petrifying heat --
we hold on for our dear lives;
hiding in shadows.

Mysterious skies
Oh, how I look upon you
Silently, but loud

at dusk, the moon hangs
pendulum in thin veiled sky
still between heart beats

A soaking night rain
In the torrent, still ducks stand
Revelling in all

a clear and far sea
distant gull wings skim wave tops
flutters of change sound

Wisdom

A bird of wisdom,
Gasp, all this knowledge, frightening
The apple of life

Happiness awaits

Rivers of sadness
Flowing away, darkness fades
Clouds drifting, sunshine

Pain is only temporary

Roses of darkness,
the tide of fear moving fast;
Temporary pain

Hesitant

oh, sad little bird,
you are far too insecure,
with far too much hope.
