Short Lemongrass Poems

A nice warm teacup
     Aromatic and healing
           Good inside and out
                 Skin, GI, hair, and oral
                        A sweet blast of lemongrass...

Dans l'aube de ma journée, je vous vois
floating along-side my quiet slumber
resurrecting visions that reside
in the stillness of my breath 
as I await the rising sun
Peaceful rays of love lie down
within a lemongrass fragrant breeze
tap gentle on a probing heart
and soothe dawn's gift of golden light...

Grows the night when breath lays quietly
On obscure places fluid as winds,
Where clouds of rest become a hammock
Lulling frayed veins with lemongrass tea -
Grows the night allowing surrender
Its hypnotic  intoxication
The exchange of matter and being-
For across the distance grows the night.

Cotton clouds,
blue skies,
chasing the butterflies
wildflowers
and grassy bed
the celestial sphere overhead
leaning trees,
green foliage,
sweet wild berries
cuckoos singing
and crickets answering
murmuring cool stream
lemongrass sprouting
on both banks
unwatched dreams,
crowding in the eyes
dusty feet 
and soiled pants
but ecstatic memories
and beautiful discoveries....

Modern shoppes
Bayfront attractions;
Window shopping spree

Midnight nocturne
Window view moments;
Bedtime distraction

~~~~~~~~~


Music seeps
Through front door;
Passing minstrel vagabond

~~~~~~~~~


Easy escapade
Scented lemongrass;
Spa massage

~~~~~~~~~


Fond company
Old lovers sit quietly;
Calm charms crisp
