Nature

A love for Nature’s never unrequited.
Into Earth’s spreading arms, we’re all invited.
To each of us, the sunset’s kiss, she blows;
for all the golden bloom of sunrise grows;

Warm today
Has spring
finally sprung?

'Please, make me beautiful,' she said.

Silver April raindrops shower;
over everything they pour;
touching all with Midas power;
polishing the whole world’s floor;
transforming the grey and grimmer

A cat pounces on a mouse
its squeal -- an act of surrender

“Dark rainbow bliss in the sea”

As all things in the cycle of nature, we awake to embrace the sun, and then we wilt as her rays fade away.

Fragility is;
the smash of a glass,
a fallen vase,
the collision of two cars,
erosion of an elders mind,
the effect of water on stone,
the toil of the strings of a guitar.
No.

musings

on grief

Ikebana (Japanese flower arranging, Whiskas commercial)

I think the wonder of life passes by too many people...

A bumble bee busies

Long beaked sea-birds seek out
little morsels on the shore.
Anything they eke out
is a thing they’re thankful for.

Eagerly sanderlings scurry
as the waves retreat;

Satin shapes sway inside her dress...

Distant voices are blurred;
noises instead of words;
arguments become storms;
gentle laughter like birds;
angry mobs bray and roar;
crowds are waves on the shore
but though you hear far less

The piercing of the wind
Iced like the mountain peaks

Even spiders have feelings
