Soup! What a treasure
Hot and steamy a delight
In the winters night-

~ Soup

      
Basking in the sun
Dread, pain and agony gone
Dreamless sleep!

~ Death

      
Crimson vines of blood:
A ghostly bow of wind
Ensnared! In the cold-

~ Unknown

      
Dark and silent 
The cicada cries-
Chirp Chirp! Silence again.

~ Summer's Night

      
Leaves flattering erratically 
Thud! Foliage descent
Calm Leaves again

~ Anxious

      
Turmoil in the Sheol
Shriek - A right red hand appears
Lost, Forever Lost.

~ Sheol

      
Grey fish in the blue.
No ray, comes through
Sunflower withers!

~ Cloudy Day

      
Squiggly lines-- 
Boards; with alien's marks.
I squint! It's math.

~ Math

      
A Tireless Ant.
Then, bird in the sky; wings wide.
Swoosh -- Falling Chestnut.
~ Work and Holiday

      
Bright azure blue tent
with cotton Candy Cruise's--
The dog barks.
~ The Sky
