Yellow lemons 
Among rain dripping leaves
Look tempting to eat 
 
Yellow bananas 
Flown from tropical Panama 
Brighten winter days 
 
Yellow plums
In the neglected garden
Are for nimble rats.
 
Yellow grapefruit 
Sterile as tethered mule 
Are pink inside. 
 
Xanthous fluffy bird
Flaps yolk coloured wings
Picks the yellow fruit 
 
Word 
 
Snowdrops are the white
You see in rainbows 
 
Silky rain is the liquid 
Roses love 

 
Simply told tales 
Are leaves in rivers
Floating poetry. 
 
Mighty flood 
Ocean is your destiny 
Deadly her embrace 
 
The creek so still 
On silky shrouds of dust 
Trout float belly up. 
 
Deep in the forest 
Where chainsaws are unknown
An elk swims in a lake. 
 
A fugitive echo 
Escaped loose lips 
Drowned in a mere 
 
In poets workshops 
Egalitarian roses bloom
Looking as twins. 

 
Salt is the sea
Kissed her deeply
And found out.
 
Garden pond
Hesitant tiny steps
Child lost.
 
Ploughed sea
Have no potholes
Only steep inclines. 
 
There is no wisdom
In a bullied child's eyes 
Only resentment 
 
Busy road
Road work
Summer.
 
 
Cycling is healthy
If you avoid 
Busy roads. 

Afghanistan
Where democracy
Lost its morality.    
 
  
Love's apathy
Shadow dancing
With Eva Peron.  
  
 
Sun drenched wind
Chases cold shadows
Off the road.
 
  
Sadness 
is a butterfly
not prepared for winter 
 
  
Red bag, blue legs
Misery in painted face
Street walker's winter. 

The kitchen clock 
Ticks slow in December 
Too fast in May 
 
In a hollow
Behind a giant oak 
Porous snow shrunk.
 
 
In the freezer 
The boy keeps a memory
A snowball.
 
 
Discarded love
Under the tree of hope 
Fertilize the soil. 
 
 
Late year butterfly
On the window ledge
Waits in vain.
