Autumn Wind

autumn
wind mutters
something which sets the
black poplars ashake with mirth

the leaves
fly over
the window - utter
a word as they pass - listen

Haystacks and poplars
Rivers and views
Gardens and lilies
with abstract hues-
these impressions ..I choose

impressions of summer-

Poplars
 
against the rising moon;
filled full of roosting cormorants-
sleeping;
as 
long shadows,
rippling between
reflections of scudding clouds-
where evanescent images
settle.

Premium Member At No Distance

behind the town
by a pond
upwards reach
poplars,birch and beech:
over the roof
out of sight
lies temptation..
apples overhang
an orchard wall,
ripening in the 
sun awaiting
Autumn's fall

Sanctuary

Convalescing
From 
“Civilization”
From the bloated, rude, crude, insatiable
Busy-for-naught
Businessmen,
Found me a plot
In a lost meadow
Where owls swoon
With dancing stars
And poplars rock
My hammock.

Premium Member Poplars

standing
o so tall
reaching,
stretch the
branches
up and out.

their leaves
rustling
in the breeze
glitter
catching sunrays,
releasing them
playfully
till sundown.

Piney woods, perfume the forests; sweet scents waft upon the air. Great oaks share their strength; Popular poplars whisper lost secrets. In the great kingdom of trees, generosity is paramount.

House

This house is
so quiet
(as every single house).
In the morning - with a color.
And the night - with semitones.
I'll love you - it says - in this
town.
With the benches of those in love,
with the poplars in May.,
with the rains.
I'll love you - it says.
And life goes on.

Premium Member A Bunch of Nonsense

By the shadows of summer
I declare war on spring
Winter gave me passage
While my true heart appears missing
the sounds of the evening town
Over the poplars
The things that go missing one-by-one
make patches of muted sound, while
The things that add up day after day
Float like a watery memory
Oh what of tomorrow's sorcery

Before Coffee Poem

Birds chirp by jarfuls
in twilight dawn.

The sun could stand correction
in the hesitation of fulfillment.

The planets & stars roll off
the table of sky, plop
in the puddle of lakes serene
as maniacs in straight jackets.

The wind mumbles
it isn’t so.  The unbend poplars
don’t care,
and children
aren’t children anymore.

To God It Seems As Though

Hills pull their blankets out
and leave bare their naked spines
permitting Junes and me
to Summer there

Streams must appear to Him
as traveling caravans
The painted leaves like prisms do
with hues of rumpled Persian rugs

All seems Persia has pulled it's banners out
and march off to the sea
Turbaned poplars and lakes like tents
Is it jocosity?

Faye '09

Thou dancest amongst the   
posies and poplars alike.  
O how thou dost admire, so   
sung the feathered choir.  
Whispering breeze not of a  
foolish tongue;  
Though words wiser unto  
inspire of.  
Poesy of an internal beautician  
and thy spirit which   
soothes thereof love;  
Caressing thy heart  
beating e'ermore young.  
O beloved "Faye".

For Christopher Okigbo

For you were a shrub among the poplars,
Evergreen and watery seeds your watchword
Scribbling knowledge in spilt-milk saga
Set pace for the observing world which in
Foetus I did follow, after the mighty fall
That very spot at the Nsukka Front should know
No deletion; let it grow shrubs for Okigbo’s wreaths,
And, poplars, in one single trunk, be his monument of a
Shrub among the Poplars.
And let the HEAVENSGATE open for him.

Foliage Flatlands

utterly bewildered 
I stood by the nightfall
of stilly midsummer
withering away
with my
westward companion

the glimmering light
of former fears
and penitent pocketbook
faded in a distance
and the imperious presage
of perfunctory morrow
drifted with driftwood
into the vast greenish seas

then the evening was renewed
with foliage flavor
willows and poplars
entwined and enthralled
and according to accordion
divine divers live in flatlands

Premium Member Another Spring

Another Spring

The days are getting longer,
The sunshine getting stronger,
The snowdrops started flowering,
And poplars still are towering.

Creation, God’s expression
Of his power,  his love, his mission,
Makes mankind look up to Him, 
For some, feel deep their sin.

Then see Jesus, God the Son,
Salvation on the Cross He won,
So take some time to look and think,
No more in sad depression sink,
To Jesus go and feel His love
And all His glory up above!

What Sad Eyes!

What sad eyes!

What gray eyes!

Perhaps, he has told you , 

What you - not the first with him? 

Your raincoat is wet from rain ,

And your curly hair is wet.

How he could offend you -

You are so proud! 

But the leaves of lindens and poplars,

Are flying as thoughts, 

And a rain - 

A gray sparrow

Kisses the pools.

The happiness has gone away,

And will not return any more.

No! You must believe:

and in your life

will be sun again!
