Looking at the explosion clouds.
There is a complete void of sound.
The September trees
are diminishing green,
in their lazy lean.
We are not just alive,
to satisfy hungers.
To examine bruised blunders.
Nature satisfies us too.
Bombs of peace in a sky cornflower blue.
I love explosion looking clouds.

Sitting
Sinking
Into cloud landing

Falling through
Still sleeping
In white dust

Will my toes
Ever touch
The ground

Or will I be
Stuck - eyes closed
Forever

In a daydream
Arii Mar 27
I wander across a silent land
As a miserably lonely man
Following the call of
An early morning bird

With nothing in my head,
And nothing in my hands

The bird, in all its morning cheer
Chirps and trills for all to hear
It sings even though there is no crowd,
Its song is as magnificent as it is loud

It holds its head up, proud and high,
It looks up daringly at the sky,
Like the clouds are challenging it
To fly

It leaves the branch it rested on
Wings spreading as it took off
And I still remain a lonely wight,
But maybe I, too, can take flight.

snowless morning
worries of losing a friend
wake me up

a flock of pigeons endlessly
circles the church tower

twilight grasses
each of them sways
in its own rhythm

lost in the clouds
I study poems of old masters
Seth Cruz Mar 13
Clouds blanket the sky.
The wind toussles beneath them
and splashes my face.
If the rain did not say it,
Then it is no truth
For sunshine lies,
With it's promise of life in youth.

So I listen to the clouds.
If it isn't true at your lowest, it won't be true at your highest.
Daddy dibble-dabbled in his fatherly duties
knew he cared and that we mattered to him
but who'd’ve thought I'd be the wizard with the words
based on his influence //  lay the magic in the music
cause I handle the flow, no question
focused on growth, til I’m known for wise investments
To age with grace, I’m manifesting it all
Til it evolves, yeah, it’s so incredible
To be engulfed in the process of conscious involvement
Know it takes ***** cause it could take a whole lifetime to profit
Even when results are losses, mark your target
The stars shine brightest in the darkest, farthest hours of the night
til it's time to harvest, plant your seeds, you’ll shine regardless
Trust your garden; seen the tallest trees withstand the breeze
‘cause their roots run deep into abysses
That’s an analogy, you better find your niche
Every step you take is a trail you’ll leave
But when you find that edge, you’ll find it’s peace
and when the journey ends, you’ll stay wondering if you were rushing in
Did you have separate plans? All the time you had turned into memories
And it's just you in the corner singing, regrettably, "Me olvidé de vivir."

over snow fields
chimney smoke versus clouds
                         racing shadows
haiku inspired
[original notes from 02/25

shadows of clouds move over snow
versus the shadows of smoke from
an institute chimney]

she brings the rain, soft and slow,  
a hush of silver, a gentle glow.  
yes, i care for springtime bright,  
but care for nothing in her light.  

she brings the rain, the world turns grey,  
yet melts the clouds, she clears the way.  
in dawn’s embrace, so cool, so wide,  
she brings the rain, i stand inside.
inspired by a song i heard in the show euphoria
