beautiful artwork
painstakingly created
each brush stroke a prayer

nsectivores, carnivores, herbivores, omnivores, lamb, feed, suck, chew, spring, anything, know, sometimes

 

 

i don't know anything about
insectivores carnivores herbivores
omnivores or spring lambs
i just like to suck butter scotch toffee
chew mints feed my goldfish and  sometimes
i water my ferns

 

Friends

this was yours
i still have this cassette
you still have my husband

Sunday Scribblings 2

Francis Cabrel - Je l'aime a mourir [Lyrics]

it's your birthday
a lot of changes in 6 years
from mauritian swamps
to beanstalks
from benedictions to tangos
from zapping around in a french motor
to lying gravely ill in a hospital bed

i hope you are surrounded
by all the love you richly deserve
on this your special day and all days

may God bless you always
and keep you safe

from a sheet of paper

Sunday's Whirligig

woodland pool edge drift lover passion
count find twilight wheeling wander lighter



 twilight in the woodland
at the pool's edge
her thoughts drift lighter now
cart wheeling in her head
her mind wandering
she wanted to find a lover with passion
someone charming and generous
someone who did not count
the bill 100 times
before he paid the waiter

gossamer wing'd
spindly blue beauty
takes a break

the pause
in a dragonfly's glide
noon shadows

the holy word
the way to live in peace
still - no one listens

a mystery
her enigmatic smile
forever alluring

Full Circle

rainbow  autumn seagull
crane cherry blossom love
sunflower blues sky clouds
butterfly nectar beer

a double rainbow
putting on an autumn show
for the lone seagull

a crane flies
with a cherry blossom sprig
love in  pastel pink

the sunflower
stands tall against the blue sky
blocking out the clouds

a butterfly
floats on the nectar froth
of a cold beer

Monday Morning

sun birds peck
the tumbling river notes...
evening raga

Kala Ramesh



morning raga
even the sun birds smile
when ravi plays

a lover of doves
painted flowers and women
with sprinkles of sunshine
