going through the wilderness
your only companion
is yourself
Goodbye Rambino
goodbye little friend
may the wings of angels
carry you to Heaven
the ground that you chased
leaves behind a mark
as green as the grass you ate
apples and carrots on a plate
a friend that you made
remembers you fondly
still searches for you
even though you are gone
Blackbird Family
the two of you together
in springtime
getting ready to build your nest
digging up worms
with your orange beaks
in the green garden
let the days pass by
and the clouds turn to stars
the night settles in
as lovers do
Black mamba
bin liner
black mamba
danger danger
who can tell
where he came from
this foreign creature
tortuous twisting shape
of a snake
moving in the grass
bin liner mamba
danger danger
don’t bite me
Fallen seagull
Fallen seagull
lying there on the ground
disheveled shape
made from a plastic bag
one day you’ll fly free
and be reborn
from the streets you call home
Down by the sea
Down by the sea
The serene tranquility
Seagulls fly over
As the skies change
And the wind blows
Often one knows
The surrounding meaning
Is what wonders are made of
Haiku Toads
spring is in the air
rain falls, then stops falling here.
toads mating outside
Haiku Plum Blossom
spring is in the air
now the bees have woken up
to the plum blossom
Thoughts 3
together we are a better part of ourselves
To the ends of the earth
when one sees
to the ends of the earth
what encompasses
has it’s worth
bring forth a new beginning
write down the meaning found
let the old ways pass
to be distributed around
make way for them
for they have seen the light
to banish darkness
that comes at night
through all that has been discovered
what has been revealed
to dream of each other
the reality is sealed
The Golden Tears
