Majestic Pine

December
the chemistry between
my ordinary self
and
a majestic pine

once again

struck
amidst the
coldest winter
air

June, I Said Hello to the Sun

When the first wave of summer heat came

in June, I set out alone

to greet the Sun

I wanted to see how faraway the horizon stretched

I wanted to know how tall maples and pines grew

I relished exuberant color of green

I rode on swift gusts of wind

The dandelion on the sidewalk - whom I secretly loved

nodded to me without knowing my ambition

the roaming clouds - whom I adored unreservedly, 

joined my journey without knowing my destination 

Oh June, I said hello to the Sun 

telling her that I was ready to write 

another song of

myself

The Scent of Gardenia

The scent of the gardenia

sneaked out from the shadows
collided with my morning ramble
spilled joy

all-over

the leafy garden of 

May

Lush Green of May

Peace

is depicted by

the lush green of May

overflowing

from a distant field  

into 

the tender heart of 

Spring
