Honestly relate
feelings, firstly to the self
filter for others.

… 

Equanimity
unflappable — even pace
breathing into bumps.

 

Leap Yearning 02/29/2008

Leap yearning today
for release — oh, the torment!
Unrequited love.

… 

Leap into this day
charged with release
from a debt that never belonged.

… 

Discipline and rules
the taste of freedom –
how sour needs her sweet.

Freedom is never in doubt
question not the net cast out
come upon fences.

Bleeding 02/27/2008

Bleeding from within
nothing can be done to save –
death’s tide has waxed full.

Moontide…
cravings that lust
dreams of flesh
rising like poison.

A pregnant shadow
passes across  a full moon
our mother rolls by.

Holding time empty hands –
free hollow feathers link…
a passage unbroken

Playing for the sea
deep chanting dijeridu –
a seal barks farewell.

 

Raindrops 02/26/2008

Filed under: Haiku Inspired — Wind @ 4:05 pm

Raindrops shock

sleeping waters –

the surface pulses with ticklish circles.

I held a bible –

before words made sense…

lightening without thunder.

A Rake 02/24/2008

A rake in rough hands
reasoning with advanced rot
rigorous reaping.

Not even ground can
tame the swelling tide of doom
pulling at the loom.

Sweet little boy – still,
time has stood undernourished
manhood’s wasted taste.

 

Two Pathways 02/23/2008

Two pathways
moving in tandem create a road
for others to follow onward
or…
to lead them back –
home links us
together as a River.

 

Plump 02/21/2008

Not sticks –
plump pinkish
purple Earthworm twigs
psychedelic peristalsis
drenched in deep puddles
drumming softly –
splashes from the morning rain
precipitation plays percussion

A big troupe of Trumpeter Swans
flys overhead — practicing for the parade.

 

Irritated 02/18/2008

… 

Irritated smiles
tightening grip on dry lips
teeth crack a crescent.

 

Rapacious 02/18/2008

Rapacious ripple
unseen tsunami
what does wind expect?

Gliding as deer do –
through light rain and shy blue skies
Earthworm Citizens!

On their way eastward
called by a growing promise
Journey to Compost…

Honest 02/07/2008

Honest communion
beginning with compassion
truth will never end.

… 

No veils or pretense
this is me and what I want
honouring yourself.

… 

Let go of ego
breathing into right action
words thoughts and gestures.

… 

The tides all ways turn
no matter stops ebb and flow
adapt sure render.

… 

Shorebirds hunt between preening.

… 

Animals teach truth
learn to fit into a pack
Universal Mind.

Bee love creators
make flowers and fragrance bloom
nourish each other.

Winging mystery
follow the currents of change
adapt to the wind.

Young Eagle comes home
Spirit’s call is audible
even within walls.

Earthworm Citizens!
Your humble work has great worth
it’s rich soil you birth.
