Love’s reflection- we are whole
Cast beneath your frothy heart
Take heed the rocks and shallows
Kiss with painted lips
Titillations in the shallows.
All of life's! Before a wave.
Edging which twin immanancies
Of head's, heart's diving brave.
Ducks dive upside down
Searching olive green shallows
For grubs escaping

Tanka 9 – Salty & Sweet
confidences shared
imaginings on the air
whispering magic
salty words & sweet red wine
fill the shallows of our mouths
life shadows
like a river
which shallows
thanks to the giver
forever shall be praise
footprints are accompanied by his
for his name shall be raise
Though suffering shadows
my memory never shallows
my husband past memory follows
As his body swallows
through the earth, his house gallows
And forever as widows
bohemian indulgence
monk mode renunciation
both wishing to be elsewhere
away from the here and now
are caught in egoic glue
wallowing in shallows

great blue heron glides
from its silent perch 'pon limb....
fishing in shallows
how I enjoyed watching him
take pictures~ store memories

Frolicking in the shallows
Marveling at the sights

Will sailors be scuttling ships.'
If the US navy; gets in a real fix?
In the great gulf of a war
with rockets in short store
Hulls in shallows, like half showing bricks'
Unto ones self winters never bore
Summers never die and wants are never achieved
Tis not the highest peak nor darkest valley that emplore
But the shallows and ridges near shore
Make a wish
to summon
the fish to crowd
around so he'll
be found.
I'll always see
his little shape
in the shallows
of the lake,
forever to bathe
in his Betta
baptismal
grave.
whispered rumours of the true things
drown in shallows of ego's hubbub
NOTE
The philosopher Walter Benjamin's comment on Kafka's writin was the inspiration for this
poem
infant twilight suspends noise
around quiescent waters
stars glint nocturnal shallows
frog chants reverberate

It's almost impossible to show,
The shadows of:
Blue
White
Yellow
& more..
Of diamonds' shines
When the reader is a shallow blind one
Thinks a writer is a gaga seller of pieces of glasses
Form:
small fish in shallows
large fish found in deepest depths
few and far between

Beautiful God
hope to see you soon
everything is beautiful
I see not the shallows form
for you know I'm blind
My God Joy, My hope
I see not the shallows form -

my shallows
my
shallows
swallows
theres depths
dripping them
in
my
pools
breath
breathing
more than
time has left
ban me there
ban me here
words
don't
care
in
the
hollows
of
my
shallows
?
Day to day,
I watch you floundering,
Like a fish out of water.
The human and the mermaid.
Afraid of drowning,
He calls from his little island,
As the sea beckons.
Offering it's spoils
Torn,
You sit in the shallows.
We wallow in the shallows –
In muck that clings contingent,
and as it sucks us into its depths,
we slosh mud onto each other
How have we sunk so?
Come with me to shore.
We did so aeons before,
and we can do again.
a divine sight once beheld
was by memory recalled
by our ego thus seeking
the influx of grace was stalled
why wallow in the shallows
when the ocean calls to soul
be still oh worthy hermit
that God’s touch may make us whole
The world was my darkness
The soot in my blackened sights
I once cried in shallows
Words entomed within my grave
Dug with smiles merrit of fading sorrows
My final morrows led by fate
Towards the rejoicing of tomorrow.

I will not wade with you in ocean shallows
Love must run far deeper than a shoal
Having enough passion to make me blind
A love rivaling the grandest of hallows
Heal my heart and make it whole
Drown me in fervid depths of your mind
Cerulean soft shallows glide
like lotic lullabies; gentle,
hushed. Juniper hills undulate
breezy slopes, tucked tender Autumn,
where turgid pastels drift perpetual
atop the sleepless river - surface deep.
