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

swing under a tree
the river flows on downstream
here lies good balance
A morning with birds
harvesting the light of day
life above the ground

flames for Africa
a hot girl in my chimney
move over Santa
send me an angel
send me an angel, right now,
right now, burns me up ... Real Life, remember that one?
Our love is custard
You're so white and I'm an egg
beat it, beat it, Uh! ... one for Michael.

Diverging roads
Virtual realities
Of traveling dreams
Ghosts gathered to play
The game of Russian roulette
No drama: all dead
The news from Ukraine
Feed on tragedy and pain
Rolling tanks crush peace

It seems senryu is taking over here temporarily. I thought I'd add a lighthearted attempt.

Fresh as a flower
Love that doesn’t fade with time

About this poem:
Experimenting a little more with Haiku (nature) versus Senryu (feelings) .....5-7-5 format. Using a very structured format when writing poetry often helps to create such creativity and emphasis on words denoting feelings......amazing how descriptive language becomes....like music almost following conventions.
