Silence

Epigram #55:   

SILENCE


Silence wears a voice
Stillness frames a poise
Calmness primes a choice

We as the subject
Look at a beautiful object
Or a person
Without analytical tension

As subject & object merge
We feel a bliss surge

Treasure

a glint of sapphire eyes
	behind a veil …
the tulle has yellowed,
	gems sparkle still.

At Number 55

Numbers change, 
years fly by. 
I observe internal changes 
with curiosity, 
pleasure and interest,
with less interest,
no pleasure in external ones 
well, here it is
I'm moving on...

Night Sojourn

My nightmare, 
They close in on me,
Out of the dark,
They move like tendrils,
The scream,
I'm haloed by lights.

Proverbial Thought

When fortune frowns 
we come to know
what problems life can cause.
With troubles found
we sometimes grow
aware of our own flaws.

Leadfoot

likes to drive very fast
looks at signs that say "Speed
Limit 55," just
laughs, pushes that pedal 
lacks proper fear of blue
lights, sirens, and tickets
loves to whiz past slowpokes

- Haiku X 55 - You Make My Day -

My wish for the day
Lips that share the love so sweet
Wonderful feelings

Come little closer
Although it's raining outside
You make the world bright

Better

It's better to have a rusty tame copper 
that you can always call your own 
than a wild shiny silver 
that you can't have till light of dawn.

Untitled #55 / the Upstairs Hallway

I stand in the upstairs hallway, hearing
sparks of conversation between my two parents,
my eyes locked upon a distant orange light
that grows in strength as the sun fades.
Our house is a cavern, four souls separate
yet I feel too close.

Haiku 55

hot summer day
down the beach
seagulls dive
~~~~~~~~~~~
morning sunlight
through forest canopy
shadows dance
~~~~~~~~~~~
full blue moon
across the misty bay
foghorn blows
~~~~~~~~~~~
hot dry wind
across the desert sands
coyote howls

In Shadows

He spent long dull days
rigid like the straight back chair
where he sat making his plans.
He dreamed in shadows
and his plans - like the old chair -
never saw the light of day.
