Memoirs of spring.

I.

Blossoming plum tree.
How well the falling petals
conceal the many abortions,
of your unwanted children.


II.

Falling petals from plum trees,
weave a white carpet, so soft.
Never a more spectacular show,
Of death.


III.

Plum flowers like mothers
Shed and sacrifice their petals.
To give to the ripe babies,
a gift of safe arrival.

Restrained.

The bee longs
for the blossoms yonder,
Looking through the glass window.

Love.

It hides behind the clouds, peeking.
It glows of a secret,but is too shy to tell.
The moon must be in love with me.

Sunday, May 19

Ripples.


Ripples run around,
to tell everyone,
a fly's mischief.

Clouds.


The weavers of the clouds of imaginations,
work relentlessly, day and night.
For the children are growing
every second.

Judging Love.



Call it not "just a twig," love.
From the heart of a thorny bush,
in the middle of a desert oasis,
sprayed with glacial water,
wrapped in a japanese paper,
It's not a rose, but
call it not "just a twig," love
and never consider it such.

A matter of time.



Glistening, basking on the rock -turtle
Vanished, not a clue,
Just water and ripples.

Set in Stone.

There -set in stone,
Carved a thousand years ago,
Now a crinkly mirror, aged with time
A weathered lacquer,
Moth infested, and the white ants too.
The paint flaking, to reveal the softness inside
A broken edge, uncovering a lighter shade
Cracked and burnt - charred living
A fuming smell of carbon and rancid death
Of various belongings and keepsakes.
People and things.
The past, peeking.
Of nails and betrayals.
A history, a struggle, a story about love- or loves
There lies my heart, set in stone.
