*** The crows ***



“Right here,
- In these
Cold lands
Of snow,
Dull steps
Led me
To watch
Old trees
I miss –

*** Root ***

Here, the crows
Catch dreams
Out of
Each noise:
Gray, brown
- Torn branch,
In a
Slant fall
Of nuts; -

*** Root ***

But they, –
- These dark,
Drab ghouls
Which seems
To grab
In their
Harsh claws
My thoughts,
Were gone – ”

I thought I found someone special in you,
But all you are is just untrue.
I demand a lot from my man, I do,
But I give it back tenfold, cos I am true.

Hard to know who lost out here,
Hopefully you cos you didn't care.
But dwelling on loss, I cannot do,
So now my heart must move on to new. ??

*** Truce ***



“Snails come
To feast –
Right here,
In the green,
Deep world
Of the grass;
- Have some
Dew juice,
At least!.. –

*** Root ***

From the east,
So keen,
Comes near –
This shy,
Sweet lass;
- Tell me
A story,
I have
No worry; -

*** Root ***

This rock
- Ticks fast,
While in
The new heart
A spree
Pour out
- In sluice
Of thoughts,
A truce – ”

*** My eyes ***



“My eyes
Have seen
This world:
In dark,
In light,
With cold,
With warmth,
When shades,
When clear; –

*** Root ***

My eyes
Though knew:
A joy,
A tear,
In strength,
- Or weak,
In times
Of youth,
- Or old;

*** Root ***

My eyes,
- Thus close
A while;
To taste
A bit
Of Life,
- For death
Is near
My grave – ”

*** This branch ***



“This tree
Has found
My song; –
Though hid,
Thy nest,
In each
Old branch; -
Bud folds
New leaves; –

*** Root ***

It looks
So stiff, –
As if
My sight
Has lost
- In thoughts;
But light
Keeps tight
Calm rays; –

*** Root ***

My eyes,
- Brown sparks
Of life,
Search deep:
Who lives,
Or dies?!
- This tree,
My branch,
Old leaves – ”

Twenty two years ago on September 11th
3,000 shining new stars dotted the Heavens
Did these 3,000 souls die in vain
Did their families hopelessly suffer the pain

To see our Nation now so divided
Why couldn’t we have stayed solidly United
We should take pause and remember everyday
The great sacrifice those who served have paid

So that we can continue to live our lives freely
From past, present and future oppression and tyranny
I was so proud of my Country that day
I wish we could be united the same way today

We are all Americans who united as one
Are invincible and indivisible with the help of God and His Son
We need to turn to Him and ask for His grace
To truly make us the United States!

We should remember our great loss 22 years ago today
And let us always continue to pray
That our great Nation will be united together
And God to Bless our Country’s future forever!

*** The more ***



“The more
I climb
These cliffs
Of life,
The more
I find
All gifts
In strife
Of time; –

*** Root ***

The more
I see
My sins
And fall,
The more
- In loss,
Or wins,
A call
For Thee; –

*** Root ***

The more
- While weak,
Or strong,
I pray,
The more
I know
- If good
Or wrong,
My way – ”

*** A line in sand ***



“How is,
O, child,
To draw
A line
In sand?
For thine
- Such land,
While mine,
This quiz; –

*** Root ***

He smiled;
- Though none
But his,
The shore
I walk,
- A sigh
Long gone,
Thou one
Must talk; –

*** Root ***

Yet, raw,
Lime stones,
Sea choirs,
In waves,
They wash; –
Brown crabs
- Seems now
Back home
To rush – ”

*** Just a leaf ***



“In fall,
Cold wind
Blows fast,
Then slow –
I call
A leaf;
- The trees
Look thinned,
And crawl; –

*** Root ***

Pale moon
- Thus glide
Through stones
With musk; –
My heart,
A leaf;
So soon,
To ask
- Of these; –

*** Root ***

But while
Owls came
To watch
Such bride
Of night
I miss,
- This leaf
Hath slept
In wept – ”

*** Each new born ***



“Each
New born
Comes to life
In a cry,
- What is
To learn,
- What is
To teach?
Live or die; –

*** Root ***

Each
New born
Ask to know
What Love is; –
- One say
It’s war,
- One say
It’s peace,
- Hers or his; –

*** Root ***

Each
New born
Then must reach
- To a grave:
Where was
One’s joy,
- Where was
One’s grief?
Here is the speech – ”
