collects iced twigs and leaflets--
a babe swallow's crib

chartreuse leaflets sprinkle dew,
   with faint droplets...opaque hue-
                 weave me lattice to renew

newborn bulbs from sprouts
unfurl into green leaflets
a robin twitters

tulip buds will stretch
to greet the morning sunlight
colors of rebirth

" It's a short venture into the golden fields,
where blank leaflets remain unpressed by the teacher of its province, the sole architect of conception that remains transfixed upon the gossamer harvest, that binds its influence in the tethering of its being. "

 Life is a poem
Life is a book
Being chronicled into, every second
Ink which cannot erase
Black stains  like glue 
Only the master's blood can delete
Pages unknown,leaflets untold
Historians shall study
This old book of mine
Perhaps it will be an inspiration
So let me see what i can tell. ...

Beneath each slender limb and bough
Are beds of russet silken cloths
Discarded leaflets from their home
Like orphans left to die alone

As rumors spread by autumn wind
She'll gather up each orphan, gold
No headstone for the bold and rust
Cold ash to ash... will turn to dust

landscape of willows
spirit rises my sorrow-
weeping by the creek

chartreuse leaflets mourn
for the loss of my daughter-
branches crowd her tomb

hope of trusting faith
brings momentary healing-
roots bud into loss

grieving with the breeze-
effortless heartache reveals
willows born to weep

Students at Work


See them work!
Studious looks,
Buried in books,
Leaflets flipping,
Binders snapping,
Pencils tapping,
Textbooks slamming,
Nick-knacks toppling,
Back-packs rummaging,
Noses rubbing,
Nail nibbling,
knees flapping,
Foreheads scrunching,
Eyebrows rising,
Lips compressing,
Faces scowling,
Chins supported,
Tongues catapulting,
Coughs echoes,
Work Accomplished!...

 Gentle caressing whisper 
A soft lullaby, quiet 
Rustling fresh leaflets ,crackle 
Broken 
Forever in the memory 
Of those who watch 
Forever in the memory 
Of those who listen 
Forever in the memory 
Of those who feel 
I look to the fading light 
Someday 
I may get there 
But maybe not today 
Blazing red, painted sky
I can make it to 
Morning light ...

crimson blades lay lifeless
  trembling-
            
              drowning-

savored by the gold leaflets
that long for daybreak.

fire-orange blades rage-
    detonating-

              rupturing-

savored by the chartreuse leaflets
that thirst for rain.

Hues of combustion remain still-
twilight ascends and alleviates
with empathy...

The treetop glimmers outside my window
   As light, dancing upon the leaflets -
Shimmies about in affable yellow.
   My gaze can't help but be captivated
By light, pure and perfectly aglow.

In the wind, swaying charismatically -
   Every leaf is twirled as a ballerina -
Playing with my fragile jealousy.
   I think I hear an underlying viola -
Oh, light - would you dance with me?...

shield your eyes, not from decomposing worlds
stand in intentional view, make no sound
band together in small ways, with leaflets in hand
for them to see, your vote would count~
and now they know, the young, will be smarter than the past    
and now the further future may be brighter, than we could believe 
so thank you with all my heart~
someone who wants to believe
