the blood moon is red
some rivers blue
the colour gray comes to mind
when i say i miss you
the grass blades sway
as the breeze passes by
i wonder
what is the colour of a sigh

the cat
“She went looking for Eternity
to clarify the universal observer’s role”…Love it!
While I was washing roses by the gate
with a dash of liquid Omo on a toothbrush,
fish-heads came to mind,
and I began a metaphysical meander
with just the two of us: my neighbor’s cat and I.
Two chords for self-taught breathing,
causality’s unwound tidal oscillations,
nor birds nor raindrops nor Pangaea:
everyone is waiting for a doorway in the wind,
feather-dusting the furniture for departure.

frosty gardens
decorated with many a festive light
the black starry skies
such a wondrous sight
exchange gifts
convey new year greetings
make new promises
for more coffee meetings
comment on the new designs
travel infused holiday glow
choose to go
with the flow
wondering how to get to the other side
need one glimpse a chance to say hi
as the new year dawns
sit on the beach and sip cardamon chai
talk about this and that
be silent as we hold hands
watch life slip by
like turquoise waters kissing the white sands
to love
is to let go
but can it also be
to ask for a little more
i take one step forward
you gently push me back
to where I want to go
need a heart and no map
for what we sometimes want and imagine
can be more than a fleeting desire
some lives are connected
like embers and fire
i think about our lives
across the miles sweet mysterious ties
i choose to sleep like a content child
while the moon plays with the starry skies
solace
your mornings
my nights
our days
no senseless fights
comforting solace
strange deep connection
nothing heartless
just a fascination
for simple things
no bling
so much joy
they always bring
like a child
i frantically turn and search
while you graciously hide
a stranger out of reach
we will find each other
someday somehow somewhere
may the bold morning sun gently shine on you
my far away cherry blossom…won’t you take care?
rainy reminiscence
the earth shakes
and intense rain falls
beautiful whales are no more
while ribbons are cut to open new malls
misty eyes
isolation everywhere
so much ignorance and fear
people scared to say they care
for the one who is different
comes from another place
part of humanity
coded as another race
small children play
in a big park
babies wake up
to the song of the lark
the man sees the macaroons
remembers that his wife once loved them
his eyes say the story
In his heart he still holds her memory like a precious gem
i walk
for a very long time
indulge in reminiscence
think about this life of mine
i close my eyes grateful for the day
in my dream the night sky gifts me a snowflake
the rain stops to fall
the earth stops to shake
when i am bold
the loud noises make me quiet
i choose to hear
just your breathing
when you are anywhere but near
what’s a continent
or two
cherry blossoms grow
for me and you
in lands
far from their home
i can’t wait
to simply roam
indulge in learning
decipher strife
search for the many versions of truth
love and life
in your silence
i hear ancient stories untold
i will reach out one day
when i am bold
i close my eyes
taste the jasmine tea
dare to think about you
and me
Time
stuffed brown bears with red bows
begin to fill the brightly lit shopping aisles
another festive season comes along
listening to christmas music we wonder how time flies
the wish lists
slowly appear
simple gift ideas
quickly disappear
my wish list is ready
with what i desire most in this this heart of mine
one gift is all I need this festive season
the precious gift of time
