Spring Sonnet
Spring Sonnet
The microscopic lifeforms in my soil
Sense the rising in degrees Celsius.
Old Summer’s red wiggler worms now uncoil,
While hungry birds look down most odious.
Most showers now done, the weeds envelope
The surviving herbs, flowers, plus veggies.

Ante-Meridian Verses on a Sleepless NightIn what to me now seems like ages
I've only read some sundry pages;

for I know it to...

Jews Harp Twangthere is something about
the simplistic shape of a conundrum
an ancient voice in modern mouth
in cartloads for the few to quell
where ice finding comfort in flames
many a throat bending breath
singing like electric birds of paradise

If I Could Go Back In TimeIf I could go back in time,
I wouldn't really change anything.
Changing things would be a crime,
perfection, that's how I'd describe everything.
I hate how we ended,
but I love that we happened....

A WordIn the midnight's hush, a word was whispered,
A message destined for the Mooli's own kin,
A task entrusted to the son's devoted heart,
To carry forth, to the one he loved from within.
Transformed, he became a modern-day...

Dark Fight With the MidtermMoving on into the night
I struggle with ideas,
Trying in desperation to fit words
To a subject I don't even understand
A train sounds its horn
A sound born of forlorn lament
A cry shorn of language
Torn between anguish and...

SkiingSwoosh, woosh, down an alpine slope my skis glide,
Kicking up mists of pristine, powdered snow.
Impassioned by an evergreen hillside,
In the breeze, my cheeks brisk with rosy glow.
Now, nestled between mountain peaks I ride,
Gazing, from the...

Merlin the Magic CatMerlin the cranky cat
sat around getting fat.
Wanting to be heard
he mewed and purred.
He yowled and howled
and even growled
all with the same result.
He felt it quite the insult.
He snarled and hissed
What had he missed?
He tried...

Conkers, BonkersOff us two went, beneath the trees,
that crackled and snappled
in Autumn’s crisp breeze,
our wellies slish-sloshing through the pelting rain,
plip-plopping, plip-plopping
again and again.
The thunder it rumbled,
and the wind it blew
but on and on,
the adventurers, two,
rustled through...

A Perpetual ForeverI am grateful for today and always:
No matter my future outcomes
Or what it holds for me.

I cannot live for a future
Tomorrow, it may never come
I can only live; for...

Train RideClickity clack, clickity clack
the sound keeps coming back
I remember the ride,
had time to bide,
as the train clattered along.
We swished and swirled further beyond
the burbling golden pond
than I had ever been,
affirmed my grin,
as the train whizzed...
