Spring
...Spring has sprung
Songbirds echoing calls
Welcoming the new season
Warmth and growing buds
Snow melted briskly

Soon green will flood
A carpet of ambience
Fresh and clean ...

Crimson
...At morning’s wake
The sun expands
Life luster to
All the lands
Trees and plants
Creatures as well
Absorb the warmth
From where rays fell
Crimson beauty
Up in the sky
Far be it to judge

Configured in kisses and celestial caresses,
A saga-rhapsody we inscribe in flights of love,
Upon this stringless harp called Love.

Orange ball of flame
Floating stringless in
The sky of blue and white
Unlike nothing else

Of utter bountiful
Heat and glory

It Snowed a Little Last Night

Sleepless I listen,
a muted winter magnifies
the slightest sound.
Snow falling,
snow walking over snow,
snow speaking -
wordless
as it plays a stringless harp.
Whispers of peace and dea...

Years ago, I enjoyed a younger life
Now my strings are being cut by an age-old k...

Cancer
...A scorpion in a crab's garb!
Has stung into my body cells;
Poisoning my joy's inner orb,
Has dug into me deep death wells…
Bitter emptiness in me shrouds,
Like dark eclipses in the Space;

Adieu November
...A cold hard rain soaks the tree
denudes its flailing branches
stamps a season's exclamation point
on the edge of approaching frost.
Leafs flutter - stringless kites adrift
floating on a mindle...

October sets the stage for ghostly goblins – frost on pumpkins;
Black cats yowl on top of fences arching, upstage the moonlight;
Floating apparitions of wraiths soliloquies i...

Dear Self,

you complete me
patched the breach in the circle
showed me the mental math
of the angles of life

before I'm ready to think
When the heart jumps

I began talking to winds in strange languages.
Since bayonets had been replaced by rapist-soldiers,
I started building tin-nests on tall branches.

Vent-Riloquist

reside the voices of discontent
discussing in their troubled tones
the conundrum of implied intent
