soothing their angst
a mother’s lullaby
submits them to sleep
———-
taste of those lips
fall into submission
dripping with desire

Daily moments – May 29/17 peace (troibun)
“Compassion is the foundation of peace.” Amma
The old woman toiled in her garden for days, her heart filled with such hope…
Planting seeds
deep enough
free from foul play
Planting seeds
filled with love
forming strong roots
Deep enough
as a love struck poet
versed with compassion
Free from foul play
only white doves
spreading world peace

Rose petaled room (troibun). Daily moments May 27-17
The hall was immense and the mood expectant. Hushed chatter all about was the background sound with the occasional exclamations and hugs of recognitions. Everyone was gathering in parties of two’s, five’s or more. It was hard to see who was alone since “loners” smiled at many faces here and there.
The tension was mounting and the hushed sounds became like clattering plates in the kitchen of a cafeteria.
She was in this city for the first time and longed to see her favourite Rock Star. You know the type of music to your ears that moves you? Do you remember your first encounters with “outstanding” and “rocks your socks off”…hmmmm?
A bell sounds and there is complete silence…the musicians are in place, the fans and VIP fans await…
Blessed
with her presence
the crowd fell silent
blessed
the room filled
with her fragrance
With her presence
transcending
a mother’s love
The crowd fell silent
numbed by her radiance
only hearts beating

Daily Moments – May 17 2017 Lilac trees (Troibun)
The ride home last night was a bit annoying. People talked too loudly on the Métro and the bus; the scent of ingested brew permeated the bus and by the time she stood in line to get off, a young man (clueless and tipsy) staggered backwards on her left foot…yes, she was wearing sandals. However, stepping off the bus made it all go away…
pleasant breeze
enchanting scents float
lilac blossoms
pleasant breeze
cool and refreshing
washed away old scents
enchanting scents float
facing the bus station
five lilac trees
lilac blossoms
graceful and alluring
sway erotically
