Dance Tetractys Poems

dance
and song
all day long
still for moments
then roaming blooms and fuchsia midnight rooms
restless rapt wind rousing all to tango
in orange mists
of dawn or
scarlet
dusk...

dance 
of words
felt not heard
when souls entwine
and silence as sound, we swirl on cloud nine...

You
mirror 
my pain in
deep lines of dark

vaporise 
as I

Sunflowers like
Glowing Blooms
In fields

How on
My velvet
Nose a tiny
Butterfly sits and hisses my warm eyes.

In graceful pace, blue butterflies emerge
From nestle rest

Butterflies move

When the sun sinks low, I dine with the sky
as I devour
dusk's hues...

Moonbeam ripples
Set dulcet rhythm of dance in my heart beat.

I travelled a long way drenched in moon dust
With lost gem’s glint
I now...

Trees
Stand tall
Let their leaves
Reach to the sun
Repeating the dance of nature once more....

War
blood bath
tears cries woes
orphaned children
Deserted homes, bare fields without farmers.
Worth  of life lost, bullets  thirsty for  blood 
dead lay silent
eagles dance
brutal
End. 
Peace
