...The 
reaper
comes to all.
No heart has he,
for he steals away
not only the old and 
infirm, but also the young,
icily gripping them in their
trepidation when he’s in their sight
...

Wind in the Night

...The night wind was icily cold.
No herons or olive tree warblers flew,
Only hooded black ravens,
preying on the souls of lost men.
More red-pinkish flowers 
dropped from the tree,
leaving the br...

stark confusion had convulsed his wayward soul
when twilight unsettled the horizon’s tearful shadow

Judge Me Gently

...Judge me gently, as I am still a fledgling.
I avoid the pompous, gaudy and bling.
Swiftly simple suffice setting styles.
Abandoning artists amorous aisles.

A Cold Darkness

...The rain seems more angry today
A cold stinging slap in the face
A wake-up call perhaps

It will soon cling
Icily sharp
On the edges
Of a colder wind

Glistening branches
Tinkling

Who Is My Neighbour

...
In this technological age
We don't trust easily
We take our own sweet time to guage
Our neighbors icily

But if we get a friend request
On Facebook, Instagram
We accept it without protes...

Winter Ballad

...The one who controls the wind.
As a cushion for her feet
Drifted the dead dry leaves
Before her on the street,
Playfully lifted 
A lock of her hair,
Caressed her cheek
With tender care,

Fairy Castles

...Snow falling softly o’er the meadow
Banking against the old rail fence,
It creates a magnificent afterglow,
I haven’t seen like it before, or since
This display formed by the recent s...

The Awakening Abyss

...Agape brain, there is a deep abyss, dull and endless.
But, I'm falling, acquiring whatever may be blessedness.
Conversely, there is only a void, and I am doomed.

Seasons Back In Time

...Pale brimstone 
     emerge 
on days windblown
 hover
       flower to flower 
ducking Spring's sudden shower

 Common butterflies so blue
 each season

Sun Shower

...Icily cold the fingertips
of raindrops raise goose bumps
steam rises from the hot tarmac
as rainbow oil streaks spread
a colorful display of pollution
oozes through the crosswalk

Element of Air

...Through quiver of night
setting chill to wintry breeze-
frost and flake drift icily

Acrid is this float -
tapping on windows like knocks
while children pray for sunshine.

Perfect Magus

...Though sapient vision limps short,
And digs no eye into nirvana's fort;
Albeit most vivid dream’s flips stop, 
Instinct excels where iffy triers flop. 

And that sharper divining seer tells
