Aftermath: Part-IIIFamilies searching for their loved ones
After the mud has settled to the ground
And water is flowing at a normal pace
But all that left are the little memories
In forms of clothing, pearls or
In their decayed form as a skeleton...

Aftermath: Part-IIThey all witnessed the horror with their eyes
While this poet was horrified from what I saw on TV
Families stuck between the flood water, holding each other close
Gets thrown off from the height like a rock falling from waterfall
How can that fool sleep at night after watching this?
Just a little message from him into local newspaper
And...

Aftermath: Part-Ithe town that once sat in the foothills
one night felt the terror of nature
someone was dancing with their lover
while someone was having dinner
and someone was playing with their kids
it all came down like the ruins of an empire
the rocks started to destroy the homes
then the water that followed swept away everything...

Dewfresh MornRocio, a girl’s name,
“dew” in Spanish,
evokes a bead, aflame:
first sun on grass.
It always seems a shame –
joy must vanish.
Nothing can stay the same:
all things must pass.

The Life of an AdventurerA thousand ships through the dark nights sail,
to mysterious lands and adventurous trails.
With a thirst for life, I cannot rest,
when one is finished, there comes another quest.
I travel many paths into the unknown,
with each path completed, I know I’ve grown.
Though dangers lurk at most every turn,
I sense I’m protected; I have no concern.
I try new...

Interlude
“In the fall, I believe again in poetry...”
— Jaakko A. Ahokas
When September comes through heated breezes,
sunflowers watch droll dragonflies duet
to tunes of melodic taunts and teases
of Autumn's promise to pay Summer's debt.
A bright season greets us without regret.
Behind is buried under yesterday
and tomorrow is waiting for its say.
Joyful is this moment in Nature's arms
when time...

Breed ViatorEco-anxiety over the big cats,
I am in fear of an empty space.
Sitting on top of the food chain
in their absence balance is off.
Every day they slowly decline,
eco-anxiety over the big cats.
Panic is no longer dwindling,
increasing as numbers shrink.
The racing pulse of a lush forest
every creature is a part of it.
Eco-anxiety...

Ophidiophobia
Ophid air of misconception
Polarizing those of superstition
Hideous to some and
Indescribably beautiful to many
Devoid of human soul
Involved in man’s downfall
Only to be cursed as
Pretense of innocence
Holding unfounded fear
Of snakes who serve
Behind our sight with
Intense appearance and
Always omnipresent...

KomorebiIn the hush of dawn, I walk alone,
with sleepy steps and thoughts half-grown.
The trees, they stretch in silent grace,
as sunbeams paint the morning’s face.
The birds begin their tender song,
and somehow, I just hum along.
Each leaf it sways, each breeze, it stays,
like God walks with me here today.
My shoes find joy in fallen leaves,
a crunch...

Sunshine Invasionred heart of morning
guilty shadows fled like dreams
scattering moonbeams
Blue jay on green rose
caressed by gold creeping heat
petals and concrete
saffron veiled dancers
of every scent and color
city sun culture
pearly paths faded
plum day's grown a bit older
sunshine's grown bolder

Idyllic
Rural scenes and views from the countryside
warm my heart as I watch the hills and tide.
Green pastures, bubbling brooks, blooming meadows
blend with elegant sunflower and rose.
Quaint cottages underneath the clear blue skies
delight my mind and charm my sparkling eyes.
The shepherds with their flocks echo their voice
far from the complex urban, modern noise.
This place features lush...

Bacon in cast iron skillet,

“Coming”, the crackling bacon got me!
