In a dance of ink on parchment, I weave threads of antiquity's lyrical charm, an ode to the ancient symphony of verse and rhythm. With quill poised, I venture to marry the essence of classical poetry, its sonnets and epics, with the vibrant palette of today's poetic yearnings. In each stanza, I summon the spirit of bygone eras, invoking the cadence of troubadours, the echoes of bardic ballads, and the eloquence of ancient odes. Yet, amidst these echoes, I strive to sculpt verses that resonate with the pulse of our modern age. My lines breathe life into timeless themes, painting portraits of love's yearning, nature's solace, and humanity's intricate tapestry. Enshrined within structured forms and metered beats lie narratives that transcend temporal confines, touching the hearts of contemporary souls. I reimagine ancient allegories with a modern hue, infusing traditional elegance with the raw emotions of today's world. It's a delicate waltz between tradition and innovation, crafting verses that honor the heritage of poetic legacies while embracing the evolving landscapes of expression. With each poem penned, I aspire to bridge the chasm between epochs, forging a literary bridge where the echoes of antiquity serenade the modern ear, and where the essence of ancient poetic styles entwines with the yearnings of present-day hearts.

Voyage

Captain of my own ship in the ocean of life,
I’ll never rush the voyage,
I am a master of time.
My focus is sharper than the edge of a knife,
My vision impervious to the darkness of night.

Both hands on the helm, I am in full...
