Hygeia

In running water
She prepares her healing hands
Work upon the sick

Feeling better and back at it again!
I'll try to do these at least once a day now.
This haiku is for Hygeia, Goddess of Good Health.
Another one of my favourite goddess, I really adore her haha!

Complex Compound

Anxiety and fears, components
of a complex compound
Many elements of emotions mixed
Atomic mass fixed
Unbalanced emotions
Dilutes every element of the equation
Catalyst elements of happy quotient
Higher atomic efficiency
To balance the equation
The strength of the compound
Equilibrium

All chemicals, sometimes need a fix
Just a complex thought

Moonrise

The moon, shy and demure
In her peaches and cream finery
Appears into the faint blue sky
Glides up delicate and slow
As the sky turns midnight blue
Soon she changes hue
Rises in full glory
As she goes up the charcoal sky
amongst the twinkling stars to stay
Now in a fiery orange glow

Carlo C Gomez

Defenestration

Distance
Coddled me into believing
Each step forward was the same,
Measure for measure.

Detachment
Led me to reason
Every unguarded move was safe,
So new, so pure.

Then all at once,
So Thirty Years' War,
Out the window
I was thrown.

Misty memories

Misty waterfalls
And mud trails
Mountains covered in green
Like the meadows
As you climb up the top
You savour corn on the cob
Roasted on charcoal
A zing of lemon, butter and herbs
While taking in the view of the valley down
Moments to minutes, gentle hours
Memories in old photographs

Prehistoric( me)

Those days science and literature did not mingle
In came life and it said lessons you must learn
Logic, rules and the laws of life
Metaphorically matter
Riddled with emotions
Cradled in the hearth
All together

Just for fun
