in currents of Grace

haiku
the poison dart frog
these from the native to tropical central and south america.
No swimming in water.
Her body was the sea
Hips were the tides
I used to ride my canoe in the morning
The current always got rough at night
pale moonlight drifts low
over the quiet river
soft reeds lean inward
listening for God’s soft breath
courtship song tumbling
stream of notes, water on stones
love's sphere surfaces
Senryu composed July 20/2022
rafters run rapids
raucous ribaldry resounds ~
rugged ridge raptors

Have you ever
Seen a hippopotamus
Running in cadence,
Alongside an
African, Kenyan man
Oh, what a lovely
River smile
Pellucid water reflects
Image of his beloved
Daydreaming about his muse
In the river shore

A poem is a
freezing
inner conscience
someone threw
by a stone
as it breaks
It's the record of those groans.
An event.
the
tapestry of stars
we
flow
at night
shall
weave
the
river of light
red blue and green
with
some indigo
tonight
barrelfish downstream
through translocation will tryst
zesty myriad

Drops of rain are so liquid allies
that embrace each other in a trance, in fever
come together to create fountains and river
channel river streams;
flowng ever so daunting
rivers waters flow

In the pond, a dragonfly is teaching small fishes surfing
On the bank, my thought is attempting to Knit a net
To catch them
they fly high
up in the sky
fly down and around
some land
on there feet
mabe its for sleep
its
SEA BRIDS AND THE BEACH
timber and fruit laughed
rustling trees crowned with wreath
from the joy river

Peace is a river
In this quiet stream
That flows through
A place in the sun
What beauty,
Peace and love
Oh Lord, well done
Through the Partnach Gorge,
Super-aerated rapids
Drop past awed climbers.
churning and darting
changing from blonde to brunette
do calisthenics

its family time
under the sunshine
we pack the rack
time to relaxs
weather is hot
we fine nice lot
its
PICNIC AT THE DOCK
incessantly
spilled blood flow
like raging rivers
absorbed into soil
transfusing …nourishing
withered roots
reincarnation
