#decorate
The cat attacked the tree
everything came
falling down
The cat left
me picking up
the ornaments
and starting
all over again
Realizing that
I get a second chance
to decorate it
to put it together
again
in a different
way
*pauses and reflects
at healing in life*

Ghosts & Goblins
dance in the dark
Skeletons are crawling
in yards everywhere
Cauldrons begin to
boil as brooms
ready for flight
Witches gather
in delight for
soon it's
HALLOWEEN
Night
It's time to prepare
to ***** and scare
Time to plug in the
lights & decorate creepy pumpkins
Don't forget the spiders
they like crawl and bite.
Let's all have fear & fun this
Halloween night !!

Departures casted in moonlight decorate her heartbreak,
Feverish realizations settle,
A forgotten union dismantled at sunrise.

Writers are
The flexible species
If they want
They can conclude
"You"
Into haiku
And explain
"You"
As an epic

Like flowers of different colours decorate a garden
So we through our differences adorn the earth
For there is beauty in difference

All of my dishes, stacked in my room
Am I a slob? Please don't assume.
Clothes—whether ***** clean, or worn—
I know the difference, though they're strewn.
Twinkling lights strung overhead
Match the lamp beside my bed.
With dust my dresser is adorned,
And my favorite chair is red.
I see the beauty in the mess;
Why do you cry in distress?
Mom, I like to live like this.
And I have no one to impress.

broken pieces decorate the night,
creating galaxy in darkness by writing poetry,
to wakeup healed next morning...

In the streets of Mecca
and Medina I pray I get lost.
Searching my way whole
day in heat I will exhaust.__
Who knows after being
much tossed and shoved.
I may find the stepped paths
of my Mustafa beloved.__
I'll garland and decorate those
paths with flowers nice;
As those will be paths of
success leading to paradise.__
