• ethereal tree

    Byjucasso

    ethereal tree in the forrest cathedral
    shimmer winsome bird wing
    crisp Autumn air bring slim stem
    blue azure grass capture frost
    the cost of losing you
    lost in the shadows
    rain like tears dripping droplets on branches
    strip the evening mottled leaf
    that fill the ground with grief
    creature stir black fur buries to ashes
    shadow of a darker moon cry to sea
    waves crash bluer
    i never meant to hurt the wonder
    it was a wonderful summer
    salt in the wound plunder put the mood asunder
    fire brimstone thunder
    upset depth deep dark sorrow
    forgive an ancient debt
    that may free us from regret tomorrow.

  • bare branches

    Byjucasso

    design regard with resolve
    ubiquitous solicitous narcissism
    in the heart of rhythm
    a mannerism
    commit decision
    darkness covers exhibition
    suffer intangibles harsh conditions
    rigid mind encounters religion
    anti-up inhibition
    please please yourself
    sing songs to sooth
    teach me all you know
    research your soul
    clip wings in a folder
    we are one year older
    my handsome winsome soldier
    love you need you know you
    thank you for your time of day
    leaves settle down from skies of gray
    flowers gone soon
    worship the bloom
    until the leaves fall to the ground in autumn
    forsaking bare branches.

  • branches bending low

    Byjucasso

    overwhelmed by spells
    quell a realm bring rings as worn
    by trees in the center
    where the heart sleeps

    waiting for an answer in fall
    often watching the moon
    I think of you

    celebrations run the year
    we try to hear the underlying
    undying word of love as clear
    as a fantasy forgives forever

    cool and crisp windy ground
    whip and chill the dirt to flirt
    leafy crinkled crunch snap
    branches bending low
    half asleep we wait for snow.

  • against the frost

    Byjucasso

    return yearning dawn
    hold golden sun tightly
    pearl white moon alight onyx skies
    opal stars sigh
    wish night brightly on
    chill and ice reduce streams to freeze
    upon the frozen bed fallen leaves
    limbs cold dark unrooted twigs bent
    frigid water reserve the pointy stem
    observe the curved shroud
    lifting her leaf torn head bowed
    black branch against the frost
    shuttering shattered shy sentiments
    slowly soulfully follow a haloed snow blown spin
    humbled by winters wound up wind
    wait for Spring.

  • a tapping tale

    Byjucasso

    this love of mine Spring cold
    icy road cover shady green
    flurries stream
    buds bitten back bare-wince of winter
    doe and deer dine on foliage frozen dinner
    sidewalk street sleet come down
    in sheets where murmurs meet
    stranger souls unique
    whisper in defeat
    pound pavement panic ploy
    faces in a mist exist in risk
    window tell a tapping tale
    branches lift their curly leaves like braided hair
    wind shaken green queen crown
    shift her vision to the ground
    hide the squawking hawk brave the raucous raven
    stalk the walk to hide the pride of talk
    fly to field to find a hastened haven
    on your own since you
    first weighed in
    no worry first day of Spring
    Sun will rise and set again
    a virtuoso on clarinet playing soft regret
    his winter ego melt the wealth of debt
    the weather will warm
    let go of stormy mourn
    unleash the senses kept
    that struck a glut of tears to pardon
    she is our Mother it is her Nature
    to find her way
    back to the garden.
