The blotted ink of sky engulfs my dream
While nightfall's soot and fog darken the shore,
And I , a tattered leaf, tremble midstream
Infecting my solace much like before.
Dreary this roam, this dreary roam so cold
Attended by a willow tree's limp veil;
Like ghastly air with sordid woes untold
Of slumber deepening... its tomb, my nail.
And in a haze, snow circles tainted blue
As forceful winds begin their groan, one howl
My tassels unraveling to imbue
This cry for life paling as woods befoul.
Yet, branches of hope , they rain down on me,
For spring redeems ...bright as eternity.
A single leaf, adrift on windswept air,
Descends from boughs where summer held its sway,
A vibrant hue, now tinged with autumn's care,
It dances down, to greet the fading day.
It whispers tales of sunlit, leafy green,
Of gentle showers and the robin's song,
A silent witness to the woodland scene,
Where ancient roots have held for ages long.
Now soft it rests upon the mossy ground,
A humble shroud for seasons past and gone,
Yet in its stillness, beauty can be found,
A quiet end, till spring begins anon.
So, let us watch this fragile, falling leaf,
That like human life spins for short while brief.
A soul that's hungry and never well-fed,
is always searching for something much greater,
a great love whose meaning is ne'er misread,
or destiny whose time arrives much later.
In God and thee I find a hopeful fate,
a future that restores a quiet grace,
and moments in time's endless, flowing state;
where I embrace your beauty's radiant face.
But if the heavens and the stars above,
and all the world were drowned in seas of gloom,
my lines still live forever in thee, my love,
beyond end of days, beyond even doom!
If love transcends all seasons and all times,
then your spring lives on in all of my rhymes.
When luck and fortune flee from my own soul,
and then disaster overwhelms my hope,
and hunger consumes the meal in my bowl,
and poverty and debt hinder my scope,
then I wish myself more rich in spirit,
in wisdom and character more complete,
with God's forgiveness now to inherit,
and grace in place of ruin and defeat.
But I reflect on our time spent together,
that spring we made love under a domed sky
(those happy days seemed to live on forever).
Despair now gone, I sing and let joy fly.
As you now live on in my sonnet's measure,
may all men find in you time's endless treasure.
In seas of early green where sunshine gleams
And Central Texas winds it's rugged ways,
Our bluebonnets bloom from quiet dreams
And paint the Spring in rich, recurring rays.
They bend before a harshly shining sun
Yet seldom yield to drought or chilling cold;
When winter's bitter northern blasts are done
Their royal blue bright petals will unfold.
So, too, the hearts that claim this sacred land
Beat firm and true as troubling tempests blow.
In proud fealty the steadfast people stand,
United by the hallowed bonds they know.
No bitter storm can make their honor yield;
They stay as true as blossoms in the field.
“I thought that spring must last forevermore, for I
was young and loved, and it was May.” Vera Brittain
Oh, springtime of my life, if only I
had taken time to revel more in it -
absorb its colors like a butterfly;
consume it like a big banana split.
For nothing can compare to one’s spring days -
with everything so fresh; romance so sweet.
Such memories that in mind still blaze!
If only I had known life was so fleet.
If I could go back to those days of May,
reliving them without the least unease
no matter if the skies were clear or gray,
I’d ride each hour – a bird upon a breeze!
Good health, the thrills, and all that I adore
from youth I yearn to keep forevermore.
When fall comes the perennials change, then die
Usually, a frost comes then the tops turn brown
All seems lost for soon even the ground seems gone
Frozen, hard, some even three feet apply
When a farmer drops a seed in the soil,
And earth warms after nice spring rain comes down
That seed will be drawn to come forth one dawn
For it's design by God, devil won't foil
It pushes on
finis'
As raindrops drip from Hostas' long blossoms
The gentle breeze lightly its stem kisses
The clouds gather to give us rain, awesome
Moisture, on these thoughts, my mind reminisces
Lavender blooms show oregano's beauty
Harmonizing Mexican Petunia's shade
Flamboyant color purple dancing cutie
Artistic colorful scene seen in their glade
Spring and summer with colors that delight
Beauty comes to an end; fall offers its own
Pomegranate's red skin, fruit, chaotic bite
Harvest of apples, winter squash, pumpkins grown
Reveal to me, each stage has beauties' offering
Love each stage with joyful praise, life altering

A silent grace sits on the silvered hair,
Lengthening the seasons to drawn out days,
Not only breath glitters in life’s deep stare,
But also treading through the world’s cold maze.
The tender spring blooms will soon surely fade,
And summer heat will in a while cool down,
But wisdom mustered in the serene shade
Will proliferate the world`s knowledge crown.
True longevity resides not in breath,
But in wise words that we share as a sage,
An age-long heritage that defeats death,
A shining spirit stretching beyond age.
Years are but the reflection of our pace,
While legacy lasts across time and space.
sweet spring awakens earth from winter sleep
with bold shouts of color playfully laid
on flowers, chirping birds and butterflies~
for you the elder willows will still weep,
and here in softness of the springtime glade
our nature's own dear Mother will advise
those who come with heavy heart’s hopeless pleas,
those whose love of life has been sudden frayed
by winter's last cold storm in human guise~
now you may take ease
storms have made you wise.
May’s blossom on the bush was my delight.
Her birth came soonest of all the flowers’.
When was it that she first beheld sun’s light?
Did it fall on her in dawn’s first hours?
I wonder how she felt when sudden rain
fell, pounding her before her blossoming,
and did she know how short would be her reign
once she’d emerged to greet the world in spring?
An unexpected snowfall came one day
before her sister roses could join her.
How strange it was to have that freeze in May.
I could almost hear it – her silent brrr -
as she – poor, frozen blossom in the snow -
no more would feel her rosy life force flow.
When winter blows a chill and freezing breeze.
Stripping the blushes from the autumn rose.
A flower awaits in silence and pleads.
Now cold and encased in white icy woes.
Her gentle petals dressed in softest hue;
Held tight within a harsh crystalline grasp.
Perfect jewel twinkling with morning dew.
A love that the season cannot unmask.
She waits patiently for spring to appear.
Cold on the outside but alive within.
Listening to each song she longs to hear.
Content to bloom her fragrant life again.
My love waits faithfully for Spring to show.
Frigidly wrapped up in winter's white glow.
A squirrel who once was all-day hustle-run
discovered spring had hung a swing nearby.
He eyed it first as something strange and fun,
then hopped aboard to give the breeze a try.
The branches rocked him in a gentle arc,
a cradle made of sunlight, leaves, and ease.
He closed his eyes, forgetting he was stark
addicted to the rush of busy trees.
Soon all his twitchy habits slipped away~
the frantic stash, the darting here and there.
He let the swing decide the pace of the day,
a mellow rhythm floating through the air.
And now he’s learned what wiser creatures know:
Sometimes, you simply sway and let life slow.
The wind displace those strands of braid unbound,
And bid a note of thanks for silent mind.
A chirp of birds from up the new spring ground,
Depicts beneath; a cozy worm, joy-blind.
I pray be free of hunting bird’s cold beak,
For I, as I do know am of that deep,
Dark world I did believe so dull and bleak.
Beg break the curse of all their cursing sleep.
Yet raised by loving wing-ed mum of air,
To rise with dawn and steal the breath of day,
I cannot stop from cursing at my hair,
And tell it ‘you are getting in my way’.
Yet I must stop the curse, for it is clear,
It is the silent earth that I hold dear.
With invisible ink you have written
your name upon me like a spring flourish
of flowers budding anew each morning
to remind love is a fragrant ribbon
binding together the ones we cherish,
and thus you have never left me yearning.
You are a thread writing the tapestry
of beauty that life will softly burnish
as love flows and is endlessly warming
our hearts, world and infinite galaxy~
forever transforming.
