lao shiNovember 29 Windows aboundIn the dawn's faint light
Swirling windows dodge my head
Two wide open are near my bed
I awake to the sound of the crows
As the first window takes it's place
Messages from the second buzz in my face
i can see seasons turn and do their thing
Voices from Cathy seem to sing
What window do I choose
Will I take a win or lose June 23 Phases in the skyOn a brisk autumn's eve
Frozen leaves crunch beneath the feet
Chilly breath ascends upward
Illuminated by the friendly light
Flickering happily in the darkness
Stars by the thousand shine bright
The crescent moon then appears
Just a sliver for now
So sleek and trim
No craters are to behold
Each night begins anew
Growing larger at each sight
I follow your course with delight
Glorious full you have become
When the night turns into the day
February 22 A Christmas WishChritmas lights are long since gone
Leaves have abandoned the trees afar
Their brilliant colors buried under the snow
Eight days in the coming year
The sun hangs higher still in the sky
Linger around a little longer friend
Drive winter back into the sea
Promises of spring are around the bend
You will fade and leave from my eye
I treasure your return with dawns surprise August 08 A Saturdays walkThe city streets seem like a zoo
So I pass by the city zoo
Crossing a new found bridge
I glance down to waters below
Noticing a leaf taking a ride
Wish I could hitchhike by your side
Passing to road ahead
I follow my friend along the river bend
Twisting and turning but moving along
A little town appears beyond
I stroll it's quaint little tofu street
Then hang around for just a peek
My companion calls me from the shore
Take your journey to the seventh floor August 02 The Endless TideTreading in the sea of tears
The accumulation of four years
I am just a floating whim
For tide and the wind
Running full circle for lands end
Then back to the beginning again
Lighthouse beacon faintly calls me out
The journey is just starting to send
Typhoons step aside in my wake
Persistence heart never breaks August 01 The Fairy CaveThe Fairy cave calls out
To my inner hidden needs Entering the Temple again The walls close in around me
Narrowing the passage way still
I have to crawl like a snake
Pursuing the speedy and nimble hare
To the source of the light On my knees at the altar I look for hope and happiness The sticks make a promise and speak Return to the world with faith Snow SquallThe bare and naked trees
Beckon to the sky, from below
The frozen brown earth awaits
For it's warm blanket of white
Silently and quite softly
The winter show begins
Clouds gather and touch
Sending crystals of white
Quite solitary at first
The heaven now sends a deluge of flakes
Zigzagging in their own hypnotic way
So dazzling and often electric
Falling to complete the mission below
Closing my eyes to the sky
Reaching arms outward and beyond
I feel a crisp and cold object touching my face
Sending shivering chills down my spine
I calmly wait for my fate
The shock doesn't last long
As we both melt in the torrid sun |
