Dust lingers where blossoms once bloomed
Remnants of warmth fade into wind
Yesterday’s green curls into gold

Juniper

Just an evergreen
Using its sheen,
Notably seen
In a pattern pristine, 
Presenting a keen,
Earthy fragrance clean,
Releasing into air serene.

Monocrostic (Birthday of Joan Salundaguit)

Aim For Dark

I’m looking to reach a new level
I cannot simply look in the open
I must journey under the hull
For treasures live under the sun
God’s finest work is often done in the dark
Reeling in discomfort I feel its spark
Leaving sight for faith I dare
I cross another nightmare
Wishing I could just rally but all I smell is defeat
Just before I kamikaze the prize falls at my feet
