Whiter Shades of Gold

whiter shades of gold

diversity, sustenance 

for evolution

 

Flourishing

trained, held by wire

to shoot up straight, flourishing

from human constraints

 

Forsythia golden bells

ring in golden spring

the fresh breath of revival

lasting till summer

 

Magnolia

rising, opening

to give it all, then to die

recreate over

 

Spring Abstraction

Spring's abstract growth

effusive melding wishes

romance in colours

 

White Hyacinth

white curls and green spears

nourished from earth's wild offers

feed our eyes with grace

 

Blossoms

scintillating lace 

tickles shadows with laughter

coquettish offering

 

Transparency

light filters through, plays

with transparency, shines the

truth on all that live

 

Ebullience

ebullient, graceful

operatic shades of rose 

unruly beauty 

 

Niagara Parks Power Station Tunnel

 light from the tunnel

a journey built brick by brick

the end's just a start

Niagara Falls, Canada

relentless roaring

unthinkable power plunge

mist's tearful relief 

 

Reflective

looming rain, serene

deepen reflections, stir

hope in the unknown

 

Frilly Daffodil

Flounced skirt, layered veils

roll out in sensual dance, tease

belief, dream wonders

 

Red Chair and Golden Bells

golden bells, spring's zing

red deck chair, summer's calm zest

sunshine, the mind's zap

 

Tulips

spring's intense red joy

leaf blades sharp like devils' ears

enhance the passion

 

Glowing Heart

a heart glows at night

undraped, thrusting its might on

wary passers-by

 

Hyacynth

shades of mauve exude

sweet scents, charged, provocative,

balm of a fresh kiss

 

City Trees

luminescent trees

tech show for office towers

nature's travesty

Or perhaps brilliance

resourceful minds fostering

city playfulness  

 

Pink

Pink's true but doubtful

of being girly, wants to be

accepted by all

 

Star Petals

a sprinkle of stars 

tickles my bewildered mind

unlocks the hushed muse
