Haiku from a Garden

Poetry by | July 13, 2008

afternoon sunlight
trysts with unexpected rain
blue bed bursts colors

?

dragonfly now rare
reminds me of the green fire
lurking in those eyes

?

crimson and golden
petals carpet my garden
sweep not struggle not

?

winding jutting through
window pane opening vine
curls to me its song

?

dirt waste filth the earth
takes all into her bosom
gives back fragrant blooms

?

roots grow in darkness
branches stretch towards the light
dark and light make life

?

the cactus pricks me
playfully i pierce it back
ancient juices ooze

?

three leaves falling greet
me good morning i smile
as i walk past goodbye

?

the forest dances
in pureness and wildness
’tis one and the same
