dried leaves bloom within the clay

Black like the night,
he soars and tumbles,
an acrobat in flight.
Keen is his sight, and he’s
a playful mimic.
This bird is bright!

Skill kisses the sand,
a game with the ocean floor;
Each move confident;
The sea tumbles with shells,
High tide reveals a check mate.

Winter Shine

A rippling light beam tumbles, intriguingly 
Dreaming in coppered intensity 
And swirling loudly in glit·ter·y 
Whilst winter cavorts playfully


Tied Hands

unable to grasp
 get ahold of things
 often slipping thru
 falling
 a one time chance
 quick, catch hold
 losing grip
 tumbles further
 shatters below

Eruption of words 
Spills on furious spark of night
Entanglement unsettled-

Dawn tumbles on edge
A falling of union breaks
From hardened hearts of stone.

The high melt waters rush
Feeding springs annual event
As over the ancient rock
Water tumbles effervescent
As it heads inexorably to the sea
In its headlong descent

as plane soars through tall towers
lives taken too soon

all this for power
yet caught up in their own greed
we all suffer to

If she say,she is an angel she humbles
When her hair waves my heart tumbles
When she talks,the heaven rumbles
When she talks,the earth crumbles
When seeing her,mytongue fumbles

The Mouse with the Hat

The mouse jumped
Off the fire hydrant
His hat flies up
Into the distance
He munches some cheese
Spits on the floor
Makes a split
Tumbles over
Laughs in peels
Waves goodbye

Premium Member The Blues

Withering of life bit by bit,
A skinny man tumbles with hunger,
Poverty , a blue !

Burning off obesity bit by bit,
Treadmill to a man's excess,
Richness , a blue !

Premium Member Hanging Wash

Wind
sends out
a clever 
breeze, who finds us
at our schoolwork, near Mother's hanging wash

Snapping back the corners of clean white sheets,
it tumbles off
to tell her
what we
know
Form: Tetractys

Inattention

time and distance unwind
unmindful of a ticking clock
as
commitment tumbles through constant years
with ne’er a thought
that 
there exists another dimension
where all possibilities exist

Winter's Doorstep

Bleak
Gray day,
Biting breeze
Offers portent
And tumbles autumn’s harvest of sere leaves
To winter’s foreboding, icebound doorstep:
Stacked, stands cordwood,
Shovels wait,
First snow
Looms.

Haiku 3 - Frightened Toddler, Playful Puppy, Sniffing Dog

wobbly legs misstep
toddler tumbles to the floor
screaming with fright

playful puppy
spinning round and round
trying to catch its tail

dog sniffing the grass
searching for the perfect spot
to have a poop

Premium Member Contemplation

Listen to poem:
There is a love I cannot hide
It tumbles out
Like truth untied
A height no bird
Could wander there
A measured width
Of no compare
The deepest, strongest
Place inside
Is where, my love,
You do reside

My

My mind tosses in the turmoil
My mind tumbles from side to side
My expression is blank, 
they do not know
What I am going through or what I sow
It is my fault and so it is my agony
My thunderstorm and my lightning

Premium Member Never To Return

in huff of gray clouds

a ravaged kite disappears

losing speed mid-air


a string tumbles down from sky…

my lover never returns

Biasong Creek

Near our cogon hut 

          is a crystal-clear creek

          that joyfully splashes 

          and tumbles down rocks, 

          eager to quench the thirst

          of the parched plains

of our Mother Earth!

Premium Member The Race

Spring begins the chase
And quickly sets the pace.
Then Summer takes her place,
But stumbles and then tumbles into Fall
Who gamely picks up the baton
To carry on,
But loses face
When Winter sweeps right in
And wins the race.

Premium Member Poet Tree

A leaf that tumbles in the air
And drifts upon the ground.
A person who sighs and smiles
With eyes that speak no sound.
Poetry is rooted in the earth,
And flies upon the wind.
It is not a sonnet nor a verse,
It’s a feeling from within.
