Devotion

Yellow leaves fall Harsh humid heat; Earth gathers debris ~~~~~~~~~ Time runs away Space now bereft; A change of heart ~~~~~~~~~ Empty space Nothing much here; Going away present ~~~~~~~~~ Odd couple here East meets West; Lovely colours ~~~~~~~~~ Old lady sells Daily newspapers; Sidewalk news sermon ~~~~~~~~~ Humid hot day Fiery sun bombards; SPF29 still tans ~~~~~~~~~ Morning crystal ball Mirror exposure; Wrinkles and grey hair ~~~~~~~~~ Earthquake tremors Nepalese tragedy; So many deaths ~~~~~~~~~ Sense deep loss Houses collapsing; Hard times overwhelm ~~~~~~~~~ Tears and pain Sorry affairs; Disaster recovery ~~~~~~~~~ Poise styles Heavy hearts mourn; News highlights tell ~~~~~~~~~ Crimson colours A red sun burns; Rain dilutes blaze ~~~~~~~~~ Young lady walks Brown poodle; Shoes on canine feet ~~~~~~~~~ Just fancy that: Bad reviews *****; Footsteps retreat ~~~~~~~~~ Breezy dandelions Cottony seeds fly; Swirling sensations ~~~~~~~~~ Leon Enriquez 17 May 2015 Singapore
