Moon Island

the moon island
blinding light hides craters
where fall to wonderland
of children unknown
never meant to be seen

Sage

Tanka Poets On Site

sage near quiet pond
meditates on blooming lotus
sets his soul free
with iridescent colors
wings of dragonflies

.

Dreams

Tanka Poets On Site
(water world)

immersed in liquid
soothing heartbeat for comfort
wait to meet the world
do dreams begin to form
before the eyes can see?

.

Web

intricate web of time
a thread unbroken
save for memory
birth to death
gossamer silk road

.

Rainwater

golden leaf at rest
beneath fountain rainwater
death of autumn

.

Blur

love me as i am
let expectations blur
into nothingness
each moment a surprise
with such freedom

.

White

leafless tree
stark white limbs await
winter’s first snow

.
