hovers above my crown
threatening aerial deployment

perched atop green throne
looks out into summery world

from top of the pine tree
looks out into summery world

at the saloon
fallen tresses

drenched by summer rain

fainting flowers
quivering lightly
the days grow dark

in darkness
the lotus flowers bloom
shade of whiteness
silently radiates
dragged into open field

under lotus moon
a tired ant drags its burden
night birds in wonder

OR

beneath the moon
a tired ant drags its burden
night birds watching

a black crow
seeks to parlay with
young sparrows

this afternoon
green field is frosted with snow –
white dandelions

in early spring
visible in dark skies
in lieu of snowflakes –
a flurry of white dandelions

it is raining
in this indecisive grey area –
early morning
