    eyes dulled, vacant stare
 
  Needles spread all about
    another sprout, its life snuffed out

Let the murmuring rain 
slice through the withering leaves,
like slender silver needles
and stitch the Earth's quiet wounds.

walk through the forest
birds call animals scurry 
untamed undergrowth 
steps quiet on pine needles

Time Lapse

Wheels of time turning needles;
Worries of day twisting on spindle 
Days passed boxing bundle
Night sparkles with hopes and kindles

Pain
 
intense, continual
 
frightening, maddening, depressing, crushing

On Pins and Needles

Grimacing with eyes closed
And staggering to stand
On cranky legs and feet
With numb prickings shooting
Like a thousand points of light

you rock
hands turning
over blue crochet needles

CUT

Big needles 

I ran and I fell 
The jar broke and cut me 
Thirteen stitches in my hand 

"Never run with glass in your hand"

Premium Member good tailoring isn't swift

Certain yarns with needles knit
Are not strong and likely will split
So please keep in mind
The seamstress is kind
And insists on try-ons for fit

As long as the wheel of fortune 
of your heart spins
I'll be on pins and needles
until when I have found myself 
dangling in the clear green waters 
of your eyes

There was this old lady, drinking soup
She was also knitting, loop by loop
She ran out of yarn
Screamed and said- "Oh Darn!"
Started dunking needles in ball hoop!

Rain of Torture

The needles
Of thousands
and of millions
pour on me,
Drenching me
with its
Arctic temperature.
Each drop is like
a frozen amber,
Smouldering
at absolute zero.

Premium Member Latent Christmas

Walking amidst latent Christmas —
path of pines
with diverse needles,
in the Summer-soaked sun.
A chipmunk nestled in its soft branch
— the chosen one.
