Irish Blessing

May the sun be warm and kind to you;

The darkest night some star shine through;

The dullest morn a radiance brew;

And when dusk comes-God's hand to you!

What's there to smile about today? Thank God for the grace of poetry

a wine glass upturned

 gasps of upheaval spilling 

tears seep dripping wet

 to cloth of safety

lowly farmers wear in fields

 of sunflowers bold

 this upside down world -

 caught in another tempest

oh these winds of woe

 a flood emanates

 who will swab the decks of misery

who captains this ship

this stillness of windchimes

today's despair-
my dreams hang in windchimes
without a breeze

Cinderella Syndrome 16

...Now when the night came for the royal ball Cinderella ... the Cinder Maid had to help the two sisters to dress in their fine dresses and saw them drive off in the carriage with her father and their mother. But she went to her own mother's grave and sat beneath the hazel tree and wept and cried out:
Tree o' mine, O tree o' me,
With my tears I've watered thee;
Make me a lady fair to see,
Dress me as splendid as can be... [The Cinder Maid;Europe; Joseph Jacobs]

continuing the Cinderella Syndrome or What every girl should have; well!!! at least once in her lifetime, anyways...in haiku/haibun style throughout the month of August; e-mail me or add your contributions at comments; to be included in the day's post
