Sunken Sailor

Tie one on
Yesterday I went to port
Today I'm going to court
I'm just a sad sailor
And I'm in jail
That's all I know

Summer Splendour

watching the sunrise

            sunken treasure

             comes to light

This poem is not 
a rhyme, yet words 

flow gracefully 
within. Amber light 

guides my soul to 
a sunken treasure!

Sloth

She sighs in her sweet doze.
Sunken into the sheets past noon,
The leaping sheep are her foes
And the cows that frolic the moon.

Daffodils

Wet dry daffodils
           Deeply rooted in water
           Sunken by full drought

A Haiku Duet

Black balloon bellies…
Sunken red orbs peering out:
Visions of hunger… 

Tables are sagging,
Loaded with spoiled surplus food:
Empty stomachs growl…

Rare Moments

There are in life some rare moments, which make the living worth it's price,
When talk is done directly by two pairs, two pairs in each other sunken eyes.

Assasin Reaper

Bespoke in suit so silken sharp
it cuts a path before him

With sunken eye's so black as opal

They steal one's soul on reflection

Whispering into a dead man ear

Misty Sunken Eyes

Out of the blue, noticed
The haunt of soulful eyes
Aging eyes with wrinkles
But the same vibe and charm
Sunken eyes grew misty
For sensing same ardour

Love Without Hope

Love without hope, just how I seem to live
Sunken won't float, but now I dream you give
A purpose to life, no longer on my own
I propose my wife, we're stronger than alone.

Subsequence, Part Ii

II

Sunken to the seafloor,
an ancient pearl-eyed maiden;
now and forever forgotten, is she
unreached even by the sunlight
descending indirectly
toward her parted lips.

Truth and justice are in sight
In the wake of two plane crashes
With of knowledge on her right
She rises from her sunken ashes

Moor

In the skull of the scuttle
she comes to me
between the stretches
of a sunken moor
it is not alone
those deep set eyes 
shall guide me
keeping safe
from an unwanted storm

Sunken Rose Garden

She sits surrounded
By the romance of roses.
Close to being great,
A lady, at last.

On the milky viranda,
Along the perrfume path,
Like the dew drenched flower,
Reposed and waiting.

No Man's Land

Stuck within struggle 
Lost within despair 
Holding onto faith
For courage will get you there 
Sunken in sorrow 
Pulling out your hair
The light is dim
Now is the time for fear

Do I Love You

When you asked me do
I love you, I
smiled and asked you what is love,
and how could I possibly offer it to anyone but you?

Sunken Cathedral

Unheard by those above
Muffled a tolling bell
Fathoms down
Calling the faithful

Welcome a congregation
The Tsunami dead
And Sailors dropping down

Sufficient

I do not expect you.
Sunken hours.
And the streets are rocking like slow guards.
I do not expect you.
The thought is sufficient. And long one …
For a Sunday.

A dream 
are dreaming
the birch’s
twigs.

She

A dry wind lifts
a damp fringe of
gray hair.

She is wrinkled,
her mouth sunken
over dentures.
She's as thin as dust
but glows
on the edge of her ruin.

The earth aches
to make love to her.

Sail

Sail through the veil,
Chasing a mermaid’s tail,
Along waves through troves
And rocky coves.

Sail through the veil,
Chasing a fairytale.
Seems I found the world of my dreams,
As my ship is sunken by oceanic seams.

Washing My Face

One day I will
Float up to Ziz
Its wings wisp
Soft like stray
Hairs in the sink
Hypnotize sunken
Whirlpool eyes
Until then I
Guess I choose
Sleep tonight
‘Til the day
Where true rest
Seems more than
Just alright
