Descending full moon
A perfect swollen disk

Sneaks 
Behind horizon peaks 
And fleeing morning’s Sun
Escapes

Fleeing in the dead of night,

Fleeing Capture

Equus Caballus
   Flying hooves cry for freedom
      Why are you pursued?

Fleeing Visions

dark shadows, death waits
sun burst upon bright new dawn
moonlight on lake shore

Checkmate

The Pawn and Knight, the Rook and Queen-
Bishops hunt the fleeing King
Too many moves (I'm sure to lose)
A court of squares- two fiends!

Scars

You can't always inter a scar,
If the affair that induced its being;
Is a clock haunting from afar,
And from its memory you're fleeing.

Lost and Found

Gunfire wounded
temple time passes by
fleeing dominance, anger,
lovers linger lost
freedom glorified, homage;
saffron incense calls prayer.

fleeing ---

the 
    flames
              of
                time
                      (in)
                   a
             time
          of
flames

Skadi

There once was a Norse goddess named Skadi
A Winter Ruler in huntress’ body
	An expert at skiing
	Her enemies fleeing
Ester Ledecka she did embody

Black Flight

Michelle Obama hammered Caucasians
for fleeing the inner city mayhem
she blamed it on racial malice
from her oceanside palace
a few hundred miles from gangland

What Does the Fox Say

Creeping slick as silk
Crimson foxes scour the night
Like screaming banshees.

Mom and pups scatter
Like fluffy roaches fleeing
When we peek outside.

Blub...

Ancestor's Caravan

Desperate people moving
Fleeing heartbreak and despair
Traveling towards the land of opportunity,
Seeking shelter from harsh rulers,
Seeking peace and a better life.

Her

Her star shines bright
Above the rest
She is my child
She is my best, of
All that I could give
Her blood and being
She has shared
With a world fleeing
Mediocrity.

Dust Mights

The sands of time
swirl about the streets
fleeing sunset
fearful of a darkness
looming in each daybreak.

Refuge

Running through the open fields..
Cutting by the barn.

Running through a shallow brook..
You're fleeing from harm.

Running to a friendly face..
You're safe now in my arms.

A Note In November

Like a note in November
Left on some treeless leaves
Still as snowflake constellations
Made lost along the drainway
And till unsighted
These words falling, fleeing
Into Winter.

Continue Reaching Out

We perish
from all those around
fleeing
disguising ourselves
disappearing
hiding beneath facades
dematerializing
withdrawing within oneself
while others
continue reaching out

Separate

I'd dating two hearts
for country and Queen
Each known to the other
as separate and fleeing

Where love is a battle
each one can reside
For each one a man's
not true to decide

June Bug

A june bug, flying at night, races to a window light
To the greens behind the sill, fleeing from the twilight's chill
But alas! The window is shut—no rest to find in this glass hut

God

God
music
love
blessing.
Hypocrites
judging
hate
gossip
venomous.
Fleeing to dark
condemning
worthless
God?
Jesus.
I forgive.
New life.
Light.
Healing.
God.

Fall

Fleeing, she's off balance by losing her slipper
Abundant vegetation of changing color
Laboring, the Royal King’s Sun adventures south  
Life covers the land, embosomed by summer’s mouth

Mocking Birds Omen of Doom

Sam Adams
A lonely old man
Was walking in the hills
Near his house,
Encountering mocking birds,
Mocking him, chasing him.
He ran down the path fleeing,
Hearing omens of his pending doom

Geese Fleeing

Geese fleeing, your constant cry, then wing threatening, the pretending fear, I will not deny. Come no closer, the screaming few, I will walk away, just give me your, well awaited, patient cue.

Silent Solitude

In our world,
  noise traps 
    and
 suffocates us -

 We desire fleeing
   to silent
    solitude.
