In My Own World

No man is an island,
No more than he can be;
Above the water lies the land,
Not all is lost at sea.

From: No Man Is An Island by Subroto Chatterjee

Desert’s End

I walked in a desert.
And I cried,
“Ah, God, take me from this place!”
A voice said, “It is no desert.”
I cried, “Well, But –
The sand, the heat, the vacant horizon.”
A voice said, “It is no desert.”

From: I Walked In A Desert by Stephen Crane

Blue

I wish to be the sky
To wet myself in the horizon
With the blue of its sea.
In the this blue union
Our bodies are fused
In gargles of love and immortality.

Firey Sky

Morning sun creeps to my window
She peeps in softly to see
Then decides to put on such a show
She shoots brightened sparkling rays just for me.

Tua’r Golau

Beaten back in sad dejection,
After years of weary toil
On that burning hot selection
Where the drought has gorged his spoil.

From: Beaten Back by Henry Lawson

Fire and Water

Oh day of fire and sun,
Pure as a naked flame,
Blue sea, blue sky and dun
Sands where he spoke my name;

North Shore Sunset

We rise, we fly,
Over cliffs we soar,
One with the wind
By the windswept shore.
