Summer
late arrival
cooler than usual
sun timidly peeking through clouds
soon gone...

I am trailing,
Teetering timidly
In your footsteps
That prove too big 
For me to ever fill....

as our fingers timidly dance
i’ll fall under your trance
our hearts begin to prance
but we couldn’t stand a chance...

Early stars 
timidly wink
through leafy boughs,

twinkling 
twilight secrets
only the Beloved knows,

kept, hummed 
by the evening breeze
as it softly blows....

Never the less,
But more and more done, unless
Something in itself to timidly parches
Living without life is an empty rub
Is a dry brush to grab
the lovely wet bub....

Twitch, twitch - noses in constant action
Hop, pause, hop - bodies in flight preparation
Stand, timidly posed - awaiting in anticipation
Sniff, nuzzle - bunnies interacting with trepidation...

While fate is always churning and blazing. 

Prophecy is constantly blooming peacefully.

We timidly volunteer to understand. 

How to create new sprouts-

On the trailing path through forever....

As I timidly stare at her
She pulls on my strings and knots them,
Making my smile permanent.
My words then come out tongue tied,
Though my desire is as sure
As her beauty.

Pretty little daylily, 

so gay, so bright...

why do you timidly close

all your colorful petals
                                                    
to hide in the darkness

of the brooding night?...

earth shadow
dim path wake
to loss quake

timidly its
quietness deep
infinite voice
appears restless

nesting birds await
conceal, motionless
safely perched between
aspen leaves as cold
breezes lace a web

Sequestered secret
Timidly testing
Ambitious actions
Infinite immortals
Regal royals
Wishful wonder
Anxious ardor
Youthful you

Time to
Open oracles

That test
Hopeful humanity
Eternally eager

So strength
Tries the
Ardent admiring
Rebels wresting
Shining stars...

Stars

                            Flickered

                             Timidly 

                         Before setting 

                                Sun!

Once, 

In age’s avenue, 

Life I met and she was 

Sublime,

Wished, questions about her future plans for 

Me to ask, 

Timidly I her approached, 

But disturbed, she said: 

“The plans for you were done, even before 

my own time!”

The rains speak to me
Let the torrents wash along
Questions unasked
Sometimes
The words of the Old Man ring
Constant
Let the mountains speak
Let the winds howl
Timidly, I lap at waters
Tamed savages sip savagely from behind
Cages made of glass
Etiquettes and bestiality
Woven into
Golden urns
Whose contents are black ashes!...

Grace loves not timid
When coming from hard sections
Living alongside peaceful
Arguments, timid
The world view keeps the water
Down to heartfelt realms under
Below the timid
Prospective leanings project
Grown aspects of love implied
Timidly, alone
She doesn’t know the real truth
Like the wind, harbors the hope

Like those last
luscious faintly
enfeebled breaths
bitterly breaking
through my
limply lifting lungs .
Fervently flooding
my tear filled
eyes. Tenderly
tottering into
those timidly
tight-lipped times .
Who wistfully
whispers
their coolly
cut cards of
kindred conversations.
Carefully kindling
their heart-crossed
corners of compassion....

Time is only
 a continuous 
mocking mirror
 that forever
reflects 
back to when 
your feebleminded 
feet timidly took those 
first noble steps 
down that
 illustrious isle 
towards intimacy .
But then your mind 
murmurs back into the 
pitiful present realms of reality.
Leaving you
 to cower
 and cry 
still wondering 
where the time went by ....

I taught my son to shave today
Whiskers only he can see
The reflection in the mirror was
A yesteryear one of me

So serious and timidly
Careful with every move
He rinsed away the remaining suds
And again his face was smooth

I taught my son to shave today
With a solidly steady hand
He walked in my bathroom a little boy
And walked out a proud young man...

Stark against the skyline
On a pinnacle he stands,
Tranquility and peace divine,
In the domain he commands.

Leaping and bounding ever free,
And humbly we try to follow,
When approached he shies timidly,
And runs to the rest in the hollow.

Always proving his superiority
While moving so gracefully too,
Humans only have authority 
To appreciate the view....

Crepuscular is waning afternoon,
in lapis lazuli does day respire.
The seashore chimes its solitary rune
as tentative the lapping waves acquire
the briny echo of a mermaid's lyre.
Though timidly does surf caress the beach
in mirrored shades of night as they conspire,
brave wisps of comets in the untold reach
of space diffuse and pluck my heart into the breach....

Whisper my name like a song,
Let me know where I belong.
On your lips, with breathlessness,
On my heart print happiness.
When my eyelids flutter closed,
All of me to you exposed,
When you watch me timidly
When you think that I don’t see,
When I drop my gaze and blush,
When my heart beats in a rush,
Call my name and hold my gaze,
With shyness that your eye betrays...

It teases and torments
Flirting behind pillows
Luring you with siren song

When you timidly approach
It flies to dark corners
Whispering its sweet words

Desperate and longing
You search wildly for it
Hoping to ensnare it

Finally you give in
Realizing it’s a tormentor
Fooling you into belief

Another night it will succumb
You will blissfully own it
Dreaming at last…peacefully...

You told me that you loved me 

that day.

You had said so before,

but not often,

and timidly,

as though you feared the words

and the weight that they can carry.

So hearing them said, then,

loudly and surely, 

then,  

roused such joy, need, hope,

and disappointment

and the certainty that they were to be

the last things you and I would share....

over the growing,spreading ever green scape,
rising timidly through stratum's of scandal.
hell's guardian observe's the picket line of karma.
he feel's condemned by the twin's,liberty and freedom.

on a road of cavernous step's and stone's.
near a swamp with bullfrog's as big as battleship's.
hell's guardian shower's in shame.
the great contortionist export's his own justice....
