the wind blows
my umbrella away–
raindrops in my eyes
the wind blows
my umbrella away–
raindrops in my eyes
a gilded gliding
lily white, gossamer light~~
snowflake confetti
tumbling down gently
pristine delicate crystals~~
sedate, coquettish
a virgin embrace
enveloping the landscape~~
a silver garnish
snowy haiku
facing east:::
spicy Thai curry
teary eyes
Fragrant blossoms perfume the trees
Filling the air with redolence
Birds chirping endless resonance.
Silver dew shines on flowers, leaves
Butterflies on their morning jaunt
Fluttering colorful wings flaunt.
Morning serenade by the bees
Nuzzling blooms for their sweet nectar
The queen bee’s honey collector.
Leaves rustled by a gentle breeze
Cloudless sky vaulting green meadows
Lambs grazing in peaceful shadows.
Dropping slowly into the eaves
Dry leaves and twigs, the sparrows find
A nest, a home they weave and bind.
Fragrant blossoms perfume the trees
Silver dew shines on flowers, leaves
Morning serenade by the bees
Leaves rustled by a gentle breeze
Dropping slowly into the eaves
my life…..it is not endless like the sea…
I wonder …..how long I will live ?
swallow the pain
nothing to gain
not worth your grain
to nurse grudges in vain
let the heart forget, forgive
you will sense lightness, relief
to let sadness go
make happines within grow
you have to part with an unforgiving heart
else to heaven will not depart
‘cos to err is human
to forgive divine
no man is above god
if god can forgive
why cannot man?
tonight the moon bleeds
in an ebony sky::::::
a cereus blooms
clumsy feet, tripping, stumbling, ailment dyspraxia
brain bright but poor coordination of body reflexes
clear the hurdle in the mind, that’s the greatest handicap.

Dawn breaks over the eastern sky
Flocks of birds beginning to fly.
To the stars and the moon a goodbye.
All nocturnal life on standby
Till the sun sets again on the horizon.
Dawn breaks over the eastern sky.
Out of slumber,light comes to pacify.
Night shadows retreating,disappearing
To the stars and the moon a goodbye.
Chirping on my window sill ,a magpie
Cuckoo cooing,sparrows looking for twigs
Dawn breaks over the eastern sky.
Nature in its force,the creator to glorify
Spring is in the air,wind stirring the trees
To the stars and the moon a goodbye
The sun seems to blaze down,electrify
Heat and light,life to multiply
Dawn breaks over the eastern sky
To the stars and the moon a goodbye.
