Here
are a few new poems and some old ones gathered from other posts.
Gazing at the child
That inhabits
Your sleeping face
~~~
Through
the window, winter
A
falling snowflake
Shakes
the house
~~~
The Waterfall
Chaos
and bedlam
No
droplet misplaced
Pandemonium
Cacophony
Every
splash harmony
Even
the moment
Of
thunderous impact
Silent
water
Gives
silent birth
To
silent spray
The
waterfall
Is the
water
Is the
rocks
Is the
trees
The
waterfall
Writes
this
Reads
this
Is this
Is just
A waterfall
~~~
Take
heart!
Every
moment
A
second chance
~~~
My
cowardice is in vain
There
is nowhere
To hide
~~~
Paddling
down the rapids
No time
to reflect
On
skilful strokes
~~~
In a
dreamless sleep
The
Rocky Mountains
Stride
across the prairies
~~~
Countless
cries
One
voice
Can’t
ignore
~~~
Who is
asking this question?
What
wants to know?
An
ancient tree blooms
~~~
Thinking
about thinking about thinking
Ripples
on the pond
Where
the frog jumped in
~~~
When I
fell
You
stopped
To help
me up
~~~
Morning stretch
Reach out
And touch the moon
