My own watercolor painting.
remote mountain lake

sparkles in spring’s noontime sun

for God’s eyes alone

My own watercolor painting.
angry storm clouds
hammering rain
smothers frothing sea
drowns
hope of escape

last date
love fades away
heart breaks

alone
same fucking song
yen gone

folklore
old history
closed door

sad ashes scattered

upon placid lake’s waters

soul sinks into peace

old home slumbers peacefully

dreams of coming spring

Culling

cold comes

but also goes

for some



oaks hold

naked, yet proud

brave, bold



death claims

the weak and old

…life’s game

What Was Lost

Posted on February 11, 2023 by jai

adrift on barren bitter boats
two lonely souls pass in the night
blind to the other’s face
never knowing what was lost
to the waves of the storm-tossed sea

Never Tell

Image my own watercolor painting.
his dead body rests
beneath gloomy cypress trees
that will never tell
of the hatchet in his skull
nor the sin he committed

Image my own watercolor painting.

at height of summer
near a seldom-traveled road
house sprawls lazily
lulled by feasting, buzzing bees…
wildflower banquet

view of my backyard
fog creeps with darkness

permeates sleeping backyard

wakes winter morning
