Last night
I walked in on
death at my friend Polar Bear's wake,
i turned around and left,
Fiddled my hair a lot,
Why do people call it a resurrection
when the person is dead?

Sometimes By Sheenagh Pugh
Sometimes things don't go, after all,
from Bad to worse. Some years, muscadel
faces down frost, green thrives, the crops don't fail,
sometimes, a man aims high, and all goes well.
.
A people sometimes will step back from war;
elect an honest man, decide they care
enough, that they cannot leave some stranger poor.
Some men became what they were born for.
.
Sometimes our best efforts do not go
amiss, sometimes we do as we meant to.
The sun will sometimes melt a field of sorrow,
that seemed hard frozen: may it happen for you.

New Hampshire By Howard Moss
#1:
When the loons cry,
The night seems blacker,
The water deeper.
.
Across the shore:
An eyelash-charcoal
Fringe of pine trees.
#2:
The lake reflects
Indefinite pewter.
.
And intermittent thunder
lets us know.
.
The gods are arriving,
one valley over.
#3:
After the long
Melancholy of the fall,
One longs for the crisp
Brass shouts of winter-
.
The blaze of firewood,
The window's spill
of parlor lamplight
Across the snow.
#4:
Flaring like a match
Dropped in a dry patch,
One sunset tells
the spectrum's story.
.
See the last hunter's
Flashlight dim
As he hurries home
To his lighted window.

The night seems blacker,
The water deeper.

Hair Standing Moments on Highway 51 (A Fiction In Imagination)
google.com, police car
Red lights flash,
Police cars pull
on right shoulder
of the road,
High way 51,
groups of birds
flee,
icy cold air,
broken arms,
bloody hands,
the earth orbits,
the time runs,
passengers in the bus
close their eyes,
shutting out
hair standing
accidents.
It is good
that nobody
is dead!
Safe driving
is key.
someone believe that:
police = Jing ' Cha, wonderful names...

The Hinge of Spring by Kay Ryan
The jackrabbit is a mild herbivore
grazing the desert floor,
quietly abridging apring,
eating the color off everything.
Rampant-height or lower.
.
Rabbits are one of the things
Coyotes are for. one quick scream,
a few quick thumps,
and a whole litter area,
shoots up blue and orange clumps.

The Raindrops of Words
Oval face, thin lips,
Far-sighted black eye pools shine,
Innocence to dine.
.
Cold wind, whinning mind,
Hearts filled with sunflower deed,
Dream 4 star-lit ray.
.
Poetry books, pages,
concrete or soft words, ages,
Friendship, Facebook, fun!

Leaves In Autumn By Major M. M. Wittmair
Google.com
Leaves fall from the trees;
Winds start blowing cold;
Shadows getting longer,
People feeling old...
~
Clouds are high in heaven,
Leaves fall to the ground;
Mice and ants go hiding,
Birds are southward bound...
~
Skies now fully covered,
Clouds are hanging low;
Leaves build fluffy carpets,
Covered soon by silent snow...
~
Flakes descending, silent,
Earth is wearing white;
Trees are standing naked,
Leaves are out of sight...

We Need A Real Recovery, Who Can Help? Romney or Obama?
Google.com
Unexpected
natural disasters hurt,
It is not about risks or stormy power,
It is about fate, or plight,
That's defined by fortune,
and illustrated by thread bound to us,
A violent and stormy weather
produces homeless populations,
plus huge losses in properties,
business operations,
men and women turn powerless
and cannot be able to think in one single way,
Dark, cold,
Pale, Sallow,
These cannot be false,
as far as my eyes can see,
I see distress, silent screams.

Haiku on Stoat
Google.com
Stoat, animal eater,
Haunts, kills, swallows, and digests,
The process is rare.
.
Go hidden day time,
Wander about the woods at night,
Lots of preys in sight.
.
Life goes in cycles,
Stoat eats raw meat, no defeat,
What cold blood sucker.
.
He could die, so soon,
If he chooses to give in,
He is tiger, boom!

Depths
Google.com
Doubts keep forming a shadow
in my mind, I
wish to know why.
At times they block my sight
and make me hide
or cry.
Words swell and expand
like petals from a rose,
emotions run dry,
then wet,
At the speed of a thunder storm,
Life is a soap opera
that drags our heart strings
in depth.

Resting Place By Noel Kyra Lanier

The bird in her heart
thrust itself
strongly toward the sky,
But
Towering wind to its head
arranged for the nice trunk
of the willow tree.

Rain Off The Chestpain In Human Relation!
Google.com
when
worries and troubles our tempers
raise and careless remarks brings us moments
of pain,
there is balm to our spirit, like words
of encouragement in poetry, as we walk pass
drips of cold, petty rain.
.
It's an ease to one's emotional burdens and
doubts are replaced by hope, the day springs
anew.
The clean air admits far version and
the tears of the Angels have altered all
matters to offer insights pure.
