freezing winter night
when the whole world is asleep –
snow falls sweet and low

Happy end of the week, my friends

Happy end of the week, my friends

Gusty blowing winds
Tree leaves swirl around
Fall in old graveyard
Drying under snow
Green sprouts in Spring tide

rime of winter days
stranded banyan hibernates
through curtain of light

tulips in winter
folds blushing with snow powder

Of your tree so mighty,
I am a leaf so green and tiny;
Neither an apple nor a fig,
I hold on to a twig;
In winter I shiver and I freeze,
In summer I sway in the breeze;
Drenched in torrential rain,
I cry in grief and in pain;
Scalded in the burning sun,
I shrivel and I shun;
A creeper I long to mime,
My arms enlacing you;
Heavenly heights to climb,
My soul enrobing you.

Thank you for your visit my dear friends.

Tenderly wrapped in blue snow
A lingering scent
