Aurora Warbler Focus

Cast of dewdrop voiced thrushes
still pose on aloe bushes
tonal float or plume at dawn
sweet haze on marsh land rushes

Susan Hill's Woman In Black

The woman in black:
Spirit haunting Eel Marsh house,
Detests the living,
Wasted, bitter, died of grief,
Terrifies the villagers.

My Peculiar Mood of the Moment

In a peculiar mood
Waiting for angry gray clouds
To snap me up
And casually float me
Over the trees and the marsh
to Never-Neverland

Rise To the Top In My Air Balloon

Our spirits lifted
Like cream we rise to the top
Clouds like Marsh mallows

Floating without wings
The wind becomes our compass
The birds envy me

Marsh

Cattails, sedges, papyrus,  sawgrass
Fish waterfowl soundless salamanders
In soft wet interface of water and earth
      Reclines the orbit of Marsh

The Beauty of the Orange Sky

Biting mosquitoes and chiggers do not take anything away
From the beauty of the orange sky over the marsh at dusk
Bullfrog music adds to the ambiance of the evening

The Visiting Grandmother

By Angeline Vine

The lady only had one arm left

They found her at the edge of the marsh
both legs gone and her right arm missing

It was an amazing snack

Two Young Tadpoles

Long ago and far away
  In a marsh of murky waters 
Did two young tadpoles play 

Mired deep inside the bog
  Succumbing to relentless fog
~ Divers only found a pair of frogs

Firefly

Fly, little lightning bug
Flurry in marsh and field
Flash your flame at twilight
Flirt in the dark of night
Find yourself a new mate
Fascinating glowworm
Flourish in great numbers

Wind Kisses Marsh Trees

Wind kisses marsh trees
Cattail fairies dance on winds
Fly to find new home.

Sun Rising Over a Field of Marsh Marigolds-Picture 2

Waking up, I was blinded by the radiant, yellow sun rays;
I witnessed with awe a splendid sunrise
rising over a field of marsh marigolds... 
more astonished than a true believer, I praised Him twice!

Highlights of Summer the Butterfly

Hedge holly,pearl bordered
chalk hil!,common,marbled white
in small heath,marsh,
silverwashed..
ephemeral fellow...betwixt
a milkweed speckled wood
and a meadow clouded yellow.

A Sacred Marsh

Here, the infant Day
In a misty hush
Lies, as swaddled.
Moses, among the reeds!
And the Nile's weeds.

No wind dares blow up.
Stirs, lapwing, leaf.
As duck, paddled.
Daughter of Eygpt's throne
Come claim your own!

Cat In Muddle

Played with marsh
And fell into it.
The struggle was harsh.
He couldn't succeed even a bit.
Playfulness
Leads to harmfulness
Carefulness
Could bring cheerfulness
Shouldn’t each human know this?
Shouldn't they avoid amiss?

Ibis

wetland water whirls
an ibis searches for crabs ~
foraging ballet

white feathers emerge
standing tall on bright pink stilts ~
bill crab prize displayed

grunts and cooing sounds
echo the wet marsh at dusk ~
ibis courting chant

Harsh Walk Through Marsh

Harsh Walk Through Marsh

While I was walking through a marsh,
End of poem I read  had been harsh;
Was hesitating;
Poem devastating;
Cried on hankerchief that had starch.

Trump wants to drain swamp and 
marsh as well.

After Rain

Dew ballet stirs animate on fragrant morning air
Acidic steam ere ancient winds admit first sight of dawn
Marsh rafts bearing saddened reeds through mangrove-sheltered heat
Perspiring forest greens' forced breaths as night so wetly fades.

A Midnight Ride

Marsh
Ponies
once roamed
here. Nickering
their abundant joy.
Wild beauty Now extinct.
Sometimes, on a foggy night
folks have seen ghost herds frolicking
along the sand where dunes meet the sea.
I would Love to go for a Midnight ride.

Water Lilies

I saw white lilies floating on the lake
And thought of reeds bent forth over the marsh. 
It is much easier, indeed, to take
The form of water lilies, and perhaps less harsh.
