Everyday

words to celebrate

everyday is amazing,

white pink orchids bloom

~0~0

a maple leaf buds 

on this grey winter morning,     

every day is spring    

  

~0~0

 

the leaf falls today,

like everyday, but I see

blue butterfly wings

~ My favorite poetry form is couplet ~

I am fragile glass

in summer storm

I am torn wing

in autumn wind

I am folded page

in winter snow

I am blushing pink

in spring's ardent arms

I am everyday

beautiful in your eyes.

Gate to Spring

open gate to spring,

throw out the sunflower seeds,

grey pigeons hover

grey pigeons hover

 muddy stones and barren wells, 

winter frost melting  

winter frost melting

locked windows and bolted doors,

open gate to spring

Broken

empty cup, gnawing 

rumbling stomach, hands dirty

black volcanic ash 

~0~0

dirty brown cardboard, 

chair, bed and table, pieces  

broken furniture

Lost boys

young lost boys
unloved, forgotten,
black tattoo


~0~0  


calls of hate,

needles of venom,

dead peacock

~0~0

cult of love,

winds of forgiveness,

redemption

Air of spring

tiny leaf uncurls, 
soft as a baby's pink hand, 
bark of chestnut oak 
           

~0~0


bark of chestnut oak,
touch of green bud, bold as red
ripe plums on table



~0~0



ripe plums on table, 
beside pink wax flower blooms, 
buzzing yellow bee 


~0~0


buzzing yellow bee, 
garden bed of white snowdrops, 
tiny leaf uncurls

Dream Walk

run towards the moon,
with your dreams curled in your tongue, 
brave as white stallion 


~0~0


we dreamwalk through life,
a caterpillar on leaf,   
unfold your wings, fly

Joy of giving

giving the last coin

from torn and dirty pockets,
a turtle dove sings  

a turtle dove sings
above old house, melody
sweet as red cheeries 

sweet as red cheeries
are kind words from poor widow,
giving the last coin

To dance

foot pointing outward,
chin facing crowd, bold as sun
rising from the clouds


~0~0

arms curling in step, 

straight as her back, she pauses

arrow poised to fly

Dedication

her gentle hands, touch

children, the sick and dying,

bold dedication

~0~0

her calming words, strong

call to love and forgiveness,

my rosary beads

~0~0

lifting hearts to God,

limbs to carry the weak, strong

as coast redwood tree 

Written for Few Miles Haiku Challenge 2012 for the month of February:   Day 21- Dedication
