Sap

i pine
for your
pine tree

yes licking
not but a
knot

where the
sap spills
out and

where my
tongue in
mouth

takes in
it all so
say

thank 
you

Sap, Turned To Amber

Kiss
hidden
in secret.
Locked forever,
shining leaves caught in sap turned to amber:
a golden love held in rings betrothed.
In unison,
palm to palm,
fingers
touch.

(Painting 1, 30th August)

Premium Member Poet Tree Sap

meaning must rise as
sap in a tree too blossom
and leave what we see

as unhindered word
spaces between leaf faces
where meaning climbs past

as life's sap waters
an inevitable cure 
against final fall

Premium Member sue is such a sap

Sue’s nine-year-old husky Blue wanted to drive
she laughed and said “not while I’m alive!”
The next time I saw them, he was in her lap.
Driving her Caddy; she said “I am such a sap!”
Her children have all bested her in many ways too.
A really weak sister is my neighbor Sue.

Sap Programmer, Lead Or Pi

Me doing programming
Being a part of a wonderful team… 

Knowing, not snoring 
During the meetings…

During discussions about the sky
Which is above us…

About its azure
Bright blue in color in cloudless skies…

(Now read slowly)
Sun shining brightly 
Intervening with slumber.

Premium Member The Nap Sap

(this has happened a few times to me when 
trying to sleep out on my deck in the sun!)

I longed to nap
and laid me down right here.
Then peacefully I closed my eyes
and drifted off round “sheep one-hundred-four.”

But what a sap!
When sleep came very near,
my body jolted; with surprise
I wakened from the sound of my own snore.

Sap..

Tip your wing to the deep blue sky
your free to roam your free to fly,
Feel the wind upon your face
gliding free in the open space,
Soar above and be our guide
for knowing you holds no stronger pride,
No braver spirit no brighter eyes
in the night we'll watch the skies,
We'll sing for you a native prayer
feel a breeze and know your there,
Watch over us as we would you
for the lives you touched are touched so true.

Sunlight leaking

Sunlight leaking through every tree of girth 
White tree sap dripping onto the earth
Feeding insects scurrying with no fright 
This sap of life that gives our eyes sight
Gives us shadows to dance in praise till night 

Breaking through the web of branches impermanent 
A shining sap beyond the blue firmament 
That our forebears tasted every day with eyes bright 
A sap spread across our spinning world in plight 
Wrapping our world in sunlight beyond the great height
