Unfortunate

Unfortunate I am in this generation
only girls with migrant labor souls
and vibrating pilgrim lips
get trapped in my basket of love

blue sky migrant skims springtide…,
they shun green meadows

YOUR EYES AND MINE



  Your eyes, migrant boats
     when they found mine
       of frigate, experienced navigator
        Then they asked me for a pier...

Anti-migrant rant causes campaign bump.
Foolish remarks puts his empire in peril,
Possibly losing–lock, stock and barrel.

I, Migrant

The Lady of Liberty looks me in the eye.
I am tempest-tost, and welcome reliant.
I pass at her feet, yet gaze at torch high:
Soon to be standing on the shoulders of giants.

Premium Member Travellers

They still label us as gipsies and tinkers

but it is them with the blinkers

everyone is a migrant

and our culture is vibrant

let us not forget about Treblinka

Zealand

Sparkling clear
And singing low
Free as a migrant
As you go

A ripple here
A current there
An ebb and flow
With an idle air

A twist and turn
And you carry on
Water-borne
And pure as dawn

Departure In Winter

An apple split
by my own thumbs,
a removal man.

You are an ebb distant,
a rustle of waves,
an upflight of birds,
migrant in ice.

When you cross the street
to your car, this a closure
in dull light. Winter`s tale.

Premium Member Sanctuary For Birds

Migrant jays quiver on ruins of their calm abode

As ghostly flakes of autumn’s trail reel with an insolent breeze.

Winging low, crystal moon guides pale birds through a nest of light.

Premium Member Leaves Leave

each leaf in its way 
fly like homeward migrant birds ---
toward nations new 

winds and storms ahead 
flying with each green and red ---
find paths of their own 

they might reach in seas 
or in lands known or unknown ---
consciously conscious

Premium Member Autumn Eyes

prismatic trees sway
as I ramble through the woods
picturesque hued fall

chrysanthemum blooms
among varicolored leaves
scarlet migrant birds

pale lemon sunshine
aged summer's lost his might
and is fading fast

the eyes of autumn
follow each beautiful sight
arrested by hues

Trump and Things Inherent

Trump and Things Inherent

Trump has abused another migrant;
He prefers things that are inherent;
His adipose,
Is gross;
Separated a child from their parent.

Jim Horn

We already have almost 20 million 
children who have mental problems.
Less than 70 years ago one of them 
was trump.

Irony In the Sky

White chevron squadrons usher in spring
With squawking and honking and flapping of wings.
Their return brings a weekend to revel in fun.
The locals all love it, and hundreds more come!
But the poor migrant snow goose must be sorely perplexed;
Revered on one weekend, then slaughtered the next!

Country Life

Clear sky does pleasant eye awake
Warm sun on placid skin placate
Soft songs sung by migrant birds
Add to the harmony all peace reserved
Wander thoughts and feet together
Scenic glory whatever  the weather
I would if life allowed
Sit here pondering every cloud
And wish that I could pass each day
In this most reverent way

For Migrants No Other Choice

For Migrants No Other Choice

When we had heard voice after voice,
Containing crying making loud noise;
Heading here,
Still with fear;
Coming to America was only choice.

To arrive in America tried and tried,
And yet after all of this she still died;
Another migrant,
To heaven went;
No water supplied and father cried.

    Everything today is a crisis

        tariff crisis, free-trade crisis
        health-care crisis, population crisis

Dark

like a migrant thai worker
i pedal my bicycle on the 
village path hunched over
dark my face covered against
the dust the dogs bark at me

the bees slammed into my forehead
and the scent of a distant homeland
assault my nostrils and like his letters 
back  home 

silverplating the sweat of his brow

my poems two are wrapped in darkness 
that covers my longing

Premium Member Migrating

In early spring’s afterglow Egrets head north as winds row; Dwelling on lattice of plains And coo warble mild refrains-- How migrant journey stirs on When April wakes with delight Until lull of morn is done-- A homecoming … our birds' rite !

not too hot nor cold 
     sheets are slightly moist ~ just right

Dedicated to the employers of migrant workers, 
who pay them so little they have to practice
hot-bedding, to afford a roof over their head, the
proven breeding ground for current coronavirus

Trump a Bed Wetter

Trump A Bed Wetter

Trump said he would make America better;
Likes Golden  Showers and is a bed wetter;
Here parents went,
And are migrant;
He does have much difficuly writing a letter.

Trump Destroyed Drinking Ghord

Knew that it was away and very far;
Saw drinking ghord with North Star;
Sought relief, 
From grief;
Of law does not believe in the letter.

Premium Member Daytime Crystalline

Fat midnight bats feast, gnawing gnats, and flit away serene
      while on the trails in distant dales the lonesome wolverine
            sate appetites as dawn alights and daytime's crystalline.

A migrant feeds on rotting seeds with fingers far from clean
      and thereby’s blessed with barren breast (the easier to wean) -
            her baby sucks an arid flux and fades away unseen.

Premium Member Tourmaline Birthstone Cycle

October hushes
a cold snap, baldachin for 
red, brown and gold leaf. 
Indian summer waver, Indian rope trick 
sent to douse earthen world shackle.
Bogus heat pump transience.
Polar air mass scatters migrant bird 
on vibrant amber.
Ocean gust saline coated whisper
 to autumn eardrum host.
Nightscape shadows rudely cut across 
the afternoon event space.

The Lovely Loyal Working Bees

Migrant bees swarming to the flowers 
Passing through the beam of sunrays
The best ones are meeting the rain
The feared ones hiding the round petals
So tired for the whole day working
Gathering nectar for the seers and queen
This is the responsibility of a lowly worker
Working his butt out for love and loyalty
The beehives must content abundant honey
For the existence of nature and humanity.
