Ongoing Ballad of Lil’Queen

ONE BAAAD KITTY!

~

lil’ queen struts haughty

purring low, she’ll be naughty

feline on the prowl

this night ‘neath sil’vry moonlight

this kitty will have her way

    Final Vigil

    ~

    shrouded by rhetoric denying reality
    as earth tumbles towards finality
    witness the losing of the light
    the ever growing darkness
    the advance of the cold
    the time of endings
    death’s due vigil
    deep silence
    destroyed
    desolate
    gone
    sad
    ¥
    this is the winter of humanity

    Ripples

     
    Reflections
    ~
    memories of you
    ripples on a mirrored lake
    rise and drift gently
    into the golden sunlight
    carrying me on their crest

    Joie de Vivre
    ~
    clear blue summer sky
    deep azure crystalline lake
    cool breeze on my face
    fresh scent of water lilies
    ripples gently lap the boat
