she wandered trough the field of
yellow flower wealth

I’ve no faith in gods
No trust of prophets or seers
Not one Mustard seed

Laying on my side,
listless,
looking out the
window,
sideways.
I don’t need to warn
the trees of my change
of view. They have roots
and hold on.
Neither the birds,
traversing sideways
skies.
It’s the people. Without
roots, without wings, they
tumble sideways.

long term memories
like the front door welcome mat
aged and weathered
When spring brings freeze cold
you can almost hear budding
plants and trees moaning

Willow tree in a rimed Landscape - FVG Photography
You might have liked me
to be a child of sticks,
of snare shots, sizzle,
and coordinated drum kicks
Instead, you had me,
a curious kid with fingers
on the keys, a tongue
on mouthpiece and reed
We all find our way in
Sheathed violence. Memories of sun. Clouds.
Ghosts of raindrops fading on the stones.
Absent a bow your arrows
lie quiscient. Razor-tipped presences
upsetting as flies in the sugar,
threatening as your crooked smile.
Lunch leftovers sweating in heat.
At this range there would be no escape
puncture and shock and blood.
Eventually I will stand and walk away
shaking. Anticipation of sharp steel rush
chilling the sweat trickling my spine.

Replied to Algot
If every raindrop
were a run, batted by clouds,
cheers would be allowed

rain washed out the game
and today could be the same
such is spring baseball
"The children are scared
of the bird mask
And can’t go to sleep"
Today's prompt at #OpenWrite was an I Am From poem. I tried a music note theme.

dry heat haze,
drinking deep, fresh rays
of warm sun

Climate-threatened life
will keep trying ... 'til it can't.
Knowing, we owe more.
Powdered white morning
Crisp red blossoms - Winter plum
First to usher Spring

per my weather app
this overcast morning seems
... quieter
whole domed religion
poison bubble
rubbed up from the body
an oozing failure
of layers to maintain
adhesion to design
and you with heated needle
quick as knight's lance
prick the skin free
from the raw strain - we'll walk
no further in sunset rose light
but perhaps it will rise again for us
tomorrow

Spring's balm quickly fades
Summer blisters the garden
Sunflowers show some skin
Thick and radiant through Fall

the blistering sun
threatens the purple iris
clinging to the spring

A hammer to
the head —
it's not what
you think —
but even so,
years after,
I thought
about it, often,
late at night,
remembering
the fall,
the cry,
the call,
as I lay awake
in bed
summer dawns,
scent of plum blossom
lingering
梅が香 (umegaka) – scent of plum blossom
