Something in the rising sun;
the brown, gold and scarlet.
In the breath of new dawn
blossoms lolling with poignant memories.
Skies fill with birdsong.
Unfolding his wings,
the Eagle soars through dusty clouds.
Bells sounding for the future that is to come.

distraction
mired in city traffic
forgot my way home
listening to that summer voice
haiku
Response to Carpe Diem #1491 Kabyle, the music of Algerian Berbers
SILENT THIEF
Through grandeur of stars
The dawn of tomorrow steadily approaches
As NATURE bequeaths a rich legacy
Autumn’s glory;
Gold and scarlet trinkets
Bathed with green in spring.
Baltimore feasting on a citrus treat;
Memories to be treasured
As TIME slowly steals one’s (perfect) vision.

Delirious Thoughts from Madasahatter572 😉
NEW WORLD ORDER
Roll over me
YOU
golden fiend.
Ground me
into acidic oblivion
where once lived
countless red fragrant maidens.
Smother me
bash me,
drown me.
Mechanical Art’, they call YOU.
aye, Astounding Ingenuity’.
To me, YOU are
flesh and blood harvester.
DEATH-
MY ABSOLUTE ANNIHILATION.
QUADRILLE
Delirious Thoughts from Madasahatter572 😉
Partake of me,
All of me.
I, surround you;
rich loamy soil,
thick ferns and air plants.
Ancient centurions
stand tall with
thick black veins
grappling frivolous air.
Partake of me,
All of me.
Shed off your burdens
soar with me into the stars.
* Quadrille is a verse consisting of 44 words.
* I did not know that this was some religious verse or scripture, I just thought it was a note from song long, long ago heard and replays in mind once in a great while.
Matthew 6:33
33 But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.
DVERSE – POETS PUB CHALLENGE: QUADRILLE # 14
Outside her window
sits a jar.
Sheer curtains
sway a silhouette;
laughter becomes
invisible.
She loosens her blouse;
a wink, a lick of those lips,
head tilts towards
to utter jarring words,
‘want to see more?’
‘Yes,’ I growl.
‘Give me all your money.’
