Shadows and Light



Shadows and light
Make merry together
Whenever the sky
Kisses the earth
 
Happy Sky Watch!

Kind (O.S.I.)

Hi all,

I am happy to write a new poem for O.S.I. and the theme is kind.

They circle, bend, and smile
From time to time
Painting their love
Along the skyline
Turtle doves for your hair
Acorns for the squirrels to chew
The earth buried beneath red leaves
We turn, examine so beautifully
The color of pearl in the ocean
Though danger lurks beyond the woods
I've seen in nature something kind
Render me speechless, fully alive

Conscious (Haiku)

Hi all,

I am writing a pair of haiku for Haiku Heights and the theme is conscious.  Hope you enjoy!!

Dream a little dream
Moonbeam sweeps across your face
The stars spell your name
 
Light waits in morning
Greets softly, sunny-side up
Dream another day

Free (O.S.I.)

Hi all,

I am writing the following poem for O.S.I. and the theme is free.

Time passes me by
I keep waiting for his call
Dipping into dreams
Long, dark corridors
Light escaping through glass
Sadness weighs on my shoulders
Like a heavy, cruel companion
As memories wilt
Into twilight
Yet a dream revives me
I have hawk eyes
And triumphant wings
That stretches out to eternity
I break free

Scarecrow (O.S.I.)

Hi all,

I am writing a poem for O.S.I. and the theme is scarecrow.

Lonely, mournful scarecrow
Gazing upon October moon
Beholds the world through button eyes
And feels cold nights through his straw
Friends are always fleeting
Crows are old, familiar foes
But his heart is alive and beating
He dreams beyond the shadows

Red Light (Skywatch)



Red light
Stop
Pause
Gaze up
At the wide
Blue sky
 
Happy Sky Watch!

Words In Autumn

Hi all,

I wrote a new freestyle poem.  I hope you enjoy.

Crisp, autumn leaves
Cascading, falling
They remind me of old friends
Saying hello again
The crunch of earth beneath
Is like a warm hello
And they dress so beautifully
Lavish themselves in gold
Flaunt red coats
Masquerade in brown, earth tones
I am a wallflower
Blending into their colorful world
Then the wind carries them away
Leaving tree limbs bashful and naked
