One more day passes,
Human life is very short,
Resembling grasses
That know the summer season,
Withering in winter wind.

withering blossom
once epitomised beauty
fondly remembered
look beyond its sad demise
and know it will bloom again

we were withering seedlings perched in unfavorable soil
until we escaped the comfort zone
and scattered beyond
now the wind calls us dandelions

withering upon fate’s hour

A day less night
A night less day
Withering heights
Endless valleys
Wishing soon a well
For a spirit spell
To bring me a love
Of endless joy.

Venomous thoughts are
Like a poison ivy plant
That poison your soul
Withering you slowly as
A flower in a desert

singing birds early dawn
sinking moon sulk up rising
sun warms up the shores
sands drift release the embrace warm
sweet night withering sweat trickle

I do not know?
Tainted souls and Twisted minds
Unfair world.
Vicious trolls win the polls
Withering honor that once stood strong
Yet Hope persists to right the wrong.

withering leaf
cascades on its thin ribs...
draped by pearled mist

both, the ripening fruit and the withering leaf
at the ordained time fall off from the tree
former in fulfilment, latter in decay
which oh hermit, will we be

Everything comes to an end
flowers wither and die
leaves wither from trees
falling to the ground
our bodies wither with age
and find their resting place

Medicate me
But only until I dream
of this expansion.
Without your guard up
I cannot predict Silent
Consequences.
Trite,
Feeble
and Withering.
I stand up
to pause.

Intense heat and humidity of July’s yellow eyes.
Still, I see mellow leaves, falling from the trees, withering.
Nearly naked, both the skin and the bark, age in season.

The life of crying,
Loss harmful flames to my eyes,
The bloodshot eyes bursting out,
Withering soul, without love,
Dwindling out of control,
The life of a burning soul.

What we know,
Have no hold
Although it seems..
Truth be told
Weary souls
Emotions grow
Knowledge gained
Nonchalantly tamed
Overjoyed thoughts deploy
Withering sway in dismay..

today
we don't think
therefore we are not
descartes is dead and gone
machines and computers work and think for us
our minds are shrinking, withering and decaying from lack of exercise

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 !

Every human is a baby of a kind
Baby conceived is, a promissory note,
The one just born, an overdraft,
Adult baby, a bouncing check.
Old baby, a withering flower
Which one is perfect baby?

THE ROSE
Lustrous, regal, symbolic, a crown
Withering, drying, petals fall down
Held between fragile fingers
The perfume of the rose lingers

In this summer month of her what would have been her 21st birthday,
I see bed of withering red orange tiger lilies and say,
"Your death reddened you, yellow flower, into an orange, then red."

Life, as it were, is withering away,
Like the stars dimming, like pedals falling,
Thee is like a travisty of the mind,
A ponder thee in the sea of madness
Will life end, only to begin again?

Flowers were seen covering the tree yesterday,
Today they have fallen into the pond in decay.
The hard blow of the east wind is not to blame,
Blooming and withering are naturally the same.
