freeze my heart with beauty
but I look at the black top
is it wet or black ice
My terror is ice
slip slidding away

stunning picture

Washington cherries
A sweet summertime delight
can't wait to taste them

there is enough raindrops
for every little flower
and the smiles begin
as it all unfolds

(i've never been accused of writing Haiku)

oranges peel themselves in secretcy
soon found by the aliens
the crushing begins
we get sticky

sevenly sensations
come from the cosmos
into an earthlings heart
the soul is set free

leaves of the tree are falling
onto a frozen fround
colder than your heart

Crocus buds shiver
Mother Nature’s cold shoulder
artic winds that kill.

a frozen branch
as long as the night
enters lonliness

frigid breath in ear
icicle words piece my heart
when you said goodbye

Five limbs stretch out to
Reach each other seven times.
Infinity now.

i'm bad at this
so i shall leave
and no one shall grieve

(i ,as usual fall off the rules and know when to exit)

You are not bad at this AP.. your verses are beautiful!

--------
feel free to write your entire heart
or any part of it, any beat, any half
or complete thought, any word play
the way your pen leads you and i
will follow to read, weed out your
ideas with a careful view, renew
my adventure again and again by
blending my passion with yours
and when we are through, i will
look for you silent again on the
surface of brilliant earth.

there are no rules
for poetic fools
like me or you
for that matter.

more is less,
less is more,
or otherwise
the latter.

more or less
if ya get my gest.
blessed are the poets.

plant a seedling.
sun and rain
will grow it.
