On the hydrangeas

the weight of the morning sun

the evening sun


---Otsuyu



green pond surface
duck track
visible past

 -
dammens
grønne overflade
spor efter ænder
fortidens minder


crane fly in the web
sucked dry:
wings, legs, body, one flat line
murmuring river:
a poet listened to
every day

..cautious

distant thunder...
cautiously homeward
we tread
~~
..(C)2012 Spiros Zafiris
..channeled; spirit Ram
~~
suddenly
the sound of loneliness:
curlew on the moor

..instruments

on the beach,
they discovered string sections
on each other's toes
sumptuous sonatas became
their joined lips too...summer
~~
..(C)2012 Spiros Zafiris
..channeled; spirit Ram
~~
the old gardener
dozing
...drooping rose heads

..inasmuch

inasmuch
as the rainbow
will soon fade
do not all who witness it
hold their loves more tenderly
~~

Full circle
cheerfully butterflies playing
making it happen

pulsing cicadas
pull me into their rhythm
a hammock of sound

still pond
in the cool of the day
reflecting Eden
the old school  -
nature gobbles the playground
bindweed picks the lock
