Winter Rainbows

Blanket swaddled 
Face pressed against
Icy glass. 

Amazed!

Sunlight shooting 
beautiful rainbows from 
hanging Icicles.

Like a pendulum, 
Those navajo beads swinging
Upon clothing rack
On which my robes are hanging,
With an aqua quartz dangling.

My Swing

a rope between trees
hanging down in a U shape
a rolled carpet seat:
my swing in my gran’s garden
where I’d sit shaded by elms

Only thing worse than
Hanging by thread, is waiting
To live my own life.
I now know I much rather
Hang onto the words she said.

The Weeping Willow

it looks like an old she
a witch maybe
her clothes 
tattered
look like thin reed threads
hanging down
all around
her frail bent body

Happy Birthday

I saw it . . .
A golden morning sun, 
Surfacing the crystalline ocean,
Hanging high beyond the foggy horizon, 
It's my birthday!

Blue Bird Hanging Cozy Nest

blue bird cozy nest
she loves her cozy snag home
so lovely cute house
swinging in autumnal wind
sweet neat night dear lovely bird

A baton
A stick
A kid
A wish
A magic wand
A swish swish swish
A batonkid
Hanging on the street
And in the yard
Life is sweet

Just Hanging?

Hanging on the edge: I don't know why
Hanging on the edge: I think I'm  going to cry
Hanging on the edge: Don't let life pass me by!

Virtue

the hair fell in my eyes
but i left it hanging there
i like it better that way
because virtue often comes
in the grip of blindness
Form:

Trapped

Icy pain gently blinded tears
Inside the glistening icicles

Pulling her encaged screams behind bitter snow
Released hanging death
