OF NATURED THOUGHTS: A HAIKU QUARTET
Chasing your shadow,
is running lost in the wind;
give this fruitful thought:-
Do not run in vain;
climb the vine of God’s guidance,
and wisely move on:-
Take a thoughtful break,
and grow in bright awareness:
we reap what we sow:-
Sowing seeds of faith,
we reap wisdom and guidance;
blooming in God’s winds:-

TO A WELL-NATURED POET
For some, old time wanes;
May yours continue to wax–
Those waiting need you:-
Keep sowing the word;
Let shared guidance be reaped–
Your wisdom flowing:-
You have been chosen;
Don’t fear the chosen blessing–
Let the word be reaped:-
Keep the vibe vining…
Let it flow every day…
Your cistern pouring…
From God’s given well,
Keep bucketing its waters;
Splashing waiting minds:-

Good Natured Joe
This poem may have some lampoonery
Because the character has a bit of buffoon-ary
A lanky jokester who loves to play
With mirth and joy you see right away
His honest guffaws gives me a chuckle
He is not a brute; never raises a knuckle
He pulls a few tricks, but none of them are mean
A good-natured Joe, sense of humor

Catty Natured
You know how a cat is? The way it awakes,
how its eyes open, for a moment
not seeing anything,
how it blinks slowly
eyelids washing a mind
of anything but satisfaction.
Legs stiffen, stretching out,
paws opening and closing
as it arches its back.
Lithe sinews ripple under a velvet pelt,
its whole body a rubber band of pleasure.
I used to wake like that

Natured By
The swelling and sailing moon,
reflection mirrored in still water opportune.
That transfiguring element of rising lunatic,
by heaven’s circuit of stars so quick.
Gentle light beyond all comprehension,
sacred dwelling in celestial ascension.
Gathered gentle hues in playful gaze,
more faint stars appear in this haze.
The muse of deep feelings curates this stream,
provoking that fondly image seem.
Endeavors from the echo

The New Girl a Work
The new Girl at Work (The Coward Speaks)
Should I feel a shamed?
I want to kiss the new girl at work
but I don't know her name.
Her understated beauty
is the first page of a book
I can't put down.
Man... just learning her name
will be my favorite sound.
She's the one I want, and need.
The treasure

Natured Freed
Love,
hate,
extremes.
Love, natural.
Hate, is wrong,
dislike a possibility,
in a time, when all life is equal, not you and me.
Us, all together, love for each other, ere gender, total harmony, nature freed.

Unique Natured
Unique but vibrant, a lady of belief
A lady of nature who would feel for a thief
Mysterious to society but a lady of love
A lady of children raised from above

Plastic Natured Bubbleworlds...
This morass of a quagmire beleagured unfaithful
bestowment of gifts so easily annulled,
confined spaces of opinionated biased
blown out of proportion like bubbles of miasma...
Wedge issues continue to split like firewood
high temperature attitudes inducing the mood,
court jesters and sophisticated jugglers
cutting deep for the main artery jugular...
Inflamming the masses like tall wild grasses
only to burn'em as out of
