Florescence
undyed
drops drench dirt
estivating
florets flush
lush
leafage emerge
dust
does cherish
every
bloom of mirth
Roadside haiku
disentangling
the
miracle
bound to a thread
a
balloon seller
stride
shorter than breath
the
labourer returns home
his
burdened arms droop
Burnt-out
without
an outlet
withers
worth
inertia
inhibits
breaking
bonds
pessimistic
procrastination
wax, wane, repeat
a
lone Sisiphus
knocking
out
knocked
by
a
boulder of shadow
a
fortnightly affair
Ecliptic kiss
Can't
we
say
an
eclipse
is
nothing but
a
shadow kiss of two lovelorn souls?
