6am and falling rain
bed! how cosy you feel
this morning
wobbly legs misstep
toddler tumbles to the floor
screaming with fright
lonesome nightingale
serenades the airwaves
searching for his soul mate
mantis catches butterfly
I am very sad; yet, that is
the way of nature
motorcycle roars
penetrating the night
shattering the silence
on the waterfront
ocean liner calling her flock
- the loud blaring horn

Italian lover
My tongue licks you all over
You're like sweet clover

Longing paradise
I rubbed sand in my long hair
Leaping in the air

monkey
and think of things that might've been
I noticed the monkey may have the key
but that is better than green.

Sun heats the body
Rising bringing higher heat
The village now sleeps

Jagged hills i climb
Sparing me from the grasped world
Peaking thru the clouds

As earthquakes rumble
expand to split the surface
lives engulfed by loss
Tsunami washes
the earth’s crust while salty tears
seep into the core
Hearts shaken, broken
lovely lives drowned, buried, as
seasons’ sun radiates.
Still underneath skin
hope courses veins, awaiting.
Spring, where is thy bloom?
