Coral Poppy

buds waiting to bloom

covet petals spread open

bask in sun, self-love 

 

 

Emerald Garden

vines wrap around you

conjure emerald garden

blind facts with fiction

Will the creepers die

let the body breathe free or

choke health, force decay

I in the sky

solitary i

candle light in  ruby sky

glows and dies each night

Sunset at Port Albert Beach

 

Sundown

When you disappear

shrouded in mysterious clouds 

you are still present 

 

Sunset

veils of cloud hover

fireball sinks into darkness

renew the next day

 

Poster Bride

 on a wall, she sits

wondering, waiting, wistful

stuck, until she's torn

Sundial

truth kept on dial

shadows point to reality

revealed with contrast

prone to fall at a slight touch

yet appear steady

 

Taller

dominant, forceful

shading the sibling's progress 

yet close, protective
