Two names carved
in a heart long ago -
the old oak tree
in the village square
full of memories
#poetrycommunity #Poetry #Poem #gogyohka
The call
of the fox
stretches
the long
Summer night
#poetrycommunity #Poetry #Poem #gogyohka
in the park the traffic fades
and too...the people,
the world offers solitude -
and I alone with the butterflies,
occupy the vastness.
#poetrycommunity #Poetry #Poem #gogyohka
The candle flame flickers
and dances on the wall
like something from a dream -
thunder in the distance
birds preening wings on rooftops
#poetrycommunity #Poetry #Poem #gogyohka
When all the noise is silenced
what pulls your soul
what makes you live -
how easy is it for you to forgive
those who caused you pain
#poetrycommunity #Poetry #Poem #gogyohka
The wind moves
in mysterious ways
scooping up all in it's path -
The sun amused looks on
from behind a cloud
#poetrycommunity #Poetry #Poem #gogyohka
Zugewachsen,
das Tor kaum zu sehen -
ein Kind sagt Dornröschen
und nicht einer
dreht sich um.
With petals all a flutter
and yellow skirt of silk
pretty little flower
flirting with the bees -
you make me smile
#poetrycommunity #Poetry #Poem #gogyohka
fresh mowed lawn and
fresh brewed coffee
making happy sense
of happy scents
spring

Märzwolken
lohnen sich
für einen zweiten Blick
dieses Raumschiff
zum Beispiel
summer blue sky
blooms in spring pink profusion
whippy winter winds
and then there's us
in our autumn years

Colorful plastic flags
planted by workers
now decorate
the bicycles
of summer.

trickling down these cheeks
as tears ... pools of poetry
collecting
salty reservoirs
of wisdom

Wrote this 3 years ago today. Seemed appropriate to share it as February comes once more to a close...
what was
no longer will be ... and yet
what can be is late
for its appointment
with time

When men
tidy up garages
the time stands still
and therefore some
do look younger.
Those birds
that live in my tree
sang me a song -
I didn't understand the words
but it was beautiful

Das Relief
wurde gereinigt,
nun helle Gewänder
und manche
lächeln sogar.
Auf dem Markt
ruft ein Händler
"Schöne Tulpen!"
und Krümel für Spatzen
gibt es auch.
some screws
a belt buckle
in a treasure box
finds along hedges
under benches
