Chain Haiku - Star Dust

meet mom past the Wall
Tristan uses a candle
crash landing a star

trip of love unfolds
meeting witches kings pirates
To dust far above

Premium Member Crash Landing Love

On my first day in a car factory
A simple girl threw herself at me
I guess I was standing
Too close to the landing
Of the car filled with crash test dummies

Premium Member This Old Fence

How in the world is this fence still standing
Taking punches from winds so demanding
With a defiant grin
It refused to give in
Till my dog sent it down in a crash landing

Parachutes

Something soft to give
Recoil/repulse
Parachutes
Are for girls
Draped in billowing clouds 
Of silk linen and lace 
I am a storm
Wrapped in black hide
Hides me
Easy to brush off 
After a crash landing

Premium Member Sparrows

newly born sparrows 
oval blue broken eggshells~ 
feathered brown and white   

ready for take-off 
mother watching from treetop~ 
first flight- crash landing

second flight better 
siblings curiously watch~ 
empty- is the nest

Premium Member Crash Landing

Four hours now we'd been in the air
And soon we would come in to land
Then over the tannoy 
The captain calmly said
"Landing gears stuck the wheels won't drop 
Brace yourselves for a crash landing*.

Honey Bee

I see you honey bee 
on humming erratic flight 

on route to the garden bed 
crash-landing on petals bright 

burying head first into a flower 
tumbling in the pollen white 

vibrating noisily with purpose  
then launching out with pollen tight 

weighed down with your sweet cargo 
buzzing loudly in delight

Premium Member Wind Flaunts Fury

day’s light quickly fades rumbles from mighty jaws near bitter winds utter their last gasp my arms are in a flurry bare branches lash against the farmhouse struggling to avoid the chimney’s embers “Snap,” the sound rings out pain I bear as I split in two crash-landing on the horse barn sunrise comes again displaying carnage below nearly lifeless, my tears fall like rain

Burn Your Memory Down

Lost in a dark vaporous pit
Suffocating in the fumes of you
After you went up in flame
I tried to extinguish you for good
Still you hang around 
Like a broken parachute
Trapped on a tree limb
What does it matter
We won't be taking off 
Or crash-landing ever again
In the vast and vacuous
Space which is your soul
I have been too many times
I'm climbing out now
I think I've seen the light

Premium Member Coming Down to Earth Grounded

Listen to poem:
I see a clearing
It's big enough to land in
The grass is short
No rocks or bumps
It's all clear for landing

My heart beats in panic
Tears of sweat run down my face
Fear grips my body
In expectant embrace

The engine splutters and coughs
Bangs erupt from broken wings
I hear my own screams

The smoke is acrid in flared nostrils
My flesh burning, stinks

Ah! I savour a touchdown, touche!

Premium Member A Nation Divided

I see trouble on the near horizon-- A nation divided just is not couth, Unfortunately, reason is wizen Frivolous theories accepted as truth, Intentionally misguiding our youth Disgraceful political grandstanding, Foundation institutions crash-landing News media is shaping opinions, Honestly, journalism notwithstanding Common folks now political minions.

Predetor

High above clouds
You flew
Radar focusing beneath
In search of prey.

Image fell on screen
One walking in  haste
His head bowed down
Wondering at
Mismatching arithmetic
At home, office
Breaking his back
To meet ends both
Nebulous mind.

Flare in your eyes
Like a diving bird
Impertinent crash landing
Sharp claws clung
An ascension with prey
Into unreachable heights
Vanishing into thin blue.

A quill is shed
Life drops dead.
