no return,
my salvation may be there.




DionWorx

10...Masks

Which mask shall I wear today
as I step unto this stage?
Life has so many scenes
where the truth has no face.

Masks worn to hide the pain
hide the smile when it breaks
conceal the deafening cry
of fallen spirits from grace.

This scene will be unrehearsed,
masks shall not be needed.
Truth is the star of this epic role
this epilogue chapter unfolded.

There will be no encores or sequels
no audience to applaud
These perfect masks I’ve collected
will be gathered and tossed.

Cast over the edge of infinity
with all my sorrows and woes
shortcomings, flaws and frailties
the recipe of a tormented soul.

I’ll take my final bow now
Close the curtain one last time
But keep the spotlight on me
to remind you of my eternal smile.

09...Dance of Venus

Savory blossom, with petals of love.
Let my lips caress, this blossom’s core.
Fragrant flower of fire and blood
with dewdrops of candy that pour.

Let me in the center of this universe
I want to be your gravity.
Let the stars surround us,
Venus dance around us in my galaxy.

My eyes see the glistening of twinkling peaks,
as my brow is placed upon the rose so sweet.
Dewdrops of honey trickle down my cheek.

Let me spread the door to heaven,
enter with my key of pleasure.
Pull you into my gravity.

Let me wrap you in my arms,
reveal to you new moons and stars.
Let me take you to my galaxy.

Let me fill your rose with love,
with pounding hearts, flesh and blood.
Let me nurture that gleam in your eyes,
Climb upon this mountain of love.

08...That Dream

I dream the dream, dreamt many times before.
Now once upon a time, I dream that dream no more.

I venture aimlessly along a stretch of road.
Twilight’s halo looming, beyond green pastures glow.

Spellbound and bewildered, steady I walk alone.
Raptured by the wind I’m on a journey home.

In blissful serenity levitated towards the sky.
Mind, body and spirit soar along majestic skies.

Rejecting all reason, surrendering my being.
I am amongst the clouds, the wind beneath my feet.

Like a child at play, I don’t want to come home.
Happiness is the fuel that takes me to and fro.

Oh what a sense of peace I can fly, I can fly.
A mere mortal transformed when you lay by my side.

As a leaf in the breeze, as earth beckons and bellows.
So shall I, fall off the wind on the edge of vertigo

My eyes awake to wonder, reality is my dawn.
Euphoria lingers on. Once again I am born.

I gaze at you asleep wondering in glee.
Are your dreams the same? Are you flying like me?

Quiet anticipation for night to fall again.
To dream that dream again and on that journey ascend.

Since you’ve been gone, I dream that dream no more.
I now must walk that path as mortals have before.

A sense of real happiness if only for a short while,
I was happy nonetheless, just to see your smile.

Of all the things said and done, until the day I die.
I’ll always remember, you taught me how to fly.

A recurring, lucid dream, Inspiring the verses of this poem and "I've seen things".

07...Reality

I shall journey on to the infinities
of galaxies and planets trajectories.

Leap from star to star my wretched soul
yearning solace in one your eyes may behold.

From that star I shall leap on to your moon
and into your open arms in full bloom.

I shall gaze unto the sparkle of your eyes
and behold the morning star clear and bright.

I will touch the star you touch and be one again
Then, the earth and the moon will be content.

06...Beacon of the night

Beacon of the night


Along which path do you walk tonight
lost spirit wandering in the dark?
Upon whom will you place your smile
when they bring the key to your heart?
He will be the one bringing the stars
in his hands seeking you as well,
yearning deeply to be with you
and bewitch you with his spell.
Gather all the stars from his hands
and toss them across the skies.
To blanket the hazy night
and put a glint in your eyes
used as a beacon in the night
that guides him into your arms.
Love you throughout the night
and create a new set of stars.
So when dawn smiles upon you,
you’ll greet it both alike,
with stars in your hands
to find each other in the night.

05...What matters

Turn your back on me,
go ahead look away.
Pay me no mind,
brush me off, it’s...OK.
I don’t matter today.

Go ahead get distracted
with all things vain.
Elasticity of plastics
the bright lights of games.
I don’t matter today.

Get preoccupied
if it's going to rain.
Where’s my big umbrella?
I’ll sort out this pain.
I don’t matter today.

Simple things I ask
with simple answers.
Not geared to complicate
but make you a better person.
If only I matter today.

With a little help
not far from today.
All will be well again
and I’ll be able to say
I matter today.

04...Questions

How does this darkness
help the grass grow,
challenge unanswered pain,
not poison the soul?

How does it help me see
the rivers waters flow,
the rainbow over the clouds,
the laughter in sorrow?

How does this tempest
dancing in the darkness
reconcile with the stars,
break down this black tent?

How does it bring deliverance,
help me create heaven,
fulfill the simplest dreams,
make me whole again?

Somebody tell me how
do I reach those shores,
sail this sea of discontent,
maintain life’s allure?

Not content with sadness,
sordid shades of unrest.
Deny me the cry
but not the laughter.

Deny me the bitterness
of unrepentant sadness
but not the flavor of life,
unmitigated happiness.

Bring back the aura of the smile
so I may live again,
so I may love again,
so it all makes sense.



DionWorx

03...I’ve seen things

I’ve seen bottoms of clouds
so close I can touch.
From high above the ground
I’ve seen pastures I love.

I’ve lost my feet in the air.
my head in the clouds.
Seen the sun as never before,
all my senses aroused.

I’ve seen the wind take me,
lift me up freely.
In a dream of dreams
I’ve flown insanity.

I’ve seen me not pretend
to know how to fly
but do impossible
kiss the clouds passed by.

I’ve seen me not pretend
to be a mere mortal
see your face in the clouds,
hear the wind your name call.

I’ve seen what the seagull sees
as real as the ocean blue.
Fantasy as reality
fairytale come true.

All theses things I’ve seen
lying here beside you
in a perfect dream
where Asian flowers bloom.

A place you have nurtured
with candy lips treats.
A special place indeed
where your love has taken me.

I’ve seen flowers blossom
the sunset and full moon
but never love like yours
where all these fantasies bloom.


DionWorx

Authors comments;
A recurring, lucid dream, dreamt thirty times or so in a three year period that lasted till the end of January 2005. A dream such as no other in which I glided with the wind in flight. A special feeling that has lived with me through this day in which I say with all certainty..I have flown well over 200 feet in the air for long distances, totally in control. happy like never before..Coming to the conclusion and belief, Man is able to fly but only in dreams...I was one of these fortunate mortals.

Inspiring the verses of this poem and "That Dream".

02...The simple things

What is there in a kiss?
When it’s your lips I caress
and in this simple candy
I’m caught in clouds of bliss.

What is it about your skin?
That drives me to madness
and the desire to touch you
reduces me to weakness.

What is it about your look?
When your eyes gaze at me
and within a simple smile
an eloquent silence speaks.

It’s the simple things I miss,
your skin, your eyes, your lips.
And within this trinity
It is you… I mostly miss.

01...Heavens

Lips that glisten moist and tender,
hills and valleys of torrid rivers.

My fingers run these corridors,
contours of delicate peaks that quiver.

Between a heaven with stars
and an enchanted forest without.

Terrestrial beings claiming a territory
twirling and whirling the stars about.

Wrapped up in fragrances and beating hearts,
quivering peaks under the shimmering stars.

Immersed in the flavor, the taste of you.
Moans and cries set these heavens apart.

I cast a silhouette onto this ground
and consecrate it as an altar.

So we may bear witness to the night
this heaven is not in the stars.
