Poetry ~ Waka
waning moon
like broken souls of broods
kiss the darkness
daunting clouds still hover
robbing them of their youth
Walking home with heavy heart she thinks of her long shift. So much suffering, such turmoil, youths turning 14 going on 40…all the tears and moans linger in her heart.

holy scriptures

Leaving work flirting midnight, she looked up at the sky and began her pursuit. The sky illuminated at times showing off its teal blue and then she noticed patches of white and grey. On she went aiming for the perfect spot…
weaving through
over and under
rain clouds
preying through black forests
chasing the glow

Sunday stroll by the river just before sunset. She walks along the park alone; summer lovers have deserted their summer nest and still, she feels a tingle of life, romance and sheer beauty in the air.
dressed in autumn’s best
preening at their reflection

vibrant hues linger
autumn soon shades the earth
lapping each moment
darkness lurks in the shadows
barren and cold

Late at night after she has arrived home and settled on her comfy couch, her bff (best feline friend) snuggles on the back of the couch near her neck. Such a lovely way to end her day. She wonders why on earth the English language chose “purring” to emulate the sound. Yes, definitely, she thinks to herself, the French word has coined the perfect match.
savourant le calme
bercée par son ronronnement
paupières s’alourdir
basking in stillness
lulled by her purring
eyelids weigh

Daily Moments October 13 2016 Semantics Haibun
rhythmic chant
echoes
under starlit skies
rasping her last mantra
enveloped in her radiance

Three Word Wednesday: radiance, rasp, rhythm
illusions
her golden glow deceives
autumn
illusions
lively colours of the leaves
tumbling to their death
her golden glow deceives
another broken promise
wish upon a star
autumn
mask of maturity
counting days
