Classic Trio of 2010

As a lead up to the third and final part of "Remember September", I have selected three favorite poems of mine, written in the past year. They carry different messages, but are meant to speak to the heart. Their sources of inspiration were of varied sorts: from flashbacks from trips of life, to snippets of daily news, to even day-dreaming. Poem One Introduction: I'd just read about the Queen of Sheba, the wife of King Solomon. The poem was centered around the story on how she was astonished at the lavishness of his estate when she visited him. Wanting to impress the king, she loaded her camels with spices, gold and jewels but ironically, the king's greatness swept her of her feet. I merged this with the Trojan horse virus, specifically for effect. With this information registered, I played around with the story. Trojan Sheba Infect my heart thou viracious virus, Scarcely sighted by my many blind lovers, Jealous and full of real incubus impetus, Only conspicious

College Chronicles

Part two describes the ensuing events that followed that in the former. Its a true story retold for your reading pleasure. Enjoy! Introduction: We are still in the month of September. This is the continuation of the previous part, where a consistent rush of blood through my head deceived me into thinking I'd found my better half for life. Naivety rode along with infatuation and sensual gusto. We spent countless times together during the day, and also, in the dark confines of her room. It was like being in a Bermuda Triangle, everything became non-existing in those moments. Nothing really happened, that is, if you believe me......

Dancing to the seemingly beautiful beat of passion, our souls were fed on a diet of tender c

College Chronicles

This poem is the first in the series of documented events that transpired during my college education. With it many ups and downs, there were a plethora of purple patches within that four-year period. Sharing this is important to me due to the many lessons learnt, which I believe would be greatly appreciated by all-and-sundry hoping to delve into any field of life. Enjoy! Introduction : "Remember September" sums up the first few weeks of college, where my immaturity took center-stage and focus was lost from the onset. My books became my pillows whilst looking for love rendered me useless. Remember September (Part One) Those unforgettable moments trickle in at lightening speed when innocence perilously played a dangerous chord with caution Locked up in the dark cell of emotion and sensual need, time flew and passed by without my able attention. Excoriating my bachelor status for companionship, I searched high and low for that precious gem of a maiden who would glad
