Waiting for a
Patch of light,
To return...

My shooting star pierced heaven
Time runs slowly out...

Ferris wheel
In this sky,
Upside down,
Again
Push this sail
Blow your wind...

ferris wheel
rising with the moon and stars
suddenly stops
but hey diddle diddle
almost jump over the moon...

With the sky darkened and clear 
Atop the Ferris wheel 
Looking at the stars  
and seeing the moon... 
Smiling!...

Spinning and turning
Life always like a huge wheel
Mighty ferris-wheel 
We have to cling onto it
Lest it turn and kick us out...

i 
am
perched
high up
upon
this 
Ferris Wheel
up here
where
the
air is fresh and clean 
to 
let
this
world be
my carousel...

  Can't just let her sob...

      spin  and spin around the world

who is winning?
me?
my bike?
the ferris wheel?
the loud carnival barkers?
or the boats?
the boy turned to see
amazed it was him
It might have been his first win...

Love is lights that never stand still,
a thrill that echoes past the chill.
Shared cotton candy and smiles,
wandering through neon miles—
hearts afloat on the Ferris wheel....

Read More

On a ferris wheel enjoying the love 
An opportunity to propose thirty feet above
A thrill enhanced
A wonderful chance
To ask the big question didn't need a shove...

Her fun house fingertips tracing dews drenched, fruitions lips...
Felicities ferris wheel; twined, their voluptuous femme fixations
Sixty-nine pink balloons eroticas poesy, carnival caravan of love....

Hold

on tight 

fighting a

wave of panic

suspended ; don't ever wanna go back

a pair of 
rainbow
Lorikeet birds
Spin free 
as a Ferris wheel
Upon 
the highest branch
In the garden of 
a thousand eyes  
from 
their favorite olive green
Pistachio tree
Sun-bake hands 
Shall 
pray for thee
Upon 
the highest branch...

sometimes the cluster of 
thin smiles comes from 
the  poor children 
trapped in 
the Ferris Wheel of poverty 
where the deep shy
never blossom
we laugh then we cry
for the gentle light whispers
back to us and
the light is all but broken...

Blackest night is slowly fading away,
teasing earth with new dawn radiance, 
golden soon for the current holiday,
neon ferris wheel follows moon dance, 
novel and charming in the new old way,
like a vivid spinning top of chance.

observing mindfully
upswings and downturns
from the void of perfect stillness 
we witness with nonchalance 
Ferris wheel movement
for our soul’s delight

the eye of the hurricane
hums in blissful silence
as this dream unfolds

ferris wheel
inside of sky,
yet
upside down,
again said i
thus
pushing up 
against the sun
sailing through 
timeless clouds
taking me towards 
the other side of
the world gone by
still laughing
through
the gentle wind
said i and
world is
upside down again...

Thought flow freeze, reminder gentle
Doer is manifest
As we’re shaped, upon the mantle
Know this jest but a test

Along the Ferris wheel
Let equal be appeal
Joyous our zest and zeal

Our unease
Thought flow freeze

Time is a merry-go-round
In unruined moments.

It is a Ferris wheel
Of ups and downs.

It is sheer canopy of air
On which all voices sound.

It kisses the ground, all around
And goes no where from here.

Time is infinite lake
Of light, and dark, and diamond sparks.

Walang napapala,
ang titik sa tugma.
Pilitin mang kumawala,
babalik pa rin sa rehas
at kulungang walang tanikala.
Hayaang magdusa
ng walang parusa:
Gumala ng gumala
sa pagitan ng luha at lupa!
At kung sa wakas man magmula,
‘wag papagtagpuin ang dulo
at kabila:
pabayaang maging tama
ang tama!...

The old county faIr
Six times on the Ferris wheel
A three dog night


A sudden shower
Run for cover or shiver
Uncurled ringlets laugh


A tiny trophy
A water pistol winner
Clutched in sleeping hands

Our overture
A rumble of fireworks
Beneath a rainbow

For the winter carnival bundled up,
frozen breath adds to anticipation;
Steaming cappuccino filling my cup,
the vertex of this warm celebration;
Eliminate the need to be grown-up,
tonight enjoy a childhood fixation;
Indulge yourself in a ferris wheel ride,
an event leaving you all but tongue-tied....
