Tea cup

light reflects table

wired by laptops, phones, music

cyberspace, twitterverse news sweep

the room in tidal waves

but for this corner

where

inside tea cup of

cherry and plum blooms,

hums a monk’s prayer

dwells a river

flowing with the wind  

pulsing with questions

with answers

I have yet to find

Hour

one hour

can move turtle slow,

ice melting 

~0~0

one hour

can speed like a train,

circus rides

~0~0

an hour  

writing poetry,

red blooms burst

Zest for new journeys

zest for new journeys

begins with seeding each day,

a verse, joyful thoughts

a verse, joyful thoughts

spread white wings on morning coast,

ready for new day 

ready for new day,

sun, wind, stormy days, grey clouds,

fly the horizon

fly the horizon

with keen eyes and eager hands, 

zest for new journeys

Temptation

beautiful petals

blooming bright as golden sun, 

i linger to hold

~0~0

field of sunflowers

waving banners and drum beats, 

i linger to dance

~0~0

the back of her knees,

creamy as white magnolias,

i linger to touch

Melody

guitar strings

missing in the street,

broken note   

~0~0

piano keys

untuned, grating nails,

empty room

~0~0

child's laughter,

concert melody,

sounds of joy

Kismet

to hold on

or let go to fly,

choice, not fate 

~0~0

last two leaves 

cling to branch, waiting  

howling wind   

~0~0

black or white,

kismet rolls the dice,  

ride the wave

Blush of Pink

white and pink petals

painting the sky in spring's blush,  

mesmerizing view

dainty as a rose,

steals my heart
