Branch of an Old Tree
Branch of a old tree
extends itself like God's hand;
blessed she walks on
**
Blessed she walks on
as birds peep out of their nests;
branch of an old tree
**
Branch of an old tree;
remains of a kite dangle
in the summer winds..

Also for 3 WW..... carcass, geek, slash
His Entry for 3WW
Acting like a Geek
lost in his speeding thoughts
he kills the mosquito
and slashes the carcass
with a sharp edged pencil
And then he sits and thinks
makes his fingers dance,
keying in the computer
his entry for 3WW
and boy, doesn't he succeed...
Well, your guess
is as good as mine , may be better
only you can tell..

ReplyDeletethese are beautiful images in the first three haiku then dark and broddy in the poem well done
ReplyDeleteHow beautiful it is to tell stories of simple glances in nature. Who wouldn't feel blessed to hear the cheeping of chicks in a nest overhead.
ReplyDeleteWriting a poem about pencil stabbing a mosquito to death is very surreal creative and humorous. Loved it...my favourite kind of madness!
ReplyDeleteHow sad to see the kite-eating tree...
