Drawing : Princess Zebra   click to enlarge	Love’s Heart Black panther’s fur! A fish glints in the mud. The cactus now is longing for one orange bud. The velvet paw scoops up the amber scales. And love yet breathes, though aspiration fails. Green crocodile! A bird squawks through the day. The blue sea metamorphoses to palest grey. The jagged teeth close on the feathered neck. And my love lingers on the burning deck. Red porcupine! A beast shrieks in the night. A mauve cloud dreams of turning purest white. Small silvered wings are folded on the unmade bed. And my love’s heart is wandering with the dead. © Alisha Sufit
Rooted Tree I can no more change the course of time than can a tree move from its yard of earth, though my leaves are racing in the dulcet wind, though speedwell blooms all about my girth. You sat beneath the shade, you tasted fruit upon the bough. Then you were off and made your way to another land. Where are you now? I shall not weep - my tears have all run dry. My heart is like an empty husk, though I still keep a flower of hope that someday you will come again. The flaming sky at dusk has turned to indigo too soon, and I am rooted here beneath the shining circle of the rising moon. © Alisha Sufit	Drawing : Normandy Beach   click to enlarge
