Interesting times.
Don’t know what is going.
What the world will be.
I’m sure it’ll crazy.
Just buckle up, buttercup…

Inflation

Special thanks to my collaborator on this Rengay, Anthony, mylovexpressionsblog.wordpress.com

Here prices skyrocket.
Need to find new ways to pay.
The struggle is real.
You’d better save up my friend.
As it’s not getting cheaper…

Friendship Yearnings

Longing for friendship
Wishes bloom in the heart’s song
A bond yet to be
I swear that it is out there
Be true to yourself, you’ll see…

Make it all Happen

There’s work to be done

Time to get at it

Dreams come true with work

Manifest, see it happen

It will all fall into place…

Abandoned

Special thanks to my collaborator on this Rengay, Anthony mylovexpressionsblog.wordpress.com

I am abandoned

Dropped just like a bad habit

Really a sad thing

Lonely and forlorn, I weep

Longing for warmth and solace

Golden crust delight
Mozzarella’s tender melt
Joy in every bite
Time to loosen up your belt
This tasty pie is just right…

Dusk Dancers

Special thanks to my collaborator on this Renku, Anthony mylovexpressionsblog.wordpress.com

Forms dance in the dusk
Veils of mystery and peace
Silent stories told
Solely by shared movement
Embracing deepening night.

Natures Wondrous Secrets

Special thanks to my collaborator on this Renku, Anthony mylovexpressionsblog.wordpress.com

Soft caress of air
Whispers secrets of the world
Nature’s softest sigh
Standing still you can hear it
And share all of its wonder…

Flood Of Memories

Special thanks to my collaborator on this Renku, Anthony mylovexpressionsblog.wordpress.com

Voices of the past
Rippling through the canyon walls
Memories return
Nothing can damn their current
Flooding out in a torrent…

Green Libraries

Ancient trees stand tall
Whispered tales of time and life
Green sanctuary
Older than all time itself
These green libraries stand tall…

Moonrise

Daylight bows to night, 
Brushstrokes of purple and gold
Silence sings the stars
Brightness rises with the moon
Bathing the darkness in light…

Stony Brook

Special thanks to my collaborator on this Renku, Anthony mylovexpressionsblog.wordpress.com

Winding through the stones
Gentle secrets softly flow
Life’s pulse in each drop
Crisp icy waters flow by
Carrying some fallen leaves…

Wide Open

Special thanks to my collaborator on this Renku, Anthony mylovexpressionsblog.wordpress.com

Wide fields kiss the sky
Daisies dance in warm sunlight
Nature’s quilt unfolds
Greeted by deafened silence
With only the wind speaking…

Poetry Wonders

Write a quick haiku

Count syllables when your through

To that style stay true.

Now to create a tanka

Add two lines with seven beats.

Ethereal Harmony

Universal source  

Where everything can exist  

All at the same time.  

Stars twinkle in the night sky,  

Dreams dance on the soft, warm breeze.
