79
I welcomed
You in
But don’t
Play me
For greed
Because
I’m just
An old
Lost soul
Making 
Love
To pen
And page
In verse
and poetry...

Like an almighty cauldron, 
Curling and twirling, 
Stirred by the sea, 
It came bashing, 
As a torrential torrent 
Pounding endlessly....

Everything in harmony

flux is
stasis is not.
where flux is the only stasis,
then even flux is not.
something tells me
(i don't know what)
that i am speaking through my hat.

Haiku 79
	
	
	your fingers make
	music from the instrument
	that is me
	
	
	
	
This may be a senryu, given it's human rather than nature content. Are there any opinions on the matter?...

The world is so divided from hatred and fear
And it doesn’t look like there is any end in sight.
But we can change all of that if we want to stay here.
All we have to do is look inside and do what’s right....

                Sun up in the sky
                The longest day of the year
                Looking in for growth
                Sitting and manifesting
                Welcome to Summer Solstice...

is that
      a heartbeat?
will
   this romance
                 last..I wonder
what makes
my
love
     for you
                overflow?
never
never
       let go

inspred by Debussy Au Clair du lune...

so exciting
my 
thoughts
    are
         racing
                 ahead

     dances
       with deligh
anticipation
        heightens
with
fulfilment...
     
inspired by Brahms op 79 clip...

Haiku #12, 079-12,080...............................................Free Will

One man tend zillions
images my heart can't fend
Flesh, bones, pure ashes

One ill demagogue
Demented beyond compare
Ran himself to hell.

Stool Stopped and Lost Cool

Someone had really lost their cool;
When she stopped having a stool;
If you do,
It is true,
Not in a swimming pool or vestibule.

Jim Horn

5,555 - 4,476 = 79

until I reach goal.
Will be 77 on June 26th....

Quatrain #79:
PLAY


Passion knows best the way of flow,
Light styles the quest as form now shows;
Aplomb sparks fest where grace informs,
Yes works the jest that helps you glow.

pick flowers
drink while nectar flows.
sap is bitter
when stem hardens into wood.

the bumblebee sees not the world
with the petals that surround.

the hive hums with discordant sounds
and empty clamorings.

tomorrow's season is fall.

and it came to pass
that the cat stopped chasing foxes
on moonlit tin roofs
for it had dawned upon him
that it was not in the order of things.

and so he prowls in cool shadows,
stalking imaginary butterflies.

for now the cat is content

Ash still gray,
The green hasn't encroached much yet
Upon the blackened hill,
But then 'twas only August last
And now 'tis only Spring.

Then waiting shall the game be called
Until the Summers' Find
Watching for the time to come
And see the hillside mind....

The one who wanted to stay
is now chided by Brother
as the one who got away
followed his Wife to England in 60
and revisited in 79
absence so dearly noted
replete the years
saint not sinner
who rode the years
not persecuting by choice
because missing South Africa is inconsolable...

were that i could speak again
the thoughts frozen in my head
the sun rarely burns me now
and the moon a haughty stranger
lifting its one eyebrow at me.

i stir uneasy in the concrete bowels
where skitters my fears
in halloween masks.

i think i'll yowl with the cats
on the roofdeck
