Family

I live among the trees

The lush greenery of global earth

Moonstone of glowing night

Monsoon is spreading its wings

The Mayflower of seasonal changes

God is among us

Watching the children grow

The Godspeed of everything

Poetry music nature of dappled earth

Family of flora and fauna.

As I sip my morning June

With coveted rain and blessing.

There’s burden in the smiling

Like raindrops it flinches

Like yesterday the ghosts come true

My flickering plastic summer days

The yellow bird is near me

The shortness of the very minute

The roses of short summer afternoon

Afterwards it was the darling summer

The garlands of birdsong days

My glory of new edged sorrow

A pink promise of cut throat spring

As the memories cut open the morning sun
