In winter 
Fruitless labor of wind
No leaves to blow off....

Right before my eyes
it has begun to wither.
The trust is rotten....

Bright splashes-
scattered roses in fruitless field
butterflies take notice....

being all things to all 
a fruitless, worthless pursuit
being kind, unique 
good character builds...

A Thanksgiving turkey fowl
Pentecost pancakes
Harvest jacket potatoes
A Holiday sundae
Fruitless Christmas cake
Easter egg
Praise!...

Passing by a fruitless grave
Made me stare dispassionately
Atthe lives that were lost in waves
And tossed into battle so dispassionately...

Hopeful hearts beating so so fast 
For it's time for verdict to cast 
It's time to whip the fruitless ass 
In hole of needle, it will pass...

His life wasted in fruitless search for happiness for love was blindfolded by ego's quest!

Regrets

a stressful moment to recall
events
of poor decisiveness
bad choice
gainless
fruitless
bad and sad.

Regrets.

Crows' feast

a good job, farmer
he prepares dinner for us
let's toast and eat it up!




Farmer's moan
 
they appear from nowhere
steal my seed mercilessly
fruitless my labour...

Formidable floundering frisky fish followed furiously, 
Flogging fourteen flustered freshman froggies
Furious followers filed fine-tuning finesse
Frostily furthering fruitless froggy fortitude....

You make this quest
This mission to muddle fruitless words together
This question that riddles my soul
Meaningless

Empty Mothers   

For every lonely child
lost to love,
an empty mother rues
her fruitless days

Empty mothers
cry in the sun.
Lonely children
long to dance.

SUSAN  (A name poem)

Susan seldom sulked
Unless she felt mistreated
She dreamt-- elusive adoration
At times her quest seemed fruitless
Never truly disembarked

Some people have lots to say about nothing
Obsessed, blurting stuff that really needs flushing
Not worth the effort
Planning's quite fruitless
Unless a gorgeous filly starts you a-blushing...

retched, a stomach twisting curdle
sour, the bile that rises from malcontent
tearful, yet, tears are futile, a waste of water
understanding seems never to come or come too late
all one can do is suck it up and try to love again...

Optimist: “Look! It’s half full.”
Pessimist: “No! Half empty!”
Realist: “Such debates are
fruitless. Let’s all just share the water.”

Your leaves are fruitless
I hold the root
Your efforts, useless
I taste the fruit

Your bulb is dim
I know the source
Your fish won’t swim
Without your force

I pass as mute
To save your face
This whole dispute
A sad disgrace...

You were like a queen
Of a fairy tale
Looking for a king
To love and feel well
I was a poor guy
But fell in love with you
I waited for you
To come and love me too
I killed my precious time
Dreaming fruitless dream
Now I repent for that
Devastating whim...

Baby I can’t forget your face
Baby I can’t forget your grace.

Baby I can’t forget your smiles
I can’t forget your sexy styles.

Baby I can’t forget your eyes
I can’t forget our fruitless tries.

Baby it’s just cause and effect
We are like iron and magnet....

It's best not to leave this old fellow unsupervised
Not responsible for his actions, could be extremely unwise
No telling where it might lead
Check the sofa, might've peed
This old fart can no longer be helped it's really fruitless to try...

Allah deserves their prayer
And whom they pray to besides Allah
Give them no answer.
They are like the one who stretches forth 
Two hands towards water
Thinking it may reach the mouth
But it’s a mere madness
And prayer of the unbelievers is fruitless....

Those who desire the worldly life and its prettiness
We fully give them reward herein and no less

There will be nothing for them hereafter but the Fire
Fruitless will be the designs they frame here
And their good deeds will be then of no effect whatsoever....
