Winter's Night Transparency -Crystalline Waka


breathe air breathless 
mirror, I'm cold for you
our whisper crystallizes in
outside white; so my dark
warmed frosty wet

Aurora rides 
in golden chariot
coming down to the sleepy world.
the music of her tread~
a wake up call.

Highly ordered
repeating arrangement
of delicate interweavings
tying us together
like fire and ice.


Waka of Love

Borealis
  
   Dazzles in hued roulette --
             Tinsels gushing in full glory

  Then,  like cosmic whirlind
           ...She fades gently

Waka Waka

Black clouds writhe, winter dancing Waka Waka
tumultuous River flows where rainbow trout jump
far in distance she waved with our babe
now both are gone with orange Spring daisies 
my legs become logs in this turmoil of liquid 
                                  Remembrance ~

Remembrance ~
let legs do the walking across the dried up River
where orange Spring daisies bloom nevertheless 
women with babes walk slowly along its banks searching for buried Love letters
primitive trout have laid down their backbones
Waka Waka is unnecessary ~ the war is no more

Wars continue across the planet unabated 
human spines under bushes or frying eggs
Love still rules the roost at varying depths
babes are both fat and starving 
daisies but for one day orange and white
Rivers run torrents of tears at Spring
he watches rugby team doing a Waka Waka
                              
                                       Remembrance ~
woven into nervous networks with dances

Collected fragment crafts 
Necklaces, rings, and lucky charms 
Mollusks, scallops, and clams

a ray intrudes
like a piercing needle
through the stretched blue denim fabric
With a fancy thread work
a new dawn launched

Snowflakes falling
like sparkling crystal glass,
translucent, each perfectly clear.
Snow  w h i r l i n g  me_   into
crystalline ice !

Premium Member Aurora WAKA

Aurora will
dance with me in the dark 
of a clear night sky, a twirling
iridescent beauty
destined to leave.

Aurora Waka

cold aurora
I stand beneath silence
it moves without knowing my name
its burning absence there
like desertion

crystal glass glints
lucent menagerie 
light glowing from the inside out
enchanting craft work gleams ~
lost unicorn

Premium Member Aurora waka

She, Aurora;
my dawn’s awakening
I shadow in her radiance;
everlasting will, past
her light burns out.

Premium Member Chrystaline - WAKA

Mystic dancer 
She glistens like diamonds
Fragile as a falling snowflake
Fluid as waterfalls
A Geisha's strength
