Chanting SpringSweet snowdrop bells ring!
The violets are coming
Days are chanting spring.
Crimson camelias call
from dreams near the garden wall.
Gold sun fields await
rich tulips of tomorrow!
Lily's never late.
Then pansies' pink faces greet
blue roses across the street.

Muskerry SpringAt Lough Allua, along the waterfront
One observes a turning of the tide
From river stones, which stay blunt
Are nature’s creatures, who needn’t hide
A little toad searches for anew
Commencing a journey made by few
Its passage, grows so weary
Following the gravel track
On its way to Ballingeary
High ditches cloak edges of the roads
Serving to both sides, a useful shield
Tender...

7 B's Of Summer
Spring is sprawling
out there somewhere
in a Bikini on a Beach
drinking Beer
toes in the sand
glass in hand
while snowflakes are falling
and winter's still here
then when good old
sunny summer comes
(and swallows do too)
oh to go Barefoot
in a Boat on the sea
Barbecue in the garden
play Ball in the park
fun in the sun 'til evening twilight
lowers the night a curtain...

Green Dayswarm green days have come
and candy striped rainbow skies
buttercup surprise
bee visits red rose
near the house of gold treasure ~
sweet beyond measure
purple lilies please
through sparkling emerald days
or orange dusk rays
mornings minty fresh
yield to sage evening at last ~
and mauve mist forecast...

Spring FloodLast year the fields were dust and bone,
The rivers whispered in dirt and stone.
The sun stood high, a ruthless king
A crown of fire, heat never-ending.
It saw itself in glory and pride
And looked at the Earth in arrogant snide
“See me, how I’ve grown into a King,
Without me you wouldn’t be anything”
On the ground, far below
The flowers...

To drink you in like a spring of light, in the mystery of the night unfoldingTo drink you in like a spring of light, in the mystery of the night unfolding
Into thousands of silver threads, woven by stars on the sky like a silk canvas.
Your body, a cathedral of desires, beneath my trembling fingers,
Is a map of constellations, where our dreams catch and unite.
Your serene gaze, a crystal lake in...

A Seasonal AffairA frigid spell of arctic air
adorns the tranquil western scene;
a stunning glimpse of fall’s affair
with spring’s vivacious flower queen.
When autumn’s cooling wind combines
with April's warming playful breeze,
a whirling tempest paints designs
on grounds of winter’s icy freeze.
On sculptured hills of milky snows
October's tepid finger strolls,
and May's...

spring turned into fallHeartbreak is rising heat in spring.
Summer welded my heart back together,
Fall leaves reminded me that time has passed so effortlessly.
You’re turning into a faded memory and just another lesson.
My weight, smile, and spirit is back into place.
Soon enough, love returns back to my mind and soul, but never in the form of you again.
I...

Love Can Be Grand - POTD
In spring we come out to see life,
out from our long cold winter's nap.
Bears are so loving not wildlife.
Love can be grand.
I am your big fun bear asap,
you are my fury playful wife,
I love to see you in gift-wrap.
Tonight we need some fun nightlife,
eating fish not from a flytrap,
using my big claws not a knife,
Love...

Rain and Sunwith a touch of rain and sun
the lawn has come to life
spring has brought forth
times of growth and times to mow
a soft breeze whispers to me
there are times to love and times to be alone
there are times to love and times to be alone
and every day I live and die
but a lawn that is cared...

and the urge to make bigger
scars on my body returns....

NowruzThe grass has grown, the garden’s bright—
Nowruz has come, a feast of light.
The demon’s tangled, winter hair
has vanished, melted in the air.
Yes, spring returns with scented breeze,
no more the moan of bitter freeze.
Joy has arrived at every door—
love walks with us, alone no more.
Saqi, pour wine and lift this day,
chase all our noisy cares away.
You,...
