father-san said no
to my succulent June bug
who wrote me love songs
we harmonise together
under the swinging lanterns

Jack-o’ lanterns flee~
down pumpkin-stained gravel roads
panicked exodus
night drifts~
blue lanterns hum,
their light a quiet wish.
I wander through the hush of stars,
longing
Treasures on the strand
Lanterns reflect off wet sand
Fragile shell in hand

Painted lanterns in forest
Lit at a night festival
Path lighted for only us
Love’s path moving on

the mountains and clouds o’er head
window-bright lanterns

Starlight spills like frost,
dusting night’s dark velvet rim.
Galaxies breathe slow~
soft lanterns in cosmic drift.
as the light rises
ephemeral and breathless
a new beginning
unrecognisable yes
indelible nonetheless
jack o lanterns bright
candy all set for tonight...
asleep and missed it

Soft nights lit by porch lanterns,
quiet vows beneath drifting stars,
hands entwined through borrowed dreams~
love grew, unafraid.
paper lanterns afloat
in a crowded, narrow street
true urban beauty

The ocean
Gave a gift to me
A coin for passage
Across the sea
To pay the ferryman
Should I need to cross
To light the lanterns
So I won't
Get lost
Red comforts me
My go-to lucky color
Red hearts
Red lanterns
Red strawberries
Red blood
It's normal
It's natural
It surrounds me
In warmth and reality
It’s hallowe’en,
Kids are trick or treating,
Dressed as pirates, ghosts,
And many other things,
With pumpkins as lanterns,
Lighting their way.

On my dark dresser
I have some fun for season
I have lit pumpkins
Some evil looking pumpkins
Great Jack-O-Lanterns tonight
Russell Sivey
Full moon overhead
Jack-O-Lanterns a-glowin’
Black cats on the prowl
Witches flying on broomsticks
Stars twinkle on Halloween
Russell Sivey
Halloween tricks, treats
With witches on the mantle
Doing their flying
Right next to Jack-O-Lanterns
And delightful skeletons
Russell Sivey
in the darkened woods
caretakers carry lanterns
in search of nightly spirits
in midst of panic
a shriek of fright as one falls
the darkness consumes his soul
One part fall flowers
To two parts Jack-O-Lanterns
That’s the formula
For warm greeting on my porch
Sending in Halloween guests
Russell Sivey
In my mind
In my mind
We’re building a castle
In a city of lanterns, parachutes ,
balloons and bubbles in the sky

Lanterns bleed on snow
Frost paints the window
lace
Your breath hangs like
smoke
Crimson scarf, trembling
hands
Night hums a low prayer
Stars undress into dawn
Pumpkins reveal heads
Carved for the nights excitement
Scary expressions
Portrayed within the pumpkins
Jack-O-Lanterns frighten all
