Round and round it goes;
Where it stops, nobody knows.

Like An Omen
It is mid January.
A bird happily sings from a lone branch.
Silence begins humming its mournful tune, as well,

Glorious foliage unveils
Winding stream drifts yon
Curvaceous pathway taunts man
Rugged, yet feminine blend.

Atop their sternness
Standing tall and gleaming proud:

Taint yesterday’s
Warm visit
Today’s chill
Makes for an

Frogspawn floating in clear jelly ~

As if some strange force

Shone from the swaying limb
Like a diamond on
