... 
(My inspiration is number 3, the Snowman winter scene.)


I love snow falling, watching it blow and swirl in drifts, 
like a dance- snowflakes prance...

Nighthawk

...A sliver of October moon
sinks slow into the western night
and the life of a billion stars
begin to fade beyond my sight

The black curtain of night dissolves
as colors flare the eastern sky
T...

The Wee Hours

...It's the wee hours of the morning,
And the rain is drizzling down.
It makes the air all fresh and clean,
As I walk the streets of town.

Although July is ending,
It's damp and cold tonight,
An...

Soothing Stress

...With the chalk, 
Teachers' hearts knock
Students flock;
Goats, we overstock
And sheep, we unlock! 

With our talks, 
Teachers' mouths stalk
Lazy students' works, 
Discipline the ones that ba...

Night Magic

...They say when the moon rides high and bright,
And casts it's silver glow,
On fields and meadows, woods and streams,
And village streets below,

It's good advice to stay inside,
Not venture far ...

-nighthawk:

...The nighthawk that's afraid of the dark
Stays up to protect his heart 
With a mind wired by the creative 
That won’t cease until he finishes his piece 
He draws to put himself at ease 
To give h...

Old Nails

...OLD NAILS
Quazi Johirul Islam

I have been trying to remove old nails
From my feet, from my palms, for many years
Jordan full to the brim of my pure tears
Pain spread all over with the great de...

Yellow

...Yellow leaps, flipping, dashes wild,
Then spins and flits.
Plays twister and racket ball.

Yellow is camping late August.

Feels like pudding skin.
Smells Gray Poupon and makes me grin.

Dyi...

Old Crow

...Old Crow

Old crow
Tired and lazy' against the day
Dark skies
Lost in blacks and whites and grays
Howling north wind
Sure takes a man's fight away

Wastelands,
A dreamer's home on his best ...

Nocturnal

...notice the natural
                       nocturnal of the night-
           never has the naked
           nighthawk nested as neat-
                          neglected by dark, he
        ...

The Sacred Totum

...Hear the screeching of the Nighthawk, as its talons grapple
At the tail ends of the moon's rising, dragging it ever upwards, unto
The center of the blackened shroud, of the universe.
This celestia...

The Maiden and the Hunter

...Upon the jagged rock,
Where cloven hooves did trot.
A maiden clothed in dock,
Thought life was meant for naught.

Adorned in nature's frock,
Awaiting wind's onslaught.
Ticktock, ticktock, the ...

" Fer Those Pickers "

...'Twas a cold cold day o'tune,
Fer those pickers down in Boone.
Fiddles brought so had they'd ought,
Newest feathers just store bought,
'Twas a cold cold day a'tune.

Fer those pickers down in B...

Hawk Eyed

...The nighthawk sails tonight;
Encompassing a silent world
Caught is, his prey in the wink of an eye

Spinning and diving in swirls
Across the midnight skies
While he holds court with the fancied...

I'D Walk the Naked Miles

...What twist of fate has befallen us?
When nighthawks no longer soar by day --
Ritualistic measures of time usurps moonlight
 
Where then shall I see upon my love’s face ~
A smile that would light...
