At Sea

Like the ocean, vast
Your waves encompass my heart
I am lost in you

Arthur Blank May 2022

Soft pitter patter
Falling on soft gentle leaves
Says the forest rain

Arthur Blank Apr 2022

The flower long gone
The heart plucked by winters hand
And for a moment
Her pedals once soft again
Held behind closed eyes.

Tanka

Haiku54

There was silence then
Trees, bird and stream came alive
And all life made sense.

Tanka11

There's no love today.
I sit on a distant shore,
Watching waves throw shapes,
Stark blue and emerald traces,
In them my heart excapes.

Rain

To say whence it came
Black puddles mirrored the sky
Night brought heavy rain

Haiku63

What does he say
That warm days are here to stay
When the small bird sings?
