DV II

This is one of a series of “Divine Villanelles” that I will continue to write & hopefully publish in a book.
I thought about sharing some with you here on my blog.
I hope they reach out to you out there.
Thanks for reading & support always!


One day I know I will return to dust.
Then, gently turn to be “The Other” once again,
To set me deep in divine Love & Trust…

Impassioned I, from youth in abject lust,
For fame, for vile, for rapturing worldly gain,
Though, deep I know I will return to dust…

I fear losing what I have earned in gust,
Yet all losing as earning is: fleetingly mundane,
Each sets us deep in divine Love & Trust…

I sate this dream; That permanence’s a must,
Yet all my dawn’s boon is my dusk’s bane,
& that all, one day, will return to dust…

I, the forerunner of the pious & unjust,
I am the source of all the droughts & rain,
That have me set in divine Love & Trust…

I linger, strolling this oneiric crust,
& warmly welcome selves so deeply lain,
For deeply know I; have returned to dust,
Now, I set all; In divine Love & Trust…

B.S., June 2023
