Spring
An idyllic warmth. The come of a brand New Year, Spring embraces us.
Autumn Golden, leafy rain, Sing the come of Fall, While Nature sings hums the tune.
Seasons (Haius) Winter
Summer
Snowflaes fall lightly, Jac Frost has paid a visit, cy Winter days.
A Time to rejoice, Flowers coat the once bare ground, Summer breas here too.
Coloured Sky Blinding yet beautiful I jump, falling through clouds Time is never – ending. Blue touches the sky, the green sea below, Whizz! Ecstatic as I fall. Birds fly overhead, Falling like a comet, down, down. I touch down as night Takes over.
Falling from the Sky (Twelve line poem)
Haunted Horizon (Free verse)
A vast terrain of darkened navy desk A turquoise wall, not a single white mark Sodden and bare, dominating and dark.
One lightbulb comes down, not pour or grotesque, But calming, there is something above the Earth White as snow, soft as a feathered dove. Pebbles litter the table, thoughts of the world Piled together, like a big barren slide. My bed fights for space with the navy table, Like the water and hay in a damp, dark stable. Fog coats the room like a trip from winter A mess of clothes to clean up – wait, time for dinner!
