Once summer green
then Autumn gold
bedecked this ancient tree-
Today silhouette laid bare
misletoed in winter frieze.

into the blue

Summer Sun

The splendor of summer sunshine,
bathe me in your warmth,
deep, deep, down to my soul,
for it is love, that you bestow.

Writer

When will it rain?
Rush to the river
Igloos forming
Throughout summer
Enter the main stage
Remain there and reminisce

Din of a Jinn

"din of a jinn"


feeding to fuel itself on fossils
the beast in the basement
has awakened from
it's summer
slumber

Green fall now
The sky throwing scenes
Day to break

Sunset waters glow
Day is light to tread
Summer thoughts remain
