As False as Smiles

...Manners are the party fancy —
Petit goldleaf on the melting pudding,
A sticking cream now on your fingers, 
Immovable for hours. 
Manners like a lady,
Her morning bonnet pinned,
Perching, tilti...

Spring Rain

...The dark sky stretches across the heights. 
Overcast clouds roam, late at night. 
The round moon does not reveal its rays. 
The snow on the peaks may melt away. 

In the morning, the sparrows fl...

Sounds of Silent Memories

...quiver across limbs
perching mockingbird mimic
a sound that last forever in our memory

The last petal - the last grace

...As the Autumn falls
The jays sing

Vines and creepyar...

The Lonely Scarecrow

...A hat of burlap, worn and frayed,
With buttons for eyes and a smile handmade.
His skin of cloth, stitched and worn,
His bones of wood, splintered and torn.

A shirt of plaid, its colors faded,
...

spooked by a Hoot

...As a child at night, tucked up into bed 

counting sheep would never work for me 

counting only up to three

then drifting from my head 

An imagination Big enough

self-sabotaging dread

The Ship Of Happiness

... The ship of happiness sails 
Intently across indigo skies
Laughter mingled with roaring gales ,
She gleams like an autumn sunrise
Perching near fields of lingering green 
Where often sc...

autumnal colors
close neighboring planet skies
equinox sunsets

red hue leaves tussle
woodchuck pops from its burrow
dog sniff, yelps in pain

quiver across limbs
perching mockingbird's mi...

Some Say September

...Some say April is the cruelest month, leaving
Lilacs upon unmarked graves, grieving
Memories fading and desires, aching
To be filled as the undertaker, undertaking
Daydreams of warmer hands and s...

The Christmas Alligator

...He prowl very still across 
the calm merky waters 
I can see him and he can 
see me with his big yellow 
eyes his pupils are lime 
green slowly he crawls not 
even shooing the cranes 
from off...

Winter is coming to its striking end
Winning crowns for its glorious fulfillment
Lush greenery soon grows its perfect blend
With multi-hues in mesmerizing vent.

While sunrise showers bles...

with know one at all
