A Moment To Freeze (Haiku)





Silently beaming
The rays of sun sparkle down--
Blissful tears fall

A Love Lullaby (Tanka)


Slumber softly love,
Rest your sorrow in my heart,
Breathe gently in sleep.
Gaze in your soul forever
And sleep in my arms tonight.

A Charming Bug’s Plight (Haiku)


A ladybird flies
And blesses me with delight
On this vivid day.

She flies but not far,
A bump into a leaf stalls
This perfect moment.

Red and black wing hues
Blend as she flutters in haste.
I wish she departs.

For once she lets up
And walks on a leaf’s stalk,
Finally she stops.

I grab hold of her,
On my dry palm she marches,
Itchy stings she leaves.

Her little wings flap
All in vain as she falls down
What a sorry sight!

In a woody nick
She now hides like a shy child,
Inside she kips from me.

At last she comes out
And I smile as she budges out.
Yes, shes the day’s star.

Swiftly, the wind blows
And she dashes in circles
Before it all stops.

Again and again
She plummets like heavy hail,
Now she flies away.

Falling Leaves (Haiku)


Leaves of an oak tree - -
Fall,painting the earth auburn.
Steadily they fall.

Endless Hope


If I should take my life
Through this great strife,
I’ll pray for my wife
That God should keep her safe.

If I should die in my sleep
I hope you won’t weep,
Let your emotions sweep
Through like a fall into the deep
Where I lay in my mortal sleep.

If the moon doesn’t shine,
Don’t worry for you are still mine,
Together we taste like sweet wine
Whenever we dine
In this fine night’s divine vine.


If last night’s kiss was the last,
Know that in me the lust
We share will always come first,
I’ll be that knight who clinches his fist
When they come to scrap your heart’s crust,
Then we’ll feast.

If the sun is out and I’m not home
Be strong, tomorrow I’ll come
Like the rain to tame this mortal storm,
But tomorrow can only be told by time
So I ask you to melt this rime.

If my heart stops beating tonight
Teach me how to fight
And make me right.
Bring to me your light,
I ask for you to hold me tight.

Drizzles In Sunshine


Golden syrup from the
Heavens trickle yet again.
Like tears they plummet
Soaking earth with life,
A tender aroma of sand
Arises to kiss
Summer a long goodbye.

A green scenery is born on the
Hands of the russet woods,
Pierced with yellow sunbeams
They spring up like ant hills
Ready to store a month’s harvest.

Shaky leaves sing the praises
Of joy as the down pour rests its
Tears on their arid sheath.
Are they the tears of
A joyful angel?

They fall with a soothing
Gentle feel…
Touching the olive leaves
And everything within
Its fine reach.

Innate Therapy (Haiku)


Olive leaves so pure
They must be a cure - -
For this cancer.

Flawless chilly air
Rises to thaw this sickness - -
Healing breathes thrill me.

A pounce of splendor
Surprises with emotions,
I soak in this treat.
