Many rose petals floating downstream on a gleaming river
They move so slowly, almost getting lost in the sun's white glare
The monks on the riverbank seem lost in idle reverie
Jules
Buoyant
Inspired
Sylph in his eyes
Lost in the fog where restive hearts reside
Will she surrender her passionate flame?
It's all he wants
To be named
Whispered
Craved.

Knarled tree hanging on by the sea
Fighting or surviving a tet-a-te
No! Just being, resting, in the wind
Stronger than the lighthouse built by man
(God be with you til we meet again.)

You,
It's you,
Always has been,
Maybe always will be,
Every other thought is you,
I can't even escape with dreams,
Will it ever be over,
This torture you bring,
Leaving only pain,
All because,
You.

Little
Beauties dart
About seeking
Nectar from nature's colorful flowers
Catch
A glimpse
Of them when
They perch, then off
They go, hovering in iridescent glow

Love
Will come
Love will go
And hearts will break
But hearts will mend and love will come again
Years will pass and hair will turn to silver
And hearts will smile
Having loved -
Loving
Still

Waves
and spume
tickles toes
as I paddle
on the shore ... reliving my childhood days
Sweet memories come flooding back to me
a tiny tot
having fun
in the
sea

Jays
wheel by
in tandem ,
a sky parade
roller coasting above verdant grassland.
As harbingers of enchanted autumn
birdnotes usher
crisp morning--
red plumes
flung!

I
dance with
the ocean
jumping blue waves -
soaking in its stretch of sun-drenched beauty
When the sun sinks low, I dine with the sky
as I devour
dusk's hues and
imbibe
peace.

A Taste
In This Life
Of What Awaits
Streams of Consciousness Slowly Leaving Earth
Returning Whence We Came -- To Our Maker
Our Primal Source
Of Life and
Of Love

Smile
On your
Crystal face
Moonbeam ripples
Set dulcet rhythm of dance in my heart beat.
I travelled a long way drenched in moon dust
With lost gem’s glint
I now walk
The last
Mile.

Gourmand - TET
Sight
Smells Good
Tastes good too
Let me touch it
My four senses all like the beef jerky
My fifth sense hears the complaints of my choice
What do I care
it's sole food
old shoes
choose

shine
on, my
brightest star-
my gold stardust...
for you’re the wonder that holds the sky up
your kindness outweighs all the world’s riches
crave my tame touch
quench my thirst-
you're my...
home.

wild
monsoon
drizzled love
long years ago
perfume of petrichor spilled all over....
an old photograph falls out of the book
one tear drop sheds
your thoughts flood
boundless
dreams.

Condemned
nice
house had
christmas trees
and children sounds
asking, “Ma, is it time to come in now?”
oh how we stretched forth here and became grown
voices are still
haunting now
glory
gone
once
favored
domicile
all move in new
what fools destroyed your beauty day by day?

Snow
Falling
Creating
A white carpet
That dazzles us with its sheer brilliance
Spring arrives and the carpet is no more
Buds now appear
Birds singing
Flowers
Bloom.

Lost unto a Gin spin
The blood grows thin
To the beckoning
Of a morning hangover of regret
And reading the tet a tet
Of slurring rambling
The pre-amble
Shall read
Here lies the afterbirth
Of the Man Child Boy
Who writes until the morning
Comes to fetch what is left
Of the night before
Bore the brunt of self loathing
In Emperor's cloaking
SMILE OF SUNFLOWER TET
Shy
soft sweet
silent smile
of sunflower
seeing so dazzling shiny Sun glistening.
Flowers loved and bathed by sunbeam showers
in opulence
turns smart head
to face
Sun.

Joy
Has turned
To sorrow
When you left me
Love no longer lives in my heart, it died
Grief, loneliness and sadness comforts me
Why did you leave?
I miss you
Darling
Bye

Golden leaves upon the pear trees
No fruit to ripen though
Spring's frost killed it all in the bud
Always hope for next year's to grow
The air is damp and cool again
Charcoal gray clouds move in
There's a tet-a-tee between fall
And winter to begin
We never know about the seasons
It's unsure just like life
Which can zap us with unreason
Or blessings flow without strife
Dark
Dismal
Bitter cold
Winter season
A time to hibernate, relax and rest
A time for rejuvenation, rebirth
Springtime season
Warmth returns
Joyful
Bright

Trump Thoroughly Upset
Starting this one from scratch.
Trump is upset and has made us upset;
Seems to fool around and always fret;
Injured in shade,
By a grenade,
Was in offensive he thinks they call Tet.
He even lied about this. What spurs him on
amazes me and I have many bones to pick
with him. Have heard he has Vietnam Vet
on his license plate as of late. Oh, and he
is offensive in many ways these days.
