beginnings  glowing
dawn of this day luminous
roseate path light

Prince of Thieves

Look out upon the world

Child

You can see why our claws grow large

Apex of the chain, no fate of lambs

The chaser, the one to charge

It takes no intelligence to stalk a plant
The cunning and patience are ours
We live by being silent death
Opportunity is never far
Take the dharma with your fangs
Remember who you are

Gifted

Arise again

Our adventure begins

All creatures astir

Spread wings for the wind

Catch the swift current

Fly with wide fins

Run for pure joy

Sun climbing within

A new gift each day

To ignore it, a sin

ICED

The weirding white woman

Has magick'd the fields

With nary a sound at all

The power of the 

Spells she wields

All the world's color

Forstall'd

Eerie and pale
Your breath she steals
Soul from body
Called
Heart crystallized
Your doom she seals
You shatter as you
Fall

Sparkling encasement

The flame frozen, death prolonged

Wants the sun's release 

Haiku

Silent frozen night

Fibonacci thorns softened 

Hibernation dreams

People say that at a certain age, you just 

Stop caring

I wonder what age that is!
