subtle slovenly shape shifter
floating above
It steals my mind
and the world disappears
slowly changing
sneaking by
forming frothy bubbles
Candy floss fluff
A carving of mashed potato
Animals and faces

I spoke to the sleek sand in soft whispers, entrusted...

Dreaming of an island retreat
Aqua sky and scattered clouds,
with thriving palm trees growing:
a secluded, solitary tropical retreat,
where waves are ever flowing;
tranquility green and blue saturated.

The Doomed TornadoUp in long bands of gray and white
angry clouds are whirling,
fingers stretch downwards to the ground,
faint traces of swirling.
the farmer sees it and suspects
what nature is unfurling.
Glad at least it came in the day,

Morphing war midst armored skies

Soft Shade of Twilight
Honeyed amethyst is the soft shade of twilight
as it smoothly melds with sunset's prismed hues
Moonlight glints with the glow of a lustrous pearl
Stars gleam as multifaceted as crosscut diamonds
Celestial beauty reigns in the bejeweled night...
