Autumn-Kissed Valley River

In autumn’s grasp, the river softly flows,
Its rapids hum a song to fleeting days.
The bends reveal what only nature knows,
A world enshrouded in its golden haze.

The peaks, mist-veiled, stand watch through endless time,
While echoes linger in their ageless streams.
Their whispers weave a soft and fleeting rhyme,
To cradle dreams within the twilight beams.

Each leaf descends, its fiery hues alight,
A fleeting flame that burns, then fades away.
Yet nature sings through beauty’s sacred rite,
A tale of seasons in their sweet decay.

So twilight falls, its amber glow ascends,
And beauty’s tale a sacred truth transcends.

Russet Water of the Autumn Glade
 


The Song of the Reddish Stream

Upon the fields so fresh and wide,
Where autumn’s golden banners gleam,
A stream in scarlet robes does glide,
And whispers low its fleeting dream.

The trees, in firelit splendor dressed,
Stand sentinel in bright array,
Yet though they shine, they know no rest,
For autumn soon must slip away.

Beyond the meadows, rising free,
The hills with crimson forests burn,
A land of fading majesty,
Where time shall turn, and none return.

So sing, O stream, thy song once more,
For winter knocks upon the door.

Radiant Blooms in the Embrace of Night

Melody of Blooming

Within the hush where lotus petals rise,
a bloom unfolds from shadow into flame—
blue breath that sings beneath the twilight skies,
gold yearning stitched with red’s unspoken name.

The leaves, like guardians of what must grow,
lean toward the light yet cradle dusk within;
they know the ache of beauty’s ebb and flow,
how grace may dwindle, then begin again.

Each color tells of longing undisturbed,
a tender arc in stillness left to burn.
No haste, no cry, no voice to be unheard—
just form returning feeling, soft and stern.

So bloom, and let your silence be the thread—
the charm of time through petals softly spread.

Love Kiss

 In petal hush, a promise pressed,

Where light and longing softly rest,

Two lips of blush in dawn’s first gleam,

Embrace within a fragrant dream.


No thunderclap, no wind’s parade,

Just one still bloom in velvet shade,

Its tender hue, a whispered sigh—

A kiss that does not ask us why.


It leans into the golden breath,

Unfurling life, defying death,

And in that bloom, so small, so brave,

Lies all the love we’d ever crave.   

 

 Passing Love

 She does not turn, but leans into the light,

A bloom half-facing where the shadows fall.

Her fragrance clings to wings not yet in flight,

The hush before the heart can say it all.



She offers not an end, but slow goodbye,

A tenderness still resting on the air—

Not absence yet, but soft and asking why

The space between begins to feel so bare.



This love still warms, though gently pulls away,

Its golden thread unspools from hand to hand.

Not lost, not left—just drifting from today,

Still close enough the other understands.



So let it pass, not broken but set free,

A gift once shared that floats toward memory.

 

Past Love

 They bloomed beside each other once in time,

Two gentle hearts in parallel repose.

No need for vows, no reason, nor a rhyme—

Just closeness held as softly as a rose.



Now petals curve in separate, quiet arcs,

Their faces turned as if in silent prayer.

The space between them whispers faded sparks,

Not lost, but resting in the evening air.



No storm, no fall, no cruel or harsh goodbye—

Just tenderness that learned to let things be.

A love not gone, but settled in the sky,

Like stars that shine for those who choose to see.


 So let it rest where quiet hearts have bled,

A bloom once kissed, now glowing gold and red.

Charming tinies
 

Calla Lily
 


Calla Lily framed

Sanctum of Color

Within this bloom, a quiet temple grows,
Where hues like prayers ascend on silent breath—
A cobalt psalm, a blush in saffron throes,
Each petal shaped by time, desire, and death.

The lilies lean like sentinels of dusk,
Their stems entwined in green cathedral light—
A hush of violet, incense rich as musk,
Burnt umber fading into solemn night.

No voice is raised; the silence sings instead—
A hymn of flame, of dusk, of tender bloom,
Their grace not spoken but divinely spread
Across the frame—a votive at its tomb.

So let them stand, where reverence takes root,
And beauty dwells in luminous pursuit.

We were Irises in previous life

Where petals play

The morning drapes its shawl of golden haze,
And petals wake to hum the tune of spring.
They tilt and twirl beneath the sun’s warm gaze,
Like dancers poised on air’s soft murmuring.

No sorrow stirs within their violet hue,
No storm resides in yellow’s quiet gleam.
They bloom as though the world begins anew,
Each curve and fold a piece of gentle dream.

The shapes behind—a patchwork calm and bright—
Show how the world finds grace in quiet lines.

When bloom and pattern softly reunite,
The heart leans in, and harmony aligns.

So let them bloom, these whispers in the breeze,
A lyric formed from lines and fleur-de-lys.
