Marvellous month of May,
Maple trees flourishing,
Melodious warblers
Migrate back on the wing,
Morning Glory flowers
Mid-musk mellow abounds,
Merry dance around the pole....

Wrens
whisper
wistfully
wafting westward--
Wisp

Woods
welcome
white warblers--
weeds wakening
wings!

Wicked aged woman,
wreaking harm with cauldron,
warty nose, crafty eyes;
Wisdom sees through dark guise!
When riding purple broom,
wild crone cackles at moon.
Warblers on crimson skies....

haiku in autumn

finches, warblers, wrens
and kinglets sing season's songs--
hues of leaves amaze

It came sweetly upon midnight's breath,
that turned seasons from green to brown, 
and brought the pre-dawn warblers
to chirp a merry song...
nestled securely
on, around, and 
in-between
fall's brisk
breeze....

gold butterflies in noon fields
of sunflowers and daisies
greet black-eyed susan delight
yellow warblers sing

in the heart of hot summer
the song lives on forever
on the blooming paths of time
tales of summer love...

Once
dormant
seeds bloom in
white, red and pink
tulips with perfumed
primrose on a green quilt.
Basking in warmer weather,
warblers warble a sweet chorus,
perched on branches with fresh verdant leaves,
as nature revives its breath taking charm.

No one was aware of when
The surroundings were
Silent and slant

From near to far,
Mosquitoes were disappeared
Flies have gone,
And grasshoppers went

Looked up to the sky
Warblers were nowhere
Swallows were absent

Moved down to the tree
A few sparrows twitted
Where hid the old Sam?
They are full of curiosity...

rustlin' sounds abound
children hidin' but soon are found

great laughter and cheer everywhere
a quiet breeze gently caressing the atmosphere

sparrows, warblers, and wrens singin' less
dog days' zeal has waned, harvest soon I attest

beautiful yellows, reds, and browns a fallin'
soon 'Ole Man Jack' will be a-callin'...

Dewy visions of kaleidoscopic hue
Dazzling warblers of butterfly blue
Diamond dots of stellar aurora rain
Dancing along the rainbow lane
Daunting stardust glamour glows
Distinctive gems of bloom grow
Disarray of shades splendid seen
Design’s maze of magic land has been.

I'm coming! And the swaying root.
Midday peace, glowing in the dark.
This golden grain of grace bears fruit.
Just howls of insects are fixed lark.
Since the cheerful warblers won't hoot.

Precious raindrops tumble down
weaving nature's beaded gown

Lilting breezes stir the air
braiding Gaia's silver hair

Bees and warblers hum and sing
when the snow caps melt in spring

Diamond streamlets dance along
with their tinkling crystal song

Waterfalls in feathered white
cascade from their noble height

Winter's chains all fall away
leaving life to build the day...

poppies of all hues
bask in green and amber sun ~
yellow warblers sing

crepe petals flutter
at the edge of noon glory ~
bunnies hop 'til the twilight

grasshoppers in blooms
with butterflies and others ~
honeybees buzz loud

Fear arises when shadows invade the tall elms,
warblers went to rest...my robin refuses to sing; 
stillness's a wish for dreamers living out
a stupendous night!

Beauty's seen in the distant stars that flicker,
and astonished, I am overwhelmed with joy;
lovers seek silence when darkness brings  on
a stupendous night!

A floral parasol gave shade
to features sad, but finely drawn,
no laugh lines marked her sweet facade,
a countenance both pale and wan.
She glided by the garden wall
and shed a tear, a wistful sigh,
the blossoms bent as if in awe,
the warblers chirped in sympathy.
I yearned to take her arm, to find
the reason for her dire distress,
but modesty prevailed.
Consumed with unrequited love
my passion full curtailed....

COPLA SESENTA Y TRES: This Bad Guy World

The Enemy resides in us
Not by invitation nor by ruse:
Bad day Good night

Could lone Yang gather in surplus
The Yin put down to no good use:
Dark day Bright night

Could the Almighty fear Evil
Is he ONE opposed to the ONE:
Both indigenes

Garden warblers’ pure early trill
Deaf magpies shriek and rasp their tongue:
Mutable genes

In the fog, odyssey
A cheerful adventurer 
Free to be
In dampish autumn weather
Hikes into the hills 
Awesome and deep
Watching the leafage sweep
Whilst song birds spill
Into the alone to peep
The only other sound --the break
Of distant waves and warblers awake
The air is raw, with a cold whisper
Many miles to go before any sleep 
When sweet dreams come cheap
To a crusading journeyer 
Who has promises to keep...

A trio of warblers jargon
a madrigal in harmony.
Their polyphony awakens
a slumbering dawn from darkness
while white dewy daffodils, like
saintly daughters of charity,
bow before the paragon sun.
A gentle zephyr diffuses
its collection of fragrances
from the myriad wildflowers
it encountered on its journey
eastward; sojourning, perfuming,
impregnating the morning air
with its sweet, volatile essence....

Why does the bee covet the rose?
And dewdrops to petals cling
Cupid send loving arrows
And why do warblers sing?

Oh why will the moth fly to fire?
Give so dearly to mystery
To satisfy some blind desire
With his act of destiny

How can love bring me tears?
That a smile can wipe away
Your touch can calm my fears
In what your whispers say

You are the rose! it is you
So special you came to be
From the garden where you grew
And then you bloomed for me...

The Gods created music
so poets would not have to talk.
The dramatic or moody warblers
stood forth.
Now we had a sing-song mouth
for the scribes.

You’d think that both singers and writers
would be content to plaster the page and air
with these heaven-sent arts,
but
no,
poets sulked, grew sullen
their egos swollen to an eighth degree.

None could not be silent,
And so they invented ‘slam’ and ‘jam’
and every which way
to yells at us -
as if anyone gave a damn....
