A Petal's Life
The petal falls,
decays,
nutrition for
the next day's flower.
The circle of life
continues,
the same fate
lies in wait....

What Happens When We Die
In death body and soul are separated
The body decays
While soul goes to meet Eternal God
Waits to be reunited with its risen body
On the last day

Chance To Love
love, where old soil
decays among elder trees--
like buds wanting to grow
seasons don't arrive
in lush wakes of affection
--a hardened clay in wintry life...

Adoptive Pain
I wish to fit bereavement
that truly decays you all,
but I am at loss
for never mustering sentences enough
when I had the chance.
But I wish to care for those
who did....

A Healthy Old Hooter
Still got hair, don't need a toupee
Even though my old body decays
Eat lots of tubers

As I near the finale of my life long ballet...

Zen Mode
we’ve observed
that when body ails
bliss yet diminishes not
presence in rapture sails
it is a strange paradox
even as form decays
smiling as we fall
our soul plays...

Idle Mind
Little effort inviting a charley horse
an open wound decays near a sterile gauze
useful waters with plankton
harsh labour for a Briton
no attitude to toil and moil with no cause....

Challenge
Moon’s eyes keenly look and gaze
At the world shrouded in haze;
Reading the threat of decays.
It is now the right moment
Of earth to have the urgent
Need of solving her descent....

Yearning
Simple words,
Footprints
Lead me
Slowly home,
The autumn sun
Surrenders,
Hazy orange,
Stillness sets,
The hum decays
Into silence,
Precious thoughts
Fill the void.
I am yearning
For a change....

Monk mode
neither seeking
nor resisting
aspect unclinging
the current
carries us
form decays
values shift
thoughts recede
we vaporise
yet exist
shape shifting
we become
the mist
all pervading
God’s light...

The Heaven Reaching Trees
The Clouds where once my leaves of white decadence,
Now they are but gone, scattered by the wind.
As the sun ever withering, decays,
These heaven reaching trees, which stems from the crimson soil,
That is my heart....

Fly
The fly spits across my vision
cloud lost skies
a touchscreen world
erratic its journey
seeing the land in splintered
bond moments
jealous of its buttered kaleidoscope cousin
but enamoured by the torrid decays
of the left...

we are

Whitney 2 --Stains
Ripped knapsack
decays with time,
ever stained
from war’s horror.
My young son
flipping in—out
through piles of bones and .echoes.

Soliloquy
The
old man
dies a death,
youth arrives with
Spring-
with
a blaze
of passion
Summer takes a
Fall-
and
decays-
in Winter
darkness ages

One Hit Wonder
How deadly this sweet drink of praise,
that sipped, decays the thing it lauds.
A sly deceiver, 'tis, oh yes,
this chronic craving for applause.
A first place prize, the kiss of death,
to art original and free.
But now is surely lost I fear,
in muddy mires of mimicry....
