PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

*1*
The thorn harms not
the respectful bee.
He takes rose nectar
and then leaves her be.

*2*
Is Sabbath respected
by the Sun?
Does he refuse to glow?
Is Sabbath honored by
the stream?
Does she decline to flow?
*
*3*
From Jesus' crown of thorns
grow infinite rosebush thrones

*4*
Round wonders flow from
the tip of a magic wand.
Spherical music flows
from the tip of a baton.
A world of talk flows
from the metal of a plug.
Angels pay back infinitely
kindness to a bug.

TEN SHORT POEMS

They must have
known Ed
when they coined
the word edify

(to Hawk)

*
Time reveals all love
that's hidden.
In suddenness...surprise
it comes unbidden.

The dawning sun dissolved
when he suddenly kissed
the lacy bridal veil
of morning
harbor mist
*
Divine Weaver
has left clumps of wild
grass
as mangers for
ground nesting birds

(to Dennis Weaver and his
loved ones)
*
Behind the chinese screen
of waterfall
lie cave sanctuaries
Behind kudzu green
of vinefalls
lie high rock eagle aeries
Behind the fleeting
cloud curtains
lies sun evercheery
*
From the ripe seeds of
blooms of thistle
Spirit Wind blows
his epistles
*
Branched lightning
with more members
than four armed Brahma
reveals the whole sky
in radiant diarama
*
Godward souls
having left their bodies
don't tarry
in memorial
cemeteries
*
In an all-grey sky
was a cloud
with a sunbeam straw
sucking up the sea
*
Starlings opine
in the woods of pine
No matter their politics...
their joy is divine

*
Sleep inducing lullabies
of the wheels' refrain
of the all receiving train
Peace invoking mantras
in the drip drip drip refrain
of the merciful rain
Pain melting melodies
in the refrain
of the waves
of the main
*
the watery trail
of the leafbound snail
sparkles in the sun
behind his tail

-Saiom Shriver-

(In reality, all beings
love all beings..
no matter what clouds
hide the sun of truth)
