A Poet's Cry
When farthest fields of tall
           grasses are dry and harshly mown. 
Then, wildflowers to the wind fall
           where beauty had once shown.
Wren and robin in...

When the River Runs Dry
When the river runs dry


When the river runs dry, tears of sorrow fill this poets eyes
The words just won't flow, as the blank page clearly shows

All life dries up as ideas and thoughts they get torn in two
All around us can see it and sense...

a poetic heart ~
isolated and unique
as a Baikal Dzen

BAIKAL DZEN/ZEN
The rings are caused by warm, circular currents of water under the ice, called eddies. The eddies' strong currents melt the ice at the edge, but weaker ones keep the centre frozen.

Thoreau When He Went Wooding
Apples red, apples round.

Apples frozen on the ground.

Yellow-mellow apples,

many speckled, bruised and brown.

Henry ate them

when he went wooding.

Said they tasted like apple pudding....

Premium Member I Wandered Lonely As An Autumn Leaf
" I wandered lonely as a cloud "
                    ~William Wordsworth ~

Shook away by solemn persuasive wind,
I felt as though fallen from my splendor;
Leaves of red, yellow,...

Twin Snow Pillars
He watches and wait,
the prey unaware of his gaze
But he hungers no longer for flesh
He chases after the spirit of the wind ...
White Wolf in the snow blend,
and alongside him is D. White his friend
	   White by White,
     ...

Why should I add another word
To words already spoke and heard.
Because to say, "The morning web was hung with light."
Is not to say,
"A spider gathered jewels today."...

The Quality of Mercy.
A mouse doesn't ask for mercy from a cat. It can't meow the syllables.
Though its stomach is full, the cat,being unacqainted with mercy, 
will toy with a mouse. 
Does the tiny heart that beats to bursting point, feel eternity?.... while pinned to...

Water, Water
‘Water’ seems a fitting title
of this rhyme on something vital
for the beings we take care of
and the others we’re aware of.
 
Life on Earth depends on water,
whether human or sea otter,
fish or fowl, whatever creatures
having some subsistence features.

Water may have been existent
in archaic ages distant
long...

Silver Hue
I've tried the moon titled in air 
Above a hazy tree-and-farmhouse cluster 
As you might try a jewel in your hair 
She sat quietly deaf to the river
Shadows line along the old rocking chair
Rippling chords and running deep 
Hidden in the darkness and shiver 
Fiddling...

Spring has her warm ways...

Roseate Dew
Old-fashioned beauty kissed by morning dew,
In summer-rain her dreams reflect the sun,
And poets ponder magic she can do,
As worldly things the mind must surely shun,
Her thorns shall fight the heart that isn’t true,
Yet bring her tender kiss to love begun,
To poets gazing on her blooming...

Raindrops falling on windowpane
     cloudy grey sky with lightning vein
Upon close look, a lilac hue
     and tiny pockets found of blue
Rainy days tempt poets to write
     of roses in bloom, stars at night;...

The Freedom of the Pen
poetic licence... the freedom of the pen...
to transcribe what... where... why and when...
dancing daffodils in tune with spring...
tiny bluebells... o we could hear them ring...

spring or summer dawn... or be it eve...
the joy of both can oft stress relieve...
springtime the summertimes overture...
ripening life... by fall...
