Premium MemberAN IVORATING THOUGHT

AN INVIGORATING THOUGHT

Like blades of rooted grass mowed,
And as rooted trees with naked branches,
We too, will survive and birth new generations:-
New generations…weathering and overcoming
The oppressive nature of human nature’s bigotry:-
Generations are in the nature of time and creation, 
And like time’s creation, are destined to keep coming;
Thus, rooted here today, let us continue to plow the way:
Sowing and reaping rows of justice, equity, and democracy:-

                                                                  Fruit like green oranges,
                                                           Small leaf-shedding thorny tree,
                                                                    And sticky wood pulp.

                                                                     No one eats Osage.
                                                          No one tastes these hedge apples.
                                                              The thorns make barbed wire.

SEASONALLY READY: AHAIKU TRIO

Seasons of nature
Are as the nature of life;
Always challenging:-

Each season weathers,
Claiming its own uniqueness;
Just as do our lives:-

Live seasonally:
No matter which season comes,
Live triumphantly:-

Premium MemberSILENT SOULS WANDERING

Today is as quiet 
As a crowded graveyard
Empty of life:-
Yet, the green of nature,
Shines in springing glory:-

As a brief breeze
Warmly passes by,
Silence retains its control
And all remains calm:-

Yes, life’s reality
Has its blissful moments;
Leaving wearying chaos asunder
As God caresses
Silent wandering souls:-

Premium MemberMore To Her There Than Meets the Eye

More to her there than meets the eye
    a hint of bare shoulder, a near-glimpse of thigh
  
  Her golden hair wrapped in a kerchief
    Tempting tongue flickers 'tween lips
  Her voice like a sweet nightingale
    mates with a whippoorwill's deep in the vale

  She moves like a breeze o'er tall grasses
    Her shadow ahead of her form
  Her fragrance as fresh as the meadow   
    whence her virginal beauty was born

  More to her there than meets the eye
    Admirers take notice and sigh

Premium MemberSharp As a Marble

With a mind sharp as a marble
Words roll off my tongue as garble.
My clean shaved head is like a globe
Serpentine tattooed, lobe to lobe
With yellow, brown and strings of blue
Of understated pastel hues
Waxed smoother than a scratched eight-ball
Like a brain coral, all in all.
What is outside is not within
Sharp as a marble crown to chin.

Premium MemberA Tree Is Like a Blank Book

A tree is like a blank book
that nature writes her seasons on 
In Winter black branches woebegone
With snow and ice and brazen rook

A tree is like a blank book 
Which spring soon paints in pink chiffon
As if at a signal — to act upon
Not one blossom will overlook

A tree is like a blank book
And summer the season of sweet bygone
And tongue in cheek, writes, green as a lawn
Cool tangle of leaves and meadowbrook.

A tree is like a blank book
Where autumn leaves warm tones adorn
In her golden shroud the year withdrawn
Until nature gives back all she took.

a metaphor is a simile you don't like ---------- it is not in my nature to write senryus ————— baby tries on boots without crying, eschews fits

Premium MemberSnowed In

Flaky snow just keeps falling;
As if I had been lonely and sad.
Did nature feel as if I was bawling?
Flaky snow just kept falling;
Surely, for snow, I was not calling—
Now my body sits here, cold and mad.
Flaky snow just keeps falling
As if I had been lonely and sad.

both have tender nerves 
the old man tells the pale leaf ~
both nervous at fall

Premium MemberObservation

The pin oak and silver maple trees
In the woodland across the way
Shift like shutters in the breeze,
I love to sit and watch them sway.

Glacier! Icy, cold, hard. Diamond-like, it chisels the frosty landscape.
