Disillusion
Along sidewalk loners crave
A white butterfly flies in wonder
In peace safely surrenders
Coffee is in the air
Cobwebs drops on the hair
Confusion turns to disillusion!
□
August Stars
The sky is full of beauty
With August stars falling
Wishes fly in rows
End of Summer days
Calm surface of lake
Absorbs the twilight rays!
□
Display
Taste of morning tea
With dawn in delicate rays
Through icicles transparent
Artistry of snow
on display!
□
Gray
Looming laden clouds
Blanket the bustling streets
And storms paint the sky
Black skyscrapers scratch
At something beyond the gray!
□
Martyrdom
As white flakes drift down
Thousands of faces
Turning to the Sun
A minute’s silence
For martyrdom in vain
The wind also dies!
□
Forest Shudders
The forest shudders
Watching bear cubs
Walking through the glen
Hunting season has begun
Poachers prowling
The monsoon rain sweeps
Through trees tossing!
□
Unsafe
Wisteria bloom in waves
While she waits in a cafe
With wandering thoughts unsafe
Unrehearsed for the first date .
