Tarnished Strings

all of them...
every one
responses to you
birthed from uncertainty
penned in claret ink
whisked in my heart

an avowal

each turn of phrase
discourses to you
taken from sincerity 
set in derisory concerto
yet
   strummed... 
        on tarnished strings

Ten Rainy Ones

a single sunny day
 is powerless
if not having followed
 ten rainy ones


~csr

A Gift

a glint of divine
being in the moment… the
present... is a gift

Understanding

yes,
some things...
  i hurry
  and or
  wish would tarry.
as
  i lack…
understanding.

Withered by Twilight

we are like blossoms
what brilliance in the first light
withered by twilight

Logs

trees
broad, magnificent
stretching, swaying, budding
leaves, bark, acorn, sprout
lumber, falling, nursing
nurturing, towering
logs

Build Again

when building sandcastles...
it is the groundwork
  that is most essential.
to take care in the formation…
      of the footing.
 though
     one cannot at all times
         perceive imperfections
             in the sand, 
            predict strong winds
         or
            be prepared for
            rogue waves.
and yet…
all we endeavor
     seems to be
       much like sandcastles.

the key is in accepting
    when it all comes crashing down...
to properly utilize the rubble

and build again
