while sun shines.
Garden  . . .  glistens
with fragile raindrops pooling and dripping.

Premium MemberFireworks On Victoria Weekend

When  it is the long weekend for the fireworks 
The fireworks begins when the sky is darken
Some people gather in parks to watch fireworks 
 Others just watch fireworks from their homes
It last till the early morn
When people try to sleep
Noise on pets
They are scared
Whining 
Scared

She's lost
No more threats
Slammed the door shut

Premium MemberThe Scarecrow Speaks

I
saw a
tattered dark
useless scarecrow, 
in a large wheat field, where all flying birds
seemed to enjoy, resting on tattered arms.
Except children
who seemed to

But
once at 
night, I thought
I saw it move,
scared the guts out of my soul as I screamed.
”What are you screaming for, you wake the birds.”
Did I hear right?
I felt fear,
I ran
fast.
