The Poetree Tree
Autumn:
Words fall
Like Autumn leaves
Now jaded, but no longer jade
But a tapestry
Of 'rusty' colours
Of a myriad fading shades
Winter:
The fallen leaves
Now brown, and rotten
Crushed underfoot
And soon forgotten
As naked trees
Neon shades lost
Bare arms reaching out
For her missing children
Spring:
The cold dark bleakness of winter
Is soon replaced
As the golden glow
Of the sun
Begins to warm
As nature is reborn
The tree has new children ...
Words fall
Like Autumn leaves
Now jaded, but no longer jade
But a tapestry
Of 'rusty' colours
Of a myriad fading shades
Winter:
The fallen leaves
Now brown, and rotten
Crushed underfoot
And soon forgotten
As naked trees
Neon shades lost
Bare arms reaching out
For her missing children
Spring:
The cold dark bleakness of winter
Is soon replaced
As the golden glow
Of the sun
Begins to warm
As nature is reborn
The tree has new children ...

Emerald Eyes of Flame
Halfway thru my rotation, I saw her. And time, for me, came to a stop. As it always does in the presence of Nyema Devine.
She looked as stunning as I remembered her being. Dressed much differently than our first encounter. Timeless in her unique, elegant way. Unchanged as only a goddess could be, yet looking both similar to and different from it in equal parts.
Honored and awed, I studied her. Her form. Her features. Her body language. Purposely, I avoided her intense, emerald-green eyes.
Knowing the import of her appearing in this public place, and aware...

Skirts of Nature
The skirts of nature
looking into the eyes
of the forestal woods
sing to me Autumn
Revealing the beauty
of it's soul pipes
lifting the wetness
of my fears
looking into the eyes
of the forestal woods
sing to me Autumn
Revealing the beauty
of it's soul pipes
lifting the wetness
of my fears

lost cause
that tree
standing
off by
itself,
dying alone,
lonely,
no passion
left to
keep it
alive,
no tender
touch
to remind
it to
breathe.

The Honeyed Quest in haiku
Whispers on the breeze
a meadow’s heart starts fading,
nectar crown grows dim.
Golden fields tremble,
petals bow to coming drought,
bees hum tales of fear.
Small Melis takes flight,
a spark against looming dusk,
her heart pure as light.
Through the grand forest’s shade,
ants hoard crystals sharp as glass
she gifts royal gold.
Sap glows soft and sweet,
they share a feast, unity
woven in their dance.
The lilies’ mirror,
rippling fears in darkened waves
“Small, yet I am strong.” ...

The Garden of My All Inclusive Domain
Little demons play hide and seek
beneath leaves and flowers and petals
Lilies and daffodils throw tiny stones
playing keep away from garden gnomes
My domain now suffers the aftermath
as flowers lay bent, breathing in gasps
And sad little imps seek ambulances
hoping the wait's not too long
at the treatment center for mischief's mischances
To live within this garden is more than it seems
surrounded by the magic of soil, imps, and growing things
with tendrils of green seeping into dreams
we have...
beneath leaves and flowers and petals
Lilies and daffodils throw tiny stones
playing keep away from garden gnomes
My domain now suffers the aftermath
as flowers lay bent, breathing in gasps
And sad little imps seek ambulances
hoping the wait's not too long
at the treatment center for mischief's mischances
To live within this garden is more than it seems
surrounded by the magic of soil, imps, and growing things
with tendrils of green seeping into dreams
we have...

Sunset Horizon
Drop me into salmon skies
Sail me through the midnight blue
Soft the bright horizon sighs
Peaceful I’ll return to you
When the dusk fades into black
With crescent moon & falling star
Waiting, patient love comes back
Circling worlds to where you are
Sail me through the midnight blue
Soft the bright horizon sighs
Peaceful I’ll return to you
When the dusk fades into black
With crescent moon & falling star
Waiting, patient love comes back
Circling worlds to where you are

Walk with Me
Walk with me
through these heathery hills
to the music in the breeze
and laughter in the rills,
walk with me.
Walk with me
to where the water falls
willingly willingly
to the bosom of the earth,
we shall join the sudden squalls
over this heathery sea,
walk with me.
Walk with me
in shelter of my coat
my fine warm coat, see
it covers you, toes to throat,
you shall not stumble
on this rocky road,
Walk with me
Walk with me...
through these heathery hills
to the music in the breeze
and laughter in the rills,
walk with me.
Walk with me
to where the water falls
willingly willingly
to the bosom of the earth,
we shall join the sudden squalls
over this heathery sea,
walk with me.
Walk with me
in shelter of my coat
my fine warm coat, see
it covers you, toes to throat,
you shall not stumble
on this rocky road,
Walk with me
Walk with me...

The Owl perched on the Giraffe's head.
The owl, silent and wise,
observes the world with attentive eyes.
Its soft feathers
its serene flight soothes the soul.
The giraffe is tall and very majestic.
The owl brings with it the charm of the night,
flying without making a sound,
teaching patience and the art of observation.
Its presence inspires reflection and serenity.
Is a silent keeper of the secrets of the night,
a companion who shares the wisdom
of the stars and the mystery of the shadows.
The giraffe, on the other hand,
offers an elevated...
observes the world with attentive eyes.
Its soft feathers
its serene flight soothes the soul.
The giraffe is tall and very majestic.
The owl brings with it the charm of the night,
flying without making a sound,
teaching patience and the art of observation.
Its presence inspires reflection and serenity.
Is a silent keeper of the secrets of the night,

my eyes (little windows)
my eyes,
little windows,
i can
see the
entire
body of
beautiful
attachments,
thoughts
right to
my desires,
the world
outside
modestly
shining.

Nature's Clarity
Gossamer tears of woodwinds and strings
archives of soul on wings echoing serenity
soft as magic of eternal Spring in noiseless
psalms sweet as cane in nature's philosophy
of symphony and musical clarity on "Sticky
Notes" salted with moonlit snow

all of the signals
i watch
all of
the signals
the hours
give, no
sadness,
no tangled
strange
ideas,
how subtle
when each
new day
arrives.
