Bamboo Reeds

The bamboo reeds away in the
elusive wind,

as the sun rolls down on the country side,

The townspeople look on with pride.

The Bamboo Butterfly

go deeper still
into the 
aurora sky and
listen to
the dance of
the beige wing 
bamboo butterfly
whisper through
the night

Angels Are True

As I go by the bamboo grass
Its leaves start to sway and rustle
As though the wind were there to pass
From the thrust of guardian angel

ubiquitous summer night
where
bamboo butterflies 
resting 
their

upon

                           shadow displacing shallow

Surrender

The dyed bamboo of Chinese finger traps
Should have taught me everything

To strive is to cut through jungle
To surrender is to know
I am jungle

Inside The Buddas Temple

a
gentle gust of wind
from
the
sacred wings of
the
owl moth
extinguishes the
candlelight flame
with
its
bamboo wings
inside 
the 
Buddhas temple

Premium Member Polished

An uncle unpolished
The polished bamboo strips
He was astonished
When he was admonished
And repolished the polished strips.

Premium Member you are lovely

fuzzy white headed little darling
with black circled eyes and ebony arms
hanging on to the tiniest bit of bamboo
being the cute panda you can be
you are lovely

The dolphins in the sea of Malibu
Love playing game of peek-a-boo
In summer, on the beach
As lazy as sucking leach
Watching fun, we lie on sand as bamboo

Panda eats leaves, shoots and stems of his favorite tree
Surrounded in a forest of bamboo, he is insanely happy
China has everything he needs to be content and excited.

The Book of Songs

bamboo butterflies drifting 
across the Sea of Cortez
with windmill drifting
through fresh eyes
while chanting from
the Book of Songs
underneath the
soprano blue sky
