SOME HAIKU ~ OTHERS NOT
Spring Leans On Summer
As She Cleans Her Toes Of Mud
Winter Dreams of Her
exchanging patterns of infinite presence
as seasonal change of the minds which observe
sketch hours shared in meadows blessed green
it just happens
there has rarely been a more
perfect time to live
perfect time to die
joyful time to give
significant time to cry
profound desire to be
living each moment free
wisely embracing this incongruity
Flow
a river gathers heat
aroma sends the message
I taste your skin ~ so sweet
two bodies painted dark
satiate as one
a sacred sort of sustenance
has truly just begun
radiant vessels turn to ember
our skin proffers the chocolate essence
it mingles with the love we share
resplendent in luminescence
blissfully homeward, drifting from above
to be snuggled in the cradle where the Creator first
gazed
into the infant eyes of love
there is an AIR about my late spring
birth
and roots do run deep when i touch
the EARTH
the sun feeds me heat, kindling
desire
passion so immense, i know there
is FIRE
wind upon WATER can cuddle the
tides
and whisper with warmth where our
softness collides
a breeze is the silent, surreptitious
tool
which ripples still waters of the
feminine pool
lazy. lounging. lingering in the
mellow,
yellow sunlight
an illuminated essence dazzles
the brook side life
a flowered blouse lies open in
the breeze
tall grasses where we lay tease
the child within her
long, free of care hair that mates
wind like a kite
carries me back to another time
where Paris forever remains last
spring
and reverie reveals the sidewalk
cafe
from which passers paused to try
her colors on canvas
enigmatic magic smiles on her soul
with breath of poets and the shade
of Monet
the warm afternoon foolish to measure
lingers as such for those she is
near
her musical laughter is easily shared
and her joyful presence is in knowing
God cared.
