Poems On Friendship: Of Starlit Nights And Sunflowers
The poet sighs that pangs of jubilant, curious eyes are my friends, will wake me forever in the starry night.
On friendship
On friendship
Light is on
passion fruit- sprayed on
those silent boats
that never speak
in the starry night
oxygen laid on
Van Gogh's ear-
cutt off, bandaged,
never repent a tear
in the starry night
all because the night
and I will never die
pangs of jubilant, curious eyes
are my friends
will wake me forever
in the starry night.
Sunflowers
sunflowers dipping
into maple syrup
fluffy, oily pancakes
