towering grasses
shine under the morning sun
my thoughts shine with them
oo0oo
yielding gracefully
to the blowing of strong winds
the pliant bamboo

standing underneath
the white towering windmills
the sense of smallness
oo0oo
gasps of amazement
as the group reaches the shore
imposing windmills
oo0oo
beyond the windmills
white clouds
blanketing the sky
the soul rejoices

beauty they exude
comfort in lonesome moments
plants in my garden

to each its own charm
colors so fresh and vibrant
my ornamentals

early morning shot
sun-kissed avocado leaves
green turning golden

rays of morning sun
caressing branches and leaves
drama of colors

highway lights sparkle
in the darkness of the night
a pleasant drive home
oo0oo
the stars have come down
to comfort night travelers
sparkling highway lights

along the hillside
a canopied long stairway
to a small heaven
oo0oo
after the long climb
a rewarding view awaits
famed chocolate hills

the stillness of night
broken by exploding lights
fireworks in the air
oo0oo
like giant urchins
fireworks light up the night sky
a celebration

moment to capture
hovering over a leaf
a pink dragonfly
oo0oo
my morning delight
dragonfly in the garden
dressed in girly pink

wishing on the moon
not a shooting star in sight
heart still finds solace
oo0oo
if not for the moon
peeping thru twigs and pale leaves
the sky...so gloomy

his hand holding hers
a ring into her finger
and the leaves rustle
oo0oo
the glow in her face
as her two eyes meet his own
marriage proposal

stopping on red light
a good chance to appreciate
towering bookshelves
oo0oo
catching a noon flight
heart beats faster than normal
usual traffic woes

seen from a distance
pretty ribbons converging
columns of tulips
oo0oo
a feast of colors
blending before my two eyes
tulips everywhere
Wednesday, July 17, 2013
cloud-covered mountains
smelling the scent in the air
fragrance of tulips
oo0oo
a blissful fragrance
floating through the open field
tulips in full bloom
Tuesday, July 16, 2013
raindrops on green leaves
sparkle not without the sun
a cloudy morning
oo0oo
morning evidence
of rain falling through the night
slippery walkways

five decades gone by
faces beaming with shy smiles
a sweet memory

decades-old photo
treasured moments of teen life
a sweet reminder

black against orange
a lovely fire in the sky
the sun just rising
oo0oo
vibrant sounds of birds
a deep orange horizon
prelude to morning

fresh from paradise
birds amidst silver and gold
ambiance enhancer
oo0oo
flowers and colors
lure me to buffet table
even after lunch
Thursday, July 11, 2013
a serene morning
a more serene scenery
refuge of lost souls
oo0oo
mountain-framed water
snow white clouds on a blue sky
heart and mind at peace
Wednesday, July 10, 2013
the weight too heavy
small lemon branches bow down
humble submission
oo0oo
just a few weeks more
the taste of fresh lemonade
cooling down parched throats

a swinging hammock
heat of midday sun
striking the colored rooftops
a hammock swinging
oo0oo
sunny mid morning
a lady on a hammock
her eyes on the sky

solace in trees
from the open field
to the canopy of trees
empty chair waiting
oo0oo
escaping the crowd
granny opts to find solace
trees for company

remembering yesterday
scene of rolling hills
a flashback to my childhood
coconut frond rides
oo0oo
a stretch of lush green
beyond the limit of sight
old dream remembered

unseeing eyes
hundred pairs of eyes
unseeing yet purposeful
freshens up the wall
oo0oo
their eyes meet my own
silent communication
and the soft wind blows

ducks on parade
beautiful morning
jogging along a river
with ducks on parade
oo0oo
lovely broken line
swimming family of ducks
accents a river

usual morning walk
glistening bermuda grass
kissed by the sun's rays
oo0oo
morning breeze blowing
smoke from fire across the street
dancing in the air
Wednesday, July 3, 2013
still early morning
petalled bowls wait for the sun
full radiant smiles soon
oo0oo
four demure ladies
wait for the love of their lives
golden sun to shine
