Bits and Pieces

August moon leaps
Over plumeria boughs;
A lover waits

~~~~~~~~~


Jasmine in your hair
Scented portraits here;
Moonlit tryst 

~~~~~~~~~


Night bird serenade
Sleepy lullaby;
Frangipani shroud

~~~~~~~~~


Dark is the night
Solemn persuasion;
Stars come out to play

~~~~~~~~~


Window curtains
Veils sure surprise;
Inner fires surge

~~~~~~~~~


Blooming flowers
Garden sculptures here;
Wooden bench empty

~~~~~~~~~


East Coast Park
Voices in the dark;
Distant lights spark

~~~~~~~~~


Deeper than deep
This troubled sleep;
Sad stories creep

~~~~~~~~~


Lost in the crowd
I look for you;
Desolation road

~~~~~~~~~


Bits and pieces
Leftover food;
Grace before meal

~~~~~~~~~


Joy comes
Sorrow leaves;
Dawn sparkles 

~~~~~~~~~


Night frowns
Darkness hides;
Dusk feels alone

~~~~~~~~~
