shades of cerulean enclose my ice-bound heart
and radiate misted frost into the breath of the earth,
tethering love in its glacial grip....

Blown of indignities,  what quiet yet hangs
Thought-beauteous well above them.
Enclose darknesses of all kinds. Still crowned
With Virtue's starry diadem....

   measure
    without
     undue
       tenure,
a
   process
     to tend
to screen
to enclose
to corner...
....so fragile..
in the mist
of my
         mind...

a kaleidoscope of vibrant darkness
in my mind
that leaves my emotions spinning
like a fairground ride

wild horses 
escape the carousel
by night

and dreams enclose me...

I am the one
That was 
A faint echo
Of voices in dust
Past hazards of wind.

A being of itself
Perhaps
Entered into form
Into veins of my brain
Into my slight arms
To enclose within
Misty configurations
Domains of high romance....

The wind among the trees
The sun behind a cloud
A peaceful day in my back yard
Is where my soul is found

It may not be too large
For fences it enclose
But my whole world waits there for me
And all my dreams there flow....

BOXED LIDS  © Haiku +

fear
Don’t enclose me in 
Boxes come with four walls sealed 
 Seals me inside out! 
 

fear
BOXED IN!  ©  HAIKU +
A well fitted ‘box’ closets in
When the lid clamps shut
Capturing me in darkness!...

All this hatred, what good does it do us? What desires does it please? What paths does it carve? And regardless, regardless of the nuisance it causes us to bear, we still own it, enclose it, and keep it buried in our feeble hearts....

I am the one
That was not
A mere echo
Of voice meaningless
In the hazards of the wind.

The being of myself
Perhaps
Entered into form
Into the brain
Into my arms
To enclose within
Some misty configurations
Domain of some high romance....

After sun's radiant light  
Night's silhouettes dance swiftly
Shadows 'pon cobbled side walk
Dark recesses do enclose
Moonlight's trickling beams circle
Little boy's shadow does grow
Deep thoughts~soon he'll be that tall ...

Merry Christmas little dove
My heart, my gift to you in love
Merry Christmas bluebird fair
Take it, treat it with due care
Merry Christmas vanilla rose
Let it all of you enclose
Merry Christmas butterfly 
Never will it say goodbye

Cowardess
                 Closed Eyes
          Hidding Behind Masks
         Fears Enclose the Mind
Make You Believe Almost Anything
         Face Your Darkest Fears
               Open Your Eyes
           Staying Headstrong
                     Bravery...

I AM THE ONE

I am the one
That was 
A faint echo
Of voices in dust
Past hazards in the wind.

A being of itself
Perhaps
Entered into form
Into veins of my brain
Into my slight arms
To enclose within
Dusty configurations 
Congregating to
 Domains of high romance....

THE  ROSE

Her heart with fragrant beauty shows
The womb her silken hands enclose
But curling fingers edged with gold
Must wither soon as they grow old
And as her petals curl with age
To gently fall like turning page
They will in memory oft repeat
To us a scent that lingers sweet...

After a cleansing rain, the open plains reveal:
    no sign of contaminating dust.
Clearly visible now: 
    emerald peaks rising behind hills.
The city gate enclose: 
    willows watered by the creek
    bordering fields yet to be plowed.   
With the advent of spring,
    it is now time to sow and toil....

As the dust settles
in our hearts
hands are left reaching, 
grasping, pleading
from the concrete tombs
that enclose our lives.
We are pressed down
by the burdens of living, 
unable to heal our
wounded souls.
We are losing our battle…
hoping, praying, 
for someone, somewhere
to free us from the rubble
of ourselves....

Whitewashed sterile walls enclose,

Cluttered fixtures and cluttered egos,

Layed to waste on the purgatorial carpet,

After the august ersatz banquet.

 

Yet sporadically in bouts of joy,

Benevolent souls oblige this toy.

Obscenely bright becomes mellow light,

And sterile walls vanish from sight....

Ice glistens on trees, in sun.
Winter slick on my tires spun.

Cubes in my glass winter cold.
Diamonds are ice, with a gold

Ring to enclose. Ice age froze
Our Mother Earth, then rebirth.

Ice sickles are beautiful too.
Water on grasses, morning dew.

Hot sun melts the ice, around.
Then there's none to be found....

Mud cookies
        Swallowed,
        Under
        Punishing sun.  
        Cramp
        Dampness 
        Termination,
        New day has begun.
        Perplexed
        Deprived hunger,
        I fritter away
        Enclose fun.
       Unbalanced
       Ying 
              Yang
       The Devil has won....

The crisis swoops down
Like a broad-winged bird
Soars in upon me, it seems
To enclose my future and dreams.
The phantom of dread
Enters my darkened future
And intrudes on all my hope
Leaves me in darkness to grope.
Then like a giant crane
The wings unfold and lift
And once again I can see
Ahead, and faith returns to me....

Exotic elephants excitedly 
Enclose Eastern entertainers 
Entering exclusive environment; 
Expeditiously excluding entry 
Every evening except Easter, 
Exceptionally expedient exposure 
Ensures elephant’s environs.
