Jajosh Ongado Poem
Silently white snow falling
Covering the ground in a pristine blanket
Purest white, luminous in the night
Muffling the silence of the night
Into an even deeper reflection
Stillness not of the head, but of the soul.
I sit quiet and let the blank spaces fill me
Driving out the pain
Driving out the sadness
Driving out the regret
Filling my emptiness with cold solace
Slowly the snow stops
Night sky is revealed
An ebony quilt covered in dust-like jewels
Too numb to twinkle.
Dark trees reach winding limbs to catch the stars
No wind moves them ,
Or disturbs the spliced flakes
No wind cries in the night
No animal howls its loneliness,
No crying from my heart
I am filled with stillness.

Jajosh Ongado Poem
Birds gone astray
on whirlwind’s spray,
forlorn my way
down avenue
Then moonlight’s trace
sparks newborn grace--
as couples race
to feel bright dew.

the late wintry breeze
collects iced twigs and leaflets--

Jajosh Ongado Poem
I love the sound of distant thunder
it takes me back to a river’s shore.
Young kids sparkling of wonder
learning life and wanting more.
Swinging high above the water
from a rope tied to a tree.
Living joy for the moment
wild eyed and feeling free.
Roasting coal and burning mallows
spilling secrets in the dark,
about pretty little things
in our hearts that cast a spark.
Lying awake under the moonlight
Dreaming of a future ahead.
A wild cat meows in the distance
would make us squirm in our bed.
Sleeping warm until the morning.
Waking up by the river’s shore.
Young kids sparkling of wonder
learning life and wanting more

Jajosh Ongado Poem
Blinded by numbers
and rich possessions,
he compiles each gain
with eyes fixed on wealth
knowing not love’s touch--
how poor the merchant.
2.”Happiness doesn't lie in the objects
we gather around us. To find it,
all we need to do is open our eyes.”

Jajosh Ongado Poem
The fireplace rests for now
but embers still burn softly
waiting for a family to gather
in it's warmth--the laughter,
the musings, the prayers all said-
ready for others to share
evening's warmth and magic,
to tarry once again
for more lively life sounds
trailing in silence for life to renew
a ritual of gratitude and anticipation
on this fresh collage of night,
when the gloss of stars induces
a flame of readiness , of closure
in a time when the air is vulnerable
even for a while as affection cuddles
the ending of a cycle's hourglass.

Jajosh Ongado Poem
I follow the beat of your soft walk,
wanting to curl around a curve of hips
that sways in its innocent tenderness
like a flame of wonderment on my mind.
The sunset's ledge aligns your steps
While I in a haze needs to touch your revelry.
And how the air flows in fluid strokes
within your world strolling on meadow's light.
Come, spin me a dainty moonlit charm
weaving tapestry of a mellow song;
while the ripple of your twirled dips
awaits a symphony of a lifetime.
We may incline as one wavelet
where all moments strum night's wands
through interludes of harmony,
If only your breath will let me in.

RUSH
Green Lights
Minutes Gone
Dawn whisks in a flash
Lost among zooms of speed
Exiting from my blank life
“ This heart throbbing in empty beats.”

a restless wolf bellows loud ---
