I talk to waves
that shape the shore,
they tell me nothing,
but I hear much more.
The ebb runs deep
beneath my skin,
the tide goes out,
then flows within.
And when they leave,
I understand,
some waves return,
some become the sand.

A spiral sleeps
inside a flower,
golden dreams
fill the hour.
Petals curve
in morning light,
circles bloom
cascading bright.
Dewdrops gleam,
then disappear,
nature draws
without a sphere.
#WriteMap#vss365
when the hidden shall be revealed
as shadows dressed in light deceive
theatrical as blood moon stars drip
where this wand teasing smells of smoke
curiosity clinging to conjured desires
holding these moments sacred
living these haunted dreams deeply
scared where kisses can kill…

After Everything Changes
Interesting, isn't it, how we hold the most ordinary moments sacred. Like the first witch hazel flower in January's frost. What a robust little plant it is. A forlorn snowflake...
1/5
In the sum of past action
a #poet memorializes joy
retrieves love's merits
preserves comforts voice
tries to understand reactions
reflects on observations
and sometimes
provides transit
from an ugly world
to an exquisitely beautiful universe
#poetry#WriteMap
No self to become
The midnight masquerade fades
We bloom as we are
No finish line to chase
#Elated, our hearts awaken
Life needs no disguise
No one left to prove
Curiosity leads us home
We start by being here

#vss365#elated#bionicanadian Theatrical stars
feline curiosity
caught between two worlds--
she hides
behind the veil of hopeful solitude
yet is elated
by the play of theatrical stars,
night’s myriad spectators
gazing on the world below
clinging, watching…
watched.
if curiosity could cure
the wound would stay open wide
pain vanishes in no time
bury questions in skin
let healing begin
quiet gaze goes
deeper than the wound.
flesh feels, mind forgives
place healing over noise
let peace revolve, story evolve
meddlesome,
mind your own business!

Mid-Journey——
curiosity begins
with an accusation:
the world is withholding something.
But a mystery makes no promise.
Silence owes us nothing.
Still, the traveler goes farther,
paying in miles,
in years,
in all that was left behind.
And then presents the bill
to a world
that never invited us.
旅の途上の好奇心は、一つの告発から始まります。世界は何かを隠している、という告発です。
しかし、謎は何も約束していません。沈黙にも、私たちに何かを返す義務などありません。
それでも旅人は、さらに遠くへ向かいます。道のりを重ね、歳月を費やし、後に残してきたものすべてを代償として支払いながら。
そして最後には、その代償の請求書を世界へ差し出すのです。
そもそも、旅人を一度も招待したことのない世界へ。

We Played Pretend when we were Small.
Imagination we embraced. But as adults we were told to get serious, to hide our doodles and daydreams.
