Summer skin

pinterest.com


Still summer warms –
deny, neglect, -
a sweet cocoon
in chamber of my heart,
a letter/fluff
I swallow, ah,
lulled vigilance…
as if no other seasons
to long for,
so no reason to be sad…

Just raindrops
trembling on the edge of
brevity
the things, the words,
the days,
dissolving in the blink
of eye…

Alas, surmise,
we live with every breath
this paradise,
rewinding later
as a dream,
enchanted under autumn
brass…

Trapped verse

source here


Every verse feed
tend to hold
an idea in it,
the light
I collect for
future retreat;
these words
wild, unbrushed,
they screaming,
surrealistic,
scaffold
imperfect,
wrong partnered,
spilled
on the journal lined
field.
They demand
my return,
they require
ownership,
kneeling/bow
for the gift,
trapped in
the soul
longing
to serve…

Bathed...

hdwallpapers


The statue lolled…
wrathful fingers
ashamed not
to prance through
shattering
hearts…

I park
my thoughts
deep in the shady
alley,
drifting with
seagulls
on the edge
of tide,
dialing
ghosts
“why, why…
best of,
best of,
best of…”

Collection

wall321.com


In the midst of July stride
post dawn, but a chance
to climb the hill
embracing wind & sun,
the heat will come in
later, veiling the skin.

I’m breathing in
the mown lawn,
frogs prayer in the morn,
woodpecker’s Morse code,
and moan of every leave
outstretched under my feet.

I keep within collected sighs,
a grid to recall and complete
my path as another life or
god’s caprice…
when time is ripe
and tired shadows
rest under the trees…

Children games

Pieter Bruegel – 1560 – Children’s Games (Wikipedia)

The golden rings…
not worn out -
just lost the purpose,
disconnected chain
fell apart,
though
from one side of fence,
now serve
entertainment
dance
for those, not yet
familiar with
a cycle of life.

Agreement

Nicolas Carone, Shadow Dance, 2007



Under the quilts
Bones trembling
In sync

Crawled in heart
Cracked
Splintered doubts

Clay/grain escape
Shadows-crows
Open field fate…

Tipping points

Morning glory ~ photo by Kumiharu Shimizu


Morning glory
Your eye follows me
Even in dreams.

Even in dreams
I’ve tried to escape
To live/leave my best.

To live/leave my best
Perceiving a new voyage
Unknown territory.

Unknown territory
Submerged chessboard cell
Skipped on first turn.

Skipped on first turn
I look back to chances
Missing tipping points.

Missing tipping points
Wave brought to the shore
Artifacts.

Artifacts
God’s approval of love/life
Morning glory…

* * *

Morning glory
Your eye follows me
Even in dreams.

Even in dreams
We have plenty of time
From dawn to dusk…


Note: Inspired by Kumiharu Shimizu photo 'Morning glory' and the symbolic meaning of Morning glory.
