Wonder how it fares if left alone,
Will it bear on its own merits
Or juxtapose by meddling hands,
Meantime, sun-dries it again,

POETRY AND PAINTING
Painting is a placid lake upon which poetry is reflected in silence
while
Poetry is a tumultuous sea that makes painting roar!

Lonely Leaf in the Water
I watched it fall
In spiralling flight
This browned yellow leaf

For not long ago
It was alive and so green
In a canopy of cover
Above the stream

aglow in the light
of moonbeams
flickering

beneath clouds

step out of shadows
and let yourself
be known

NIGHT DHMagical moonbeams
Sparkling like silver
On an inky sea
I watch them dancing
Captivatingly
Bright mystic moon
Shining each night
Waxes and wanes
Controlling tides
Silver orb
Shines above
constantly
I love
A clear
Night
