Missing By David Wagoner

 

stand still. The trees ahead and bushes beside you
are not lost. Wherever you are is called Here,
And you must treat it as a powerful stranger,
Must ask permission to know it and be known.
The forest breathes. Listen. It answers,
I have made this place around you.
If you leave it, you may come back again saying Here.
.
No two trees are the same to Raven.

No two branches are the same to Wren.
If what a tree or a bush does it lost on you,
You are surely lost. stand still. The forest knows
where you are, you must let it find you.

Mind your Own Business Please!

 

People make all sorts of decisions for me,
They assume, reason, decide, conclude,
for me, they interfere without
consulting my opinions or emotions,
They believe their wisdom,
and plot my future based on their views,
Does it work?
They don't care!
Do they benefit from such?
They make blank stare,
simply enjoy seeing me in blizzard weather.
...
what's best form me?
I know it better,
Thus, no matter how great your plans are,
I will walk my road, on my own, and go far,
and sing my type of song, like a pop star.

Polluted Water By Mimi Orchard Peony (Pollution=Wu Ran)


Fish cannot survive on polluted water,
Despite how wide the water spreads,
They cannot breathe, which does matter,
In space mixed with poisonous seaweeds.
.
The drive to live need not to pretend,
Troubled waters need to be cleaned,
Fish cannot survive on polluted water,
Despite how wide the water spreads.
.
No longer can we nearly live with no error,
Uncertainty leads to hollow grace,
I saw it in the mirror,
I saw it in my face.
Fish cannot survive on polluted water.

Eyes

 

Eyes blink,
The wonder of happiness inside.
.
Sometimes tears well up,
upon the fists of anger.
.
Sweetly, eye brows protect,
Ashes through the closing of eye lids.
.
If eyes open, wide and round,
All views are safe, new, and solid like pound.
.
when eyes close tight, and still,
mind goes home for rest, on a green hill.
.
Eyes are like doors,
they lead you to another place.
Eyes are windows,
they show distanced world via reading or traveling.

Diversity: We Must Celebrate Our Differences!


How many people understand the concept
of diversity and implement it?
Diversity does not mean that you give
up your space and human rights to minority
groups, diversity means that if one sees
differences in others (they could be the same
race or different), you respect their
individuality, instead of attacking,
belittling, or disapproving them.

Atlas The Book of Maps By Kay Ryan

 

Extreme exertion
isolates a person
from help,
Discovered Atlas.
Once a certain
shoulder-to-burden
ratio collapses,
there is so little
others can do:
they cannot
lend a hand
with Brazil
and not stand
on Peru.

Summer Chimes and Summer Wines by Ellen Ni Bheachain

 


 Listening to the summer chimes,
Of summer sounds of summer time,
Bringing all that nature is,
That shows and sounds like,
Summer chimes,

Chimes of soft winds,
Chimes of soft river streams,
Sounds that say of that time and season,
That summer time sounds so sweet,
It rings the sounds of summer chimes,
With rays of sunlight streaming by,

Summer chimes with summer wines,
Can be the momentum interludes of summer times,
When summer time is to be,
There in natures places,
Full of bloom and hidden places,
Where,
Listening to the summer chimes,
Of summer time,
And sitting and drinking,
A summer wine,

With the summer chimes,
And summer wines,
With summer and its nature sounds,
Bringing out the musical chimes,
Of summer sounds,
Along with summer chance,
And the per chance that evolves,
Bringing summer chimes,
With summer wines,
Of true summer chance,
With love intwined,
And summer wine,

So if per chance,
To meet again,
That evolves and begins,
From summer meets,
Bringing that summer chance,
To summer chimes,
With summer wines,
That begins and lasts,
Within in the hearts of those,
That let per chance happen,
And fall in love,

Then it will continue all year long,
For those that took the chance,
In summer chance,
And let the per chance,
Take it course,
And win,
For love to hear,
The summer chimes,
Sipping summer wine.

Schemes

  Chicago wedding, google.com

Schemes are sugar-coated pills,
They look young and yummy,
They dress up as baits
on a fishing pole,
Those who are caught
are unfortunate,
Decent fish swim in deep waters,
They are not easily fooled
by freely offered artificial treats.
