To ease the damage from love’s withdraw
Here’s a remedy I learned from Pa:
Use alcohol as your wrecking ball
10/9/11
Poetry is easy, life is hard,
And so the bravest bard
Begins to buckle with the weight of brutal years—
His singing disappears.
dusting stale portrait
graying visage from my past
gilds blithe memories
romance stilled in time capsule
shadows my jealous lover
The place began to settle
With birds calling the night canopy over
Hawked flights stilled to silence
Like the closing of blossoms.
increments of time
lorn on fate's hands
lie motionless
as if frozen
like one drop
of winter's rain
on the edge
of an icicle
restrained
A simple word –
Softly spoken,
Stilled my heart
Left me broken
A single breath –
Such destruction,
Instant death
One deduction
Goodbye.
Our playgrounds have faded
swings stilled, sandboxes unfilled
Where are the shovels and pails ~
replaced by profits and sales
leonard cohen sang
'there's a crack in everything
that's how light gets in'
mind is to be stilled
that morning mists dissipate
at dawning of light
A QUIET POND
Quiet living pond,
Teaming with its watered lives,
Sits in wet silence:
Ducks and the lily pad frogs,
In stilled pond contemplation:-
Winter coats proliferate,
the earth is stilled by snowflakes
slowly drifting, swirling, shifting,
sifting down, a whirling,
curling cloud of white confetti.

Winter coats proliferate,
the earth is stilled by snowflakes
slowly drifting, swirling, shifting,
sifting down, a whirling,
curling cloud of white confetti.
after the deluge
stilled cloud-shrouded land awakes. . .
flood of breaking day
Entered 4/15/2018 for MIck Talbot's Haiku no titles, theme NATURE Contest
Winter coats proliferate,
the earth is stilled by snowflakes
slowly drifting, swirling, shifting,
sifting down, a whirling,
curling cloud of white confetti.
the road lies straight ahead
no deviation
on my way home to you
my heart cannot be stilled
finally on its way

A STILLED POND
Once a wet playground,
A ducks' and frogs' Disneyland!
Now quiet and stilled:-
Winter is no friend to ponds;
freezing out their livelihoods:-
---------------------------------
sun caught in stained glass
goldfish glimmer through stilled waves
of brittle dark blue
---------------------------------
rose petals glimmer in summer
velvety smooth, fresh, and young
sprinkled with dewdrops, celebrate life-
till stilled by autumn's frost
Dawn has stilled
Edge layers yield
Yellow field
Stripping shield
Core revealed
Sunrise brew
Morning dew
Feelings skew
Healing blue
Day is new
6th January 2022
Winter coats proliferate,
the earth is stilled by snowflakes
slowly drifting, swirling, shifting,
sifting down, a whirling,
curling cloud of white confetti.
Words, once spoken,
Become as arrows escaping a Nimrod's bowstring.
Powerless to return to their quiver,
They remain forever in flight,
Until stilled by time or distance.
With Feelings Filled
With many feelings poem was filled;
God to you this poem was willed
Be thought of,
With much love;
Quiet at night and all was stilled.
