December Roses
You were there in the middle of the roses,
like a dragon that doesn't speak any language,
as if a cat had eaten your tongue,
as if at all costs you wanted
to learn the language of flowers...
and all the roses smelled of blood
and all the air circulated in veins...
you were there in the middle
of the reddest of crimsons.
Not even the blue of your eyes
could compete with it.
Only the deep black of your dreams
had the nerve to disguise itself
as a thorn among so many roses.

Ancient as Hell
halberd, pan and brush
as in a typical garment
everything on the floor
made without function
function without effect
floor of little everything
clothing tied to threads
luxury, sword and bread
superspace lost in time
nebulae, galaxies, stars
preservative hyperboles
wise, those who are not

Disjointed Untitled Piece
Amber arches awake.
Bright blooms bask.
Curious colors call.
Dancing days drift.
Echoes embrace earth.
Feathers flutter free.
Golden glows gleam.
Hazy hues hum.
Illuminated iris ignites.
Joy jumps jubilant.
Kind kisses kindle.
Lush leaves lull.
Morning murmurs mild.
Nature nurtures nests.
Orange opens over.
Petals paint pathways.
Quiet quivers quicken.
Rustling radiance ripples.
Sunflowers soak sun.
Tender tendrils twist.
Undulating upward urge.

"~an epic in the making.."

an epic..
will you come & sing.. my breeze..
at this nascent dawning hours
of a newness flower in bloom..
this such pleasant now..
will it be embracing me..
a quizzical puzzle ..

of constellations and cosmos
celestial cinders casting
crystalline candescent confetti,
confessing their cravings for
carefree colourful cosmos-
whose corolla and calyx dancing
on choreography of the conjurers;
captivating the earthy constellations
with their colossal cerulean chaos;
cascading with a calm cadence
to caress those crusty creatures-
but
they already carry a covenant
to be the companions of earth...
a coveted chimerical chemistry
between the celestial and the carnal,
yet
cannot carve their
charismatic calligraphy

Eyes of the beholder
As there is still some beauty left in the world 🌎 there is still some people's heart, not change by the chaos and drama and confusion and madness. WHO take the time to admire the many flowers and inhale and exhale there beautiful scents. AS they stroll by the precious things in life. Just needing some gentle loving care and love and attention, to continue to grow and bloom in the fresh spring, weather of the coming of spring changing into a summer breeze as they bloom in the horizon sun 🌞 🪬 SHAMAN 🪬

Oh Happy Day
Oh sunny day welcomes me in
beautiful sunlit flowers smile up at me
while their tree guardians take note
the birds resting in their boughs
leaves rustling slightly
while their branches praise the blue
the sky reaches on forever
a home for the sun
The earth rotates lazily as the day progresses on
She is interactive, our mother
she gives as she receives
I notice that on days I'm stormy
and stomping out about the property
She will reach out and trip me
admonishing me to be kind
the energy I'm...

Weep the Flowers
tears flower on my face
blooming so beautifully out of place
a gentle smile beseeching them not to show
but their delicate nature draws attention to my hardened expressions
forlorn they grow wildly without nuture
sweet daisies of faith come from deep within me
A memory is all it takes to reduce me to nothing
babies' breath moves in its spot in the garden, grieving
exhaling the pain and inhaling something tender
Tiny epiphanies show in my eyes
my soul is disconnected from my mind
so when I weep, it is from my sacred heart...

Some berries and a giraffe's kiss
Let me take you to a divine place
where strawberries blush and interlace.
In the heart of the savannah they bloom
soft whispers of life in nature’s room.
The rain falls warm, like a lover's sigh.
A tender caress from a generous sky.
Its drops linger embracing the earth
feeding the fields where beauty finds birth.
The light, so cool, shimmers and plays,
casting shadows in intricate arrays.
A gentle balm to the heat’s embrace
illuminating dreams in this secret space.
Feel the pulse of the land, its steady...
where strawberries blush and interlace.
In the heart of the savannah they bloom
soft whispers of life in nature’s room.
The rain falls warm, like a lover's sigh.
A tender caress from a generous sky.
Its drops linger embracing the earth
feeding the fields where beauty finds birth.
The light, so cool, shimmers and plays,
casting shadows in intricate arrays.
A gentle balm to the heat’s embrace
illuminating dreams in this secret space.

Garden Flowers
Tulips can’t be roses
Daisies can’t be red
Though all are born in the soil
Of the dewy sun baked flower bed
Weathering the rain
And the heat of summer sun
Burning overhead
Together
Bright as can be
Reaching towards the sky
Freshening the air
One reaches higher
Yet the other is never outshined
Daisies can’t be red
Though all are born in the soil
Of the dewy sun baked flower bed
Weathering the rain
And the heat of summer sun
Burning overhead
Together
Bright as can be
Reaching towards the sky
Freshening the air
One reaches higher
Yet the other is never outshined

Aloe Vera
Those curved aloe vera branches
Were
Sexy
Moistened.
Thighs
To me,
Coming
In freckles.

still no signs of a stop .. roaring
bassy angered lions of the skies
in serial thunderstorms .. with shrilly
sudden attacking hasty insertions
now and then..
of an impudently cluster-clapping
lightnings of fluctuating whites ..
this spring rain
after so long
a heat spell
when had almost forgotten
of what rain is.. for months
now
drenching core ...
