haiku

his name swirls
on tip of her tongue
cherry stem knot

morphing into open ended affirmation

Since open ended question form is the most powerful vehicle of affirmation, I morph the last post into:

How to receive, even better, everything as a blessing or blessing in disguise

How to be, even stronger, in my knowing that awareness is my security

Quote of mine

I receive everything as blessing or blessing in disguise. Awareness is my security.

Metaphysics Note

I am knowing. Love is true nature. While Fear is not a feeling, rather a limiting misbelief. Expansiveness sprouts from harmonizing contradictions. I allow Love to invite Fear, saying, face to face: I love you, thank you for taught lessons and now you may go and relax. I am in command. The way of infinity.

haiku

weightlessness of sound
as I dive to know home
wind chime

micropoetry

with extreme clarity
breeze lifting a mountain
flutter of dew

micropoetry

stilettos from steel
the sound of his wound

micropoetry

cherry blossom or breeze
who is first in coquetry
her silk blouse

storytelling

summer night
the dog licks the stars from her palms
length of his gaze

storytelling

sweet evening breeze across her scars
all fades away to rebirth the north star

storytelling

fluttering in the breeze
between hummingbird and his muse
the pull of ecstasy

micropoetry

in silk kimono
a riot of flowers toward fingertips
she undresses

micropoetry

just out of curiosity
day moon

haiku

feather
in palm
I weigh heaven

storytelling

the elongated hum of a fading lullaby
whose swollen words are out of place
she sits in its perfect shade

micropoetry

crescent moon and venus
so close so far
punctuation on empty sky

haiku

at the periphery of resurrection
the rise from separateness
with soft eyes gaze

micropoetry

holding the sky together
dew of a white rose

micropoetry

across the expanse of birdsongs
being and its tenderness

micropoetry

off the beaten path
inner stillness found

micropoetry

butterflies weave a meadow in his palm
with her breeze

storytelling

wearing only the hum of his scent
along with the breeze
her body bursts into birdsongs

storytelling

like a mantra
full moon beads
reciting her skin

between fingertips
his alchemist breath

haiku

clear sky flutters in white tinge
butterfly
winged breathlessness

micropoetry

amidst the black hole of his sharp gaze
her reflection shimmers

storytelling

fresh twin cherries
dangling from her necklace
their bumpy ride

he smiles
closer to sun and breeze

storytelling

the vast spaces blooming between atoms
anchor more of consciousness
I am the paradox that stretches all meaning

micropoetry

sunset
tilting the horizon inward

haiku

sun talks
in stars blooming on water
I believe

haiku

dawn
seeping through the window
of me

The way of wings

Observing

Love Istanbul

Blue Mosque & Orbs

Haiga Sophia & Orbs

haiku

murmur of dry leaves
in the swirl back to cloud
bigger droplet

quote of mine

What lies in the periphery uncreates the distortion of what lies in the center.

storytelling

whole river drowning
in a tear that wells up
but not the sound
of a swaying willow

where would I be without the breeze

storytelling

gardenia breeze racing full moon
ripples in her silk night gown

haiku

sky wobbles
across pond
afternoon breeze

micropoetry

brightness of koi leaps to poetry
sunlit reading

for my different moods
one maple tree

stirring the sky
with her wet toes
beautiful day for teasing

whisper of leaves
applause, multiple rounds
eyes smiling

micropoetry

page turner
breeze

haiku

dew wobbling
in palm
baby's first steps

micropoetry

the many ways of clouds
falling on my palm

micropoetry

how far do lyrics drift
after listening
I catch my breath

storytelling

eyes dark planets
tiny heart in middle of stitches line
lip sewed face
child draws
witnessed pain no word

storytelling

dew slips on his cheek
her energetic field
without a body
muted sharing
at dawn

haiku

alone walking in the wind
bullfighting
how many piercing me

haiku

curling phase
tip of rose petal
he feels her toes
as they kiss

storytelling

a thousand star shimmering
tonight and I am so ticklish

the feel to explode into glitter
of gazes that notice in silence

micropoetry

he offers a home to the sounds from her anklet

Reflective Qs

Why to opt for sarcasm when the other option is shared joy? How distorted is the belief that fading others joy means fading your own sadness?

storytelling

Metaphysics Note

You instantly transform a challenge into sacred ground once you are in allowance to receive its revelation.

micropoetry

even her shadow speaks
of flowers and butterflies
overhanging his love is

haiku

falling ever deeper
the longing in reed
of I am presence

storytelling

the wind blossoms
she writes
of her essence

how vibrancy vibrates
with unseen colors

gatekeeper to flows
depth of wholeness
in hollow reed

with sounds from elsewhere
her paper plane ventures the unknown

poetry ~
how much you are a paper plane!

micropoetry

dawn
I gather dews from your lips

micropoetry

coquelicot shade
the space between her feet
she drips sensuality

storytelling

heavy with its fog
autumn begs for a chat
even a monologue will do
gaze reaching fingertips
lost and found in fog
everything is a monologue

micropoetry

her face goes through many seasons
he plays the piano
I observe the manifested sound in them

haiku

away from judgement
into allowance
the river flows

haiku

twinkle little star
I hear my mom sings
clarity of midnight sky

storytelling

love making
she talks to her cells
to open up even more
and hears her hip-bones
moving outward to birth
her touching his soul

haiku

post love making
how much me, how much you
such a retrieval of wonder

micropoetry

and all morph into flower bud ...
she lays her tight fist into his wide open palm

micropoetry

used to be unseen
she avoids mirrors

micropoetry

her divorced parents are antiques collectors
how to define "precious"

micropoetry

she halts her breath to let a shooting star cross
