in that stillness moment i, questioning
why people stare through (and stare within, staring through)
that fuzz or mush like their covered window panes (staring within, staring through)
that shy window pane that turns

eeyoyvrbd   e r o e b y v y d   e  e  y  y  o  d  b  r  v

so that i (staring in, staring at) may roam in

eybdoryoyebordyoevydebdbeyodebedyobyobye

turning my mind to that fuzz and static, becoming fogged window pane
to look out (and stare) like rain droplets caressing
so rough they fall to pound that pavement
pavement so coarse and electric like the peppered mountain range
where i stand
my shoes fill like leaking boats
to roam, to wander, in that desolate diorite range (staring within)
questioning (staring through) as time joining
disappearing
as headache turns everybody to everything turns

Roses atop spun gold
Sea-green eyes so still with love
Songs are sparrow-sweet


This haiku is dedicated to the muse, Erato.
I feel such a kinship with her as she is the muse of lyrical poetry.

Drumbeat spiced with joy
Chiffon hips ****** left and right
Ribbons charm the wind


Covering the Nine Greek Muses now, haha!
Starting with one of my favourite Muse, Terpsichore!
No words can express how much I love her, I swear, haha!

She whose born to strength
Wet with love for Achilles
Her life paid for wind


Another woman of myth, Iphigenia.
Such a tragic figure of Greek myth, I grew up with the version of her being sacrificed by her father to appease Artemis, though I know there are other variants to the story.
So sad...
But I really am enjoying this series, I hope you all are too!
There's alot more to come!
Be back soon with more!
Much love,

Pushed onto the craftsman lamed

Who doesn't love a good croissant on their downtime?
Just a sweet classic treat, especially when its fresh out the oven
I especially love it with a spoonful of honey, though having it with jam is great too!

The Pâtisserie collection continues, haha!
Crepes are a guilty pleasure of mine.
Personally, I love mine with some lemon and honey.
Powdered sugar sprinkled on it with some berries on the side.
And the best part is that they can be sweet or savoury!
Br back with more soon!

Bird flies over hills
Wait for me around my mind
Grass grows without fear
Forgot to post this yesterday where I walked up a hill and took in the sights of man and nature both...
Worth it haha!
Much love,
