Ball

Abandoned, drifting

bobbing with the waves' applause

unmoved by glitter

staying afloat. tense

 with fear of depth, attachment

hoarding illusions

 

Fragile Strength

delicate, slender

fragile yet strong, nurturing

buds, unfurling leaves

 

Impressionism

budding twigs cradle

blurred waves. melancholic blues

tearful renewal

 

Lost Cloud

a lost cloud hovers

rainless on a clear bright day

a whisper of hope

 

Rain in my Heart

it rains in my heart 

the painful sounds of dear ones

lost but still with me

 

Swan

It glides on the lake

majestic, free to roam past

the city's chatter

 

Trees on Rocks

on a frigid day

bare, leafless, stoic, they wait

for spring's renewal

 

Swans' Faith

they don't worry for

every need comes from the lake

food, peace, contentment

let's trust nature too

have faith in us, in others

in our blessed earth

 

Metal Rod

stubborn, it stands out 

part of construction debris 

to stop erosion

holding on, battling

waves, constantly trying to

dislodge its ego

 

Beach Rocks

heavily they rest

impervious to the constant

barrage of pressure

 

Nature in the City

nature-filled city

harmony within our reach

to find inner peace

 

Marsh

sun-lit grass grows roots 

in stagnant pool, spreads the marsh

in circular growth

 

Tall Grass

despite winter's freeze 

tall grass and cat tails rise up

sunlight's spectral sheen

 

Early Moon

lone pearl preens, vain, bold

fades in the sun's gold splendour

waits for night to glow

 

Light and Shadow

Light breaks out shadows

they clash till drab blocks crumble

with positive views

 

Sunlight

golden circles sway

over sluggish, sunken rocks

surface gems lie deep

 

Duck to Water

content on the slosh

 paddling on waves of sun lines 

from the flock's vision

 

Reflected Tree

hardened tree loosens

dances in reflected waves

arcane deliverance

 

Snow Play

snow play, carefree fun

winter's cool, diverting spell

mercy from the storm

 

Snowfall

veil of snow swathes all

in diaphanous chiffon

secretive, mystic
