I’m presenting the intro poem from my poetry collection – Lightning Rhymes ⚡…in a different way
I have had the pleasure to collaborate with Oshin (from the Instagram world), who has created this magnificent calligraphy…Check out her IG handle & her other calligraphy reels @divine__ink
Enjoy the fusion of Poetry, Calligraphy & Music 📜 🖋️🎵
I find it quite meditative to see the fluid flow of Oshin’s calligraphy.
Here’s the picture of my poem

Recently, I had this lovely opportunity to work with my dear friend, Lauren of Lauren M. Hancock Poetry and Prose, to write & record a piece together. Lauren is a poet, painter, violinist and above all, a wonderful, sweet & kind being. Please visit her blog, where you’ll find her heartfelt, soulful, raw poetry, prose & spoken word and her beautiful artwork. My gratitude to Lauren for reaching out to me, to make this happen.
Implore
The breaths I take The steps I sway When I dance on my feet My ground is change
The heights I stare The case is space The light has shades The dark isn’t just pain
I see the sane When I saw the chain I tear the deep When I drop the waves
The colours I blend The Universe I paint The eyes then glare The divine through pen
I expand upon an inner sense of personal justice social soul well meant
I know I know the ability for personal growth
is well rooted deep within, for every passing second my efforts are tirelessly sown,
my chest expands my heart, it flows rich with breath, mighty effort stallion-like strength – continuous insistence, and sound temperament.
our steps in time pirouetting groundwork yours and mine
our knowledge together brought closely in life we stare down the precipice and soar, divine,
unknowingly yet aware we become entwined intent and more this World we explore
for reaching our Universe’s heights sights and sounds enriching our abilities our minds implore.

I am truly honoured to share with you all the first ever real collaboration in my life with none other than the amazing Ace from Fearless Free Soul.

If you see my face I’d smile in the space Would you see the real me? Either way, I’ll be free If you deal with my phase I’d fall in your gaze Would you then be afraid? I’m more than reflection’s shade If you read my phrase I’d still be traveling my maze Would you frame what I feel? I am me, always real If you stitch with colorful threads Wound tight, my love still spreads Would the patterns be revealed? I’ll be courageous, take down my shield If you look in darker clouds I stand apart from the crowds Would you shine the pure energy? I am my own galactic synergy If you sea me dead I still exist, never fled Would I fly in the sky consciously? I’d be at home, honestly If you smell the essence I’d absorb love’s fluorescence Would you inhale the serenity? I’d exhale fear’s identity If you sense with grace I dream the rest of this chase Would you be divine synchronicity? I am infinity’s electricity
