undulating greens -
the picnic spread billows out
flowered table cloth

peppered fingers licked 
a chow made by children's hands -
chopped green tomatoes 

only the green leaves
from the poui tree assail
school on vacation

Friday Writings #37.Stay Happy And Alive.

 

Growing up there were always dogs in our family. But as an adult I never wanted pets. I always tell people: children and plants I am happiest with.
So yesterday i went to the NALIS library in Port of Spain to read my book 'The Naughty Angel' and conduct a haiku workshop with a group of children, who were happy to listen and to participate. There was joy shared.

masked faces listen -
a story read aloud to
eager ears and minds

its question time now -
hands shoot up everyone wants
to give an answer

let's write a haiku -
Enough words on the white board
poems abstracted

abandoned church -
the way trees blossom
any which way

overgrown grasses 
a dirge of war torn days -
when the people fled

bricks and stones -
sturdy enough to hold
tightly emptiness

Friday Writings #36: Sunset:

how golden these clouds
to a passing day causing
wonder of glare

to stop and watch
ponder with nostalgia
words and colours

tagging friendship
fit to savour and preserve
in time's passing

she could be

a poet -

Minnie's reverie


a sky painted pink

when morning becoming states

her whimsy of day


who can control her

now grey now azure and then

fully of fluffly clouds


sunset and the gold

of a thousand glittering

wishes to dazzle
