Best Fragment Poems

You wrapped me in your wings
As together we lay
Seven days in heaven
Before you flew away

I regret that moment
When first I saw your smile
I longed for forever
You only stayed a while

I'm left with no answers
You left me before dawn
Me the ugly duckling
Dreaming you were my swan

Yet...

'Fragment of the soul'

A mighty unpleasant zephyr,
Slivered my soul into 
fragments,
And blew away my most 
valuable fraction.

Macrocosm became his 
hostelery,
Having gained altruistic 
radiance,
His silence became my 
tribulation.

Snookered by lot of malarkey,
Hoveled in dismay and haggling 
for aquittance,
I died a silent death every 
moment.

Now that time...

Just a fragment of forever
Inseminated in your look,
Like a softly spoken picture
In a golden scripture book,
Where the pages of remembrance
Have been written with my pen,
Though I know it changes nothing
I still gently say Amen.


Just a pause between existence
 And the dreams that still return,
Of every...

There was scent of a fire in the call of the wind
from a few blocks away, I could smell it today...
someone burning a pile, in this first day of fall 

Leaves and debris, with smoke on the bend
It darkened the sky of the September light
with...

Far away from your precious moor,
     I feel your thoughts call for my soul
and unclose me to heaven's door!
     Can thoughts like yours divinely toll,
beguiling me onto your shore
     like a god that...

Splashing, thrashing, wildly crashing
     rages the rolling sea 
like a half-tortured serpent swirled 
     in waves of misery!

Through this tempest and angry night,
     a vessel from afar
sails by the dim, faint, speckled glow...

“Each experience is locked within my heart and only I hold the key..."
A tiny bird trapped and longing to be free
To fly amongst those vibrant clouds
To finally shun away from dark deep doubts...
Of not being there, of being so far away
In those last days that...

(for George Ehusani)

When minority
Threatens majority;
Self-solidarity
Divorces reality,
These in a community
Depict dilapidation of the society
And decadence of integrity
Of humanity
In every country!...

Staring in disbelief
Heart thumping
Pulse racing
Trying to speak
But unable to make a sound
Wondering if I am dreaming
It cannot be reality…
…Surely
Why me?
Why not me?
 No, there must be some mistake
I recall my past
Happiness and heartbreak
Life will never be the same again
I find my voice and shout:
‘YES!’

*I got...

And maybe

I was just the sunset you ran to 

When he wasn't around...

(Dedication: In Memorium, Jane Reichhold, haiku poet)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


Once upon then
Only men wrote haiku;
Jane broke trends when?

~~~~~~~~~


Eulogy lines
Fate oversees;
Suicide note

~~~~~~~~~


Death by choice
Broken by water;
Drowning excavation

Famous haiku poet
Pain drowns life;
Fibromyalgia

~~~~~~~~~


So much reason
Drowns ripe season;
Decay instructs

~~~~~~~~~


Pain gathers more
More than enough;
Death cascades store

~~~~~~~~~


Words feel strange
Strange pain reflex;
A drowning dance

~~~~~~~~~


Sad feels...

Things will be great in two weeks
Foretold, ordained, and promised by my Gaia's wisdom.
With this ring, I her wed
Betrothed, bewitched, smitten and bitten
I plaintively appeal
And foreswearing poor science I lean on intuition's incalculable import
And offer this corpus indelecti as a sacrifice
On the altar of her...

No word can tell, no pen can describe the
beauty of my one true love, 
Finist the Falcon....

Inside my bosom
where heart be kept
I confound you there
with all my care.

I etched your name
in the white page of my mind.
You floats in
Heart-beat,
my heart's-blood
And your smile is the key
to open the courtyard of my heart.

The love of oxygen with air
fish and water
As the moss love

An Independence Day
memory fragment -
my husband and I along with
our daughter and her small family
have just set up our lawn chairs
and blankets for the little ones
along the crowded avenue 
from which we’ll view the parade.
As the big event gets underway,
we realize to our dismay
the sun...
