full moon
I light a match
give thanks
the spell burns fast
and I’m dancing
5/6/12
Tributes requested
are generously penned
for the dead poet.
And me? I pay tribute
reading her work again.
***********
her words
are clear as fire
lighting
our pathway through
her dark absence
12/6/12
leafless branches
bloom with azaleas
pink on grey
brightening winter
briefly — then pruned
19/6/12
orange blooms
over my fence
the creeper
thrives like the weeds
which I allow
26/6/12
been here
days already
present
to me and himself
now drifts off elsewhere
26-7/6/12
These are gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteOh, thank you!
DeleteCreeping orange bloossoms over a fence sound equally as delightful as being inspired by a long-gone poetess' words, then lighting a match to the mooon and dancing!
