SHORE - POEM BY WILLIAMSJI MAVELI

SHORE
The seven colors
 of the rainbow
I washed
Except black, the darkest color,
except that,
Midnight Shadows, Heartbeats,
Rays of immortal  powers,
arcs of imminent death,
Making love with pearls and gems,
Eyes like twinkling stars,
I plucked all other flowers;
Except for black, the color of death;
The deep color of the black coffin;
Attack in sudden pain;
Arousing charm  for those heavenly bodies,
Tempted by the odorless scent of spirits.
