Gathering Clouds in Moonlight (haiku)

Grey mountain of sky
Eating valiant silver ships
Wild drunk on moon blood

Mountain (haiku)

Like a fish bone knife
Patiently gutting stray clouds
For silver lining.

PLACES TO BE - St. Basil's Cathedral, Russia

This monument escaped destruction
Of Soviet's battles and revolution,
Like a church in Disney's fairytale
With bright rounded candles in the air,
Looking glorious, no melancholy trail
Hopes are strong, faith prevail.

Resembling tulip bulbs in the sky
Or intricate balloons ready to fly,
These cupola crowns reaching heaven
Do you think Russia is forgiven?
Opening turbulent, gloomy wars
With repeated sufferings and scars,
Tough harmony under the stars!

PLACES TO BE - Amsterdam

Amsterdam, enthralling
With those canals curling
Concentric art displays
Streets follow the waterways.

Softly, curiosity arouses
Pretty, slim narrow houses
Leaning homes, close together
Are stronger, holding each other
Like saying "unity is power"!

PLACES TO BE - Easter Island

On this spot, explorers arrived in Easter
Found carved stones from volcanic crater,
Giant figures shadow the island,
As if starkly saying, this is our land.
Our cruise ship made things so inviting
Free rubber boat rides were waiting
But this isolated park's not so seducing
Monolithic massive statues, not smiling
They look unhappy, grim a barren silence
Old Father Time darkened their patience!

My Quiet Summer Dream

I dreamed this dream once
Staring into a still pond
My thoughts mere reflections
And bouncing up were images

Like a mirror laying on the grass
Was fruit ripening in beautiful trees
And those long lines of fuzzy cattails
Standing all around like tall sentries

Then I saw all twenty of them
Perfectly angled sun rays making
A briiliant halo around the sunrise
Greens and blues and yellows

Mixing everything else brown
Until at last I saw a fish jump
And I awakened when its ripples
Reached the all quiet shoreline

The universe doth spin

Dreams of kings and courtiers
before the heavens
circular does the sun course
on its axis the universe doth spin

There's a moon in my window
I hear crows of vanity
from an early morning c*ck
should I sleep or rise?

Oh but I rest!
indifferent to your nature
O Universe,
'tis true
I pass the days
in trivialities
while you hold
magnificence
in your hand
and down through the ages
visionaries and sages
I see
sunrises for strangers
travel as you will
fair waifs and strays

Nature's Song

as I skim the treetops
gazing all around
birds on nearby branches
joyfully sing their song

looking upwards on high
never ceases to astound
white clouds on a blue sky
looming in the background

glancing downwards
my vision contacts the ground
where water in a nearby stream
gently flows along

leaves that fell from the trees
have all turned to brown
dotting the green grass
growing on the ground

among the fallen leaves
some wildflowers abound
painting a lovely picture
leaving me spellbound

Weeding In The Garden

I am happy just kneeling here
On this warm bare ground
Scrunched down on my knees
Pulling weeds all around

No one comes to bother me
Nor do they interrupt my task
Not even a busy wandering bee
Looking for directions might ask

Other people leave me alone
A little wave -- a passing smile
Not even a ringing phone
Can be heard for a country mile

I shall stay ’til work is done
Or 'til the dinner bells echo
Waiting for the setting sun
Changes into reds from yellow

I am happy just kneeling here
On this warm bare ground
Scrunched down on my knees
Pulling weeds all around

About this poem:
The lovely task of pulling weeds and just enjoying solitude. Nobody will bother you or try and take your job away. It is blessedly peaceful and mindfulness all wrapped in one.

Petrichor

Lightning striking
thunder roars
and oh the rain!
how it did pour
then afterwards the petrichor
the sweet scented smell of a summer storm...

Man it rained hard a couple days ago...

Love that after smell...
