Quiet winds whisper,
Not all battles are your own —
Leave them to the storm.
Stay out of matters that aren't your business. 😊
Yes, I abetted
Albeit, not the sum of gelt
You know that's my heart.
Two voices speak loud,
Each truth holds half of the light,
Wisdom in balance.
Listen to the entire album
Quiet masks the beast,
Push me, and you'll meet the fangs—
Unseen wrath released.
Speaks with wrong words,
Eyes gleam with borrowed insight—
Depth is just for show.
Dancing in the rain
Feels good to our tattered souls
Let the rain pour down

(a poem in several Haiku and Senryu stanzas)

The molten gold sun
on cerulean canvas
breeze borne cirrus clouds

flawless days stretching
like sun-kissed bodies - crisp white
linen cabanas

lips roughly sore from
innumerable kisses
we shimmer white hot.

Lulling rhythmic waves -
heaven's extravagant taste
- on leisure sculpt days

masterpiece pleasures,
love’s instigative brushstrokes,
paint compelling joy
.

I don't want to be
where I'm not wanted but I
WANT TO BE WANTED
A constant theme in my life
