Distant sunset clouds –
Make believe a mountain range ~
Time is speeded up.
Iapetus
Month: August 2015
Twilight
Poles clang, sail and flag –
Small dinosaurs, signing off ~
Recalling Tang verse.
Close
Under ceiling fans –
The insect music outside ~
Friends, further away.
EventuallyÂ
Go fishing again –
Finally catch one, for once ~
Throw it back, happy.
Budding
Seeing things anew –
Sharing, with others in mind ~
Recharging ourselves.
Present
Look at the island –
Floating over the corals ~
Laughter, suddenly.
Worlds
Snorkeling the reef –
Losing count of the new fish ~
Forgetting to breathe.
Shades
To Sleeping Giant –
A garden by his belly ~
The most gentle shapes.
Familiars
Chewing sugar cane –
Contentedly, in the sun ~
But birds want my crisps.
Dawn
A sleeping giant –
Roused by the morning Sun ~
Iron shirts to birdsong.
