Athens

light

Dinner time.
The evening frog
By the light bulb.

blue

Look! blue butterflies!
Over there, even more.
Where's the parade?

sand then sea

">

even

Even pity 
For the poisoned 
Cockroach, reviled.

roses

Where have I put lost mind?

Next to roses

Or cockroaches?

air

Faucets of cricket

Dripping into the air,

Off, and on again.

time

Across time zones
My indifferent Swatch 
Ticks off time on Earth.

rice

Rain storm last night.

Sound of rice paper crinkling,

Dreams of house on fire.

soap

Outdoor shower,

Looking for a bar of soap

Finding the moon.

moon

  

Full moon

Confused

By week of rain. 

sunday

An empty Sunday, 
Waiting in vain for the Muses,
Please ring your bells.

cautious

Cautious rain,

Even more cautious; birds

Hiding in the trees.



 

green

Only the kangaroo
Makes
The lawn green.

feathers

Wind ruffles feathers
Over the sand carefully

Thin magpie with limp.

petals

While trimming rose bush

Memory of your petals,

The throbbing leaves.

crazy!

Always pessimist,

This guy drives the clouds crazy!

Smell the air they say.

beach

Dog-doo on the beach

Plastic bags and tied with bows.

No dog would do this.

moan

Under starry night
I would push your buttons
to hear your moon moan.

wide

Bougainvillea
Year after year grows,
Now, as wide as me!

daft

Tonight, just a fly screen
Protecting me from you,
Daft moth.

ducks

The hard rain
Who can hear the ducks on the pond...
The biting mosquitos?

blinking

Tiny green eyes

Wifi box blinking all night

Watching over dreams.

koala

Tonight's sleep broken,
A leopard growl from baby
Faced koala bear.

moist

Invisible bugs
Tickling the moist grass,
The laughing rain!

horse

Pig squealing loudly..

I always think it’s a horse,

but only at first.

dawn

Koukaburra dawn
The silent trees cracked wide
Under weight of laugh.

death

Death's cloud

Pasted upon the pale sky,
Who's tragic X ray?

silver

Through starry night sky
Sealed in a silver capsule,
Guy next to me snores.

hope

Fishing boats,.. lit up!
Poised on the Indian sea.
The night: full of hope.

pond

Geese on the pond

Your serenity confounds

Me, with broken wing.

plastic

Twelve geckos I see,

Walls and ceilings their playground,

So real, like plastic!
