Here is my latest creation. It is a poem converted into a music video on Youtube.
Golden Idol
The glowing sunset greets my eyes
Orange, burning fire does not die
This life enchants me, day and night
Where projects cascade left and right
Within my dreams, they fuel my sleep
Though they dance circles that run deep
And gather hopes like small rewards
To pin upon life’s open doors.
Though now I face the sunset years
Do I throw away all my cares,
And walk along the sun-kissed sand
Watching waves splash upon the land?
These waves sound the call of nature
They beckon, they tease with laughter
Pounding my resistance, no less,
Embracing me like a caress.
I turn back once more to the past
Hoping that my dreams will outlast
The glowing sunset that greets me.
As the waves bury my ego at sea,
I turn my back on the past and go with the flow
Eager to greet the new Me.

PS The poem was written several years ago. I recently adjusted the ending, adding a couple more lines.
