Let your hike
Up the hill
Be vigorous
So your respite
Be deep, slow, and contemplative
The two fit together
As the warmth of the sun
And a flower opening petals do
Step forward, force yourself up
And rest, quietly at the deserved view

how could it be
this tall tree I pass often over the years
took so long to become my icon

The taste of her kiss
After she sipped a mint tea
A few moments in Egypt
Cleopatra is my nature she'd whispered
As the sun set on Cairo, in hazy memory
One of the best herbs(to have with chocolate at least) my fingers smell great after meeting this little patch!

the ocean spray startles the seagull

for all trekkers the cardinal rule—
don't piss from the mountain peak
nowhere to run from angry hikers

Naked against a fractured sky
Branches unclothed
Without camouflage
And all imperfections exposed
The inner most regions of all the trees are visible to all, naked, and exposed we see all of them now!

Angel of Death above
Choosing a target
And our roof barely repaired
Wings black against the sky
We watch it circle up high, engine buzzing
And no-one could ever image the feeling
The waiting
It's baiting
And this time, it plunges elsewhere
We breathe
Once more
Until the next—

bullet holes on the walls
reflect my memory, of 2022
with walking stick I limp by

Fool! said the pessimist
For one day reality will hit you
Right between the eyes!
Ah, but I
The optimist replied
Wait only for blues skies
My sweet maiden by my side
In meadows where wild flowers grow
Where I'll tickle her toes
With dandelions and daisies
And oh you fool!
she'll giggle so
