moss climbs
a fallen branch—
no one hurries here...

Fluttering magic
Barely stopping by today
Bright Monarch hurries on...

Today, he hurries, 
passing breakfast;
Barely making every deadline;
Rushing home
   -- For her tomorrow....

The sun is setting,
golden and low,
and as twilight shadows
quietly pass
the old man hurries
but his pace is slow....

Ocean whispers to ship “Come near”
The poor thing being so deaf hurries

When the hungry ocean swallows it,
even its tears refuses to be witness...

Love is like the falling water from  a fall
each drop seems to be rather small
but hurries on ahead
and bangs one after the other
on the lover’s head...

Went to bed last night
A poem on my mind
  Fell fast asleep
  The day left behind

Came the morning
That poem was gone
  No sense crying
  Time hurries on...

Windy, restless day
Grey clouds dance across the sky
The persistent sun peaks through

White caps on the pond
The day hurries to an end
Pink cotton candy sunset...

The Bluebird of Happiness
I send to you today
He brings you all my love
As he hurries on his way

May his song fill your heart
As it was meant to be
And every time you hear it
You will think of me...

sometimes in life you see the one, 
who draws you cross the room, 
a moth to candle hurries some, 
burnt with passion, fire consumed. 
hypnotised, well done....

Why Santa hurries to visit Ukraine?
He knows the people there are in great pain.
He feels the consequences,
Of Putin's crooked senses;
He grasps Ukraine will fix Putin again...!

Listen to some music
Trash all of your worries
Listen to some music 
Slow the mind that hurries
Listen to some music
At least deal with one's voices
Listen to some music
Make some positive choices!...

Reckless tumbleweed
hurries across forgotten graves
of those who toiled through despair
and anguish
fighting drought and famine
depression and unemployment
heat and cold
locusts and dust storms
daily uncertainty......

Those rose tinted glasses, my childhood pair, 
The glow of a rainbow's alluring flair. 
No worries no hurries, sweet carefree glee, 
Promise by pinky without guarantee. 

Intense senses of blurred lenses, no pun - 
Cheap keepsake - enriched me for the long run.

Cupid 
strikes 
with 
an 
arrow,
 But 
indeed 
his 
mind 
is 
so 
narrow,
  That 
the 
victim 
can 
barely 
feel 
an 
arrow. 
Which 
but 
hit 
the 
barrow,
  That 
he 
hurries 
off 
and 
flie's 
away, 
not 
knowing 
he's 
left 
the 
man 
to 
be 
dying 
away.......

Out the side of my eye
in my propel vision
I spied
Amidst the summer side
In the flowers
A small butterfly
Aloft and lifted it hurries
Fluttering upside down
Ravishing the air if breaths around
Sucking out the nectar from the buds
Aromatic scents of God's love

The sun dips behind forest trees
There is a moment to say please
Spread your rays as far as this hill
This time of day, for light to spill
Across the land, through the window
Highlighting things I want to know
It hurries with breath of wind’s sigh
I rush to watch and say goodbye

Summer hurries by,
Through green and brown
To gold and dust, they die,
The leaves which summer had caressed
And breathed upon and gently brought
To all the stirring shades of autumn.
The seasons now embrace,
Each bids a fond farewell
As teardrops freeze
They part,warm hand in hand of ice,
And cheek to frosty cheek....

On a hot spring afternoon, a wet postman
Hurries down the sidewalk home.
I catch him stepping on a new white iris,
And were I not alone, I would but
Scold him, but I would not, instead,
I wouldst hand him a cold coke for his dripping head,
Then pat him on his shoulder and pick up a dropped letter,
On this unseasonably hot afternoon....

Death the silent lover
always near but far
dedicated to his work
unreliable but faithful 
he waits today
but  hurries tomorrow
sees, hears his lover
but lover sees him not
he waits as lover feeds
but when he comes 
swallows lover wholesale

This silent listener
seeing with eyes closed
hearing with ears blocked
precarious unpredictable
he is!...

Early morning twilight rain
lasting an hour

a snapping  of pictures
here and there-
the moon vibrates

no wave tides
away, the watch
hurries to some times

water is cool and hot-
woo, woo, woo
a cuckoo shouts

to thes things
partial glee in bliss and butter
laughing and flourishing in joy

may be akin
to an aestethic tangential
angle of apples?....

ZEPHYR


She strolls out in a summer woodland glade
The leaves of fall bedeck her head to feet
She  hurries through the snowy city street
Her singing in the springtime does not fade


Cool my tired shoulders at the days end
Caress my cheek with feather soft and light
Whisper tales of love all through the long night
Wake me fresh and pure, everlasting friend...

A long pathway beside the sea
She looks up and she sees me
I walk towards her and she hurries away
Running hard why wont she stay

Calling out my voice is lost on the wind as it whips and stirs
I wonder at her beauty and want to reach out to her
But she is away in the distance now I know
And my heart pounds as I realise I wont have her now.
