Ominous forebode,
Gridlock galore, but for blame.
Devious lying,
Allude to our Pol Potus.
Selfish moves are unabashed.

Huge free space hovers
Over water fierce and strong
We touch beach sand toes
Stillness but for shrieking birds
Stunned by this beauty, soft hue

Art with children, joy
Messes galore face and hands
Color everywhere
What can we create better
Than wholesome chaos, yahoo!

Tanka #8 Goodbye My Friend

A friend wrote goodbye
I replied sorrow, thanks, love,
Must say past slowly
Only days to make happen
What should have taken decades.

Just lost an option,
Took another one instead.
How did it happen?
Fiddled and connived madly
Oh to confront flub, ye gads.

She climbs up grinning
Accomplished, driven, so bright.
What chance have they, those
Little ones who perch on bars,
To play with friends peacefully?

politics damned sad scowling
Disdain thoughts dug in
Run to nowhere fast slow down
Silly dangerous clown ugh bah

Respect these trees for
they touch skies, deep down in earth;
with grandeur prevail,
green needles protecting bark,
light breaks provoking quiet.

To see a mountain
At sunrise is glorious
Not to be forgot
Or ever considered less
Than what is monumental

Sounds delightful nod
Soft flows trickle green moss sinks
Blue yellow sun shade
Shadows follow foot steps hear
Grasses bend and bow, ’til now
